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.

Happy Honda Owner - 2007 Honda Accord

Perfect balance of fun and function! - 2008 Honda Accord
By D&N Stone - March 16 - 8:56 pmAfter researching and driving many different vehicles, we choose the Honda Accord V-6 4 door sedan. Why? Because is has the perfect balance of the things we were looking for without sacrificing any one feature. The 4- door provides the room we needed, the exterior design keeps the "sedan" from looking boring, the gas mileage is great, the price point was right, and the reliability is terrific. We are thrilled with our new car. Kudos to Honda - they got this one right!

Dont Wait - 2008 Honda Accord
By What a Car - March 16 - 3:43 pmI just traded in a 2008 Honda Accord 4cyl for this 6cyl, let me tell you its night and day. The 4cyl was loud and a litte harsh, the 6cyl is a thing of beauty and the smoothness of it is unbelieveable. If you can afford it, definately get the six cyl. When you test drive these cars do yourself a favor and take both models out and youll see what I mean. I bought the Exl version and its perfect for all the features you get. The car rides beautifully but at the same time you feel the road. Ive bought over 20 cars in my life and I can tell you this car is by far the best of all.

So far, so good - 2017 Honda Accord
By Jason Green - March 14 - 4:17 pmIve owned this vehicle for one month now, and so far it seems to be a good investment. Driving is easy, and acceleration is very smooth: engine RPMs barely get above 3k when accelerating from a stop light, and the car gets up to speed easily with very little struggle (compared to my previous 2013 hybrid that red lined while accelerating to 45 mph). The interior is very quiet and comfortable with good visibility. Love the Honda sensing with the camera on the passenger side - very helpful when passing vehicles on the highway or making sure youre parking close enough to the curb. I wish I had a camera on the drivers side as well! Adaptive cruise control works great - the furthest distance setting provides a very comfortable 3-second following range which is a bit far in some driving situations. The closest distance setting is also comfortable, giving about a one-second following distance. Love the lane keeping system - when off, it gives you a visual warning when you are departing your lane; when on, it helps to gently guide you to the center of your lane - the car almost drives by itself! And the lane departure is a gentle reminder - some cars I test drove nagged at you when you started to leave your lane, and it could be quite distracting. It has pretty good smartphone integration - if I plug my Android phone into the USB port, I can use Google navigation thats on my phone (and it automatically shows up on the console screen) - that saved me a few hundred bucks since I didnt have to buy the trim with navigation (and Google maps is generally more user-friendly than most car navigation systems). I also have access to music on my phone and Amazon music. You can also use Pandora or other streaming services or use Hondas "A-Ha" music app. I can get phone calls through the car speakers, but I havent figured out how to get text messages read to me (possibly a limitation of my phone and not the car). Android Auto will also read my emails to me once the vehicle is parked. Overall, very good technology and integration that Ive only just begun to explore. Other notes: - Fold down rear seats are only operable from the trunk, and you cant access the trunk from the back seat. This provides the opportunity to securely lock the trunk so the valet driver cant get in without the key. You can also lock out the glove compartment so you need the physical key to get in. - Rear seat room is comfortable, even for a 63" adult. - This trim level has two center dashboard screens - the upper screen cycles between music info, trip info, or an uploaded photo & clock. You also have the option to combine music info and trip info on the same screen. The lower display is a touch-screen where you can control music, cell phone, Android Auto features (e.g. navigation) and trip info (trip mph and duration, including previous trips) - seems a bit redundant though to have the same trip or music info displayed on both the upper and lower screens. - Below the bottom touch screen are simple, easy to operate dual-zone climate controls that keep the passenger compartment very comfortable. - Car has a number of driving modes. The transmission itself has "Drive" and "S" (which I assume means "Sport," but its not defined in the owners manual as a "Sport" mode). "S" gives you a little more power for faster starts, probably at the expense of fuel economy at highway speeds. "S" is also used for models with paddle shifters, for towing, for increased engine braking, or in hilly terrain. Drive, I assume, gives you the advertised 185 hp and 181 ft-lbs torque. You also have an "Econ" button: Econ mode restricts both the climate system and engine power to maximize fuel economy. The A/C doesnt blow as hard, and it takes a bit longer to cool the vehicle on warm days. I suppose you could drive in Sport mode with Econ activated, but it seems like it would be counter productive. I generally leave the car in drive with Econ mode activated, and it seems to do fine, even on the hottest summer days. Ive had no problem with acceleration or speed while in Econ mode, though Ive noticed that with cruise control on, the vehicle slows a bit when going up hills, and it doesnt return to the ordered speed as aggressively. I suppose if you want something a little more responsive, either dont use Econ mode, drive with the transmission in "Sport," or buy the V-6 or sport model. With about 900 miles on the car, Im getting around 38 combined mpg (its advertised as having 27/36 mpg & 30 mpg combined). Most of my driving is on the highway. Overall, a very good mid-size sedan. While it doesnt have all the luxury features that are out there, it is very well equipped, and very well made. And if buying a domestic vehicle is on your agenda, my previous Ford was built in Mexico, but this Honda was built in Ohio. I probably put more groceries on tables in America with this car purchase than with my "domestic" Ford.

Lots of Good Stuff - 2008 Honda Accord
By Rajkumar - March 14 - 4:00 amDriving the 8th Generation Driving Machine is not too smooth (like Altima or Camry) but feels the same good old Accord (the manly drive feel). Lots of power in the new machine at 2600 RPM I made 80 MPH (of course more power) than the previous Accords. Wonderful to drive.

High Performance Accord - 2003 Honda Accord
By Dionne - March 12 - 10:00 amOne of the first things you notice when you hit the road is the swift acceleration of the 6 cylinder engine. It is clearly superior to the 4. When the wife is a little cold, you dont have to get a little warm. Because, the dual A/C settings are in place. Seat warmers are handy when your sitting in the soft comfortable leather seats. The 6 CD changer is in dash and convenient. Plus, you have the resale value of a Honda. We are very happy.

RATTLES EVERYWHERE - 2003 Honda Accord
By CTBuyer - March 12 - 10:00 amI bought my 03 Accord LX Sedan 4 cylinder about 2 months ago. Within the first 100 miles I stated noticing rattles from the front windshield - but only in cool weather. Within a day or two, I noticed rattles from the drivers side front door - and then the passenger front door. Then the drivers side sun visor started rattling. Now the doors creak whenever I accelerate from a stop. Well... you get my drift? This car is great - minus the rattles. I have not yet brought it in. Im worried if they start pulling it apart, itll be worse than it is. I somehow think I would have been better off with the Camry - even if it is boring!

Impressive Effort Equals VW and Acura!! - 2003 Honda Accord
By BLC - March 12 - 10:00 amPast vehicles: Acura 3.5RL (too sedate) 98 Passat (too trouble prone), an 01.5 Passat (good car) and most recently an 02 A4 Turbo (frequent electical problems). This Accord is stylish compared to them. The new interior has a more luxurious feel (wood/leather) compared to the stark Audi style. This is my first ever automatic, and the 5 speed is very smooth, yet downshifts accurately when power is applied. VERY quiet cruiser. Not a sports sedan in the German sense, but a competent family sedan with tons of room and amenities that rival Acura. Honda must have torn apart a Passat and cross-bred it with the 3.2TL.
