Near top end Honda competes with higher end cars
We compared to the Acura models and found the near top end Honda to be a much better car and deal (surprised!) While the car is brand new, given past experience with half a dozen Hondas, I expect reliability and repair needs to be excellent. Honda servicing is quite good and an Accord is much less expensive to maintain than a Lexus or Acura. This car drives very well. Much better seating and entry/exit height than previous models. Very good visibility (better than the Acura) and better ride than previous models. It's still an Accord, so it isn't really cushy, but it's tighter to handle more like a sporty car without the drawbacks of a sports car. Exterior has too much chrome for my taste, but overall looks good. Interior is well done. Controls a bit daunting at first, but well laid out. We did NOT get the navigation, as it is unnecessary with GPS on phone, but we did pony up extra for the parking lidar and it seems worth it. The automatic right turn camera is a really great feature, but cannot fathom why they didn't do it for left turns as well. Rear camera works well. Overall a very nice car with a nice ride and look. I do wish Honda gave more color choices, though.

Back to Honda after 30 years
You will like the six speed manual if you don't have to drive in stop and go traffic a lot. Put the car in eco mode and set cruise at 70 and expect 37 miles per gallon or more on long trips even loaded down. My last Honda accord was noisy and this one seems to carry on that tradition with some wind noise. Not as many buzzy rattles as my last accord though. I occasionally drive on 6 and 7 hour trips and find the accord does not wear me out like some other cars I have had. The steering was skiddish till the tires were broke in but at 47,000 miles the steering is smooth and the wheel doesn't shake or vibrate. Tires are wearing evenly and they are not bouncing or hopping at any speed. Brakes are still working good even though I am pretty hard on them. I have noticed the tiniest bit of shimmy when i am stopping but I had the same issue on other cars after 50k of hard stopping short like I sometimes do. All in all I think Honda did a good job with the 2017 accord and I hope when the time comes I can still get another one like this one.

Good looking
We are Honda owners who like the reliability and long life of our previous Honda autos. We have not had this Honda long enough to rate many of the above catagories. So far we are happy with our purchase. The front seats are a little low for a shorter person and somewhat difficult for entering and exiting.

Hondas forever
This is my fourth Honda, my second accord. Well it is a little smaller than my 2005 accord, I love this car. It’s magical. I feel like I have come into the 21st-century. It drives amazing, it’s so pretty, the only thing I wish I had gotten was tinting.

3rd Accord, we are a Honda Acura family!
We've had a 99' and an 05' and they were great cars also. I bought my 2017 in 2018 with 17K miles and we are just starting 2021 and I have 42K. I wanted the 2017 because it was the last V6 for the Accord or so they say. I traded up from a 1999 with 270K miles that I had purchased from my co-worker with 223K. I love this car and everything about it, but most favorite thing is that great V6 engine with 282 HP, man that thing goes! My wife has the Acura's Flagship 2005 RL and my car has most of the same features as that car has but it cost $50k. The fit and finish of this car is spot on and the materials are great. I am big into detailing my own cars and it cleans up very nicely. There is a reason why the Accord has made the 10 Best year after year!

Honda Accord great car.
This is my second Honda Accord. I owned the first one for 14 years. Very reliable car. (Update: I just bought my leased car. Easy process). The new Accord has more power for a 4 cylinder and handling is even better than my 2003. While it offers a lot more entertainment options I am not thrilled with the touchscreen controls. (I decided I could live with the controls). The steering wheel controls do help. Overall very happy with the Accord. My friend just bought a new 2020 Honda Accord EX and loves it (Although car manual could offer better guidance).

Second Time Accord Buyer
Not all dealers are the same. Some will charge you for a certified vehicle; my dealer did not. Some don't negotiate; mine did. Do your homework on how much your car is worth--even checking the buying cars sites. Great info out there but you have to look.
