It's perfect for a second car. It has served me well. I'm buying one of the new cars with the safety features. Car has spent the last 8 winters in Florida.

So my 2008 Honda Accord I bought back in 2014 on my birthday with 76000 miles I paid close to $15,000 total after everything which I think was a fair price here we are 5 years later 2019 the car now has today 242,000 the car has been a very well taken care of and well-maintained by me and it has been a great car although I had to put some work into it but that is no surprise all cars need maintenance first major repair was a recall by Honda for oil consumption at 125000 miles to engine was reconstructed with new piston rings in new timing chain I changed the starter and a 175000 miles 200,000 miles I change to front ball joints into front axles around 230000 miles I change the alternator. Of course regular brakes rotors and tires I have done a lot in the city of Boston where I'm from but I also do a lot of Highway as well I have taken the car as far as the Florida Keys there and back drove perfect no problem so to sum it all up I am pleased with my vehicle it's the third car I've owned and I'm a Honda driver for life

Purchased my 2008 Accord EX-L sedan, 4-cyl, 5-speed automatic new in March 2008. It now has 130,000 miles on it and has been just a reliable as the 2002 Accord EX I had previously. Had the rear brakes replaced with the "new" Honda brake pads and have not had any issues. While it is not the perfect car, it has been very reliable, just like the 2002 was before. Had the complete service done at 105,000 miles and it runs like new. Not the quietest car, but the right tires make all the difference when it comes to road noise. I cannot justify replacing it, it runs too well.
Reliable car

Reading some of the reviews makes me wonder if I'm just lucky or if it has to do with people driving habits. I bought this car new in 2008, to date no major maintenance has been required. I have driven 70,000 miles and have not done anything other than oil changes and got new tires a month ago. Some people complained about the rattling near the back speakers which is a recall that was rectified when I first bought the car for free. Some complained about the brakes but I havent changed the brakes yet.

Great car, not excellent. No major problems after 96k miles. pluses are DECENT gas mileage. I get 27 combine with the 4cyl. very roomy, no mechnical failures. Good solid, dependable car. Minuses are the same as others (maybe my experiences arent quite as bad). i just put my 3rd set of rear brakes on. thats $260 worth. 2nd set of tires at 70k miles for $880 and a battery at 80k miles for $80. other than that its has been normal oil changes. I am slightly dissapointed with the paint, its not bad but i do a lot of highway driving and it doesnt hold up to the chips and bugs from the road. Paint seems very thin. also the center console bubbled on the leather, same as others.
