We have owned this car for 7 years and I have had to replace almost every major part except the motor. Trany 128,000 miles, starter, alternator, axles, 02 sensors, seats are torn etc. This is the worst car that I have ever owned. if Acura is one of the best car lines in the world I would hate to see the worst. would never buy an Acura because this was such a lemon.
Never owned a better car!!!

I absolutely love this car!!! I bought it from my brother who beat the tar out of it and she still runs and moves like a champ after 15 years and 365,000 miles. Back seat is a tad small for the car seat, and cup holder would be a plus... But all things considered, I plan on dropping a new engine sometime within the next year just for the sheer joy of driving it.
None better for the price

A great achievement in engineering. At the time of release, the Vigor just didn't attract a big enough audience to keep up the pace with the lexus 300 series (which wasnt built as well as the Vigor at the time). This car has the total package for the mula, and still outperforms many modern sedans. I've driven many cars, and this design is very impressive. They are quickly turning into classic collecter items all over. Classic lines, fun to drive, and reliable even over 200k. Test drive a Vigor if you ever spot one for sale. If it doesn't impress you, then it hasn't been maintained well. I will have this car until they don't make parts for it anymore!
Top Class quality for medium price.

Acura Vigor, the name might sound too strong, but pull back the seat, put the trans in D4 and raise the gas slowly, you will feel the difference which you cant experience in a new mitsubishi eclipse(e.g). Honda has done a great job on this car, I tested it and it ran 0-60 in 8secs where consumer guide said 8.8secs(idiots). Anyways, this is a car that you will enjoy in every aspect, with 8 channel surround sound(4tweeters and 4speakers) if u can spend u can set-up 8 speakers along with a sub and make the worlds best sound system or upgrade 2-way speakers in the front and 3-way speakers in the back panel with a 10inch sub in the trunk as I did and ENJOY! For $4000, i bought a BMW M3 kicker lol
The Acura Vigor a perfect car

This Vigor is the best car I have ever owned. I plan on spending $3000 and getting the little bit of rust and one rear door replaced. The body does not need to be repainted. I have had to do minor repairs. The mechanics who work on this car always rave about the Acuras. I work for an American car manufacturer and wonder why they continue to purchase the very cheapest componenets on the market. The Japanese auto industry puts together a well designed vehicle with great components thus insuring years of reliability. Cars and trucks are a liability. I plan on purchasing used Japanese vehicles from here on out. Or, until the American car Co's wake up from their delusion.
Acura Vigor, sporty sedan

I bought my Vigor because it was an
Acura (I've dealt with 4 honda/acuras
in the past, and know that they are
very reliable), it was a stylish
design, and it was lady-owned with many
reciepts. The g25a inline 5 cylinder
is great! It's a little more of a high
reving car (peak HP is at 6500 rpms),
but the engine is soooo smooth. I
added a RActive filter and I can feel
more bottom end torque, better top
speed, and the best part, a mean, deep
throttle growl. DONT DOUBT THE I5, GET
A VIGOR, IT WONT DO YOU WRONG!
Excellent car

This car is awesome! I had to find a
vehicle to drive back and forth to
work, my Xterra gets terrible gas
milage! The only improvement I would
suggest is cup holders. This car has
none.

This is the best car I've owned. Not
a single problem, and I now have over
87,000 miles. Extremely comfortable
and very attractive.
With a lot of Vigor!

Excellent value. 6 cylinder
performance with the economy and maint
of a 4 cylinder. Very reliable.
Dealer parts are expensive. The auto
trans is as smooth as anything on the
planet.
still a great car after 9 years

Through my driving years I've owned 2
brand new Ford products, a new
Chrysler and a new GM. No car has ever
performed as reliably as this one.
After 115,000 miles my 16 year old is
getting it and I'm getting a new one.
Acura makes great products that last.
Not one single thing has broken or has
needed to be replaced outside of
normal things ie. brakes etc. This is
is more than I can say for my husbands
Jaguar.

This is a very reliable car. Build
quality and reliability are excellent.
There's not one rattle or squeak on
this car. The engine performs well,
and has good acceleration and gets good
gas mileage. The car handles well,
though the ride is pretty rough at
times. The driving position can be
awkward for taller people and the back
seat is very cramped. There is plenty
of headroom in the front and back and
the trunk is very big. Like I said,
reliability has been nearly perfect,
the only drawback is that parts can be
somewhat expensive. Overall this car is
one of the best older model used cars
you can buy.
