What a GREAT car!!

This is for the Accord Touring 2.0T. Comfy - the seats are great: supportive, well bolstered, nicely stitched. Sporty - the 2.0 turbo matched w/ 10sp auto is a sleeper sports car! Had V6 all my driving life and thought I would miss it. This Honda combo is really that good. Ya gotta drive it! Roomy - while not much larger outside than my 2008 Accord, the inside is so much better packaged that it feels much roomier. And the rear seats are as good as you've read. Well built - solid comes to mind at every hinge, compartment, door opening. The car feels well planted and solid getting in/out. The doors feel substantial when operating, and all the gears/knobs just feel solid and 'right'. All the comforts - this feels like an $80k luxe car inside. It really does. Powerful AC - very little spool up time before the cool air floods the cabin. Same can be said for heating. Test drove a new one at a dealer - LOVED IT. Found a used one online and bought it - LOVE IT STILL! Just WOW - this Accord is really GREAT.

A Great Value and Terrific Car

Quiet, fast (Sport 2.0 Turbo), spacious and nicely detailed inside. I can't imagine car makers are turning their nose up on sedans for SUV's. This is a great car and it's too bad there isn't a coupe version.

I have owned several Honda’s and they have all be.

I have a rattle in the steering wheel and I have been unable to get it fixed yet. I hope to get it taken care of at my next appointment.

BEST CAR IVE OWNED IN YEARS

The car is one of the best I’ve had. The miles per gallon on this car is fantastic!!! I have a nice big screen up top that shows my driving information and I can monitor how my mpg is. The ride is very comfortable and it’s just a stunning looking car!!

Honda is my go to brand

This vehicle meets all of my needs. I drive it to work, use it for leisure, and all of my every-day-need-transportation. The features on this car are really driver friendly

Most stylish car I've owned in a long while.

Looking forward to driving instead of it being a task, now it's fun! The technology is crazy! The bells and whistles are fabulous. Handles really well and quite powerful. The color is eye-catching. Impressed by the touch lock features, especially for a busy mom carrying bags and other items.

Only a Honda for me!

Love it so far, so many features I am mind boggled. I did like the previous body style better but love the bigger console with more storage. I have driven a Honda since 2003 and only got new one to take me into retirement.

Listed downsides of this car

I have a Sport 2.0L versión with 19” wheels so #1 could be partially because of that. These wheels do look good but bring comfort down a lot. 1. Horrible turning radius. It’s literally super bad, my wife’s 2014 Altima has a better turning radius. Every single parking I end up going back and forth at least once. 2. Backup camera in light rain becomes unusable, all fully covered by bubbles. Have many pictures of this. I couldn’t believe this wasn’t tested by Honda. 3. Keyless entry is only in front doors, very annoying as I always put groceries behind front seats. 4. Very bad sound insulation. When it rains you will have to turn your audio or phone volume up A LOT. 5. Lane keeping assist often gets confused and flushes red light. 6. Middle glove compartment is very hard to reach and doesn’t have an upper level for smaller things. 7. Tachometer part is digital(while speedometer is mechanical) and is lagging when pressing the gas pedal.

The Sport was scary to drive.

We rented a 2018 Accord Sport for a 10-hour road trip. The road noise is super loud. The seats hurt my back. I felt like I was sitting in a bathtub, it was so low down. The sound system is horrible. The Driver Assist package is not intuitive. Once, the car jerked on the brakes so hard we could have had an accident, and it was truly for no reason (doing 30 mph on a straight smooth city street with no potholes and no nearby cars, metal plates, anything). Every time we stopped the car we had to re-set the Driver Assist. The "BRAKE" warning kept flashing, again for no reason. On the plus side, the car has good acceleration and can go fast - not really needed for commuting in stop/go traffic. I had a '90 Honda Accord LX and absolutely loved it. I would never buy this car.
