Keeping the manual transmission alive
Honda has always been known for having some of the best cars on the market. Reliability is one of the reasons I decided to go for the Accord. My very first car was a 2002 Honda Accord and it was a great car so that was my deciding factor. I needed a reliable car that would last me due to the fact that I drive over 20,000 miles a year. I've had the car for about 5 months now and it was very difficult to score the car. There's a lot of good stuff but also there's a few things that bug me. The car is fun...there is absolutely not doubt about that and being able to drive a midsize sedan that has a manual transmission is great. However, I can't stand the clutch on the car. For you car enthusiasts out there that like stiffer clutches or shorter throws, you will struggle with enjoying it. I find the clutch too buttery and the throws are a tad bit long. Granted I could've gone with a Civic Si or a Type R if I wanted a sportier feel but the Accord is a Sport trim so you'd expect it to live up to that trim title. Another thing, the gas mileage isn't that great. I average about 27mpg overall. A small fuel tank makes it feel like i'm wasting more gas than I actually am. I have to fill up every 4 to 5 days (I drive 65 miles highway daily and about another 5 miles are city). The next thing I can't stand are the speakers to the car. The Camry has an option of getting JBL premium sound...to be able to get premium sound in an Accord I'd need to get an EX-L and I am not a fan of the wheel design of the EX-L trim. The speakers on the Accord are a little less than decent. Once you go above level 13 on the sound, songs start to sound like crap. I'm paying $30,000+...I should have an option for premium sound. Now, the Honda Sensing Suite is a fantastic part of the Accord BUT it is WAY too sensitive. When I have Lane Keep Assist activated and I'm going down the highway on a straight line, the car will tell me to put my hands on the wheel. If I don't steer it to the right or left to "detect" my hands, it deactivates. The point of the system is to keep you centered but God forbid you're TOO centered and the car thinks you're not paying attention. Also, the collision warning is WAY TOO sensitive as well. I'm slowing down like normal but if I get too close and i'm not braking hard enough, the car freaks out. It's annoying and it's a known annoyance that the safety features are overly sensitive HOWEVER they work well in the worst case scenarios. It saved me once in thick fog. The Accord was able to detect a car in front of me and stopped for me. So as annoying as it is, I learn to deal with it for my safety. I own an Altima as well and compared to the Altima and also the Camry, the Accord does not lack in technology. Apple Carplay/Android Auto is standard, speed limit sign detection, and the gauge cluster is HIGHLY customizable. You can have album artwork displayed where the RPM's are, MPG, Maintenance, Safety Features, and more. Honda does give the car a lot of technology. Now, I know not having the 6 Cylinder is a bummer and believe me I was bummed as well...the 4 banger is not as bad as you think. Especially having a manual transmission. It's a fun little car and you can feel the turbo kick in as low as 1600 RPM. The interior is also very roomy. Most leg room in the rear seats which is important for me because I carry friends around and I'm tall so my seating position causes me to have my seat back pretty far. The interior does have cheap plastic (as all Japanese cars do) but Honda also added quite a few soft touch materials throughout the cabin so it doesn't feel that cheap. So overall the fun factor on the car is a huge plus, the technology is great, and it feels like a sturdy and safe car. I would've given it a 4/5 but I spend a lot of time in a car...so premium sound has always been a big factor for me. It was either a stick shift with extra leg room and a trash audio system, or an automatic with no legroom and a good sound system. Also the annoyance of the overly sensitivity Honda Sensing Suite bugs me quite a bit. Add that to the less than decent gas mileage, that's how I came up with my score. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful car and a great option and probably one of the best and most reliable cars on the market, but I'm just stating my opinions and my annoyances to possible help someone make a well informed decision on their next car. The Accord more than suits my needs I just wish there were some things different that would make it THAT much better.

Some sort of engine problem
I bought the 2019 Accord 2.0T back in January, I got a defective one because at random times my engine decides to misfire, rpm accelerates at a stop. It's been doing it for several months now. I've taken it to multiple dealerships and they can't seem to find the problem. So now I'm stuck driving an unsafe vehicle. I would definitely make sure to test drive the actual vehicle I'm going to purchase rather than having the dealership just hand me a car in the future. Thank you Honda!

37,000 on my 19' 2.0 Sport and not a single proble
In January 2019 I traded my18' Camry XSE 4cyl for the Accord 2.0 Sport and still think the Accord is a much better car with the 2.0 engine. 37k miles later and not a single mechanical problem. Several hard runs on the turbo and not one malfunction. Whats to love? The engine and 10 spd in this car is buttery smooth. After daily driving my share of 4 bangers over the years, this engine gave me a new tickle and a smile on my face and well worth the lost on the trade. This 2.0 handles better around bends and corners than the camry, although better sport tires with some grip is a must upgrade. I drove Toyota for years, owing a corolla a Camry and Sienna. But I was so curious about how the 2.0 Accord Sport stack up over the Camry XSE. On the highway in eco mode I can get 380 miles to the tank. That’s at 2500ft above sea level. In the Camry I was getting 425. If your a spirited driver, then the 2.0 is the engine to get. Put it in sport mode and you will no problem merging on to highway. The ability to drive in manual mode at anytime is effortless. The ability to lock your doors automatically when you exit and walk away from the car is nice when your hands are full from the bags of groceries in the spacious trunk. Remote windows, when it is hot outside. Some of these features are not on the 1.5 Sport so you need to spring for 2.0 for the remote start features. Also, the 2.0 does not have a CVT transmission thats in the 1.5. Overall, the Accord 2.0 Sport is a better buy with more features than the Camry. Only wish I test drove the Accord sooner. There’s plenty of space in the back seat and trunk. Overall very happy. Buy the Accord with the 2.0 you won't regret it.

The manual transmission 2.0T is lacking tech
-There is no turbo boost meter as in the car manual it has an * and does not define what time level gets you the meter. -There is no memory settings for the add-ons such as headed steering wheel -You can't turn off hill assisted braking even when brake hold is off -Some tech features become disabled and are not reported such as the lights on the mirrors for car detection when there is frost. -the car will not emergency stop itself as in the commercial this also disabled on the manual. -many features are for assistance only this car will not drive itself as some sales personel will tell you. -there is poor detail in the manual for defining the bridging and overlaps of systems that do similar but not the same thing and the limitations between the manual and automatic function -The MP3 player shuffle is terrible -other touring trim model features are not mentioned as upgrades to the sport model you can only get the style but not the tech. -there are unresolved climate control problems in my car
