2009 Honda Accord LX-P 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5A)

I bought this car after a bad experience with a Hyundai. The Honda is head and shoulders above its Korean cousin. The Accord's handling and road manners are impeccable. Interior is roomy and very ergonomic. The engine is very responsive and smooth for a 4 cyl. Gas mileage is pretty good (currently getting 23 city/ 30 highway). Road noise is higher than other sedans in this class but not horrible. I expect that when I eventually replace the OEM Dunlops that road noise and handling will both improve. Trunk is not huge but big enough. Appearance is of course very subjective but to me the car looks an awful lot like a 5 series BMW. Fit and finish is without equal in this class and for around 20K
Recommend this car for performance

I purchased this vehicle a year ago and work with the same dealer, in Michigan,I have worked with over 15 years-Honda Bloomfield-these folks just get better and better! The 2009 Honda Accord's traction in winter snow and ice is phenomenal-best I've ever driven. I count on reliability in any car I drive and this vehicle provides outstanding reliability. Seating comfort needs to be upgraded and the road noise needs to be reduced to bring this vehicle to near perfect for a "smooth ride." I reliably get 33.3 miles a gallon in this 2009 Honda Accord.

My Accord is a terrific city car and once I figured out that I had to adjust my seat to be more straight backed than I had been used to, the seat became more comfortable for longer drives. The car remains solid, I have not yet had the rear brake problems others have noted and my overall gas mileage is around 25 MPG, not bad. This car handles beautifully for a fwd sedan, but the road noise is noticeable, Honda can do better. Overall, I really like this car but the seats and the road noise keep me from completely loving it. Build quality is excellent, there are absolutely no squeaks or rattles. I can tell this car will wear well over the years.

Purchased the car in Nov 2011 with 37K miles. It currently has 67K miles. It looks and drives great. It consistently gets 34-36 mpg on highway driving at 70mph. The feel and handling are great. Road noise is excessive and TOTALLY unacceptable and it is odd that at EX-L trim level, the car does not have a USB port. I have had zero issues with my Accord. No rattles and squeaks that some complain about. I do have the power steering whine that started about 40K miles., Replaced the evenly worn and still in good shape Michelin with GoodYear Assurance tires. No improvement in road noise. Both paint and interior are wearing well and have no complaints. This Accord is very low maintenance and the maintenance items are inexpensive. I will sell this Accord shortly. I have already bought a 2013 VW Passat SE with 28K miles for its improved road noise, Bluetooth audio and phone, and moving to an automatic.
