  • Greatest Automobile Devised by Man - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is a follow-up to my two previous reviews on my 2008 Honda Accord Base Model. It is the greatest automobile ever devised by man. After seven months of ownership and driving, the engines MPG has actually gone UP from 21.2 to a current whopping 23 city, 25 when doing much highway. This isnt the sticker MPG, its from careful recording and calc. after filling up. Your break-in period for the first 600 miles is crucial - dont gun your engine during that time. Warm up your engine for about a minute after each startup. After this coddling, you can drive like Danica Patrick at the Indy 500 and your Honda Accord will eat up the road. Good luck to all. Thank you.

  • Great Value, Great Car - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I traded my 08 Mazda Cx7 which was a Lemon for an 08 Honda Accord Coupe EX 4cyl AT. I had my Accord for 3 weeks now and I super love it. This is my first Honda and Im amazed of the quality and value for my money. My family and friends love the car too. Its a head turner..

  • The Best of Performance, Style & Quality - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I traded my 2004 Chevrolet Corvette for a new 2008 Honda Accord Coupe V6 and I am totally happy. This car has great gas mileage even with the V6. Its much more comfortable than the Vette and I absolutely love driving it. It has great handling and does so with comfort. I researched many other makes and models but for the performance, quality, and style, the accord won hands down for cars under $32,000. HONDA, YOU GET AN A+! Thanks

  • Love This Car - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    After much review of 4 door sedans in the $30K price range I went with the Accord. Im only 100 miles into my driving experience, but have to say that I love this car. It has a very upscale exterior design. The build feels and is very solid. The doors close like a Mercedes. The seems are very tight. As far as handling, the best was I can put it is that it is very confident. The braking and acceleration are excellent. The interior design is roomy and very comfortable. The control counsel and sound system do a very solid job. You could pay $20K more for a luxury sedan. But why?

  • Best Accord Ever? - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Been relying on Hondas for 13 years. Was not going to buy another, as I am almost 50 and wanted something that was bigger and would give me a cushier ride. Read about how this one is bigger than ever, had to test ride it. Nice ride, great handling, best brakes I have ever used. Paid a little under 20k. Have 7,500 miles and no complaints. Drive for both jobs, mostly highway, activate cruise control, sit back and enjoy the ride

  • Awesome Ride - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Not looking to purchase a Honda I came across the Accord Coupe and I had to have it. The looks, ride, and quality are second to none. I highly recommend the Accord Coupe to anyone looking to buy a new car considering fuel economy.

  • You say its NOT German? - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    After having driven Mercedes and Audis for the past couple decades, we bought an 08 Accord, and Im here to tell you that this car drives more like a German road car than some German road cars! Ride is very good, but seats are just a little firm. A power passengers seat would be a nice addition. Its larger overall this year, so size-wise compares with an E- Class Mercedes, 5-series BMW, or A6 Audi. Price-wise its HALF the money, with historically outstanding value- retention. Fit & finish are excellent. EPA says 31 mpg highway, and theyre right. Consistent 31 mpg hwy, and up to 34.4 mpg on our last trip.

  • Great bang for the buck! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Test drove the Altima and the Accord the same day. There was no contest. The Accord won hands down in the first 2 minutes of the drive. Im 60" and had plenty of room in all seating areas. Liked the arrangement of instrumentation on the dash. Exterior looks much more expensive than what you pay for. Engine has a gracious amount of power for a 4 cyl. Its not a 6 cyl so dont compare it to one. Interior noise is very minimal. The overall handling is very impressive. You definitely cant go wrong with this car. As always, another great piece of work from Honda. I couldnt be happier if Id spent twice the amount of money.

  • great car - 2008 Honda Accord

    When my car suddenly broke, my first thought was a Toyota, but found out that they were too small. Next I saw a Camry, but wasnt smooth enough. I looked at the accord, and fell in love with it. My son liked the ex-l the best, but that was out of our budget. He wanted the ex for the sunroof at least, but that wasnt necessary for us. We went with the LX-P because of the rims. The car is very smooth for a v4, my first, but I thought that the gas mileage should be More about 38-45. Well I guess we cant have everything. The car is great, both with styling and performance. This is my first Japanese car, and so far so good! I would definitely recommend this car to any body, any age

  • Awesome But Not Perfect - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I traded in a 1999 Volvo S80 for the new 2008 Accord EX-L V6 w/Nav. The new Accord is impressive in quite a few areas: cabin size, powerful V6, fantastic (truly fun and easy) technology package, handles great despite the fact that it leans a bit too much on aggressive curve handling. My Volvo had a turbo V6, I dont miss it one bit. The Accord engine delivers ample power. Its hard to imagine but the new Accord is actually the same size & weight of my S80 but handles like a smaller sports car. Bottom line, If you cant afford a 40K+ unreliable luxury car then this is a fantastic choice.
