[Pics] Need Help on buying 4G Accord..
Hello. Everyone.
I been looking for Frost White 4G Accord EX sedan but it is really hard to find in Seoul, Korea. Gurrrrr~~~~~
I need some input on Black 1993 Accord 10th Anniversary Sedan.
Here is some detail about the car.
- Automatic
- Sunroof (I think its aftermaket one - is it safe?)
- ABS (10th Anniversary version Standard??)
- 160,000 miles
- Double Din Stereo / CD - Clarion
- Tinted windows
Here is the link to dealer homepage..
http://carmoa.com/cars_info/carinfo_...&m_day=&page=1
You can click on the picture to see bigger pictures..
As I was looking at the pictures...
- need new front tires.
- need new floor carpet.
- need to clean the engine bay
- need brake fluid change.. (looks really low and fluid color is dark)
Here is the bottom line.
93 Accord EX usually priced around $8,500 to $9,000 in Korea..
and asking price of this car is $8,000 I can bring it down to $7,000 to $7,500...
After I test drive the car and everything is in good condition ... Should I buy it?? Or countinue looking for White Accord EX which I really want??
Any input will be great.. Thank you.
If I buy the car, first thing I want OEM rear spoiler / AEM short ram intake.. Make the car clean as possible..

seems pretty nice to me....i think that the sunroof is factory on that model, but im not positive. if it is an aftermarket safety all depends on the installer.
as far as should you get it..well....you need to picture yourself driving it well into the future cause it seems at the prices as they are there you will have it for some time.

Looks like it's in very good condition. Just a few items of business:
Sunroof is factory
ABS is also standard on the EX, as is the airbag.
This is the special LX, and while the features such as ABS/sunroof/airbag are equal to the EX, I think (not certain) that it will have an LX engine -- no 4-2-1 header, less horsepower. So if those little things don't matter to you, then I would consider buying it -- if you really like it. But if you'll be bemoaning the fact that you didn't get exactly what you wanted, then wait.

I still have some more questions.
Far as I know that 10th Anniversary Accord didn't come with moonroof.. Is it true?
Can anyone tell me it is factory moonroof? If it is.. I am really thinkig about getting it..
About the header... I am going get DC header so that it doesn't really matter to me..
More input will be great.. Thank you very much..

the 10th anaversary did NOT have a factory moonroof... only EX and SE models. ABS was standard though... and every other LX feature.
It is the LX exhaust, so the car has 125hp.
The CD player looks like its just sitting in the dash... needs some sort of dash kit. Also looks like there is windshield washer lights... correct me if i'm wrong, but those are definatly not stock washers on there. Those corny seat covers, steering wheel cover and floor mats all have to go... get some nice stock floor mats!
Looks to be a decent car... just needs a good, thorough cleaning!
The only thing i'd worry about with the sunroof is if it leaks at all.

h: I thought my friend had a moonroof on his, but he may not (I know it wouldn't be aftermarket with him) At least my other facts were actual facts.

Thank you for the replies. Due to it doesn't have factory moonroof and high mileage.. So I decide to look in to another Accord.
I want Frost White Accord, but this time its black 1991 Accord EX sedan with auto.
It has abut 86,000 km .. (stock)
Any input will be great.. H-A members are really great!! Thank you.
Here is the pics.

Hummm..
Back to where I started.. 
I just got a mail from the used car dealer and
told me that car is in bad condition.. (engine/trans) so
he would not sell the car.
I will continue looking for another 4G Accord... Thanks.
Hopefully Frost White Accord EX sedan..
