This Accord is beyond what I expected - 2008 Honda Accord
By DTG12878 - March 14 - 7:50 pmTheres nothing bad I can say about this car. I ponder if I should of gotten the navigation but I have everything else besides that and blue tooth, so no complaints. I bought the car and immediately took it on a road trip right after I pulled off the lot. I drove 900 miles and filled up twice and I have a lil less then an 1/8 of fuel left so on the freeway at speeds of 70-80 and times I had to drive 25-45 the V-6 gave me about 24-25 miles per gallon which is extraordinary! I love the car outright. Like I said, nothing bad too say about it at all

2008 Honda Accord - 2008 Honda Accord
By Douglas - March 9 - 12:53 pmThe 2008 Honda Accord V6 is one of the most annoying cars to drive between the vibration in the steering at speeds above 50 mph and the engine constantly changing the number of cylinders that are firing. In 3 cylinder mode it feels and sounds as if the engine is misfiring. The gas tank sloshes if the tank is above 3/4 full (the baffles do not extend to the top of the inside of the tank to prevent the gas from sloshing around). The XM satellite radio frequently loses signal as you drive down the road. Round noise prevents the radio from being heard well on the highway. If you stop and then turn going uphill, the transmission down shifts violently throwing everyone in the car.

By Far the Best Design & Performance... - 2008 Honda Accord
By m.yates - March 6 - 6:46 amThis is my 5th Honda. Starting at purchase year 1987- Prelude - through Accord. I purchased a 2004 V6- Leather and I did not think Honda could do any better with design or performance. I can tell you their research with design and engine has really served the new 2008 Honda Accord well. This car handles like no other Honda I have driven. It is simply the best by far and Looks great. Very Classy, Sporty design. I definitely recommend a test drive. You will not be disappointed.

Bad Car - 2008 Honda Accord
By Karen Smith - February 27 - 9:33 pm2008 V6 sedan has vibration in steering wheel at speeds of 65 to 78 mph. Test drove a 2009 after I purchased mine only to find the same problem. Honda Corp does not acknowledge the problem. Possibly the new design with the new wishbone suspension. 7 months after the initial purchase @ 13,000 miles I needed rear brakes. They put ceramic pads on the rear to replace the factory pads and only charged me labor. But if they covered the brakes under warranty than why did I pay labor. Because brake pads are warrantied only up to 7,500 miles? Lets see how long these brake pads last! This is my 6th Honda and my last. Each newer model has more problems than the last.

Great Car except for One Thing - 2008 Honda Accord
By KarMeg12 - February 14 - 7:23 pmI loved this car when I took it for a test drive. I was a Toyota fan for years, but this time Honda won me over. My decision came down to the Camry or Accord. I decided to go for the car with more pep (Accord) rather than the one with the smoother and quieter ride (Camry). I thought I could just turn up the stereo to drown out the Accords notorious road noise. Boy was I wrong. The premium sound system is below par any other standard sound systems Ive had in any of my previous low end models (various makes). I took the car back to the dealership and was told there was nothing that could be done, this was the premium system and there are no upgrades available.

Buyers Remorse... Retracted - 2008 Honda Accord
By jt007 - January 16 - 8:36 pmWhen I bought this car a year ago, I initially wrote a review stating I may have buyers remorse due to extremely uncomfortable drivers seat. I have now logged 51,000 miles and can give a very accurate review. Dealership replaced my drivers seat, made all the difference. Car averages 28 mpg overall, mostly highway. I have gotten as high as 31 on long trips, no air, driving 79 mph. Besides oil changes and tires, no unexpected problems. Cracked grille was replaced by dealer at no charge. Factory fog lights cracked, were replaced at cost. This car is very reliable, and driving it in Michigans "blustery" winters has been nothing but sheer confidence. Overall driving experience A+.

Better than expected - 2008 Honda Accord
By JW - January 16 - 5:03 amThis car has been a real pleasure to drive. After owning pick-ups, Tahoes, and Suburbans for the past couple of decades, I felt that it was time to downsize with fuel being what it is now, and I rarely ever hauled anything. Luckily, I bought this vehicle on a whim and it gets better every day. It fits right(I am 60"), is fun to drive, great stereo, fuel economy, performance.

2008 Honda Accord Coupe 2.4L 5M - 2008 Honda Accord
By jseejr - December 25 - 12:23 pmI have shopped around for months now, and nothing has been more attractive and financially appealing as my new Honda Accord coupe. I love the styling of it, it looks like a mix between an Acura TL and a BMW 3 series. Its fun to drive, and gets great gas mileage. I couldnt have asked for a better car.

Spoiled by Hondas - 2008 Honda Accord
By Tom B. - December 23 - 9:33 pmI had an 98 Acura 3.0CL on which I put 175,000 miles. Since Acura no longer makes coupes, I went with the Honda because Ive been spoiled. The 3.5 in the Honda is very similar to the 3.0 I had. I loved that engine and it was easy to work on so my choice was easy. So far, I love this engine too although its different with VCM. Honda says the VCM works seamlessly but my experience is a little different. When it goes to 4 cylinders, you cant feel it. When it goes to 3, you can. When it goes back to 6, you cant feel it unless youre pulling a grade. Its not objectionable and the increase in mpg is worth it (22-23 city, 28-30 hwy). Watch out for a blind spot on the passenger side.
