Disappointed
The computer in the car doesn't work consistently - so do not depend on it - that is for all actions - from Bluetooth to XM to navigation to Pandora... The very low profile of the car has it hitting every driveway curb - and don't even think about navigating a pot hole It spins out not only in a very small amount of snow, but on a wet road as well. It's not all wheel drive, but ever for front wheel drive it's performance is abysmal if the drive is in inclement weather in hilly terrain The ride in the Honda Accord has the driver feeling every small imperfection in the road

I like it so far
I like the car so far. Haven't driven it too much. It seems to be reliable. I've had a Honda Odyssey for almost 7 years and I love it, so I hope this Honda Accord is going to be a good purchase too.

For Continued Reliability
This car rides smooth and the CVT transmission is so quiet, you don;t hear it shift. I drove it from Alabama to Florida and it was a very comfortable ride all the way. Honda corrected the wind noise that used to be in the cars and the tech features in this car are great. This car takes regular unleaded, yet performs like a 6 cylinder car. Maintenance for this car is just routine. No surprises...I like that. The exterior styling is sharp. The headlights/daytime running lights are LED. This is the sixth Honda I have owned.

Honda Is the BEST!!!!!
I bought myself a 2013 Honda Accord Coupe LX-S, for a basic model I would say it has a lot of options, I love the car, the look, the style and everything is just terrific, The gas mileage is wounderful. I drove on highway and I got up to 41mpg. Don't have any problems with it, I am a Honda fan, I just love Honda Accords!!! Excellent car

THE World Car Standard of the Industry
Honda Accord 4 door's only flaw over the years has been an aesthetic winners and losers from generation to generation. With that said, the same could be said for virtually any car of the last five decades. The rest is all good; finding faults requires more time and patience than we wish to invest. The 2013 / 2014 exterior is a WINNER. The Honda's new body of 2013 just looks right compared with the predecessor. The aggressive lower grille with chrome highlighted splitter balances the facade. The rear end appears integrated as compared to the ugly butt discarded for 2013. The side elevation is clean and purposeful, if not dramatic - probably best for an all around car. The appearance and function of interior seating, doors, door mounted controls, carpets and rear interior deck are noticeably "uncheap"; If ever the term "Spartan Luxury" was not an oxymoron, this is it. Once seated and rolling, there is a noticeable substance and solidity one typically associates with the best cars starting $10,000 higher. The dash area has a logical ergonomically correct layout that is recognized instantly by anyone who has owned any previous Honda. So for many Americans you feel right at home and are immediately drawn to the center "stack" which manages virtually all non-driving essential features easily accessed by both driver and front seat passenger. The computer is NOT to be learned while on the roll. Learn it in your driveway as have I, and it quickly becomes second nature. The driving controls from floor to dash are immediately intuitive and fit both my wife (12" shorter and half my weight ) and big me (6'5" @ 270# perfectly) Positions of secondary driver and car control features become "second nature" quickly. The sunroof,garage control, and overhead lighting positions are easily visible but I've used none of them yet. The interior rates very high with no feel, appearance, or hint of "cheap"; technically not a luxury car, it reminds the driver every second how good a choice he/she made. The driving experience very good, albeit a mixed bag. The power delivery is instantaneous and large. I have never driven the car in standard mode (I prefer economy mode). The car's sheer power has caught me off guard a few times. At only 278 horsepower, the first 4 of the transmission's 6 forward speeds imperceptibly lauch you as quickly as most $45 - 50K Japanese and German luxury models. If that's not quick enough, switch from economy to standard mode. Bear in mind this car hit 60 in 6 seconds and 100mph in 14. Handling dynamics are very good - with a qualifier: The front end does not give you the tactile feedback one feels in my Acura NSX. This is a car in which visual awareness of you position and hold on the road are easy, but the feel of the road is muted. Nevertheless this is the feel Americans grew up with, and even several BMW models have been reviewed as such. With so much power through the steering wheels up front, the factors that compromise the "feel" also significantly reduce torque steer which is not good for drivers with slower reactions an minimal arm strength. The ride and verticle compliance over bad surfaces and long dip / humps is outstanding. Surprise that might upset other vehicles are reduced from "dang!" to "did you notice that?". On the highway at speed the tires rotational inertia lends a centering feel so staying in lane easily allows for long drives without tiring. The fuel economy is excellent. To make it accessible upon demand, the standard information display in the gauge cluster visually cue you in to see how your use of the brakes and throttle affect econopmy. You learn how to drive smoother through a science known as "biofeedback". The optional EX-L NAVI package provides even more info for economy. Accord is a compromise, albeit one of the best thought out in automotive history. It is not a sports car. It is not a luxury car. There are many things it is not. It is however an economical and enjoyable vehicle with extremely wide appeal in every demographic.

Some Design Issues Lessen Driving Pleasure
I recently bought the 2014 Accord Sport with a 6-speed manual. I think it?s a fine car but a few design oversights, clustered around the driver, are really frustrating?especially when past Honda efforts lead you to expect the details to be well thought out. GOOD - Comfortable - Quiet, planted - Roomy interior - Attractive inside and out ONLY OK - The anti-lock brakes engage too soon (Colorado driver) - Ride could be a little more compliant, especially on concrete roads - Why couldn?t I get the v-6 with the manual transmission? While the drivetrain is adequate, the 4-cyl is kind of a paper tiger DESIGN ISSUES - The windshield wipers leave the residue line right - in front of the driver?s line of sight - The console is located so far back that only the point of my elbow can rest on it - The sun visor sticks right into your forhead when you rotate it to the side - The driver?s side rear view mirror has a convex section that makes you nauseous every time you look at it - The rear seat folds down only as a block; stupid
