Used 2013 Honda Accord Sedan Consumer Reviews
Been fantastic so far.
I bought my 2013 Accord LX 3 months ago with 120k. I've put about 5,000 miles on it already and I'm very happy this far. The K24W1 is peppier than I'd expect for a 4 banger and the 6 speed manual feels exactly like a Honda manual should, tight and notchy. The suspension is comfortable without being soft, and it still handles decently well. The cargo space is pretty good, and maintenance access is all pretty easy for the most part (except the fuel filter). My only real complaint is that MPG isn't as good as I'd expect for a 4 cylinder with me averaging 25 pretty consistently with mixed driving, but I am admittedly a bit of a lead foot, so I won't rag on it too much.
Fantastic mileage marred by horrible seats
Switching to this car from my 1999 Nissan Maxima, I expected to be disappointed on handling and performance. The handling has been a pleasant surprise, as the car drives like many far more expensive sports sedans that I've driven. Performance was as expected, like a 4 cylinder with a rubber band transmission, but it is especially disappointing getting onto expressways. The seats are brutal. My wife, who has back issues but is comfortable in our 2010 Odyssey, 2002 Toyota Avalon, and 2022 Toyota Sienna, simply cannot ride in any seat in this car. The headrests force you into looking at your knees, the seats feel like cardboard with a plywood backing. I wanted to love this car, but I can't wait to be rid of it.

Greatest Sedan ever no matter the year
This is the greatest car I've ever owned and I plan to run it till it drops. With regularly scheduled maintenance if lasts longer than 500,000 miles and beyond that is great for me. No plans to sell or trade this piece of beauty

2013 Accord EXL --a great car.
My 2013 Accord EXL has been a great car. I have 65000 miles to date and the only expenses have been for tires; batteries; oil changes/filters and brakes (once). Highway gas miles are 33 -36 mpl. But that's what i expected from Honda. I still own a 2001 Civic w 89000 miles and the only major repair was a timing belt!!

Honda Driver for LIFE
I absolutely love my Accord, this my third one and I wanted this generation (9th gen 2013-17) because it is the only generation of Honda's that have LaneWatch - which might seem silly but I use it more to just be extra aware of my surroundings. I owned my previous Accord (07 LX Sedan) for 6 years and after driving and researching I will always drive Honda. They hold their value, excellent safety, and they have a little pep so it's not boring to drive. The only thing I would change is if I could get my car but with a V6 6-Speed, either way I'm keeping this car for at least 5 more years or longer!
