Color Code – G78P – (Sherwood Green Pearl)
Freshly arrived in our inventory is a 5th generation 1996 Honda Accord Wagon SiR (CF2) showing 68,381 verified miles. Produced for roughly one year from late 1996 through 1997, this top tier trim was built at Honda Marysville plant in Ohio and exported exclusively to Japan. Because it was never offered for sale in North America or outside the Japanese market, this JDM spec wagon is a rare sight on US soil. Finished in factory Sherwood Green Pearl (G78P), it brings together that classic 90s Honda look with real wagon practicality and plenty of enthusiast appeal.
Under the hood is the factory 2.2L H22A DOHC VTEC inline four cylinder engine, mated to a four speed automatic transmission. Power is sent to the front wheels, delivering that iconic VTEC powerband for spirited drives while remaining refined and easy to manage for daily commuting or highway cruising. Known across the Honda community for its bulletproof reliability and long term durability, this powerhouse provides dependable performance, smooth operation, and a comfortable ride throughout.
Inside, the cabin is well preserved, featuring durable grey cloth upholstery with patterned seat inserts and bolsters that are still firm and well intact. OEM floor mats are fitted in both the front and back. The dashboard remains clean and free of major damage, accented by factory woodgrain trim around the center console. Convenience features include power windows, power locks, power folding and adjusting mirrors, a tilt steering wheel, front and rear cupholders, tinted windows, and a power sunroof. We wanted to note that the climate control system is currently inoperable, and we have reflected this in our listing price. The rear seats fold flat to expand the large, fully carpeted cargo area, complete with pass-through trunk access and the original retractable privacy cover.
The exterior is finished in factory Sherwood Green Pearl (G78P). The paint presents well overall, though we wanted to note some minor imperfections including light scratches, scuffs, and areas of clear coat fade. Up front, it features integrated fog lights and an OEM style front lip for a sportier look. The side profile is fitted with slim window visors, factory rear privacy glass, and sits on 5-spoke Schneider wheels. This setup gives the wagon a period correct stance that really suits the body style. Around back, the tailgate retains its factory Accord SiR badging to complete the look.
Between its iconic factory styling, rare CF2 SiR spec, and straightforward usability, this Accord wagon stands out. It carries a few minor flaws expected of its era, but retains all the character that makes imported ’90s Hondas so desirable. It offers a very accessible entry point into owning an exclusive JDM model never offered on American shores.
