I like this series....the Odyssey did have VTEC and I think there's a special league where they only race Odyssey vans. The J series V6s are very powerful for what they are and are still used in Hondas and Acuras today. People are starting to tune these engines as well. Boosted boys had swapped an H22 prelude engine into an older Odyssey. The Odyssey was swapped to manual on the floor instead of Auto on the tree and boosted to make lots of power. I guess EG hatches can't be found under 5K and I think people are sleeping on the EJ1 coupes ( black civics from The Fast and the Furious).

I've had 7 Hondas of all types. My 1997 Prelude is by the far the one I've enjoyed most, and around here in the Midwest, is usually the only of its kind in a parking lot or meet. The H22 torque and howl is fantastic.

bro thank you! as a high schooler who recently fell in love with cars, im just trying to save up for any toyota or honda, so this video really helped! Keep up the good work!!

Hello, I see you’ve been growing a lot since you started making shorts and more videos for cheap, fun, and reliable cars. Best of luck for 50k!

First Gen CRV hands down one of the most slept on projects, you can throw a b16 or b18 head on the b20 block and can get some good power out of it. there's surprisingly a lot of good parts for them and also the share the same parts as the civic (EM,EK) since they are brother and sisters and share the same chassis.

I've been looking for daily/beater for the winter so this vid helps a lot. I also just bought a 04 tsx manual for 3k love it so much 😍

You’re right, preludes are so slept on! Also PLEASE do a video on the odyssey! My parents own an 08 and it’s great. Might get it soon too since they’re getting a new car. I’m pretty sure the 3.5L V6 has VTEC also

Those 8th Gen Civics are great I have a 2009 EX that has given me no major issues I just do regular maintenance. I’ve spent some of the best moments of my life in that car and I want to keep it as my daily and get a 350Z as a weekend car!

Always much love from Jamaica fam, always giving us the shout out.

got a jdm integra gsr recently and paid $8000 for it, these old hondas are super rare nowadays 😢😢

Bought me a 1996 Honda prelude vtec SR-v for $600 two years ago and I absolutely love it. My dad an I fully rebuilt the motor not that long ago and in slowly but surely making it look better then brand new

*breathes a sigh of relief that wagovans weren't mentioned* Love the videos man, you're really pumping out consistent quality content!

Hey man love your vids going trough some tough times and when ever you come out with a new vid it cheers me up keep up the good work

i have a honda accord cl9 2003 and i love it, 190hp not that fast but its so enjoyable, sounds incredible, lot of space inside the car, 4 doors, 1.400kg not bad and it looks awesome with 18 19 wheels coilovers and a bodykit.

I love my cb7. Just swapped in a jdm h22a. Definitely one of the most overlooked Hondas.

I own a 1993 Honda Prelude S (F22a1 5 speed) that I bought on Marketplace for $1200. In total I wanna say I put around a few hundred into it so overall its just under or at $2000. It has taken me from Albuquerque, New Mexico to San Antonio, Texas TWICE, thats 750 miles one way, 1500 miles in total. It never game me any issues whatsoever, was a solid drive the entire time. I will say the Prelude is an underappreciated reliable car

Do a list of the best Fords ma!! I got a 08 Fusion, pretty old but it's a nice V6 that does me right against my buddys 15 Si... if I got a fresh oil change lol. Love the videos Mark keep it up!!!!

As a CB7 owner this is very true, i bought mine with the original motor but with the spice from the last owner, which ended up causing everything to go down hill, talking motor all the way to fend rust and missing wires. But i still love it and working on it because its not a common car to see at meets, ive brought it to meets where people mistakenly think its a s13 because they have similar body work and the cool 90s seatbelts

Hel yes king, CB7 Accord definitely belongs on this list. Bought mine for $750. Love that car.

