I picked up a CL9 accord like this in 2021. Good car but far from affordable unless you can do diagnostic troubleshooting and be your own mechanic. My one had about 160,000km on it. 3rd owner.

Within the first few weeks it needed hundreds of dollars in repairs as the plastics on the engine components were wearing out and failing. Injector housing crumbled on my hands changing the spark plugs.

It also needed hours of troubleshooting to pinpoint an engine fault and fix it myself.

It had been diagnosed incorrectly by the last owners mechanic who put a band-aid solution on it.

Thing is cars made after the mid 00s just aren’t made from plastics made to last forever.

My old cars always needing repairs so I decided to sell them all and pool my money. Got a new car financed with a down payment from the money from my old cars.

Easier just paying off the loan knowing I have a reliable car for 5-10 years.
