This my 6th Honda. One Civic and all Accords after that. lease a new one every 3 years. have always had a good experience. This last one was a let down. 2016 Accord Sport. Bad paint, bad brakes, horrible CVT transmission, sub par sound system. Overall quality of build has gone down. Have to get roof and trunk deck repainted as the paint couldn't even hold up to bird crap, brakes need replacing at 28K, last Honda Accord, same miles, same ride to work, same driver and no issues with brakes. Will not lease another one again and can't wait for this lease to end.

I live in a rural area of North Carolina and things are sometimes a long way off. High mileage would be a killer for some cars, but the Honda Accord has a high demand used, almost regardless of miles driven. The dealer is pestering me to trade my 2016 for a new Accord because he has no used stock Accords to sell. The car does most things well and some very well. It handles like a German Sport Sedan and the build quality is similar. The only negatives after 30000 miles is yellow looking headlights, common for most cars, and in future my next set of tires will be expensive because they are 19". The car's computer registers between 30 and 35 mpg in mixed driving. My dealer has been very helpful and I have been servicing there since he charges less that most shops and I use full synthetic oil. I now have 37000 miles on the car and it still runs as well as it did when new. As of 9/2019 I have 50000 miles on the car. The only problem has been slightly warped front brake rotors. Premium replacement brakes for my model are not available, only the OEM style are sold. The "sport" model Accord has larger rotors that other Accords and, so far, premium replacements are not available. The stock battery is only 410CCA and I bought the battery box and hold down for the V6 and I am buying a larger 24F 750CCA battery. I cranks too long before starting and I suspect the smaller battery is getting tired.

Best bang for buck for economy car

As a long time Honda owner and having gone through 6 different generations of Accords, 3 gens of Civics - I must say the 2016 Honda Accord is bar none the best looking of them all, dare I say best looking of all economical mid sized sedans on the market. Exterior: LED running lamps and brake lights, dual chrome tipped exhaust, paired with the 19 inch factory rims (on the Sport model) really gives an expensive European look on the new Accord. Smooth body lines and the chrome trim pieces really makes the exterior a top of the line car to look at. INTERIOR: is simplistic and classy. The sport model isn't as flashy without the dual screen for navigation and apple play but it suffices for your daily needs of music, MPG stats, and the new feature of adding photos via USB. Gauge cluster is appealing and consist of a glowing ring that goes from white to green depending on fuel efficiency/how you drive. Spacious enough for 4 full grown adults with plenty of leg room in the front and rear. Middle seat in the rear is always uncomfortable but you can still manage to squeeze someone in without too much discomfort. Trunk space is very large and I haven't had any issues shopping at Costco and fitting anything I need to thus far. The bluetooth system is rather poor as I have had multiple issues with connections cutting on and off, since a recent software update on my phone though, I haven't run into the issue - however the lack of being able to voice dial by name is rather bothersome. Pandora and bluetooth connectivity for music works rather seamlessly, although I would rather have XM Radio capabilities instead of Pandora. The way around it is still to stream XM via phone and run it via bluetooth - but that does use up data. Engine/Tranny: It's got enough umpf for a 4 banger to get up and go when you need it to. The CVT transmission shifts flawlessly through all gears. Launching off the line feels rather sluggish, despite using the paddle shifters. There's enough power in the upper end and responsive enough on the freeway to get out of situational hazards. Braking feels solid and cornering the car really sticks to the road, it being FWD definitely helps pull through corners are high speeds than what signs recommend. It's no race car by any means but it's perfect for daily driving. If you want power and speed pick up the V6 model. Honda really stepped up their game with their new 2016 line up on all vehicles. The Accord is easily my favorite. I do however wish that I spend the extra money for the EX or EX-L. Missing the amenities of keyless entry when I have my hands full of groceries or having to reach into my pockets to find my keys. Sunroof on the warm days or cool summer nights. Auto dimming mirrors when driving in front of a truck or a small car with high beams on. Mostly the memory seats, as I share the car with my wife throughout the week and it's tedious to constantly have to adjust the seat and mirros. Heated seats for the cold winter days. Given that the EX-L is quite a bit of a step up in price compared to sport and has less the fancy 19 inch wheels and dual exhausts, I'd much rather have luxuries than the asthetics. If you've never had these features you probably won't miss it as the car asthetically is a huge upgrade for anyone. If you have had these options in a previous vehicle you'll miss it greatly. Overall I don't think there is a better car for value and looks on the market. The sport model is perfect for someone who likes to have good looks and value in their car - for the long term I'd recommend picking the higher model because you dont' realize what you're missing until you don't have it. But I'd say I'm still happy with my purchase.

First off, I owned a 2012 Accord LX-P, it was a great car. We liked it so much that we just traded it in for an upgrade, a 2016 Accord Sport. It was a huge upgrade from our previous model, very sporty looking, drives and handles amazing and lots of goodies on the inside as well. You'll be happy with this car

2016 Honda Accord Sport

The Honda Accord Sport is a fun car to drive, gives you a smooth and agile ride. The vehicle has decent power but certainly not as much power as a Subaru WRX, Camry XSE, or Maxima. I enjoyed driving the Sport, no complaints in handling, response, acceleration, etc. I felt that Honda cheapened out in materials and amenities. The 19" Alloy wheels look slick but easily "curbed" and one of the tires had a sidewall issue under 17,000 miles. In terms of Amenities, the entertainment is sorely lacking....a 4 speaker system with a weaker wattage head unit. Even the CRV EX comes with a better system. While the pseudo leather trimmed seats look nice, you can feel the lack of quality. Other amenities such as heated seats or a sun roof would have been nice. Overall its a nice vehicle but Honda could have made even more improvements.