We used to have a 93 cb7 when I was younger and not into cars yet, I loved that accord, with the manual transmission it just kept going, had some vibrations and rattles and a minor oil leak and a hole in the muffler, you could hear it half a mile away, 😂 but sold it at over 300,000 miles for $700 to some guy who could really use it. The engine bays are so cramped though compare to other Hondas it’s insane, replacing the alternator was a knuckle buster

I own a tsx I think it's the best body design honda did in the mid 2000s

Ayyyy CB7 love! Engine swap is key with the used project ones. H22 swap can be done for about $4k if you don't do it yourself, if you do it yourself it's about $2k. Don't use the old tranny upgrade or it'll be destroyed by the new engine

I got my TSX for 6k with a 6 speed manual because I couldn't find an rsx type s within my budget and its such a fun car I love it

ur vids getting better man

I got an 04 oddessey in really good condition from my aunt and it’s an absolute joy to drive around. I love my minivan and I’m 19 so No kids just homies

I figured EG was gunna be ur #1. I love type S's got one 10 years ago after my 1st car integra. Now I've got a Veloster N so damn fun. I feel like 8th gen SIs are always less then rsx type S's tho. If you find either one for 5kish in New England lmk ill buy it n hook you up. Gotta park the VN soon. Keep making banger vids bro

Love the series bro

Love this series! Do more!! Haha

loved the video just subscribed! also wanted to give some feedback since i think these vids could go far, I think if you fixed some of the inconsistencies of information like saying "i think" or "maybe, not sure" and also the mistakes that were visually accounted for (editing) instead of reading that part again, it would be very informative. Just being able to confidently say every word makes the video really effective and high quality. keep up the great content!

Yes, finally somebody talking about tsx (accord mk7 in Europe)

omg I drive a 94' accord right now, its my first car and I love it, its almost completely stock except a cold air intake and I get 40 to the gallon on a good day 30 is the absolute lowest I have seen it get. Honestly can recommend old accords.

I’ve had 5 Honda 1. 1990 Acura Integra 2. 1999 Honda Hatchback (B16 vtec) 3. 1994 Honda del sol 4. 1995 Honda Civic coupe (B20) 5. 1997 Honda prelude (H23 vtec) I agree with you Jordan my 1997 Honda Prelude is my personal favorite I got a H23 in it it’s great I get compliments all the time with clean title and 164,000 miles on it. But I do miss my 99 hatchback tho lol next will be eg hatchback.

I have a 09 Honda Civic EX and it’s a blast to drive

Damn is that Skyrim music in the background? Really informative video my dude. 👍

Have you ever looked into the acura rl? they came with an awd option and I think they are super underated and look amazing

Thank you so much for making the cl9 look good

If the CR-V looks fun, give the 1st gen honda pilot a shot. It's super reliable and has a beautiful J35 V6 with 240Hp @5400rpm. The cherry on top is the vtec that comes with it, and if you want more spice, you can throw in a supercharger for extra fun with straight pipes or custom exhaust.

got my 8th gen for 5k in march , great video

Most of these especially older ones are pretty rare for under 5k if you want one that is reliable and not beat up, honda are gaining popularity very fast because miatas have gotten too expensive

As a Honda fan boy I love this video 😂

Nice video and nice Skyrim Music

I got a 2009 accord sedan exl v6 for 6,500 with only 100,000 miles with 271 hp , by far my favorite car I’ve owned

Loved the vid bro do bmw next ?!

U need to continue this series, I wanna see some Nissans

I loved my 07 r18 Civic. Not fast, but still really fun with the manual. Unfortunately a drunk lady smashed into it in the parking lot while I was at work 2 weeks ago so I have to look for a new car now unfortunately.

Thank you this means a lot

I have a 2nd gen odyssey, its great and can't wait to manual swap it one day

this list is awesome I have had an 92 eg civic hatch, 91 accord exr, and 93 prelude sr loved all them more recently had a 7th gen civic and now and drive an 8th gen civic ..sometimes I wonder what it it is like to drive a toyota lol

CL9 CL7/TSX Is one of the best cars ive ever owned and regret on sell. I love the chassis, it looks timeless and amazing. Ive owned a 05 accord type s / euro body kit, and it aged really well, still got compliments and how clean it is despite the age. The only hate i have for the car is how heavy it is. You can feel how heavy it is when youre max throttle and feel it struggling. Regardless, good looks, just not a performance car you might be thinking of.

I love my accord 😤 I got the 2.3 not a power house but i love it

I like the series bro

Hey mark video idea cool Kia cars bc there’s being slept on talk about that new Kia stinger 😅or the 2010 Kia forte coupe

My neighbor just hit me and totaled my ‘97 crv like three weeks ago :( They are definitely super reliable when taken care of, my engine just hit 270k only issue was the transmission which I had replaced around 260ish, but those old auto transmissions are known to be weak especially with age. Thinking back I wish I swapped it for manual… maybe I’ll try and find manual first gen soon. I already miss my automatic :(( I gotta correct you on the engine though, the second gens do have K series (k20/k24), but the first gens are B series (b20b/z) so the second gens are definitely a little stronger engine wise. The b20 is still very solid when taken care of, but I would still pick k series over it any day tuning wise. TLDR Hondas are tanks

My first car was a cb7 accord. Great cars

I ised to own a modified 93 Del Sol Si. Fun car with decent practicality and eqsy to maintain. I would however recommend being serious about chassis stiffening.

