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.

  Seattle Silver/moonroof honda - 1992 Honda Accord
  By Verthea - September 22 - 2:00 am

  I loved my Honda and still do. it starts like a top and rides well. We have a new Camry and like it, but it doesnt start right on the first turn of the key and Im not kidding. Think we need to take it back and see why. having trouble selling the Honda as they think were asking too much. But everyone of the 100+ people love it, but dont have the money.

  1st Honda - impressed so far - 2005 Honda Accord
  By TNAccord - September 22 - 12:43 am

  After a year with my 2005 Accord EX Sedan (4-cyl 5-speed), I must say Im impressed with its overall quality. Ive had zero mechanical or electrical problems with the car, which is a first for any new car Ive purchased. Car feels very tight and handles great, though "pep" of the 4-cyl (even in 5-speed) is not as good as on my previous car (a 93 BMW 318i). Only disappointment so far is a rattle coming from the headliner area of the passengers side rear, where the post meets headliner. Hasnt been a big enough headache to warrant a special trip to the dealer, but will have it addressed at my next oil change.

  It Continues to Evolve - 2017 Honda Accord
  By T Deakins - September 21 - 2:37 pm

  The car itself is great albeit a little more still than I like and road noisy. Many of the driving aids are little more than half-steps, e.g.; blind spot detection is only in one side, why not both? … the adaptive cruise will not stop the car … the lane departure system constantly challenges the driver over whos going to steer the car. The nav and radio requires paging multiple screens to get to what you want … this can quite a distraction.

  Best car youll ever own - 1993 Honda Accord
  By j573 - September 21 - 2:00 am

  I rescued my 1993 LX after a friend of mine was about to let her go to a dealership trade in. That was 15k miles ago, at 155k. Im up to 170k now, and have loved every minute. Ive had a few easy fixes (main fuel relay, rubber trim, valve adjustments, etc), but no way can I complain. Especially not with 37mpg on the highway, a decent ride, and fair enough handling for a front drive sedan.

  Veee Tech! - 2001 Honda Accord
  By The OCDetailer - September 19 - 10:00 am

  Ive had my coupe for about a year now, and I like it more as each day goes by. This car performs very well when asked, yet is mild mannered in most driving situations. It still feels very solid and well made despite some minor squeaks and rattles that seem to travel around the interior. The car has been rock solid in terms of reliability. I dont baby the car driving wise, but give it regular mechanical, interior, and exterior maintenance. By the way, if youre looking for some fun, switch off the traction control and go looking for some unexpecting teenage civic (with the 10 in. diameter exhaust pipe) drivers.

  Nothing but excellence - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Honda Hugger - September 19 - 10:00 am

  The 2004 drives great and fits like a glove. From the moment you climb aboard you feel in control of something special. It handles great and has plenty of juice when you need to pass that annoying slow poke in the left- hand lane.
