2000 Honda Accord

Since 1976, the Accord has been a household name. By the turn of the century, the 2000 Honda Accord, midway during the car’s sixth generation, was an industry standard. There are great reasons why so many years after its introduction, the 2000 Honda Accord remained a top-selling used car. However, at the decade mark the vehicle is beginning to show its age.

Consumers in the market for a used Accord will likely want to focus their attention on the seventh (2003-2007) and eighth (2008-present) generations. Nevertheless, the 2000 Honda Accord includes most modern safety features, so if you find one with limited mileage, then it is still worthy of your consideration. Consumers should also be aware that there are stark differences between the American, European and Japanese versions of the car. The information presented here concerns the North American editions.

The 2000 Honda Accord is available in both coupe and sedan body styles. Prior to the sixth generation, Accord coupes were essentially 2-door sedans. However, the coupes available in this generation and beyond were substantially different from the sedans, and they possessed many exclusive features. These exclusive features included special wheels, rear taillights, front fascia and other body panels.

Honda offered the 2000 sedan in the DX, LX, EX and EX V6 trim levels, and they offered the 2000 coupe in the LX, EX and EX-V6 trims. Despite being a “base” package, the DX was nicely equipped. It included standard features such as air-conditioning and a basic CD audio system. Under the hood, the DX included the standard 2.3L I4, which produces 135 horsepower. The LX and EX models included the 2.3L I4 VTEC that produce 150 horsepower. The 5-speed manual transmission was standard, but there was an optional 4-speed automatic. The V6 models included the 3.0L SOHC VTEC that generates 200 horsepower.
