Fuel Efficiency is great, very reliable, runs like and better than it's European competition and you pay $10k less. Roomy back seats, passengers have said they feel like their riding on a cloud due to the smooth ride.

This is my last Honda ever .I have been a loyal client for years .The compressor is badly located make in sustainable to damage by small stones .Many clients have similar issues .My Accord had 29,000 miles when the problem started (still under warranty).Dealer added more refrigerant and told me there is no leaks which was a lie .The problem resurfaced again a year later (at least when we noticed it (we live in WI and AC usage is minimal).This time the 3 years have passed and no warranty .Repair cost $1,500

I purchased this vehicle as the second owner in 2015. Coming from Nissan, I was wanting more reliability and Honda succeeded with this car. I bought the car at 20k miles. Since I've purchased the car, I started changing things out at 50k miles, from changing the springs to Eibach pro kit, AEM cold air intake, custom tune; tuned with ktune and ATLP J-pipe. This car has no oil burn and no motor knock at 89k, I drive the car daily. Interior pieces have held up great.

Still the best bang 4 the $

I drive rentals for work. I have driven everything under the sun. The best overall car in the class is clearly the Accord sedan. We love the heated seats so we did the EX-L model. We love it so much I am upgrading my 2013 to a 2017 due to enhanced safety features on the 2017. So far I’m not impressed with the 2018 redesign so I’ll pass for now and stick with this geration. Seating is comfortable and everything is intuitive. The only thing this model lacks is a awd option.

I purchased this car in late June of 2015 when it had about 26K miles on the odometer. When I purchased this as a Honda certified used car the car I bought a 7 year, 120K warranty along with it. Honda offers amazing warranties on Certified used cars - all of the work is done by local Honda dealers and you don't have to deal with 3rd party warranty companies who are trying to rip you off. So far I have had only 2 minor issues with the car - one was a wheel bearing that went bad, and the other was a broken cable (speed sensor). Both were fixed under warranty - and a suspect that the speed sensor cable was broken by the shop that did my tire rotation (it happened right after I had this done). As far as maintenance, I've had everything but the tires done at my local Honda dealer. Tires were replaced at about 46K. Other than oil/filter changes that only other maintenance has been a battery replacement, the front brake pads were replaced, and the brake fluid was flushed/replaced. The rear brake pads will be replaced in a few months and the transmission will be flushed. As far as the performance of this car goes, it's a great all-around car that is well-engineered. In city driving (Dallas) I get about 25-27 mpg - it goes to about 35 mpg on highway trips. The cabin is comfortable and I don't notice the wind noise some people have complained about in other reviews. Oh - and the six speed manual transmission. This is why I bought the car. It's a joy to drive and it allows you to get the most out of the engine (which is also a great 4 cylinder piece of machinery). Personally I love manual transmissions, and this is one of the best out there. Manual Accords are somewhat rare - but if you can find one and you like driving this is the way to go.
