2000 Honda Accord Review
Summary
What Edmunds.com says
No question as to why the Accord is one of the top-selling cars in America. It's simply good.
Pros
Great build quality, spacious interior, peppy yet clean engines, comfortable seats, excellent resale value, reputation for bulletproof reliability.
Cons
Everybody drives one, personality of Al Gore, taut highway ride.
What's New for 2000
The four-cylinder engines now have a 100,000-mile no-tune-up service life. Side airbags are standard for all V6 models and EX four-cylinders with the leather interior. The feature-laden 2000 Honda Accord SE Sedan makes its debut this year. In the paint department, Nighthawk Black replaces Starlight Black, and Naples Gold Metallic replaces Heather Mist Metallic; Raisin and Currant have been dropped.

2000 Honda Accord 4 Dr LX Sedan
Review
My faithful 2000 Honda Accord LX 4 cyl auto has just hit 211,000 after nine years of ownership when I bought it new. It has never had a failure or unscheduled service of any kind during that time. There really isn't anything more to say. I'll swap it in this year for a new Accord, but I'll miss it.
Favorite Features
Reliability, comfortable seat, ergonomic controls. Did I mention reliability?

2000 Honda Accord 4 Dr EX Sedan
Review
I have 265,000 miles on my Honda and it still drives great. I have only done oil changes and replaced the tires. I recommend people to consider getting a Honda or at least trying one before buying.

2000 Honda Accord 4 Dr EX V6 Sedan
Review
I have had this car for about 9 years now, and I have to say, I fell in love with it from the very beginning. Immediately when you get in, the interior feels grand. You don't get that cheap feeling at all. Start the engine up and rev it a little to get your blood pumping. It is by no means a sports car, but the V6 version is definitely sporty for a family sedan. 0-60 is about 7.9 seconds, and you can really feel the 200 horses kick when you reach 3500 rpm and Vtec kicks in. As far as ride quality goes, I have no complaints. Turns are maneuvered impressively, the cabin is amazingly quiet, even at highway speeds, and the huge seats feel great. This is an overall perfect car.
Favorite Features
Love the power and performance and the quality of the ride. I am more of an enthusiast than a "errand driver" and this car is really fun to just go around town in.
Suggested Improvements
Driver seat controls are very slow since they are electronic. Would have preferred manual levers that get the job done quickly.
2000 EX V6 was Honda's best model

2000 Honda Accord 2 Dr EX V6 Coupe
Review
My 2000 Honda has been fun to drive and the maintenance which I has only been done by Honda for the entire life of the car, hence there is a record of all maintenance done on the car for anyone wishing to check it out. Clean and maintained properly. Really not sure that I will sell it but at the moment I am looking at doing so. All mileage has been on a local bases with the exception of trips to and from relocation areas. This is one of Honda's best cars done in 2000. Just recently got a letter from Honda on their Premier Program for 2000 Hondas. It appears that there is a great demand for this model year. Makes me think maybe I should keep the car.
Favorite Features
With a V6 the driving is very smooth and quiet. Acceleration is its highest attribute. Especially on the interstate where one doesn't realize how fast they may be going. Its fun to drive and really speaks for itself.
Suggested Improvements
The body is in good shape a few dings from irresponsible people who dinged the side. General overall wear is very good. Body style is what has impressed me as its the only year that Honda really did a great job on the body style. All others are not as good, including the 2008. Just look pictures

2000 Honda Accord 4 Dr SE Sedan
Review
I bought my Accord brand new in July 2000. I have put 158,000 trouble-free miles on it. I cannot say enough about this car. It recently suffered some pretty severe damage in a hail storm, so I am stuck driving a 2007 Chrysler Sebring while it is in the shop. I miss my car so much. My "old" Honda would absolutely kick the Chryslers! I will never buy anything but a Honda. It drives wonderfully, is reliable, and has proven to be a very safe car. Rear-ended by a Ford Mustang a couple years ago. Only a couple scrapes on the bumper, the Mustang did not fare as well. The only things I don't like are 1. the transmission hesitates to shift in stop-and-go traffic and 2. brakes could be better.
Favorite Features
Steering - perfect weighting, very smooth and precise. Reliability, of course. And, I personally think it is a beautiful car - simple, clean lines.
Suggested Improvements
Transmission programming. All Hondas seem to have a problem in stop-and-go traffic. The transmission does not shift from 2nd to 1st until you almost come to a complete stop. If you get back on the gas, it hesitates and then slams into gear. Trans. has lasted 158k though. Needs more powerful brakes.
