Top of the Class Sedan

Best car I have ever owned! Great styling, fantastic interior, superior technology features - this car has it all. Hard to believe Honda is able to pack so much into a car at such a reasonable price. Before buying the Accord, I looked at all the comparative sedans. The competition has some good features but the Accord has the complete package - style, safety, performance, value. The 2013 Accord's exterior style rivals more expensive luxury sedans. The 2.4L engine combined with the CVT has ample power and turned in a wopping 32 MPH combined in the first 2500 miles on the road! If you're looking for a new family car, you simply have to consider the Accord.

Accord 2013 EX-L is nice

Originally I was shopping around online for Accord Sport 2013 white and Poway Honda has lowest price in San Diego county however the White Orchid Pearl is not instock and have to wait until early May. While waiting, we were comparing features back and forward between Sport, EX and EX-L and finally settle on EX-L. This car is amazing and it has all luxury features and even more than my Lexus IS 250. The sale men Amaechi Anyanwu and Dominic Lopez were very helpfull, friendly and funny. I had several phone calls and emails back forward with questions and they are very responsive. I don't feel like I was forced to buy or given misleading information. If you are looking for nice luxury Honda Accord, I recommend Accord EX-L. It has all luxury features of luxury car.

even more value

I got to the dealership and the sales person said look at the accord sport the value plus the looks make it the most appealing car here. He was right the sport is below the ex trim but comes with back up camera,10 way power seat,fog lights,paddle xxxxers on a cvt transmission, 18 inch wheels and tires which make the car, it had rear deck lid (spoiler), blue tooth, 8 inch screen, dual chrome exhaust and more horsepower. there was two things I wanted extra and that was leather ($1250.00) and window tint ($275.00) those items still made it less than the exl model and it looks better plus have you seen the mpg in the mid 30s. the ride is night and day from my 2009 accord and would say high end acura don't have much on this one , I know that this wont be a one year make over like 2012 civic and is best ever

great value for the money

I think the accord is a ton of value for the money. Lots of standard features and the well knit interior (HUGE improvement from the older models) and honestly, this car can easily pose off as an Acura TL. I bought an EX-L after debating about the new Altima vs the 2013 Accord. Additionally, the accord has got a CVT which, unlike the other CVTs in the market, is more refined and doesn't give you the ole 'rubber band' feel. I drove a sports car for before my new accord and I have no complaints. Things pace down as we move ahead in life and I certainly do not wish to corner around the town or speed downhill with my infant in the back. I look at maximum return on my investment and the accord is all green on that front. So overall a good family car with a classy interior and nice feel.

Great Car

I love this car. Its ride and handling are much better than I would have expected. A very comfortable pleasent car. Great for long trips. Very good gas mileage too. My only problem is with the unfriendly navi and phone systems - mI will master them after a bit.

Could Have Done Better

2013 Honda Accord EXL Coupe. Very nice looking car. Classy interior also but skimpy on a few details, as for instance, the carpet on the floor in front of the driver does not go all the way up (you wouldn't notice unless you got down on the floor level and looked though). Also, the stereo had a problem (periodic distortion in sound or no sound at all), which I soon discovered was subject to a factory recall (software update). As a matter of personal taste, I wish they would remove the chrome on the back end exterior, as well as around the window exterior, but that's probably just me. Overall I do love the look of this car and the way it handles. A definite step up for Honda.

Best Car for the Money

For the money, you can't beat the Honda Accord EX. I would not get the navigation package. The smart key and side camera is a must. Lots of standard features on base model like rear camera, dual climate control, and bluetooth. Name another car that has that on their base model. Accord is on top again.

I liked my 2011 Accord so much I bought a 2013

I bought a new 2011 Accord. I loved it. I then gave it to my son at the Univ of Michigan because I wanted him to have a safe, reliable automobile. It made sense to get another Accord, given my experience with my 2011, and so I did. The 2013 EX-L is a beauty! Leather, great sound system, backup camera and blindspot (right side) camera very useful. The car drives well and gets very good mileage. I'm sold on Hondas.

Second Honda

After owning a Honda Accord for twelve years, it was time to purchase a new one. I am very pleased with the restyled and redesigned Honda Accord. Lord willing my new 2013 Honda will run as well and as long as my previous 2001 Accord. I am pleased with the overall quality, power, and styling of the 2013 Accord. I would highly recommend the 2013 Honda Accord to anyone looking to purchase a mid-sized sedan.

Beautiful Car Loaded with Safety Features

My wifes 350Z was on its last leg. We had heard the Accord was a very dependable car and well built so we decided to take a look. The new 2013 is amazing. We chose Black with the two tone leather interior. 8 Air Bags, 360 watt Sterio, lane change avodance, back up camera, right turn camera..Bluetooth for safer use of your cell phone.. We felt like we got a good deal on it so we bought it and could not be more pleased with the fuel efficiency, handling and with the new CVT transmission. If your in the market, want a dependable car that rides great, quiet, and fuel efficient, but has all the goodies of a cadillac, check out the new Accord, you will be impressed.
