  My First Honda - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Risoguy - May 17 - 10:33 pm

  After several months researching Accord, Camry, and Altima I was very happy that the silver V-6 Accords were in production. At first I was apprehensive about buying a first year model redesign but the auto info was very positive. After 2 weeks on the road and 1,000 miles I am even more pleased with my car than the day I bought it. With all the research I did before the purchase there were no surprises. The response on windy mountain roads is very controlled. I like the variable cylinder management feature where the 4 and 3 cylinder mode kick in when less power is needed. The first trip I got over 28 mpg going up to 70 mph where allowed. Combined city/highway over 22 mpg

  By Patrick McGuinness - May 13 - 3:06 am

  simply the best craftsmanship and quality possible. Smooth responsive acceleration,top of the line high quality supple comfy leather seats. 190 hp much improved and better than any in its class. Honda has finally outdone itself this time and created a work of art and a masterpiece of engineering!!

  My 3rd Honda Accord - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Tom - May 8 - 4:40 pm

  I have been driving Accords trouble free since my 1st 1985 Accord 2Dr hatchback (210k miles) and this is my 3rd Accord. I wanted to get away from the "family sedan" look of my 2001 Accord (172k miles) so I bought the coupe and gave the 2001 to my daughter who needed a car after her 1998 Camry engine seized (oil pump). I really like the styling of the coupe. The car is not noisy as some previous reviews mention but I don’t have the sun roof or the V6 which may add noise. From the start I have been getting about 31 MPG (2/3 Hwy driving) which is better than I got with the 2001 4cyl 5M sedan (maybe better aerodynamics with the coupe). Since I commute 80 miles/day this was a pleasant surprise

  2008 Honda Accord Coupe EX-L 4 cyl - 2008 Honda Accord
  By mark ogle - April 16 - 12:00 pm

  Have had my Accord coupe for a week and it gets a thumbs-up thus far! Traded in my 99 Mustang GT convertible as I changed jobs and needed a more practical commuter car. This a good choice if (like me) you need an affordable and comfortable commuting vehicle but hate the idea of a boring boxy sedan. The Accord Coupe is stylish and sporty. Thought about the V6 but the 190-horsepower base engine has plenty of power for normal driving and passing.

  Needs some help inside. - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Jon - April 8 - 3:23 pm

  My wife has a 08 Camry Hybrid. Very cool instrumentation. Very nice ride. Bought 08 Honda EX and a bit disappointed. Road noise more than Camry on anything other than smooth highway. Heated side mirrors but no compass or outside temp indicator. Go figure!In Tenn we need the later more than the heated mirrors. Aux outlet is in center console and awkward to get to, especially if you have a bunch of junk in console. Power outlets turn off when you turn off the car.Cant charge my cell phone unless Im driving. No auto headlight on/off! Trunk layout is a strange. Much more narrow and 1 cu ft smaller than Camry LE. Comparing Hybrid w/Honda EX probably not fair comparison but is vs the LE.

  Happy with Accord 2008 - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Andrei - April 8 - 10:20 am

  Purchased my car around a month ago Very happy to ride it. Very smooth, easy to handle, makes whatever I want. Did a few trips Cupertino - Monterey, Cupertino-Santa Cruz Very happy with in in the city, on highway, on mountain road. Can make any curve. Sometimes I feel that engine is not powerful enough, for example, when I go uphill by highway , but I never tried to use full-throttle up to now Very space, luxury inside. Like navigational system, it find very good routes.

  Honda is better then Lexus - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Mr. Cobra - April 5 - 12:06 pm

  I bought this 2008 Honda Accord EX V6 and its the best car Ive ever owned. I traded in my 2006 Lexus gs 300 to get this beuty. This 2008 accord is far more smoother, extremely powerful, quieter and reliable than lexus. I have 11,000 miles on my accord and trouble free. Who said Toyota products are reliable? i had to replace the transmission of the lexus at 8,500 miles. I am now going to have a solid reliable car for 10-15 years (2008 honda accord) Thanks Honda for making top class cars. I also have an Acura mdx which is also excellent.

  2008 Honda Accord Sedan EX-L V6 - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Lynette Durbin - April 2 - 12:20 pm

  I went from a 2004 Toyota Tacoma SR5, with a lift-kit. I usually put $35 dollars worth of gas each day, and that only got me from home to work each day. It was pretty bad. Road noise on it was horrible, and just a few weeks ago I decided to change it out for a Honda Accord. I love this car! I dont necessarily like the color, but everything else I adore. Interior is superb, exterior is very stylish. Gas mileage is perfect. I filled it up with $60 dollars and it lasted me about 450 miles. Theres a lot more to say about this car but, to sum it up, its perfect.

  Big Fun Car - 2008 Honda Accord
  By bigrandy - March 27 - 7:33 pm

  I really like this car a lot. For the money, it is definitely the best choice out there. I got the 4 cylinder LX model in a manual transmission, and it has more than enough power. I was actually suprised at the acceleration for this base model engine. My only really complaint is the gas mileage is not as good as advertised. I do about 90% highway driving and I am only getting 22-23 mpg which isnt that bad considering it is a big car. But other than that, I would definitely recomend this car to anyone, especially taller people!

  Honest 30,000 mile review - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Honest Abe - March 21 - 1:30 am

  The good news, for the money, tough to beat. Lots of features, very good engines, excellent transmission, steady handling, tons of room, and still, very reliable. My mileage, is averaging about 28.5 mpg city/hwy combined. On the highway, I got as high as 32 mpg, and I drive somewhere between 75 and 80. However, like so many reviews, I too, have had a brake problem. Had to have the rotors turned at 25,000 miles, but that was it. Also road noise. Honda shouldve, not couldve, made this more quiet, but still not as terrible as described by so many others.
