  Black Honda Coupe - 2009 Honda Accord
  By dmull - December 9 - 5:50 pm

  What can I say, its a Honda. This is my 7th Honda in 20 years. The unique thing about a Honda is when you get inside and close the door, you hear and feel a solid contact. This is true in all new cars. The unique aspect of a Honda is that it will still sound that way in 10-15 years later. They are just built solid.

  Early problem with rear brakes - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Asif - December 1 - 7:20 am

  I have owned Accord for close to 2 years now and it runs beautifully and I am very happy with my purchase. But there are 2 things, I would like to bring to other buyers notice. First, when it had about 20,000 miles, there was a cranky noise when you start it cold. Took to dealer and they changed the alternator for free. The other issue was noise from rear brakes and I had to finally replace them, with my own money. Feel it was too early for brakes to wear out and make noises (I am not an adventurous driver).

  Nice Ride 09 LX auto - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Gman - November 14 - 5:20 am

  I have 250,000 miles on my 1994 Honda accord. I bought a new silver 4dr 2009 LX in Feb 09, So far Im pretty happy with the car. I have taken a couple of long trips and there are no issues with the seats to me. The AC is ICE cold and the 4 cyl has enough power for my use. The down side is the cheap plastic doors and dash material, lights flicker at night and the loud road noise. But for under 20Gs Im very happy with the buy.

  Great family sedan - 2009 Honda Accord
  By pip - November 11 - 2:40 am

  I traded in a 2007 civic si 4 door sedan on a new accord. My wife could not drive the 6spd manual and she hated the ride. I must say I am a die hard Honda lover, my past 2 cars were civics, one an ex manual coupe and most recently the si. The accord is way more family friendly and has better creature comforts but I miss the style and handling of the civic. This car seems enormous to me but maintains tight handling for such a big car. The exterior looks great and the engine seems to have enough pep for a 4 cylinder. I researched the Camry as well, and honestly I think this car is better handling and the interior is built with better quality. Its no civic si but it is still a Honda.

  Great Car! - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Frank S. - November 6 - 2:00 am

  I traded from a Civic up to the Accord for power,comfort,safety (VCS)and more interior space. The car rides great,good feel to the road,smooth engine and the MPG were not that much off from the 4 offered in the Accord. Sound system is very good,nice to have Homelink built in and the heated outside mirrors along with running lights included. The only thing I did not go with was the Nav. and for the money did not see the value,of course dont drive that much where it is needed. Brush Metal Color on the exterior looks rich and Gray Leather in the Interior is a great contrast.

  Well Built Vehicle - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Car Guru - October 17 - 7:23 am

  I have owned many cars in my 25 years of driving, (i.e Nissan Maxima, Infiniti G35, Ford Mustang, Nissan Sentra). I never imagined owning a Honda after Nissan vehicles for the last 15 years. The Accord meets my expectations in styling, performance and workmanship. I dont understand why so many people are complaining about road noise and lack of comfort. The Accord does have a firm ride which adds to good handling. I dont like mushy ride and a loose steering wheel. I find that the Accord handles better than the 3 Maximas that I owned. The interior is very roomy and well made (no squeaks and rattles that I had with Nissan). I have not had one problem in the first 90 days of ownership.

  Fun To Drive....NO! - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Fun To Drive....NO! - October 8 - 7:36 am

  Comfort, styling and most features are great, but why have 271 horsies under the hood if the take off from a dead stop is so sluggish? It performs great at highway speeds, but hesitates when taking off from a red light. Next Accord for me will be the 4 cylinder 190 HP version. The VCM 6 is a HUGE disappointment for me. Will trade this in as soon as possible!

  Driver seat stinks - 2009 Honda Accord
  By dericfic - October 1 - 1:36 pm

  Everything is great except for the driver seat. Very uncomfortable. I hate how many reviewers wrote the same comments but STILL recommend buying it. I wouldnt EVER buy a Honda again. The seat is a killer on my back.
