Another Great Honda
I've had many Honda vehicles in my life including several motorcycles, the Ridgeline, an S2000, a Civic hybrid and now this Accord. Its safe to say I'm a fan but I write this objectively in order to hopefully provide feedback for prospective buyers. I was able to get into this fully loaded Accord and I couldn't be happier (I also intend to update throughout ownership). It feels as solidly built as any other Honda vehicle I have had, the previous best being my '06 Interceptor with the Ridgeline a close second. It is definitely the most advanced. It will be a while before I absorb the functionality of all the systems. Spectacular first impressions.
Love this Car
Realibility, performance and good looking .

100% Dependable and High Resale Value
I purchased this car new in December of 2011. Its now nine years old with 74k miles, and to date, it has never failed me. Tires, gas, a new battery, and oil changes are the only expenses I've ever had. I'm a happy Honda customer!!!

I love driving this car
The 5 speed manual sold me. This is an efficient, nicely appointed, comfortable car that just chugs along reliably. Not a lot of bells and whistles, but I can plug in my iPhone for music and books on tape, and navigation, which is all I really need. Big trunk, big enough back seat, very comfortable and adjustable front seats. The ride is a little choppy, but it gives lots of road feel, which I prefer.

A good basic car
What we have always loved about Honda's is that they will run forever with a minimum amount of repairs. You must keep all the fluids up the brakes and tires and fluids but if you do that the car will never let you down. Should go 180 to 200 K

Good quality, so so interior...love the manual
Since most cars in this size and price range are automatics and I wanted a manual, this was the car. The seats aren't too great though and it lacks basic options that most LX sedans would have like outside temp and gas mileage reading and maybe auto headlight settings. The manual is smooth as silk although the acceleration is poor. Once you are up and running on the the highway, the car performs nicely and handles good overall. I leased it and it's a good value so I may buy at the end of lease and sell on my own to make some money. It's not a keeper but good enough for now with Honda reliablility.
Sporty Family Sedan
The 2012 Honda Accord LX is your typical Honda with slight improvements. This is the 4th Honda I have driven (different generations) and probably one of the best ones. One of the immediate noticeable differences is the road noise. It is greatly reduced, however, still noticeable, just not as noticeable as your typical Honda (barring the 2012 Honda CRV, which has very low road noise). The 5 speed automatic transmission is very smooth and responsive, plus great gas mileage. I'm averaging approximately 30 miles per gallon with 60% highway/40% city driving. Handling is much more responsive and tighter than the 2012 Toyota Camry LE (which I drove for 3 months prior).
Best car I owned
This is the most reliable car I have ever owned. I did the basic routine maintenance (oil, brake pafs, tire rotation, etc).. other than that this car needed nothing for 180000 miles. Unfortunately I stuck a deer and totaled the car, otherwise I would have driven it another 180k.
