Honda Accord has been fully redesigned for 2008. It's bigger and roomier. New four- and six-cylinder engines are not only more powerful, they either match or surpass their predecessors in terms of fuel economy.

• Powerful and fuel-efficient engines, ample passenger space, balanced approach to handling and ride comfort, striking coupe styling.

  Very Satisfied. - 2008 Honda Accord
  By drelement - August 25 - 12:40 am

  For the price, this car is an outstanding value that wreaks high quality. The 190 hp I4 engine is powerful and smooth enough to enjoy, without sacrificing fuel mileage. The new styling is very upscale, and the interior layout is also impressive and spacious inside. My only reservations are the ivory cloth interiors durability (had to have taffeta white!), and the hvac/stereo plastic trim panel creaks like crazy when its hot outside.

  Love the car but... - 2008 Honda Accord
  By rendar - August 23 - 10:26 am

  I love almost everything about this car. The look. The way it drives. Fuel economy is good (I see complaints but I get very close to EPA estimates). Very quiet (again, Ive seen complaints, but for me it is quieter than any car Ive ever owned). Very good power for 4 cyl. My only complaint is comfort. The front seats are extremely uncomfortable after anything more than 15 minutes of driving due to what I see as a design flaw, the seat curvature is too great, and even with the lumbar support all the way retracted, it still feels like there is some type of bar sticking out in the wrong part of my back (I am 63" and my wife 51" and we both have issues with it).

  WOW - Redesign is AWESOME! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By LyninMass - August 16 - 6:30 am

  I just traded in my gas guzzling SUV - it had all of the extras, but I was very impressed with the upgrades that were made to the Accord. I went with top of the line model, and the technology is excellent! The safety alone is a great reason to buy. It is solidly built and the cabin is quiet. Nice ride, and that V6 sure can kick it! I just love this car - and with almost double the highway gas mileage that I was getting with my Grand Cherokee - that adds a lot of $$ towards my monthly payment. GREAT CAR ALL AROUND!

  Dont buy an Accord until Honda fixes em - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Lori - August 10 - 12:20 pm

  This is my third Honda Accord and while they finally made some improvements in the body styling, the car is worse than I ever could have imagined! First was a 4-cylinder sedan, second a V6 coupe and this one is a V6 coupe with the current styling. I still like the look of the car. But its noisy as all get out and the brakes are horrid. HORRID! At 20k we had to replace them although it was done under warranty save we paid for labor as the brake issue is now "common and known". My B- In-Law is a mechanic for a local dealership and said he has not seen an Accord NOT need the brakes changed @20k. Today noticed they are smoking. Whats next, fires? Then will Honda fix this issue?

  Good but not Excellent like my 2003 - 2008 Honda Accord
  By George - August 9 - 9:06 am

  The seats in my 2008 which is just like a 2009 are considerably less than Im used to from Honda. They are definitely cutting corners and making the vehicle cheaper. I discovered one of the reasons to be that my 08 Honda was made in Japan and imported rather than made in Marysville like my others. I believe this made a considerable difference in vehicles and would recommend that anyone purchasing a new one look very close at assembly location on the window sticker...

  Horrible Car - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Rose - July 27 - 5:20 am

  I bought my car in Dec 07 and put 31k since then, all highway miles. At 25k I needed a new wheel bearing which was covered under warranty. At 30k I brought it into the dealer because the check engine light was on. Took the mechanics 2 days to figure out what was wrong with the car. Ended up that I needed a new cylinder in my engine plus a couple spark plugs replaced. The dealer did not have any explanation of why this happened. Thank god that I bought the extended warranty or that would have been a huge bill. Extremely disappointed with this car. I bought it for its reliability and all I have gotten is trips to the dealer to get it fixed. Will never buy this car again.

  Best car I ever owned. Drives like a more expensive German car, without all the mechanical problems. Thanks Honda.

  I Did Buy Two! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Snake - July 20 - 6:56 am

  Yup! I couldnt resist so we just picked up my, I repeat my, Accord this week. Even with all my previous complaining I added the Navigation option and I have to say it is very nice, but still overpriced. The Accord has a tremendous environment. I purposely take the long way to destinations. I notice that I now drive with a big smile on my face. What a car! I did test drive the coupe and found it too confining due to an almost 2" difference in headroom. I did not like the interior door moldings that covered the door controls. All in all, per Hondas website, the sedan has 19 advantages over the coupe so my decision was a no-brainer and I have never regretted my decision.

  Long Term Tested - 2008 Honda Accord
  By SJP - July 16 - 2:50 am

  I am an avid car lover. Been researching cars for over 30-yrs. I did my homework before buying this car. Looked at everything: Camry, Altima, TSX, etc. This was the best value for the money, and thought that Hondas known reliability and resale would be a benefit. Went with the top- of-the line L, paid just under 30K. After over 30K miles not so pleased with my purchase. Brakes are the worst of any car I have owned, undersized and prone to excessive wear. Had to bring back to dealer for new Routers at 10K. Check engine light has come on twice already, each time resulting in a major repair. Fuel economy in the V- 6 is nowhere near the estimate on the sticker. Getting only 22 mpg. on average.
