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.

  Not worth 30K (incl interest on price) - 2010 Honda Accord
  By pakkya - October 17 - 11:40 am

  spacious, comfy but 30K+ is a lot to pay for a car of this quality; but given the other cars out there in the same price range and similar feature set, this seemed the best pick. Premium sound is not so premium - FM/AM reception on my 95 maxima is far superior, sounds like they forgot to put in the antenna for the radio. climate control fan is starting to sound like a 5$ fan u buy from walmart, it emits other sounds besides sound of air - havent been to the dealer yet

  Do yourself a BIG favor---get an Accord - 2008 Honda Accord
  By cousinvinney - October 16 - 2:56 pm

  The best dealership on the planet, and a car that is as close to perfect as you can get. I am negotiating a trade for another presently and the depreciation is minimal. I seriously doubt that I could lease for the price that I am about to trade. The car is superb, performance, styling, quality, engineering, fit and finish -the whole banana ! The only hiccup I can report is that I think that the seats in our 2008 Odyssey are a bit more comfortable. Dont get me wrong, the Accord is a comfortable car, I am just a big guy and the seats just feel like they could use a little more of something. Do yourself a favor and get one of these for yourself.

  I love the way this car drives. It accelerates quickly and easily. I often have to watch myself because Im doing 60 mph before I realize it. Highly recommended.

  Impressive Vehicle - 2003 Honda Accord
  By KTate - October 14 - 4:50 am

  Overall, I am thoroughly impressed with my Accord V6 Coupe. The power is addictive and I find myself speeding too frequently. The interior is well-designed with everything within reach. Cabin noise is moderate--its not as quiet as a Lexus, but the firm Acura-like ride does produce some road noise. Fuel mileage is average (about 20-22 mpg) but like I said, I drive it too fast. Its very comfortable to drive and driver fatigue hasnt been a problem--even on long trips. The Honda engineers have really thought of everything for a $27,000 car. It will definitely not be my last Honda.

  So excited about my new Honda - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Faith - October 13 - 12:56 pm

  It was a wonderful price and I really dont feel like Ive just purchased a car that is almost three years old. It is so comfortable! I have enough room for my children. It is fast and fun to drive!! Its a little too easy to speed though, because it runs so quietly! I think its a beautiful car. You cant go wrong with a Honda!

  One sweet car, once again - 2006 Honda Accord
  By Ron - October 13 - 5:40 am

  Had a 2004 LX and enjoyed it greatly.When I went to buy a new one in 2005 the price had gone up so much I bought a nice American car. Honda made a deal again this year, I am so glad to be back in a Honda. Fit, finish, handling & gas milage are unequalled in supposedly "comparable models."

  Love it - 2010 Honda Accord
  By Ed - October 13 - 12:30 am

  Bought my Honda in Dec 2009. Was deciding between the Toyota Camry and the Accord. I am very glad I chose the Accord. Havent run into any problems yet. Absolutely love the ride, handling. Road noise is not as bad as others say and havent had any problems with the brakes yet.

  Perfect, but not perfect - 2003 Honda Accord
  By younglawyer - October 12 - 2:00 am

  A bit big-and-bulky in its feel, combining the solidity of German steering with, well, rather pedestrian and comfortable performance. But the interior is absolutely perfect, the car is quiet, and, as an everyday car at this price, it is hard to imagine doing better.

  This car rocks! - 2004 Honda Accord
  By jcrichie - October 12 - 2:00 am

  I cant say enough about this car. It is super fast, fun to drive, and very well put together. I tried the new Maxima and the Passat prior to buying this car since my wife wanted a four door. Those cars are not even in the same league as the Accord in terms of performance. I compared apples-to- apples and drove a 6-speed Maxima and a manual Passat and those cars felt like they were stuck in mud. The Maxima sounded fast, but it is just too heavy to compete with the Accord. If you want pure driving enjoyment in a practical car, you cant go wrong with this Accord.

  I Love It - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Ex-Toyota Fan - October 11 - 6:53 pm

  First, let me say that I have been driving Toyota cars for the past 10+ years. I was on my way to replace my Camry with yet another Camry and decided to give the Accord a try. 4 hours later, I think I will be driving Honda cars from now on. First, the new Accord compared to the new Camry is no longer a matter of taste: the Accord is not only better, it is in a separate class altogether. Workmanship is better, materials are better, the EX-L has more options than the Camry XLE and is cheaper! Go figure. More fun to drive, no under steer and mushy brakes like the Camry... I simply love it.
