Why You Should Get A "Used" Japanese V6 For Your Daily Driver

- If you are willing to spend the time looking, there are plenty of reliable used cars out there that still have a lot of life in them. Six cylinder Hondas & Toyotas will run forever if properly maintained, provide more performance than their four cylinder counterparts and aren’t too match more expensive to maintain.

Its hard to believe that the Accord your driving is 20 years old now…. It’s in such great condition, and doesn’t look it’s age.. you’ve made great points about purchasing a used accord of similar a model. 👍🏽
Thanks! I appreciate it. 💯💯
Lol, I did a lot of research on whether I should get a V6 before, and even after purchasing it, this video is still being recommended by youtube. I have been driving different kind of 4 cylinder manual for my entire life and just got a 2GR V6. The low-end torque is different from a regular 4-cylinder engine. The sad thing is they don't come with a manual transmission from the factory. Sometimes, I still jerk when starting to move the car because there is no clutch to control the startup lol
It’s a shame that the manual trans is practically gone 💯
im considering getting a 7th gen corolla and putting a 2GRFE in it.. I recently had a 1996 honda civic with a k series engine in specifictly the k24a2 very fun car but the risk of it getting stolen wasnt fun
@@twinturbo1995 yea those 90s civics are easy to steal. I had a 97 civic back from 99 to about 07, put 275k on it. Great car overall especially for back then.
Took me a little over a year to find the car i was looking for in excellent condition and maintained with all records!! Just bought my 2009 accord coupe V6 manual and worth paying a little more to me. I plan to keep it forever. Took so long to find because most of the cars i found were located up above the rust belt (Virginia or more North). Found mine garage kept its whole life in Texas!! Paid for it to get hauled to NC. Absolutely a blast to drive. Not even needing to aggressively drive and the acceleration and torque on the low end is amazing. My S2000 i had to really get the rpm's up above 5000 into VTEC before really feeling some torque. Only downfall I have with the accord is the little plastic valve in the clutch slave causes the clutch disengagment delay if youbwant to fast shift at high rpm's. That will end up cooking the clutch over time. So Im definitely going to remove that little plastic valve.. Other than that an amazing fun car to drive. Would recommend to anyone looking, if you find a good one buy it!!!
That’s great! Glad you found a good one! @ a manual too! 💯💯
I’m happy for you man! I’m looking for a 4th gen TL myself but they’re asking too much money for a decent shape type S manual transmission.
@@jonck146 cool cars! Hope you find a good deal soon!
@@PhilipTamorria thanks man! I won’t stop looking for one until I find one. I’m currently driving a 2005 mdx with 250k on it and this car helped get through the toughest years of college. I could always count on it to start and take me wherever in the harshest of winters of Wisconsin. I want a new daily driver for the other seasons of the year. But keeping this one until the wheels fall off 😂. They don’t make em like they used to.
I have a 2003 Toyota camry with a 1mz-fe I fucking love it
🤘🦾
I completely agree bro! We have a pre-owned V6 camry 06, V6 Accord 08, and V8 X5 03 back home and for the price, you get ALL THE OPTIONS for a fraction of the price. Yes they are reliable.... except for the german hahaha!
💯🙏 The X5 drives nice though! 🤘
I drive a 2012 Accord v6 MT coupe. Insane bang for your buck. Bought it for $10k in 2017 at 76k miles. It's up to 160k and I just dropped it off for its first major maintenance.
Great car, love that it’s a manual 💯
for honda V6, timing belt replacement unofficially is 10 year or 200k miles , whatever comes first. Years are more of a toll on belt than km. I drive a 2017 v6 accord with 160k miles, timing belt never changed.
True-on the older ones like mine it is 7 years or 100k. My car only has 76k miles but it’s on its 3rd timing belt since the car is 20 years old.Just like tires the age of the rubber is a big deal.
