Will a new Honda Accord be as reliable as a 1997 Honda Accord?

My dad has had Honda Accords since 1977. Now his 1997 Accord has over 350,000 miles on it and he wants to buy a new one but he's nervous that a new one won't be as reliable as his old ones.

Since no one has 350k miles on a '15 Accord, obviously there's no statistical data. They're not building them any worse than they used to, but the machinery and the attendant electronics are a lot more complicated today, so if he's buying with the idea of keeping it until 2033, he's probably going to be disappointed.

Probably not. Honda's glory days of the 90s are long over and most of Honda's lineup has gone downhill, including the Civic and the Accord.
