Default How rare is the 1993 10th Anniversary Edition Accord?

Someone gifted me a 10th Anniversary Accord a few months ago. Based on limited research that I have conducted, it seems this model is fairly hard to find now. Is this true? Anyone know how many were produced? Does it have more potential value than the garden variety Accords of that period?

I'd say they are rare, however I wouldn't expect to get much more than just a regular Accord of that year for it.

What is special? The Interior?

Show us a couple of pictures of the outside and the inside...

The only real differences from what I can gather is that the 10th Anniversary Edition, offered only in 1993, is bascially an LX model in terms of appearance and equipment, but it had some options that originated from the EX model. It was only offered in three colors (white, black and green) and the side moldings and trim were all body colored. It also had 15" alloys from the EX coupe, 4-wheel disk brakes with ABS and standard automatic. I got this from Wikipedia. There may be more differences, but this is what I found.

Here's a URL with some pics:

I do not understand 10th year anniversary being 1 1993 vehicle being produced and sold in USA. Is this correct year?, because Honda of America Manufacturing’s first Honda rolled off Marysville Ohio line on November 1, 1982, a four door Accord with number USA 001, which would make 1992 as 10th USA Anniversary year, followed by 2002 as 20th, and 2012 as 30th. A few simple cosmetic additions/deletions/ and/or changes does not make a real anniversary vehicle. At least they should get year correct. Regards

since the car was manufactured in Novenber of 1982, it would have been sold as a 1983 model. thats how the auto industry works. so the 10th Anniversary Edition was in 1993. normally the next model year of a car is out by the middle of that year (i.e. '10 Accord hits dealers in July of '09).

I have a 93 Honda Accord SE, 10 year Anniversary edition, and it is Champagne colored, so obviously Wikipedia is wrong again....lol.

Wikipedia is wrong a lot... A LOT.

Yeah, wouldn't expect it to be worth anything more than a similar Accord... you could try running it through NADA or Kelly Blue Book vs. a standard 93 with the same options just to see if there is a value difference.

maybe in a few decades it might be worth a bit more that a regular accord....