I own an 8th gen V6 Accord. It’s a great car. The only downside is the VCM system that made the engine sounded a bit rough each time when it deactivates it’s cylinders. And it’s suspension were set more towards the sporty side & felt a little stiff. Ironically I still love the 7th gen Accord V6 & probably would add that to my collection list. The engine felt more refine without the VCM & it’s suspension is rather comfy which I’m a fan of it!
🤘🙏
I daily drive a 2007 Honda Accord V6. Its the most powerful car ive had out of 4 cars. I had a timing belt snap because of shitty maintenance and it was cheap parts. I've only put 8500 miles on it in a year but it's been flawless except a parasitic draw from the anti theft system so i have to drive it daily or it goes dead in a week. Paint is flawless except one tiny spot on the driver side by the mirror where it's a spot of clear coat peel.
🤘🙏
I used to have a 2017 Accord V6, and I’ve always liked a V6 more than a I4 it had a pretty road bust acceleration and it was a torquey engine.
💯🤘
7th gen v6 have timing belt and way more transmission issues. Thats why I’d suggest 4 cylinder for this gen accord
Haven’t had any transmission issues yet fortunately 🙏🙏
I have 2016 v6 sedan. It's not exactly the car i wanted but i couldnt find a coupe and a v6
💯💯
I lost an opportunity to buy super clean accord coupe. I got scarred with the 6k price tag and 160K mileage.
As long as it’s well maintained 160 isn’t too bad for a Honda. You can get 250-300+
Are the 6 cylinders in the Subaru Outback any good?
No head gaskets and maintenance costs are high
Depends how it’s been maintained. Some have been known to have head gaskets go.
1998 Honda Accord Coupe V6 217k miles
Yes the infamous transmission slips, but I've put almost 60k miles on it. Bought the car for $700 with 160k miles. The J30 V6 has been dead reliable. Not sure I could go back to the old Pontiacs/Buicks after this. All I can say is I got my money's worth. Shame 98-02 V6 Accord's didn't get a manual option.
Nice! Agreed! They should definitely have made it available in a manual.
@@PhilipTamorria My next one will probably be an 03-07 model like yours. Might try to find the 6 speed, but I really like the J series in general.
I think the 6th gen (98-02) coupe might be my favorite in terms of styling though, especially with the spoiler.
@@ej1025 My brother had a 01 EX V6 years ago, great car. 💯💯 def look for a 6 speed
Just have to be carful with some years of the v6 j series Honda engines. Have personally experienced and seen many fail due to the VCM(variable cylinder management).
Disable it. vcm muzzler or ktuner
💯💯
@@792bnz Im well aware of them and had it on my car. Unfortunately due to the age more than often times the damage has already been done and the rear cylinders having heavy scoring.
@@whatsvtec I'm glad you know. Next time don't run up the miles, or make sure the v6 doesn't have high miles before you take precaution 😄🤷🏾♂️
@@792bnz for sure! I bought one off a family member knowing it had bad compression and was passing oil past the rings causing the spark plugs to foul after a few thousand miles. Popped a new spark plug in and traded to a dealer I dislike 😝
I remember when I had an electric remote control car and the rechargeable battery lost its charging ability overtime
Totally 💯
Golly I am hard headed...my current Mach 1 started life as a 4 banger stick shift escort for fuel economy. LOL! No vehicle I own is known for fuel economy 🤣🤣
All go baby! All go! 😂
@@PhilipTamorria 🤣🤣 smiles per gallon lol
@@lx2nv💯💯
Thats weird, I'm driving a used Korean v6... with two turbos for my daily driver. I'm driving a 2018 Kia Stinger GT2 and my weekend car is a 97 C5 Corvette.
Those are growing on me. Definitely a good bang for your buck sedan. 💯
@PhilipTamorria Its truly the best of all worlds at a good price. Comfortable commuter and fun street car packed into one.
Really? A v6 has more power then a 4 cylinder? Thanks captain obvious!
What made u want to comment an asshole comment for no reason
They have nothing better to do. Lol
@r3games1985 , So you must be the side-kick to Cotai. obvious, like Robin is to Batman? 😂
