For $19.3k I think I got a terrific manual Accord. But only 600 miles so far, can't speak to reliability. I preferred the Accord's manual stick to the Mazda 6 manual stick. I swapped OEM tires out for Continental PureContact Eco Plus and was surprised at improved handling and even quieter ride. Much quieter ride than the Mazda 6. This is important to me, I like handling but low profile tires are a liability in the NE with its potholes. And the handling is plenty great with 16" rims.
I like it better every day

I purchased my black Accord Sport as a "leftover" 2014 in October of 2014. As of late March 2015, I have driven the car for 13,100 miles. As of August 2017 I have 62,000 miles on the Accord. I put some new Pirellis on at 48000 miles, and new brake pads at 58,000. However, the brake pads I removed we're all still over 50%. Since I had ordered the new pads online, I decided to change them anyway. I saved the old pads for later. I like this car so much that I bought a new 2017 a few weeks ago. I was going to buy exactly the same car, a black sport. But, they found me a gorgeous red sport special edition. Another great car. This 2014 is still in the family. One of my sons bought it from me. After 62,000 miles, the un-reset MPG on the second odometer is 32.1. The Accord Sport is very, very comfortable to drive. (I am 6', 220 lbs.) The back seat is giant for its class. The active sound cancelling works quite well -- reducing fatigue on my long trips. I have never reset the trip "B" fuel mileage calculation. Before winter, the overall average was at 34.3 mpg. Currently, after a very cold winter it reads 30.8 mpg. 95% of my driving is mixed urban. One strange thing, which my son also noticed, the highway fuel mileage is 3-4 mpg lower WITH cruise control than without - even in ECO mode.

I use my car all day in my sales job, so I am in the car for many hours per day. This is my third Honda Accord (2009, 2012 & 2014), the reason I trade my cars often is due to my job. Each Accord has improved each time for me, however the front seat comfort has not. I'm constantly adjusting the front seat to find comfort or to change my position. If Honda would fix this issue, they would have the greatest car. I have the Sport model and the front seats have a "cupping-like" affect causing a hyperextension of the back and neck, resulting in muscle soreness and pain, so much so I have had to pull out the head rest and face it toward the rear seat. This solved my shoulder pain because the head rest pushes the head so far forward it was unnatural. Also, to manage my back discomfort I have had to place a bed pillow length-wise to get relief. I also deal with hip pain because of the way the seat joins to the back piece. And cushioning needs improvement. The engineers at Honda seems to model the front seats after a Formula One car or a door gunner in the Millennium Falcon, way too aggressive for normal everyday driving. I am now ready to purchase a new car. I like the Accord styling with it's "BMW like" exterior, but my body can't take it anymore after six years. I tired of taking Advil to ease the pain. With sadness, I now have to leave Honda. I have researched the competition and have decided to switch solely due to front seats discomfort. Why won't Honda react?, They know there is a problem. If they modeled their seat after a Nissan Altima, the Accord would be perfection and I wouldn't be in this position. FYI, I have tried a Subaru Legacy Limited test drive and the seats blow Honda out of the water. I prefer Honda exterior styling, but like I said before my body can't take it anymore. I believe I going to get the Subaru Legacy, besides the resale value beats Honda. If any Honda Engineers are reading this, please take it to heart. Change the front seats to those of an Altima or Legacy, and you will have the greatest car and I will return.

After test driving what some automotive magazines ranked as the top three automobiles in this class (Mazda6, Honda Accord and Nissan Altima), the Honda Accord Sport pleasantly surprised me by overtaking the number one pick for those same reviews: the Mazda6 iTouring. Having been a former Acura Legend owner, I felt right at home again behind the wheel of the Accord. The Sport's numbers outperform the Mazda not only on paper, but in driving tests as well. I felt solidly in control at all times behind the wheel of the Accord, even with electric power steering. Active noise cancellation helps to quiet the cabin as well. Fantastic car all around!
Great enthusiasts car

3-3-2017 Update: Just turned the Sport in at the end of the 3 year lease. It was an entertaining, fun to drive, frugal, comfortable, and ungodly well built. It was primarily a commute car taking me from Marin to downtown Oakland on a daily basis. Driving very enthusiastically I average between 28 - 30 mpg on 89 octane and full synthetic. The manual transmission was a joy, and it made the commute more enjoyable - never regretted it for a minute. After 3 years I did not have one warranty claim, creak or rattle. I put Nokian Z-Line high-performance tires on at 1K, as the stock tires were really poor on wet roads. The Nokians made the Sport a much more enjoyable car, and still passed the post-lease inspection with 29K miles on the odo. Things I'd changed. The head rest hit me at the base of the neck, so I flipped them around. Even with the Nokians, I would get a lot of wheelspin with one wheel when accelerating moderately in the wet and aggressively in the dry - had to back-off the throttle a lot. It needs a limited slip. The back seats have a lot of room, but the seats are very deep; hence, even my teenagers complained about driving in a cave and feeling like a little kid. The rear seats do not fold even close to flat, so loading a bike or surfboard was difficult - sport-wagon please. While I really liked the Sport, it is a great appliance, but did not invoke my passions. Like my prior Miata, WRX or Cayman - different mission. I'm replacing my Sport with a very lightily optioned Cayman. I only have 1K miles on it. I bought the Sport because it was one of the few vehicles that was offered in a Manual transmission, was fun to drive, had enough room in the rear seats for teenagers, and I could fit comfortably (6'3" and 210lbs). It is a lot of fun to drive - even with a good portion of my 60 mile round trip commute being in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Gear change and clutch is one of the best I have experienced - slightly behind my old Miata, but better than my prior Cayman. It does not like to be rushed, however. Handling is a surprise. Very taunt with little bodyroll, but will begin to understeer at the limits. The ride is perfect - firm, but soaks up all bumps.
