The car is great. Only complaint would be that you do get some wind noise at higher speeds that you wouldn't get with some competitors but it's nothing out of control. You won't really notice it if you have any audio at a low volume. Update 10/7/16: when I first did this review I had a few hundred miles. I'm now at 11,7xx miles. Cars been great. Only issue has been I had a couple dash lights came on randomly on a road trip but they went away when I stopped for gas. Never came back and it's been a while since then. Update 4/8/17 car is still chugging along great. It now has 22,8xx miles on it. I've noticed an increase in MPG up to 32mpg from 30mpg combined. Update 10/10/17 now at 34,xxx miles still running good. Although I did have an led drl go out about a month ago but it was replaced under warranty. It is something to be aware of because if it does go out outside of warranty it's 400-500 to get that drl fixed because they have to replace the entire headlight assembly. Update 4/19/18 last week my passenger window stopped working I was a little worried but it turned out to be a blown fuse. No big deal just put in a new one and it works again. I don't know why the fuse blew but it could have to do with the aftermarket subwoofer or HID's I installed. Either way I'm not worried about it. Car continues to be great.

Complicated Honda

The car has really good acceleration and handling, very quiet, a nice firm ride, great outward visibility. But the controls are unecessarily complicated ,illogical, and difficult to use. For example, the radio volume you adjust with a knob, but to adjust the tone you have to turn on the information screen, which is dangerous to do when you're driving and quite simply a stupid way to design the controls. Ditto resetting the trip odometer. The car's manual is very poor--illustrations are very poor and explanations incomplete or otherwise inadequate and at least in one place (p. 29 on system settings) just plain wrong. The video disc manual is equally useless as it's just a video of the paper manual. In short, the design of the controls is stupid and the manual is next to worthless. The CVT transmission is very smooth. Car seems thin in some respects, e.g. the hinges for the trunk lid. I hope they didn't skimp on other things.

This car is amazing!!! Solidly built, awesome looking, and amazing interior! The outside is amazing. I never thought that they could look better in 2013, but Honda really did it now. The LED light bars in the rear are very noticeable, and handsome. Same with the front. Interior, the seats are very comfortable, even with some back problems. Great technology. Drives and handles amazing. Overall, I have nothing negative to say about this car!! It's amazing, to say the least! Buy it!!! You will not regret it.

Honda Accord and Apple Car-Play make a good match

I just love the new feature using my I-phone Apple Apps on my car screen. For someone who drives for a living, it makes sending and receiving phone calls, texts and emails from the driver seat a breeze. It actually speeds up my day because I no longer have to pull over or be in someones parking lot to look over and respond to texts and emails. Besides the normal smoothness and dependability of the Accord, it made the decision that much easier to go with the new '16 model because of the Car-Play. There's really only one minor downfall of this new and elegant car, there's no little "nook" to drop your change or small nick-knacks into. Besides that minor tid-bit, this car's a winner all the way around and drives like a champ!

I did a LOT of research and took a LOT of test drives. This is a wonderful car. It has a fantastic drive, and is very comfortable! I've never bought a sedan, and I have no regrets with this car. It is truly my dream car.
