  6 spd Accord Coupe - 2008 Honda Accord
  By cstiles - April 3 - 10:36 am

  Ive owned several Accords and this one has more power and refinement, and is the largest version Ive owned. Lots of power with the 6 spd, and the car has a great balance of style, performance, and (so far) reliability. Highly recommend the V6 coupe with the manual transmission.

  Fun, wonderful car to live with - 2008 Honda Accord
  By ivan - March 23 - 11:00 am

  Have this one since Nov-2007. Went to LA three times, able to drive 95 mph on tight corner for speed limit 55mph. Wish to upgrade to 19" wheels. Gas mileage is disappointed, avg 20 mpg so far. Noise level is too high for $30K car. Honda engineers must solve this problem ASAP. Get rid of cylinder deactivation on coupe, it actually slows down when try to accelerate. Driving and handling are top of the class (Altima is very close competitor). No live traffic on its navi (Altima has that feature, but resale value is horrible for Nissan products). Fit and Finish are excellent

  Nice car, bad breaks - 2008 Honda Accord
  By krisroh1 - March 23 - 3:53 am

  Had to replace my rear breaks at 22k miles. According to Honda it is normal. I get about 24 MPG and 7500-9000 miles per oil change. Tires are in great condition after 34k miles on them, should last another 30-35k.

  Grown on me - 2008 Honda Accord
  By ljgbjg - March 16 - 9:56 pm

  We have the car 6 months. Initially the VCM was horrible - constantly hunting, vibrating, etc. much like others here and as reviewed elsewhere. MPG? Not great - around 25. At 3000 miles it all went away! Have no idea why. VCM hardly noticeable, 30 MPH HWY at 75, 26 at 80, so 75 seems to be a significant speed. Seats are firm but not uncomfortable - very BMW like. You either like them or you dont. Advise anyone considering the L to drive one for awhile if you can - some cannot stand the seats. Check the Edmunds long term test comments - they hate them. Car is now very pleasant and performing as expected. None of the squeaks, rattles or wind noise that others have complained of.

  2008 LXP Accord 177 hp 4 Door - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Jersey Rob - March 13 - 4:33 pm

  This is my first Japanese car. Great car to drive hold the road very good and steering is tight. After driving it for a few months I found the seats are tough on the lower back on long runs and it need a few more inches to go back. Fuel mileage is disappointing 15/18 city 22/26 hwy. winter/summer. Very cheap paint and clear coat very chip happy. Good thing its leased for only 2 more years.

  On the Mark! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Peachy - March 13 - 6:03 am

  The 2008 Honda Accord EX-L V6 is an ideal combination of comfort, economy, and pleasure! I have owned either a Mercedes or BMW for my last 3 cars and find the Honda as an ideal alternative to the high cost of ownership of those German automobiles. No, the Honda does not have the anti-sway of those vehicles in high-cornering speeds, but it is more comfortable. I have two herniated disks and the seats of the Honda have alleviated the pain in my legs and back when I drive. I owned a 1994 Honda EX and must admit that this new Accord is like the difference between watching regular and HDTV. Wow, a product that actually exceeded my expectations! Give this car consideration if you want a near-luxo.

  Would not buy again - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Rick Kirchoff - March 3 - 8:20 am

  This car lacks the performance and handling of previous years. Gas mileage is horrible too, 20 mpg city/highway after 6000 miles. Passing gear seldom works when needed. Drivers seat is not fully adjustable using 8-way power seat which is very uncomfortable. Shift- hold-control prevents coasting after hard acceleration. Reminds me of driving a boat, have to think several miles ahead if you want to do something. Car is not as nimble- footed as previous years. Daytime running lights..yuck!!! Automatic mirror dimming does not work during daylight hours and performs poorly at night.

  Awesome Car!! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Erawan Sujana - February 27 - 2:43 am

  I bought it on May 2008. This is my 2nd car after my 97 2D Toyota Tercel which was I bought from my friend was getting old and worn out. I was really impressed when I test drove it for the first time. It is really smooth drive. The interior and exterior are nice. I will keep this car. The gas mileage is awesome. Some reviewers were complaining about gas mileage. I dont see anything wrong it if you obey the speed limit and use cruise control on the highway. I can play my iPod because it came out with the aux jack. What I dont like from this car was the engines emission system is very sensitive.

  MPG is awful - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Loyal to Honda - February 20 - 12:50 pm

  This is my 7th Honda and 4th Accord. The car rides better than previous generations. However, I cannot get better than 23 miles to the gallon, even on the highway! I drive the same way I did in my 2004 Accord that got 33 MPG. I expect much more from Honda. The dealership said everything checks out, so it is just the way they built the car. Too bad. As much as I love Hondas, they can never seem to get everything working at the same time.

  Best Accord Ever - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Westies96 - February 20 - 6:06 am

  I have had many Accords and got the 2003 when they first came out with that model change. This car looks, feels, and rides like a much more expensive car. It looks and rides like an Acura RL or a Lexus. The new 190HP 4cylinder engine has great pick up. You feel like youre floating on the highway and have great control over the car. Honda far surpassed Toyota (Camry) and Nissan (Altima) when they created this vehicle. Ive only had my car for 4 days and already have almost 400 miles on it. It gives you a reason to have to travel somewhere. There is so much room in the cabin.When you sit in the drivers seat, you feel like you have all this car around you. It is a very safe feeling.
