Perhaps is you gave some info on transmission, equipment, etc......

My opinion is the 4 cyl in the Accord is too small an engine anyway. I base
this on several test drives and I bought the V6-- plenty of power there...

Yes. Don't sit on the fence too long.

The 4 cylinder is all the power the Accord needs! Nothing beats
the Honda 4 for durability, simplicity, and economy.
I love my 98 on trips, I took her up to 120, in Montana, and
it still wanted to go further! She has 165,000 and still going strong.
It seems parts are more expensive for the v6.
Just my 2 cents with the 4cyl!

My opinion is exactly the opposite. My 2007 with the 4 has more than
ample power for any driving situation I can imagine. It will spin the
front tires on take-off and easily exceed 100 mph on an open highway.
How much power does one need?

Maybe if you have to haul around several 200 pound relatives.... but
even then I think the 4 would be adequate.

As to the original question, it seems like a good price but without
more information about equipment we can't tell.

Agreed. We just got a 2007 SE 4 cyl. automatic last week and I have to
remind myself to take it easy on the gas pedal. As you said, how much power
does one need?

Heh, heh-- but it took you 15 minutes to get it up to 120....and it was
howling like banshee when it got there...and panting like a blue tick hound
on a south Georgia hunt when you backed her down ;-)

Absolutely dead wrong. I have an 2006 I4 Coupe and find it has plenty of
power to get on the highway and cruise at whatever speed you want. My
previous car was a 200 hp Prelude -- to give you some perspective.

YOU obviously don't have an Accord!! You probably had one of those "Iron
Duke " four,
or one of those Ford Pintos. I would not say it if I didn't do it! I
didn't need any smart crap
from someone that hasn't dicovered Honda engine yet. I found out back in
1979, withe the
Honda CVCC 53 hp Civic, that they had some better than the Vega!
