Completely Satisfied So Far

I bought the EX-L 4 cyl with Navigation. So far I haven't found anything to dislike about the car: - the seats are comfortable - the controls are easy to use - the car is reasonably quiet - the voice control works surprisingly well, although I'm still learning how to use it efficiently. - the CVT/engine combination is responsive and smooth - my first tank of gas resulted in 27.7 mpg around town - not much in cabin storage space

Awesome!!

I sold my 2008 Honda Accord EX and purchased a 2013 Honda Accord EX-L. I am so happy with my new car! My gosh, is has so many bells and whistles that even though I've driven the car for a month, I still don't know what some of the devices are!! There are several things I REALLY like: * back up camera (pretty standard now, I think) * turning on the right turn signal activates a camera that shows what's down the right side of your car. Really helpful when driving the interstate * cameras which sound an alarm when you drift out of your lane. I also love the touch screen which allows me to switch from Sirius radio to am to Pandora. Really neat. Bluetooth, of course, I think is a safety feature (I'm not always fishing for my phone!!) I am so happy I bought the 2013!!! Really enjoying it!

2013 Honda Accord Sport 6 speed manual.

Great car, I picked up from San Diego (Saved myself over $1,800 compared to prices in my area), the only problem with this car, is the rear seat only folds down in 1 piece, if I like to go skiing with my two kids, I will not be able to carry them and I and the skis in the trunk. If I fold down the rear seat, since it is only 1 piece, I loose all rear seats, and I only left with the two front seats. Bad design for sure, I hope this could be something they could fix in the future, otherwise great car, great mileage and all around a nice looking package for the price.

Navigaton system is horrible.

I have had three previous cars with navigation. Whoever created this system should be fired immediately. It is ridiculously hard to use. The 2009 Accord I had was very easy. The hard drive imports information from only some CDs and lists every other song with the same name. The system shuts down for no reason and keeps spouting off an annoying message that it cannot import phone history although it did it when I first purchased it. I asked my dealership if they had a return policy but they said no. I would have taken it back. On the good side, it handles well, is comfortable, has great power, and nice styling.

2013 Honda Accord EXL

So far a great car. A lot of new electronics. Very quiet ride. Only drawback was that the beige interior with wood grain was not available with metallic steel exterior. Sun roof is still included in the "package" which we never use. No provision to add navigation later so still using my Garmin.

First New Car

I should probably wait until I have own the car for a few months before reviewing it, but right now, I think this is absolutely a wonderful car. While I am not a car expert, I feel this is one beautiful car. I feel safe in it.

2013HONDA ACCORD EXL V-6 WITH NAVIGATION

THIS IS THE SECOND ACCORD I HAVE OWNED WITH #1 HAVING 213,000MILES ON IT AND 10 YEARS OLD. IT STILL RUNS AND JUST STOPPED DRIVING IT, SO SOMEONE ELSE CAN ENJOY IT. THIS YEARS ACCORD HAS EVERYTHING ON IT THAT THE LUXURY CARS HAVE. AND IT IS AFFORDABLE. JUST A NOTE: THE BLIND SPOT INDICATOR IS GREAT FOR THE OLDER COMMUTER AND CHANGING LATEST IS MUCH EASIER. THANK YOU HONDA!!!!

GREAT VALUE

The new Honda Accord so far has been very good. The performance and style is back to Honda's standards. I was a little concerned about the CVT transmission but it has been designed to replicate the shifting patterns of a typical 4/5 speed automatic. Fuel mileage seems good about 29-30 in mixed driving. 2 areas are less than ideal the passenger seat feels low with no adjustment to raise it and the removal of the garage door link except for the V6 leaves me scratching my head as to why? (had to get another opener). Reliability is an unknown for now but the TPS light went on with no tire showing a difference. It has gone off and hasn't returned .

Love my new Honda Accord Sport

This is my first new car in a long time,always bought used. This Accord has realy impressed me, it feels so well put together and the ride is smooth as silk. I was a little leary of the cvt transmission at first but after driving it for about a month now it works well, for a four cylinder car it has a lot of get up and go. Also love the fuel mileage, average 29 mpg in city driving. Oh and don't let me forget the Pandora capability in the radio is awsome!!

good car for the money with a few not so good idea

Very comfortable. Drivers side mirror with split a big mistake. Does not work like it should and is actually a little confusing. No single mirror replacement available. Told to go to glass shop and have one made! Really! Cell phone buttons on steering wheel not good idea. Easy to hit them by accident as they are in a location that is often used by drivers hands. Had dead battery as something did not shut off when parked for the night. Jump by AAA caused a fuse to blow. Do like the car though.
