A guy is considering this vehicle and I would like to see what things he may want to know and consider before seriously considering the purchase.

Thanks,

4 or 6 cylinder? The 6 had some tranny issues, I believe the 01 had their warranty extended to 6 years. The 4 I think had it's own share of problems.

The tranny issues are only on models with the V6. Honda has automatically extended the powertrain warranty to 100K anyway, I believe. Honda really needs to figure out how to make an automatic transmission capable of handling over 120 HP. I've already taken my 2004 coupe in for the current recall.

Yeah, to my knowledge the 4 bangers are solid. Honda should have stuck to what they know best:p

My friend's 99 Accord V6 Tranny just crapped out on him. A very expensive repair.
