2012 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 4dr Sedan w/Navigation (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
the honda accord is one of the best cars I have ever owned. I have the 2012 EX-L V6 with NAVI. the V6 is a very snappy engine! I definitely recommend this engine!!!!!!! it gets you on the highway fast!. I know people make you think the seats are absolutely horrible, but they aren't. I could drive 12 hours without any problems. this car is awesome and so reliable!!!!!!! you definitely … get what you pay for!!!!!!! We havent had any problems with it besides a check engine light and faulty sensor. (only a 100 dollar fix) the handleing is awesome! it is so responsive, it practically drives itself! a very sporty car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hope you find this helpful!
Great acceleration and ride but NOISY on The Road

2012 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 4dr Sedan w/Navigation (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
This car has been a real luxury for the last seven years and has required very little maintenance over and above normal wear and tear. My only complaints are .... 1. The car has a lot of road noise even for a 2012 model and in spite of putting much quieter tires and adding sound deadening material for the after half of the body. 2. Don’t even bother to get the expensive updates to … the navigation system. The onboard maps are already a couple of years out of date. We normally only use Google maps on our iPads. In addition searching it’s listing for places is woefully inadequate. However after saying all of the negatives, my wife and I thoroughly enjoy the ride, comfort, control, and the power from the V6 engine. If only Honda would keep up with the technology and the noise canceling available in its competition and reserved for the Acura, we would buy another Accord in a heartbeat. Instead, we will transition to an Audi sedan later this year.
Back Problems

2012 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 4dr Sedan w/Navigation (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Since I bought my Accord at the end of February, I have had lower back problems for the first time in my life.
I have had to take a leave of absence to undergo epidural steroid injections.
It wasnt until a recent long trip that I made the connection, When it was my turn to drive any lengthy amount of time, the pain returned just the same as the first case of back trouble.
I cant go … through this pain again and have nothing else to drive.
Contacted Honda....we will see.
MOST UNCOMFORTABLE CAR EVER - DON'T BUY !

2012 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 4dr Sedan w/Navigation (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
We have owned this car for 3 Weeks and myself and my husband now both have back problems due to the driver's seat in the vehicle.
It is complete torture to drive this car for more then 20 minutes at a time.
When you test drive it for 5-10 minutes you will not notice it but if you drive it for 20 minutes+ you will soon realize just how bad the seat design for back support is as well as … the awkward positioning of the headrest.
We called the dealer within 24 hours to try & return but they were not of any assistance
