Honda Accord

Great vehicle. I love it. Very strong. Have no complaints about it. Bought it used and feel like a new car. Will recomend it. It is a V6 but is very economic on gas.

Most Problem-Free Car I've Ever Owned

This is the best car I have ever owned. Mine is a five-speed manual and it runs like a champ. It gets great gas mileage, I barely have to fill up the tank. Very comfortable interior, plenty of leg room in the front and back seats. The car's acceleration is very impressive for being a 4-cylinder, and the exterior looks like a luxury car and the interior feels like one.

Super Awesome Car!

You can never go wrong with a Honda. I bought the 2008 Accord EX Coupe and have absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Cheap to service and is super reliable.

Best purchase hands down

I bought my 2008 Honda accord with over 80,000 miles on October of 2015. Since then I haven't had not one problem. The ride is always smooth and with comfy seats as well as spacious interior and quiet cabin, I'm surprised I haven't fallen asleep behind the wheel. I have absolutely no worries.

my green honda accord

Well I didn't want another accord because my 2004 was almost paid for from buy here pay here place. But the promise they told me was a lie!!! The credit bureau s never was contacted about any payments I made. I had enough!! I Went on cars.com and saw this 2008 Honda accord. The miles were high. I'm a mechanic so that didn't matter and I knew about Honda transmission s failing. The dealership was great. I got approved and I drove off. I still have it now. Great car but living in Philadelphia it has parking dents. But a great car

Engine oil consumption problem not solved by hond

Overall the vehicle drives fine kinda comfortable corners good. Tinny sounding over roughy roads and loud noise from the c pillar area, a friend from Honda fixed with a piece of paper folded. My major concern with this vehicle is the oil consumption, I've owned this vehicle for over a year no and every oil change I have to add at least 5-6 quarts of oil. I've taken to a Honda dealer that mentioned about an 8 year warranty extension for this concern with 125,000 miles. Problem is I'm over 125,000 miles and it's over 8 years from delivery date so now I'm stuck with a car that burns 5-6 quarts every oil change and eventually I'm going to need new engine, catalyst converter due to all the oil that's being burnt and a new oxygen sensor. Honda is not willing to fix my issue so be aware, make sure your Honda Accord is not having that issue

No more buy Honda car of any year

I bought new 2008 Honda Accord, 4-cylinder. At 54,000 miles start burning oil about two and half quarter per 4000 miles.Today 60,000 miles. Also last September 2015 received a warranty extension latter from Honda Mfr. noted model 2008 to 2011 cars has sticking piston rings resulting in high engine oil consumption and warranty covers for 8 years and 125,000 miles which ever comes first. I have only two weeks left in warranty. Took to Honda dealer who told me that if car consuming oil one quarter for every 1000 miles they will repair otherwise not qualified, so my Honda not qualified and dealer does not care any more, told me to check oil level and keep adding oil. Found Honda Mfr. changed engine design specification in 2008 and messed up and now consumer will suffer. So I strongly advised not to buy any Honda car.
