Accord Wagons

[Lukey]

Was looking around on the net and seen some for sale, showed dad and he said that the wagons are shitboxes as they were made in america, can anyone shed some light?

[Jarkz]

What model/year Accord wagon are you referring to?

[Lukey]

Where manufactured in japan to my knowledge.

Even if it's is US manufactured theres no reason to say it's not a good car.

Honda>Acura.

[Lukey]

Yea that looks the same.

[Jarkz]

Is the Aerodeck your looking at in OZ or Where?

[Lukey]

Yea, over in WA.

There is no reason to worry about the build quality, i know a few accord members in the USA that own aerodeck and have no problem with build quality. The engine and transmission are the same as the sedan that we have here so there is no reason to worry about replacement if thats your main concern.

[FAT VTI]

there a reason your after a wagon and not a sedan?

aerodeck....the only places i see them is my local wrecker lol, probably becoz they are trolleys for mums doing the shopping.
only joking mate.
Honda build quality is top notch as always.

Found this 95 model for 14k on Carsales.For that price better off with a wrx wagon.

14 grand is ridiculous.

[SiReal]

it should be ~ 7 to 8 k. Unless the accord above has a gold plated engine.

[Lukey]

I was looking at this one.

would probably cost to much to get it over to vic though.

thanks clint :thumbsup:

lukey, curious to know why you want the wagon vs sedan? boot space is a bonus i guess but the rarity will just make your job 10x harder thats all.

considred an odyssey?

I was maybe thinking of buying an accord, 94-97 model, asked dad about the wagon and he said hes friends with someone who used to sell them and his friend said he had nothing but problems with them.

im not made of money, cant afford an ody. Just like the look of wagons, was curious, would exterior and interior parts be that much harder to find for a wagon?

Id be getting a Nissan Stagera over any rex wagon imo.

But get an Aerodeck dude... they look better than both ^ cars when done right .

You can get it shipped for around $600ish I think if I'm not mistaken. My previous old school stroker BMW was delivered from Perth using TNT before around that ballpark. I would suggest to be patient and keep looking and buy car available in your state unless if it is one of the rarest.

Good luck!

there isnt THAT much difference between the sedan and wagon mate.
In all honesty I do not think you would have too much of a problem. theres a wreckor in syd i go to who has 3 of them...
Many parts would be interchangeable with the sedan, so Parts would not be a problem mate.

as for your dads mate having problems its a story dude. Im sure we all know somebody who tells us a story of how their cars keep ****ing up, Me personally i do not know the build quality of a 94-97 aerodeck, but I own a 94 accord and Its build quality is excellent (besides the ****wit who had the car before me).

Its completely up to you, they can look pretty good as seen in some above pics, just need to compare whether you really want the wagon over the sedan, I would love to see a wagon on the road with a bit of modification, something completely different and they can look sexy without TOO much effort.

Yeah, thats a reason why I'm wanting one, there isnt many. I think there might actually be one around my town, should offer the dude lol.

[Nepolian]

Ive had one for the last three years and apart from the wear and tear issues you'd have with a almost 13 year old car. It has been very good.

On the VIN clearly states that it is made in AMERICA! I think all the wagons were!

Family friends have a sedan CD....cant really tell the diff. Everything appears to be the same!

[Riviera]

from that back door forward theres no difference... the wagon is sex but
they coulda fixed the rear window issue lol it not going all the way down
is such a restriction for passengers to yell at mates in other cars hahaha
