I have had an '84 Accord LX for 9 months and have been getting quite
poor mileage. I was told that as the car breaks in, the mileage improves.
Well, I think 9 months (7,000 miles) is long enough. I am getting around
24 miles/gallon in the city. Does anyone else have the same problem? Does
the altitude matter (~5,200 ft.)? It is a 4-door sedan (if that matters).

Regarding a query I saw recently about the rumours about a high performance
Honda car, could they have been caused by the Accord Sei? It have a 2 litre
engine with fuel injection, but it sounded more like a luxury car (Real leather
seats, moon-roof, a/c, stereo ...).
