One of the greatest cars I've ever had!

Review

We've had this car now for over five years. It's been (and still is) a fantastic car! The sound system sounds great, even after eight years. The V6 engine makes it incredibly fun to drive. The only major mechanical problem we've had with the car was that the transmission went out about two years ago. Apparently this has been a problem for this particular Accord model. Honda replaced the transmission for free because the car had less than 100,000 miles on it. The only other complaint we've had with the car was that the leather on the driver's seat started cracking about four years after we bought the car. Other than that, it still runs and looks great

Favorite Features

V6 engine, audio controls on the steering wheel, sunroof, sound system, comfort, power seat, trunk space, "Homelink" system, reliability, sporty look, remote trunk opener, easy to read gauges, high resell value, great gas mileage, and overall durability.

Suggested Improvements

Nothing really. The transmission going out was a big problem, but, as I said, Honda replaced it for free. The quality of leather could be improved to prevent wear and tear from the constant use of the driver's seat.

Review

This is my first Honda. Impressed w/reliability. Short of routine maintenance and replacing the timing belt, it's hassle-free. Drives the same as we bought it 5 years ago. I'm truly impressed w/Japanese cars, and would buy another again in the future. Low emission, and best value!

Favorite Features

Drive quality, handling and reliability.

Suggested Improvements

The A/C could be cooler. A moonroof would be nice in the SE trim. Nice seats, quality made, but a little too firm especially on long trips.

Review

This is my second Honda Accord. The first one I purchased was a 1998 4 cyl. which I drove for close to 200,000 miles without a problem. The most recent purchase is a 2000 v6 which gets decent mpg and seems to be just as reliable as my last one. I would recommend this car over any Audi A4, Volvo, or any other luxury car in its price range. Even though the styling and other people's perception of the car is not as high, the dependabilty more than makes up for the thousands you will spend keeping the others on the road for more than 100,000 miles.

This car sold me!

Review

We bought this car used with 16,000 miles for my husband to commute with. Now has 128,000, runs like the day we purchased. We only replaced the drivers side window motor and NOTHING else! This has been a great car worth every penny. I was driving a 2000 Volvo V70 that was a nightmare. Finally after beaucoup repairs and $$$ we agreed it had to go. My husband was stunned when I said that I wanted a Honda. Mine being the family truckster we purchased an 06 Pilot and Blows that Volvo away. Thank God it's gone! I'm sure his Accord will probably stay in the family and end up being my daughters first car. We are very, very pleased with both our Accord and Pilot.

Favorite Features

Excellent sales and service department. Fuel economy and reliabily is huge for us. Lots of storage and huge trunk. Very comfortable in front and back. Lots of pep and fun to drive. Great car for the money. We have no regrets and will buy another Accord with hesitation.

Suggested Improvements

Floor shift should be lighted as well as dash. Headlight lamp covers faded and doesn't look good anymore. Headliner is starting to fall in rear. Longevity needs to be address on these items.

Review

I am a living testament about the reliability of this car. Bought in 2000 and lost this car in 2006 in a wreck, not at fault. I put 134k in 6 years in extreme winter conditions. This car did not give a single issue in any weather, summer, winter below 0, conditions. With out an issue, I drove 180 miles daily on this for 6 months – icy, snowy conditions of WI. Only thing I did was regular oil change and scheduled maintenance. Most of all, impact at around 35 mph, Accord’s front and Malibu 06 rear right, my young son in the back seat (WEARING SEAT BELTs) – we walked away from the scene without a single scratch. If this car has factory suggested maintenance history, I will suggest buying it.

Favorite Features

Good fuel economy, reliability in all aspects. Important safety features come standard.

Suggested Improvements

Good sound systems.

After several crappy cars, bought my daughter this 2000 EX model with 4 cyl. Great car, good MPG, Zero problems, Nice interior with leather and wood, little 4cyl has surprising power.

Favorite Features

Wood dash, Nice stereo, fold down rear seat, nice alarm/remote. Everything works !

Suggested Improvements

Ride is tight, thats good and bad. Never really gets the mpg factory claims but I drive it hard. Heated seats would have been nice.

Review

This car is appraised so much for its reliability...well its body hardware is horrible and there are better cars. There is 115k miles on mine, but still...they're supposed to keep running...something electrical keeps going wrong...

Favorite Features

well the 5 speed manual and the moonroof are cool.

Suggested Improvements

Mechanical, making the body better structurally and electrical stuff

Review

This car is proclaimed as the best, however, I bought it used with 110,000 miles in July 2006. I expected it to be excellent and it is. The only problem is that everybody has it. It may look good, but I think that with few modifications such as the wheels off of the V6, and a spoiler, then this car will be great.

Favorite Features

5 Speed manual, comfort, sportiness

Suggested Improvements

Could have a lot more power. Even with stick, i run a 8.8 to 60. Could be better with space too.

Review

I purchase this car with 70k mi and now have 180k mi. I must say Honda does built quality cars, but there are issues. It is well known about the transmission issue. I had mine replaced at 120,000 and Honda shared the cost with me, no complaints there. The transmission still has a very weird shifting pattern, always has, always will. Wind noise from the front windows is a factor, but I understand updated molding from Honda corrects this. Love the leather interior and overall quality of cabin,(nothing rattles). Bland look on outside, but it is a family sedan.

Favorite Features

quality driving experience, feels solid. Audio control knobs on wheel. Air Side bags(way to go H)

Suggested Improvements

Transmission needs better shifting pattern. Intermittent windshield wipers stop when at red stop light, then resume when you press the accelerator(I hate that) EGR ports clogs every 60K mi are so.

I Love My '00 Honda

Review

I purchased my first Honda Accord 3 years ago. I was going through a divorce and told my salesperson that I needed a vehicle that would be dependable, low maintenance, safe and have good gas mileage. He recommended a '92 Honda Accord that was on his lot. I kept it for the weekend to test drive it, and I loved it! I was so impressed with the car, that when my son got his driver's license and I passed my car to him, I knew that I definitely wanted my new car to be another Honda Accord. It has everything you could want in a car. I have 100,000 miles on my car and I just got back from a 3,000 mile road trip. Not once did I ever doubt my car's reliability or safety. I love It!

Favorite Features

Beautiful body style, sleek and stylish; high grade leather interior; smooth driving, hugs the road, great acceleration; interior design provides comfortable access to all dash controls, console, door, seat and steering wheel controls and also overhead features; massive trunk space; side-air bags

Suggested Improvements

Slightly more lower lumbar support in driver's seat
