  • Never thought Id Buy a Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Debated back and forth between this and the Nissan Altima Coupe. Think I made and excellent choice. The V6 is awesome, and with fairly aggressive driving (80-85 mph on freeway) and decent around town driving I am averaging about 26 mpg. The VCM cylinder technology is awesome, although you can feel it kick down to 3 cylinders when it makes the change, almost like it is changing gears. You get used to it really quick though, it took me a few days. The layout and solid build of this car great, although it could use a little more soundproofing in the wheels wells, when a rock flings up or you are driving in rain it is a little noisy. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase

  • Fourth Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I have owed a 1999, 2003, 2006 and this one, a 2008 EX V6 w/nav. All of them were quality vehicles with excellent service records. I have never replaced more than a light bulb in any Honda I ever owned. The first of the 4 was a 4 cyl, the last three V6 and I prefer the V6 because it runs smoother and with the additional power does not tend to shift as often. The 08 Accord has a more firm ride than the 03 and 06 (I like this) the slightly longer and wider size is noticeable, and I thought the older models were big enough. Trunk space while is similar seems a little less usable, especially with the nav DVD box in the trunk. Mileage looks like it will be a little less than the older V6 Hondas

  • Cant Get The Smile Off My Face - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    I considered many vehicles; test drove a few and "settled" on the Accord EX-L V6. Is it a pure drivers or enthusiast car? No, its not. Instead it just offers a very solid feel, more then competent acceleration, tons of very comfortable space, great sounding audio, decent fuel economy and handles more Germanic then Japanese. It brings a smile when I look at it parked, and the smile only widens as I move down the road. Visually appealing, great tactile feel from all that you touch in the cabin, and if your right foot develops an attitude, youll find both whatÂ’s under the hood and all the chassis components more then up to the task of keeping that smile in place.

  • Nice car for the price - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    My 2 door Accord coupe v-6 looks and rides great. The 268 horses work just fine. The VCM works perfectly and has not given me any problems. The brakes could be better in order to stop after hard acceleration. I love the way the automatic shifts and down shifts as you are coming to a stop. If you are looking for a nice 2 door coupe this is it. My old solara was a truck next to the Accord

  • Family fun - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Yes this is a family sedan that has the power and hints of a sports sedan. Highway passing is just a tap away all while pulling 26 to the gal. Around town gas mileage is not as good at 22 with a mix of city and high way.

  • Awesome Car! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is an awesome car. Even the beamers have to take a second look and usually people think that the car is an Acura at first glance. This car is top shelf and Honda stands firm by it with excellent "Mercedes" like service. Go buy it and see for yourself!

  • love it! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    i just purchased my lx-p a couple of weeks ago, having driven a pick up for the last 25 years, i was really surprised at how much i like this car, going from a big v-8 to a 4 is a change but the power is good, gas mileage is great. my first fill up was 26 mpg mixed city and hwy I only expect it to get better, steering is tight and precise, only complaints are road noise is more than i like but its livable, rain or just dew pours in right on top of the power window controls when the window is cracked, but window guards have fixed that, its a fun car to drive, and for what it is, its comfortable, controls are great, easy to reach, Im looking forward to a lot of great miles with this car

  • Very Safe Car - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    After owning this car for only two months, I was involved in an accident that resulted in $11000 worth of damage to the vehicle. It got pinched between a semi trailer and a large flatbed truck resulting in a hit to the front left pillar. Long story short, what should have hit me in the face was deflected by the car. I walked away from this accident with only some minor scratches from broken glass though the car looked like it was totaled. I honestly believe that if I was driving my previous vehicle, I would be in the hospital right now.

  • My 6th Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    Owned a 1980 Civic DX, 1983 Accord Hatch LX, 1989 Accord Sedan, 1997 CRV, 2002 CR-V EX...and now, 2008 Accord EX Coupe 4Cyl AT. This coupe is the nicest of the bunch! Its a well built beauty. Solid build, comfortable interior, smooth ride, fuel efficient (averaging 27.9 mpg, reasonable price and, its a real head turner. I simply love it!

  • I may buy two! - 2008 Honda Accord
    By -

    My 2008 Honda Accord continues to impress me every time I start the engine. There is an amazing comfort level with this car. Comfort based on the quality and attention to detail Honda efficiently packs into this newly reclassified full size car. Talk about your bang for a buck, you get it with the Accord. From the overall exterior styling, the leather interior, dashboard, moon roof, engine, wheels, tires, and even the trunk you get nothing less than quality. I am extremely happy with my purchase and because I hate to share this car with the wife I am now scrambling to realign my budget to make a move on the coupe or maybe just another sedan.
