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.

  Awesome Ride - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Ammoguy - April 27 - 2:46 am

  I was initially looking at the Mazda 6, but when I got into the new Accord I couldnt get back into the Mazda. This car responds right away when you tell it what to do. The ride is comfortable and relatively quiet. The looks are excellent. People didnt think much of it when I said I was getting the new Accord until they saw it.

  By Usopachat2002 - April 27 - 2:00 am

  No wonder I always see 90-93 Accords in the street. My, car was very reliable, fun to drive & it drives like a brand new car. It is the best car ever came from Japan.

  2200 miles in the first month! - 2010 Honda Accord
  By Jay C. - April 26 - 8:20 pm

  I purchased my Accord almost exactly a month ago & have made a few road trips in it already. My previous daily car was a 04 VW GTI VR6, which honestly Im already starting to miss. Ive owned a few Hondas in the past, and the reliability/cost of ownership/value was the reason for my purchase. On long trips, its not a bad cruiser, & around town if you can get used to its mammoth size, its not too bad. It needs sway bars, better brakes, & a halfway-decent stereo like yesterday. Its better suited for people who view cars as appliances rather than adrenaline pumps. Its an ideal car for retirees, which is why Im handing the keys to my parents in about a year or two.

  This Should Have an Acura Badge - 2008 Honda Accord
  By soflorida6MT - April 25 - 7:50 pm

  The new Accord coupe, with the V6 and manual transmission reminds me of the departed Acura CL Type-S. The Accord is a great value for the money. Its very comfortable, has pretty much every luxury feature you might want, and is still fun to drive. I will warn you though, that if you drive it like it should be driven, gas mileage isnt the best. Ive been averaging around 20 mpg with a city/highway ratio of 70/30. The suspension is definitely firm, but in no way harsh. The V6 is buttery smooth all the way to redline, and it has plenty of pull.

  Dependable and Reasonably Sporty - 2003 Honda Accord
  By Bradley - April 25 - 10:00 am

  I am very happy with my Accord. Although not as sporty as the higher cost BMWs or Infiniti G35, it is well worth the money. The interior design is excellent, the exterior is conventional but still looks good. I like the acceleration and handling, and appreciate the smoothness of the ride as a I have a significant commute. I am a Honda fan, and this new version of the Accord is a good one!

  Accord Review - 2003 Honda Accord

  A good handling, responsive, fun to drive sedan. Great acceleration, decent gas mileage and very dependable. Should test drive this auto before wasting money on something more expensive that uses more expensive fuel.

  The Best Accord Ever - 2003 Honda Accord
  By Amodio - April 25 - 10:00 am

  This is the best car we have ever owned. I was invited to drive the new BMWs at the Greer s.c. plant in February 2003. Altough the BMWs were great cars I am more impressed with my Honda. I only wish they made a police package.

  Black EX V6 Accord Sedan - 2003 Honda Accord
  By thret - April 25 - 10:00 am

  This care is one of the best cars I have ever driven..anywhere. I was looking at the Acura TSX and Infiniti G35 as other options. The TSX, although a Euro Accord falls behind in terms of interior room and the pep/feel did not compare to the Accord. The Infiniti was simply stated 10 grand more.I also drove an EX (4cyl) before going with my new V6 Sedan. The V6 upgrade from EX is well worth it, even though torque and HP are only slightly differed the V6 just feels so much better. It even feels like a Jet just rocketing off.It is a combination of a sporty sedan and even has a classy touch and feel.
