Clean diesel Accord
Hi;
I'm in the US. My 91 Civic is nearing the end of its life and I have my new car fund is reaching maturity. So, in a year or two I will be ready to go car shopping. The clean diesel Honda Accord is one of my top contenders. It hasn't been released in the US yet. I understand that it has been on the road outside of the US. I want to get a rough idea if it will be in my price range. Can anyone tell me how much they have paid for it in countries other than the US? Will it adapt well to biodiesel or used vegetable oil? Thanks Steve |

Honda has not spent the considerable sum required to adapt their diesels for American emissions laws. Oddly, Canada has much laxer emissions laws for diesels, but Honda still does not sell diesels here. Canadian market vehicles are usually importable to the US without problems. This is NOT true of vehicles from non-Canadian markets. See here for mo http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/import/ > I want to get a rough idea if it will be in > my price range. Chances are excellent you will find it impossible to import this vehicle due to EPA regulations. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
