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.

  love it!!! - 2004 Honda Accord
  By bjvora - May 11 - 10:00 am

  If u are looking for a blend of sports & luxury...this coupe is it! Not to mention the reliability, great gas mileage, amazing engine...all for a pretty reasonable price tag! I almost bought an Acura RSX but after doing all my comparison...I went with the Accord Coupe EX...for the following reasons: 1. Significant insurance difference 2. Better interior design 3. Better sounds system 4. Audio controls on steering wheel 4. More room Ive had the car for almost a month now and I am LOVING it!! The cabin is extrememly quiet and the driving experience is just too good!! Would highly recommend it!!

  Drive this car - 2006 Honda Accord
  By zoomer - May 9 - 3:26 pm

  Great car except for road noise coming up through floor. The Acura TL has the same problem. Oh well, you cant have everything. Car is very smooth. Transmission is good but there is a gate to push through to get it over to 5th and 6th and another for reverse. One for reverse is all that is necessary for most drivers. Sound system is very good. Rear seat room is great.

  Study, reliable car - 2001 Honda Accord
  By MJ Gehant CPA - May 9 - 1:57 pm

  This is a sturdy, reliable car. Handles well and very zippy. It makes up in reliability and durability what it lacks in excitement. No mechanical or body problems, decent mileage (though I expected better than 28 mpg but my lead foot may have something to do with that). I fully expect it will go another 300,000 miles or so, although another driver will get that experience since Ill be trading it off soon. No fault of the car - its just time for me to move on to something else. My overall experience with this car has been great - nothing bad to say.

  Great car! - 2002 Honda Accord
  By AccordFan - May 9 - 10:00 am

  Fun to drive! One of the things that sold us on the Accord EX V6 is the smoothness of the ride. The performance of the V6 is also what set this car apart from others in its class. See favorite features for more.

  Own for business from day 1 - 2000 Honda Accord
  By buytxn - May 9 - 10:00 am

  I purchased my Honda new off of the showroom floor. 50,000 miles later it is just as good as new! The car is comforatable and the Honda ergonomics are perfect. I get compliments even from high level executives when they get in my car.

  Great so far - 2006 Honda Accord
  By Adam - May 9 - 5:23 am

  The LX Special Edition had all of the features of the EX that we wanted (disc brakes, wheels, 6 disc CD w/wheel controls,etc) for several thousand less than an EX. The car is a big upgrade over our 01 civic EX. The 4 cylinder is the smoothest I have ever driven. Much smoother than the Toyota or the Nissan 2.5. I was afraid that the 2.4 wouldnt have the power to sufficiently move this big car around, but it has no problem. I am very pleased. I have put 4000 miles on this car in exactly 3 months and am averaging 26 city and 34 highway. Not bad for a car this size.

  Great car - 2001 Honda Accord
  By Mike - May 6 - 11:45 am

  Purchased the EX V6 with dual front and side airbags, ABS and traction control because we wanted a safe car for our teenage drivers. Car runs exceptionally well - nearly as smooth as my 5 series BMW. Good mileage around town and on the road. Strong A/C (important since we live in FL).

  Rock solid - 2006 Honda Accord
  By oldmansi - May 5 - 5:50 pm

  Picked up my cool blue metallic ex v6 coupe a few days ago but am very pleased with the overall performance of this car. Color is beautiful with the soft black leather interior. Driving a stick shift for over 35 years and wanted an auto for a change. Still have my 00 civic si to drive if i want to drive a manual. Car feels bullet proof with a nice thud when closing the door. Overall very happy with the car and feel reliability should be very good.

  Perky new Honda Accord V6 Touring - 2016 Honda Accord
  By Nikijone - May 5 - 4:01 pm

  I love my new Honda Accord V6 Touring. It is quite large in the interior & exterior. So far the gas mileage has been ok; Honda stated it will take about 5,000 miles before I will see an improvement in the MPG. I love that it takes regular gasoline. I miss that there is not a good driver arm rest, but that is a small thing. All of the cameras are very helpful. I did not think I would like the Sensing package but they have been very helpful in backing-up and parallel parking. The steering ratio is excellent. The Honda Accord V6 Touring is a classy sedan, it is not like a “regular Accord”, therefore I hope that Honda creates a new upscale car-name to match the wonderful reality of this car.

  Awesome Car - 2004 Honda Accord
  By rockit - May 5 - 10:00 am

  The first impressions leave the driver with the feeling of comfort yet very powerfull car. Everything about the ergonomics falls just in its right place. Even 2 months after driving the car, qualities are discoverred that where not anticipated. For instance the rev on the engine will actually stay at 2000 RPM when doing a slow shift between 5th and 6 gear.
