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.

  Just Keeps Going - 1991 Honda Accord
  By Marks - September 27 - 2:00 am

  We bought this car new. After 13 years and 120,000 miles, it still looks so good inside and out, and it still works so well, that we continue to postpone any thoughts of trading it in. We have replaced the timing belt and exhaust system twice. Those are the only major maintenance items so far. Other minor repairs have included the drivers door latch (twice), and the rear speakers (cones rotted out from age). Otherwise it just keep going and going. This has to be one of the best models Honda has produced.

  By jkzn - September 27 - 2:00 am

  The best car I have ever owned in terms of reliability and build quality I just drove a new Taurus and my 6 year old Accord drives smoother and quieter.

  By mimosa - September 26 - 10:00 am

  This is a fun car to drive if you like a 5 speed. Its very roomy inside but doesnt drive like a big car. I love it. The heated drivers seat in winter is a treat. Very reliable, quiet.

  Accord review - 2004 Honda Accord

  Great car overall, but lacks in pickup. Seems like the Civic has better pickup off the bat. Instrument panel is well designed and fun to use. Lot of extras.

  A wise 2-door coupe purchase - 2009 Honda Accord
  By Accordguy0325 - September 25 - 6:56 am

  My 2009 Accord EX-L V6 coupe. I recently purchased the above car in crystal black pearl, with a black interior. In terms of exterior styling I personally believe it is one of Hondas best looking cars to date with its flowing lines, chrome accents, large wheels, and, expressive curves. I find the interior to be very luxurious, visually appealing, and very well put together. The textures and materials of the interior, especially the leather trim and aluminum look accents are of high quality. The power from the 3.5 liter V6 is smooth and strong, complimented by a perfect balance of sporty handling and a comfortable ride, all while being reasonably quiet. I highly recommend this car!

  Nice Car, Iffy Build Quality - 1997 Honda Accord
  By ColdSteel - September 25 - 2:00 am

  I like the styling, lots of aftermarket parts available. Aftermarket sunroof stinks. Tranny lurches at low speeds, engine is unexcepticly noisy and enemic. Needs VTEC. Windows are really slow. Handeling is bad. But it does looks nice. :)

  I cant belive this is a Honda - 2006 Honda Accord
  By bugsy123 - September 23 - 8:56 am

  When I decided to purchase a new car, there were many models and makes that I had in mind. I testes the Acura TSX and the Acura TL as well as the Nissan Maxima and Altima. The last car that I tested was the 2006 Accord EX V6. My initial impressions were that it ahd the fell of a luxury car and the personality of a sports car. It handles well and has more than enough power to satisfy the side of you that wants to get up and go full throttle. In my opinion and after extensive research, the accord is a steal for the price and should be at the very least test driven by anyone looking for a well balanced, medium-priced car with a reputation for rock solid reliability.

  Honda Magic - 1999 Honda Accord
  By AtlantaGuy - September 23 - 2:00 am

  This is the best car ever. We love it and people always comment on it. Its a head turner and fun to drive. This is the 7th Honda weve bought in our car buying career. We just bought an 88 Civic (#8) with 260,000 miles with no fear for our college son. My 90 Accord has more than 300,000 miles and is still running strong. We LOVE Hondas!

  better than my BMW 335i except the drop top - 2016 Honda Accord
  By mike duffy - September 22 - 3:41 pm

  the Honda v6 is an excellent value and great fun to drive. larger than the 335i, 6 inches wider and a foot longer but handling is excellent and has a more stable feel. I strongly recommend it
