  • If I could do it again I would! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    The only cars Ive ever owned have been Mustangs (last 2 were GTs). After having yet another problem with the stang, I decided to trade it in and drove past Honda. The minute I saw the Accord, I liked it. I doubted that the 4 cylinder would be enough power, but I test drove it and its quick. Its no 8 cylinder GT, but it also gets double the gas mileage and so far, no problems. The major factor in my decision was that its also recommended in Consumer Reports. I didnt want another pile of car crap that was going to give me issues, and Honda has an excellent reputation. The rear is not the most attractive, but I plan on getting a body kit installed, so it wasnt a factor.

    We picked up a new Accord LX the other day and we couldnt be happier with our purchase. Although its a lower trim level, it has high quality interior trim; very comfortable seats; and and very smooth, quiet ride. The interior and exterior look great! Also, its very spacious inside, but it doesnt feel big. My only complaints are the wheel covers on the LX look cheap (in my opinion), the trunk hinges invade some space, and there isnt a trip computer or compass. Other than that, this car is great! I recommend it to everyone!

  • 2008 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L V6 - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Our family was badly in need of a car. Starting price of anything of any type of quality was approx. 25K. Looked at several vehicles. Jetta TDI: great mileage, poor build quality of the car. Passat: nice car, addl $$ for premium gas, not as big of interior as accord, dealer that we would utilize for service not clean. Volvo S40: nice car, small in size, about same as Jetta, very well built. Accord Sedan 4 cyl: great car, great quality. Our winner: Accord Sedan EX-L V6: great car, great quality, excellent fit and finish, lifetime dealer warranty on eng/trans, ULEV/PZEV, power when needed/wanted, best financing avail., nearly identical mpg as 4 cylinder d/t VCM.

  • 2008 Accord, what a car! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I spent a long, long time researching and reviewing the cars available to meet my needs of a family sedan. I considered many makes and models, both foreign and domestic. Based on my particular needs and taste, the 08 Accord won hands down. I have had the car for only 3 days and driven it about 200 miles. It is a truly remarkable vehicle. The V6 is so smooth and powerful, with no perceptible change as the motor switches back and forth between running on 6, 4, or 3 cylinders. The ride and handling are outstanding. The ivory leather interior is outstanding. The dash is very impressive with the burl wood trim. The quality is so high, I havent heard one squeak or rattle. I love it!

  • Great car for the money - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I have had this car for about 4 months now and i must say that overall its one of the best cars I have owned. At first the gas mileage was a disappointment, but as the car is now breaking in (3800 miles) its getting better. As of this morning when i filled the tank i got 28.7 MPG and that was a mixture of highway and city driving. As far as style is concerned, its a real attention getter and i get many compliments on it. My only complaint is that it seems a bit sluggish. I figured 190 HP would have had more punch to it, but maybe this will get better as it breaks in more.

  • Plenty of room! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Im a little over 61" and my Accord has tons of room! Very comfortable drive, holds the road very nicely and a blast to drive. Like every car there are things I would like to see changed but overall you cant beat the quality of a Honda. It has a lot of pep, really moves for a 4cylinder! You wont find a better car for the price.

  • Wow - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Purchased this vehicle after careful review of the Camry, Altima and Malibu. Uncomfortable in Camry, Had a Nissan before, rough ride. Test drove Honda and enjoyed the firm yet very comfortable ride. Fuel economy is great. Drove from Lafayette, LA to Orlando. Averaged 33.5 mi/gal. Same on trip to Houston. Overall averaging about 25-27 MPG. Handles very well, sure footed. If you like to drive and want great economy pass the other cars mentioned, this is the one youll enjoy.

    I previously owned a 2006 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. Now that was a fast car but thats about it. This car is a dream from the GAS to the STYLE to the COMFORT. You will not regret your choice I PROMISE.

  • My First Auto Purchase - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I want to first say that Im completely satisfied with my purchase and couldnt ask for a better looking/performing car for the price range. I commute about 20 miles to work each way and the V6 gives me more than enough power and kick to pass with ease. The suspension feels tighter than that of a camry, and the car handles very well considering its larger size. Aestetically, the cars new redesign is off the charts. The front end is mean, along with the chrome accents on the handles and the dual exhaust that separates the V6 from the I4. Dash is very convinient despite reviews. This car looks elegant with the chrome, yet dashing and sporty. A-OK in my book

  • Very nice car - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Ive only had the car about one week, but so far so good. I love the interior layout and comfort. The center console is a bit overwhelming at first, but it gets better as you get used to it. The navigation and bluetooth are awesome. Highly recommend getting that option if possible. The ride is smooth and quiet. Im very happy thus far.
