The best
210,000 miles and it's still clicking. Regular maintenance done every 100,000 - timing belt and water pump. The V6 has lots of pep, still get 30-32 on the highway, mucho comfort with the leather power seats.
Veee Tech!
I've had my coupe for about a year now, and I like it more as each day goes by. This car performs very well when asked, yet is mild mannered in most driving situations. It still feels very solid and well made despite some minor squeaks and rattles that seem to travel around the interior. The car has been rock solid in terms of reliability. I don't baby the car driving wise, but give it regular mechanical, interior, and exterior maintenance. By the way, if you're looking for some fun, switch off the traction control and go looking for some unexpecting teenage civic (with the 10 in. diameter exhaust pipe) drivers.

I recently bought the 2001 2dr V-6 EX model and let me tell you it's awsome!! The acceleration is amazing, handling is great: turns on a dime, extremely reliable. strongly reccomend this car
The Honda bulletproof liability falls short
I did buy this vehicle used from a honda dealership. I was not aware of the transmission issues this car had until well after the 30 day warranty expired. When I bought the car, it mileage was approaching 139k. Now, here's my dilemma. I have a 1998 Acura Integra with well over 370000 mile and not yet have I ever had a transmission issue. Accord because I would have to be a car. I was really hoping for the same reliability. That did not happen. After doing some research, found that between 1998 - 2002 that this vehicle have transmission issues. I'm not blaming the vehicle or any of the previous owners for the issues. Nor am I blaming the manufacturer because I should have follow my instincts and garden a 5-speed manual transmission rather then the automatic. So that's my bad other than that the car was amazing. For a car of it's age in mileage, the ride quality was really good. Very easy and after the shift into 3rd gear, very fun to drive. If I'm honest, I would not have traded this car in for the current car I have now (2009 Subaru Tribeca/ I've written a review on this car as well) if the transmission wasn't failing.

Very Impressed
Used to drive a 93 Honda Civic sedan and this car feels like a luxury car next to the civic. Don't get me wrong, i kind of wish i still had the civic b/c of todays gas prices but overall, this car is a nice change. The V6 engine is so unbelievably smooth but it is also FAST, and chirping the front tires at a stoplight is not a difficult thing to do. I love the handling as well, I have also driven a Toyota Camry and that car feels downright mushy next to the accord. I am a bit concerned with the failing transmissions with this generation but i recently had the fluid flushed and it has shifted smoothly since I bought it. I bought this car from the orig owner and I'm very pleased with it.
