  • How can you go wrong? - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    This easily is one of the best cars on the market. It isnt a old mans car like the Camry, has better features for less money than the Altima, and isnt a rental car like the Malibu. The residual value on a Honda is above the rest, and the fit and finish is spectacular. You will read bad reviews here and there, but not every car off every line is perfect. To the folks who dont like your Accord, you must not have wanted it that bad and met a good salesman. I can talk all day about how good the car is, and if you dont believe me then go drive one! youll take it home unless youre too upside down in your American Vehicle with no value! The 2.4 doesnt have the power of the V6 but still flies!

    Convinced my wife she should get a Honda for reliability, quality, resale yada yada. She gave up her 04 Cadillac CTS. The car does have good styling, Seems economical compared to the CTS. One of the nosiest vehicles Ive ever driven. I have to assume Honda is trying to keep the weight down by limiting insulation. Tires may also contribute. Compare it to a Malibu if you can. Difference in sound level is unbelievable. The driver seating is uncomfortable. Im 63" 245. Probably the most unbelievable to me is what must be a totally inadequate electrical system that allows marginal headlights to dim when the A/C Compressor cycles. Had a 72 Datsun that did that. Wife loves her car.

  • 08 Accord Satisfies - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I just purchased the Accord 08 EX-L V6. I had shopped a Honda Civic, Toyota Camry & Prius, Acura TSX, used Accords, etc. I am extremely satisfied after the first week; though it was more costly, I still like the smooth power and handling of the V-6, the comfort of the leather interior, and something new for me... satellite radio. I had no idea it so extensive. This Accord model has a great balance of features that blends attractive styling, driveablity, build quality, economy, and comfort with all the loaded options that I will enjoy over several years and 100000+ miles of anticipated driving. Plus, and this is big for me, the great crash test scores and safety features of the car.

  • Best EXL-V6Accord 2008 - 2008 Honda Accord

    This is our 5th Accord in the past 15 years and by far and away the best! As comfortable as my wifes Avalon but $5000 less and much more fun to drive. Less road noise, better stereo, and fabulous leather interior! Fantastic curb appeal with appearance resembling BMW.More head and hip room in front than the Avalon. We were planning on waiting until the spring to buy, but after driving this dream car we bought it at the end of the month. After you test drive the 08 Accord you will understand our enthusiasm!

  • Tough to beat - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Not as quiet as a Lexus, but quiet enough. Not as cushy as a Lexus, but cushy enough. Not as fast as a 6cyl Lexus, but fast enough. Not as many bells and whistles as a Lexus, but plenty enough. But, almost $20,000 less, and that is very good enough. For the money, there is no better family sedan on the market. Most features are standard, and close enough to a luxury car, but for a lot less money. 15,000 miles in 6 months, and no problems to report.

  • My First Honda, A+++++++ - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Fun to drive! My first Honda. Precisely tuned suspension that hugs the contours and curves. Beautiful sleek new exterior that says "Come Look At Me"!!! Im looking forward to driving this car every day I get up and head out!! Its that much fun. Nicer interior than the Mercedes C300s we looked at.

    Beautiful car, got one of the first cars at the dealer when they came out. Very happy with the car enjoy the ride and performance. I am having early wear on the brake, shimmy at 60 mph with 20K miles on the car. Possible design issue, dealer reviewing. Mileage is disappointing.

  • Keeps getting better - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I have had my Accord for about a month now and I keep falling in love with it more and more. It has been a great car, and you cant beat it for the price. The nav system is amazing, bluetooth is very handy, and the styling is just perfect. However, the road noise is apparent, which i didnt really notice when we first got the car, but everything else makes up for it. This car is Front wheel drive, but you would never be able to tell by the steering. It is very smooth. If you are considering BMW and Mercedes, check this one out.

  • Quality and practical choice! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    After six months of research and test driving (CRV/Civic, Corolla/Camry, Acura TL),ands down, the Honda Accord is the best in the market. My work requires daily travel of 150miles/day. With 268 hp and great mileage with VCM feature, theres nothing more I can ask for a car! The center console is awesome!! Youve got everything you need in front of you. If you are not a tech savvy person, you may not like it. The exterior is great! Everywhere I go, everybody looks at my car! The interior has lots of room.The ride is so smooth.

  • From Hyundai to Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is my first Honda, and WOW! Traded in my elantra at 33 MPG but with the VCM in my new Coupe, I am getting 28.4 MPG on last fill up. Love the interior and the power and speed, but not hard to beat after what I had. Drove an Altima (3.5 V-6 coupe) and the accord was a major step up and less a price.
