So Far, So Good - 2008 Honda Accord
By Vcaserta - September 15 - 3:36 amBought my EX-L V-6 Coupe on 2/1/08 and then had to take a road trip. The interior is plenty spacious and once I mastered all the controls and settings, they were easy enough to operate. This is replacing a very nice 05 Altima SE V-6 sedan, which had a lot of space I didnt use. The Hondas steering is much nice than the Altima, the turning radius is much smaller. Handling is excellent; body roll almost imperceptible, braking nice and stout, acceleration strong and steady. The trunk is more than sufficient for duffel bags, groceries, etc, although I wish I had the optional cargo net as things do slide around a lot. I have had several people ask me what kind of car it is already!

Glad I made this choice - 2008 Honda Accord
By Vcaser - September 4 - 9:26 amI have this car in Nighthawk Black Pearl and it turns heads everywhere. People tend to think its a Lexus for some reason and are shocked to learn its an Accord. The fit and finish are wonderful, its obvious a lot of thought went into it. Its a "large" small car, too. My friends say the ride in the back is not bad at all.

Pretty Sweet - 2008 Honda Accord
By Merv - August 30 - 7:03 amI traded in my 01 Acura CLS and thought I might be moving down a notch. Other than a less powerful and somewhat noisier engine, the Honda is about as nice (a lot less money too). The styling of both the Accord and Altima coupe got my attention, but this car gives you more for the money. My experience with the dealership was positive as well.

Large car comfort with stick shift mpg - 2008 Honda Accord
By Mike L - August 3 - 1:43 amBought the 2008 Accord EX-L 5M after waiting 2 months for 2009 Sonata SE 5M (Hyundai would not confirm delivery). Im getting 33-34 mpg after 800 miles of ~80% highway driving (60-65 mph). This car has plenty of acceleration for my driving style. I hope to get better mileage on extended highway trips. I think the mileage would be even better with a 6-speed stick shift to drop the tachometer from ~2300 rpm to <2000 rpm at 60 mph.

90,000 Miles - 2008 Honda Accord
By JS - July 13 - 9:20 pmJust turned 90K and still pleased. 2nd set of tires 3 weeks ago. If purchasing tires, buy same speed rating as original. 90% interstate driving is returning 32-34 MPG. Oil change by Maintenance Minder averaging 10K intervals. No issues and will probably drive to 200K. Brake pads front and rear once to date.

Overall a big plus with a few nits - 2008 Honda Accord
By Ed C. - July 8 - 11:23 pmReading the reviews has me puzzled; either people love the car or hate it. Honda always made cars that were more sporty than American cars and Camry. Had a 1994 Honda Accord with almost 120,000 miles on it and will miss it. Overall the car is great: more room, more power, just as sporty as always (firm seats/ride).

Stepped up Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
By honda lover - June 22 - 12:26 pmI love this new Honda. The larger body style is very roomy inside. The outside redesign is very slick. This car is everything every Honda lover wants plus more. The stepped power of the 4cylinder gives the car the smoothness of a v6 drive. Highly recommend this car to anyone who wants a great value car that will last a lifetime.

Beyond Expectation - 2008 Honda Accord
By Mary Mediate - June 9 - 7:43 pmDriving this car is like going to heaven. You will want for nothing. It is amazing in every way. It has bells and whistles I never knew it had. The car is human and perfectionistic. It drives well, the satellite radio is awesome and it has the comfort of home. I am thinking about living in my car.
