Overview & Reviews

Few vehicles from overseas manufacturers have garnered as much respect in North America as the Honda Accord. It hasn't achieved this status by being glamorous, sexy or thrilling. Instead, Honda just seems to have its finger on the pulse of what Americans value most. Take an Accord for a spin and you'll find it to be comfortable, roomy, intelligently engineered and easy to drive. It's also backed by strong resale value and a solid reputation for reliability.

You'll find that certain competing sedans and coupes are quicker, more prestigious or simply less expensive than the Accord. What's special about the Honda Accord, though, is its completeness. It scores well across a broader range of categories than practically any family-friendly sedan or coupe on the market. When examined from this holistic standpoint, it's easy to see why the Accord has become an automotive icon and remains one of our editors' top recommendations.

  Turn up the radio - 2009 Honda Accord
  By tdfx5 - March 11 - 1:06 pm

  Fortunately the sound system is decent, as it helps to drown out all the road and wind noise. What happened to the sound deadening on this car? Depending on road surface, it can be hard to carry on a conversation. Despite the fussy- looking dash and console, all controls work well. Ride and handling are sound, and the 4-cylinder is more than adequate while delivering decent mileage. Purchased on Honda name and reputation, but overall this car has been a bit of a letdown.

  My first Accord - 2008 Honda Accord
  By fdisk - March 10 - 1:56 am

  My dad has the 2007 V6 and my 4 cyl rides just as smooth if not better than his! The design in this car is brilliant all around, very comfortable seats, drive-by-wire makes steering so smooth youll think you are controlling the car with your mind. Safety features are top notch. I was researching new cars for months, the 08 Accord always came out on top, once I test drove it I signed the papers right away. This car feels like an Acura with a Honda badge on it. Definitely looks and feels like a car worth more money than what you will pay for it.

  Sweet Ride EX style - 2003 Honda Accord
  By Masterm1nd23 - March 9 - 11:00 pm

  Man where to begin with this wonderful car. I love the way this car looks and getting behind the wheel is even more exhilarating. The car is sporty but yet sophisticated. Getting on the highway is a real rush in this vehicle. I cant wait to get my K&N air filter which will give my beauty "Silver Surfette" approximately 260 horsepower. I would recommend this car to anyone who loves comfort and performance.

  Feels Like a Luxury Car, or Better - 2006 Honda Accord
  By LSH Jersey - March 9 - 2:30 pm

  This is my third Honda and only because I wanted a newer, more luxurious Honda; not because my ten year old one had anything wrong with it. Aside from ridiculous, opulent features such as memory seats or rear facing TV cameras this car has everything. Although it was a bit pricey it seems like an outright bargin when compared to Lexus, Mercedes, BMW or even Acura. I think those luxury car drivers should discover what theyre missing. Great acceleration, reasonable fuel economy considering the power, no rattles, controls precisely in place, comfortable heated seats, pleanty of room, great handling and visability. I only wish they offered a variety of interior colors.

  185K and still going - 1999 Honda Accord
  By Meyer - March 8 - 7:58 pm

  Best build quality of any vehicle hands down. Change the oil every 5k and no problems. 1 timing belt at 100K, and new ac compressor. Just keeps going and going.

  Hate to see it go - 2001 Honda Accord
  By sandman - March 8 - 4:08 pm

  My wife needed a new car. She test drove a few. When she drove the Accord, she had to have it. 4 yrs later, family is bigger and we get her a new Pilot. I get stuck with this (2001 lx 4dr 5spd). I gotta tell ya, I try to kill this thing every day, shifting at redline and aggressive downshifting. Always dealer serviced. I commute 50 miles a day. I drive this thing near its limits every day, and always get 31 mpg. 50/50 hwy, city. Its still as healthy as ever!

  05 Accord EX-L 5 speed - 2005 Honda Accord
  By marty - March 8 - 4:53 am

  I love this car. Replaced a 95 Accord V6 EX-L with this. Car is quiet, smooth, and loaded with features. 5 speed makes the 4 cylinder very easy to live with, and with gas prices going up every day, mileage is great as well.
