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.

  Fantastic car - 1991 Honda Accord
  By browillard - June 16 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car used with 145,000 miles in 2000. I have since put 45,000 more miles on it and is still performs like a dream. No major repairs needed. Replaced timing belt at 145,000. Routine maintainence is all that is needed. This car is extremely reliable, what can you say its a Honda!

  Wonderful - 2005 Honda Accord
  By sklr - June 15 - 7:56 pm

  Heated seats, auto up and down of driver side window...I love it all, its much better than my 03 Camry which had a very rough down-shift and a flaky airbag warning light.

  Lemon From Honda West in Las Vegas - 2008 Honda Accord
  By JM in Las Vegas - June 15 - 1:53 pm

  New Accord purchased from Honda West in Las Vegas. There is a major problem with it! Ive had it for 5 days and it needs a two day major service! The service adviser said it will be TAKEN APART in order resolve the problem. The dealership has not been responsive thus far. Since they lied to me when they tricked me into taking possession of the car (they said the issue was no big deal-easy fix), Im surprised. Ive had two other Accords. It might be that every 1 out of 3 are lemons? Beware of the 08 Accord and Honda West if you live in Vegas!

  Sugar town - 2003 Honda Accord
  By Sugar Town - June 13 - 9:20 am

  No complaints, it has been an excellent vehicle. The only thing that took getting used to was using the radio. Everything has been what you should expect out of a vehicle: predictable, reliable, & low maintenance requirements.

  Accord EX V6 AT w/ Leather & XM - 2006 Honda Accord
  By mdsded - June 13 - 4:43 am

  Wow, I finally let myself be swayed by Car & Drivers rating the accord a 10 best most every year. Great power, comfort, ride with exceptional record of reliability. Not inexpensive but not BMW pricelike either. Couldnt be more pleased with the purchase as value for the dollar and a vehicle thats just plain fun to drive while inspiring confidence is more than I could have hoped to get. Car & Driver knows what they are writing about and Im the beneficiary. Wohoo!

  better than expected - 1994 Honda Accord
  By regular guy - June 13 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car used from a very honest lady who even told me the A/C needed to be charged and the valve cover gasket needed replacement. I have driven this car for a couple of years, and outside: oil changes, valve adjustment and gasket (100 bucks), and charging the A/C (50 bucks) the car has been ultra reliable. The even more surprising thing is that the car is still fun to drive. It rides ultra smooth and is much faster than it feels. I am often at 80 mph on the freeway and dont even notice except for all of the cars I am passing up.
