2013 accord coupe EX-L
Nicest car I have ever owned. The ride is quiet, smooth, and comfortable. The new technology is pretty cool also. Things like the back up and side view cameras, and the hands-free link to phones definitely make this a safe ride. The interior is roomy, supportive, and comfortable.

Second Accord purchased
This is my second automatic Accord lx. I bought my first one new in 1998. It was such a great car that I was happy to learn that the new one was getting great reviews. It has lots of great features. I love the back up camera, the spacious interior, comfortable seats, blue tooth. i have yet to take of advantage of Pandora. The continuous variable transmission works well. Great gas milage. Have yet to determine how much differance using the econo makes. A couple of negatives: the speedometer dial is so large that when tilted to my optimal position the top of the speedometer (60-80 mph) is blocked from view. Also the headrest tilts too far forward and is not comfortable. We turned them around and they work fine. Both are easy enough to work around. Looking forward to many years years of satisfied driving. Having reliability a required rating above is silly for a new car. I don't think its practical before driving it for at least a year.

Fun car to drive
My Honda will be 2 months old on the 28th of June and so far it has been a fun car to drive for a 4 cylinder, and the looks of a sport car with the fuel economy that I need for my job.

Great car
I bought the V6 ExL with sport wheels added from the dealer. I was pleased with it and the more I drive the more I like it. I really can't complain with anything.

Better than expected 2013 Honda Accord Sport
Marketers are always trying to find new words and phrases to raise the hype and anticipation for new products. Manufacturers are always trying (sometimes not) to make their products better. Honda has a great reputation as far as quality and reliability but has really not been considered a "sports car" producer. The new redesigned 2013 Accord-Sport breaks the mold. The true dual-exhaust, 18" wheels, front & rear torsion bars, paddle shifters and tastefull spoiler did it for me. The car handles like no Honda I've ever driven and this is my 9th. The bonus is up to 35 mpg! How can you go wrong? The "Eco" button allows you to achieve the best mpg however when you want to be a bit more aggressive just deactivate and you'll be suprised how "sporty" it can be. The car is beautiful, well thought out and has great lines. The interior is well appointed without going overboard however I really wish they had an option for leather interior. I understand the price points and you have to move up to the EX-L version to get that. The blu-tooth integration is actually usable, adds to safety and the audio clarity is great. You don't sound like you are on a speaker-phone. All around it was the result of much research for quality, reliability, mpg and style.

Great Car
I just got this one and it drives great. This is my first Honda and I Like it a lot. It's sporty looking, but handles like a sedan. It got all the safety features like blind spot camera and rear view camera, land departure warning light, etc.

My Fourth Honda
This vehicle continues my ownership of Honda products which includes one Honda Civic and two prior Accords. All of those have been marked by excellent reliability, which I hope to experience also with my new 2013 Accord. While it's too early to comment on my new Accord's reliability, it appears to be well-built and features excellent fit and finish. I can comment on a few new features which were not present on those previous Hondas, and are very welcome. These include independent driver and passenger side temperature controls, a back-up camera display and passenger-side rear view display (activated by the right turn signal), a real-time display of current fuel consumption rate, tire pressure monitoring and automatic headlight activation. Interior dimensions are comfortable and the driver's seat has good adjustability. Visibility all around is good. The vehicle provides a quiet and stable ride. The 4-cylinder engine has adequate power and acceleration to be sufficient for my driving needs.

Happy with my Honda
I've had the 2013 Accord EX for two months and I'm very happy with it. It's my second Accord (first was a 2009), and I love the new exterior and interior designs. The right side and rear cameras and the Bluetooth cellphone connection are great safety features. I've been getting 34 - 36 mpg on the highway during long drives (1 - 3+ hrs. on the highway) and in the mid 20's around town. I use the Eco feature constantly, and never notice reduced power. I turn it off if I want faster than normal acceleration onto the parkway or to pass on the highway, and then go back to Eco again. I've had no mechanical or maintenance issues so far, and never did with my 2009 Accord, so I look forward to years of enjoyable, carefree driving.