Big W

men you are a good guy, so friendly

The h22 in the prelude is one of the most ledgendary honda motor ever made, right behinf the k20

Pre-facelift (amber top not red top taillights) 4th gens are better and they're pretty ok on the track if you get a coupe. not fast but mid with pax if you're an ok driver. fair amount of bodyroll tho

INFINITI !!

Hey mark, since you provided for the Honda's. Could you do this on Toyota's?

this is dope cuz i drive an 2008 8th gen fa5 civic si and a 1998 ej6 civic coupe

the ek is good if you 1: want a cheap shitbox or 2: you want an insanely budget friendly track car.

Please make this a series

BTW ek ftw 👌🏽

Love the Skyrim music🙏🤣🤣🤣

My parents have a 2010 odyssey it does have a 3.5 L v6 and vtec that thing has over 250k miles and runs great I had a 06 tsx I got back in 2019 and it was very reliable!!! But when I hit 200k I had to replace the rack and pinion and starter other than that bulletproof it had 224k miles and still ran fantastic till I traded it for a 11 si fa5 bone stock it’s been over a year not one single mechanical issue so far Hondas are great

You should do toyota next🔥🔥✌️✌️

try also look into the asian side on honda odyssey rb1 jdm version... it runs on a k24a 5 speed a/t but with a +/- shifter too!

Also question 🙋🏽‍♂️... is the Base Rsx worth getting ?

Just FYI the J series V6 (used in both the V6 models for the 7th gen accord and the odyssey, albeit different engines within the series) actually are equipped with VTEC. Also if you wanna buy a honda with a V6 do some research on VCM and you'll thank me later.

Mark, for most of the cars you have shown, people will say: Hey, if you can get me one for under 5k I will take two. 😄 And most of the cars you have shown are the ones that the Car Wizard (another KZfaq channel) says that they are unreliable because of transmission problems. Anyway, nice idea and series.

I just picked up an 06' si for $4500. Its got 177k miles but its in great shape! just gotta hunt.

Look into a 2004 Honda Accord sedan ex 3.0 I have one atm and it’s the coolest car for a young guy

You can find some 8th Gen Si’s under 5k but they’ll probably have bad paint fade or higher mileage. Just keep looking on marketplace bois. Love my FA5

Love my dc5

CB7 accords have the 2.2l F22A1/A6 as well

they’re gonna be 10k after this video

Need that Nissan list

Lexus & Nissan Top 10!

What app/website do you find these on?

I dont want to sound like one of those guys that go, "where's this one, where's that one." I own the 7th gen civic and have started noticing their prices starting to increase a bit, but there's quite a lot of aftermarket for them. Especially with the d17a2 motor es2/em2. They are still a budget version of the ep3 in a sense too lol

The Skyrim music at the beginning 😭

Kinda surprised the Acura TL didn’t make this list

Comment for the algorithm, I’m takin notes rn

2nd Generation Acura TL. Try and find a Type-S, makes 270 Hp stock. J-series V6 with V-TEC, FWD. $3k

I bought an accord cl9 typeS in Europe 2 years ago with 3.8k euros, very cheap for a car in great shape 99% stock

The top two are my cars! Lol but mines the "EJ" coupe EK. And my Honda has been turned full racecar. And is never going to be someone else's problem. Just mine! And I lost my tsx last year to my first crash.. fresh paint job and wheels and tires when it happened..

K series for days

Had me stuck on that Odessy instructional video

thoughts on the 2011 honda civic ex?

acura MDX and Acura TL also great and i got both for under or at $5000

5th gen preludes are slept on

Notification squad!

He didn’t mention that the 7th gen accord also come with a k24, the j series v6 that they can also come with isn’t as easy to tune

You guys reccomend a vw golf for a first cat older models the one that go for 5k under

W video

whats the song you have playing in the backround

Thanks for starting with my fav.. 🤙 then trucks! I need a truck! 🤣

the skyrim music in the background 🤌
