What a GREAT car!

2013 Honda Accord LX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
I don't know where to begin;
At 6ft+ I needed something bigger to drive, getting in and out of small cars sucks when you are tall. I also wanted decent MPG and good build quality. I have been shocked by both aspects in the new accord. The seats are comfortable, the MPG is awesome, 35MPG average today, and I have yet to break it in.
The clutch is smooth, and the shifter is one of the … best I have driven. The ride is quiet and refined and the fit and finish feel and look 40K dollar car like on a sub 20k dollar budget.

2013 Honda Accord LX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
Have 3000 miles on 2013 Honda Sedan, 6 spd trans. 60 years old and this is first Honda I've ever bought, wouldn't be the last if they build them all like this. Very impressive car. Runs great, smooth firm ride, handles like a BMW. Getting 33 MPG average w/36+ on freeways. Looked at the Jetta but liked the different standard features on the Accord better plus the Accord had a longer … wheelbase for the freeway. Had to get the upscale package on the Jetta to get the rear view camera and larger more powerful engine. Wife is mad, thought I was getting the coupe. Says she won't drive a granny 4 door car. Hard to look disappointed when you can't stop smiling.
Love the 6-speed ! Try one.

Locating a 6-spd LX was a frustrating experience. If you want one, be persistent, and check dealer inventories on line.
I love the smooth manual and engine combination. Our Accord offers a nice balance of comfort, quiet, MPG, performance, and modest cost. The ride is jittery, but it might be a price we pay for its truly crisp handling.
Such things as adjustable lumber support should … not be held hostage to another 2 grand for a "package", such things as power seats, moonroofs, and a silly useless spoiler.

Love this Car. Hate this Car

2013 Honda Accord LX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
At 77,000 miles, I am on my 2nd alternator and third starter. From the day I bought the car, I have had to keep close watch on the oil level. I use about a quart between oil changes.
Now for the good. I love driving the 6-speed manual. A curvy, hilly road between cities is actually fun to drive. It is a great road car, and in town, it goes quickly where I point it.
Honda built its … reputation on reliability. It seems they have given up control over parts, both original equipment and replacements, to some short-sighted corporate changes. Too bad. Not the Hondas we enjoyed in the 70's - 80's, folks.
