Owned a 2000 Accord and was so pleased with it that I purchased a 2004. I like the exterior design much better and the interior is much nicer as well. Nothing compares to the reliability of the Accord as well as the fit and finish. The car handles very well and the road visibility is superior to all others I test drove. I highly recommend this vehicle if you are looking for a sporty reliable vehicle that is roomy enough to double as the every day family car as well.

Was hit in right front by driver passing light. Airbag (side and seat) deployed perfectly. No significant injury in hard hit. Happy to have the side airbags. Very user friendly and ergonomic controls, best I have ever had. Stiff ride, could be a bit lighter sprung for comfort, but may impede handling. Has a "big" feel, not a sporty small car feel. 5 speed is not smooth, and downshifts when braking are noticeable. Air comes on with a clunk when first put on. Brakes are feathery and needs a light touch, same with accelerator, but stops and goes well. Acceleration is very good with automatic, highway ride is smooth and sure footed.

The car an 2005 ex V6 with leather is a very comfortable car. The only the I would do if I bought another car with leather is treat the leather seats because they are rough and hard. My wife sat down with buttons on her pockets and scratched the leather. Once a week with armoral leather wipes does the job.

Great, but not fantastic.

I really did like this car. I loved the styling, the luxury appointments, the smooth and responsive feel from the 4 cylinder, the roominess and the sensible layout of the dash. What I didn’t like was the gas mileage. No matter how easily or lightly I drove it, the mileage never got above 25 mpg on the highway. This is an engine known for its reliability (check), smooth and powerful performance (check), and longevity (check). My dad had a 2004 Honda Element with the exact same engine and it got the same mileage. My Accord should’ve been getting in the 30’s on the highway. I tried using higher grade fuel, got a fuel system cleaning, but nothing worked. I also thought the leather seats should’ve been a little softer. After a long trip, my tailbone would be hurting. I asked other Accord owners what they thought of theirs and they loved them. Like I said, my only gripes were firm seats and gas mileage. Other than that it was one of my favorite cars. I followed that one up with a 2006 Civic EX that was wonderful.

This car is simply amazing. Everything from the leather seats to the XM radio is wonderful. The performance from the 4 cyl. is more than adequate, no need to spend extra for the v6. A complete pleasure to own and drive.
