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.

  By SEAN - July 8 - 10:00 am

  IT IS A FUN CAR TO DRIVE. I GOT THE VERY TOP OF THE LINE MODEL WITH ALL OF THE BELLS AND WHISTLES. I COMPARED IT TO OTHER CARS IN THE SAME PRICE RANGE AND I FOUND YOU CANT GET AS MANY FEATURES AS THIS CAR OFFERS FOR YOUR MONEY.

  Wake Up! - 2003 Honda Accord
  By jays - July 8 - 10:00 am

  Awesome engine, but the responsive and sporty handling of 91 Accord is much better than 2003 ! This one is very ok. Shape is horrible, so is trunk space. Sound system seems 49 years old. New maxima much better for the price.

  Great Car - 2001 Honda Accord
  By Justin - July 6 - 4:42 pm

  I have owned 2 previous models and this one by far is my favorite. It is a very nicely equipped car. Anyone wanting to buy one should not worry about getting a bad one because they all are a great vehicle.

  Good car if everything worked - 2003 Honda Accord
  By rollingib - July 5 - 5:53 pm

  bought the car used with 28,000 on it. Since warranty went out no major problems. Radio light just went out, a common problem I just found out. I love Honda, thought I would have fewer problems with car, but most relatively small compared to others. I guess I got lucky. Overall, I know it will last me a good while, thats why we bought.

  What a LetDown - 2005 Honda Accord
  By Freddy Muggs - July 4 - 8:00 pm

  I traded my fifteen year old Acura for the Accord, (because I could not afford a new Acura). What a letdown! My old Acura still rides smoother, accelerates better, and even looks better than my new Accord. Not that the Accord is a piece of junk, but compared to the Acura, fuggetabout it! The noise level is terrible inside. Rain sounds like someone dropping marbles on sheet metal. Other cars stereos penetrate so loud that I keep checking to see if I fully rolled up the windows. I see on the nameplate that the car is made in Mexico. I wish Honda made it in Japan. I think Honda would not get the reputation it enjoys today if the original cars were made like this one.

  Hard to get more for your money - 2006 Honda Accord
  By Jake - July 4 - 3:53 am

  My experience got off to a rough start. On my drive home, the transmission popped out of first gear. Took it to the dealer and had to twist their arm to admit there was a problem - then had the car in the shop for 10 days so they could replace first gear. After a couple months the problem appears to be solved. That said, the transmission shifts like a dream. Why anyone drives automatics is truly a mystery to me. The interior is great and roomy, nav and xm are great - especially the xm. I do wish the car had beefier brakes and better (more sporty) tires. But I can always upgrade in the future. Gas mileage is about 25 in mixed driving and 32 hwy. Engine is powerful and smooth.

  2nd Accord - Still in LOVE! - 2004 Honda Accord
  By jrkstl - July 3 - 10:00 am

  This 2004 model is the second Accord that Ive owned, and my love affair has only grown! The newest generation offers surprisingly more than my 2001 model with the same trim, and the power increase so far seems dramatic. The interior fit and finish is flawless, and in black leather looks way more expensive than it is. While the body style of the 4 door isnt for everyone, I think Honda got the Coupe just right. It seems smaller on the outside, but much larger inside. I love this car!
