Reliable

Economic and reliable car. Nice sleek looking car. Rides smooth. Have all the features I’m look for including back up camera. Only thing I wish it had a sunroof in the Honda Accord Sport

Better than camry

I bought the accord sport in red color. Much better looking than the normal stock colors dealers have. I get many admirers at the hospital where I work. Camry SE was only other I would have considered.it was a little more quiet inside but too boring looking inside and out. If I had another choice I would have chosen a manual but wife cant drive a stick. I would only have considered the four cylinder though in either case. A little more reliable than the 6 cylinder from what I've read.

Awesome Vehicle

I love the way my car handles and its overall classy look. Still under warranty and oil changes made a dealer where I bought it.

2017 Accord Touring - 22,000 Miles Owner Review

24,000 miles in 13 months. I'll just list Pros and Cons; Pros: * Powerful V6 Engine with VCM Runs on less Cylinders when needed - thus saving fuel - I get 38 mpg on Highways * Roomy interior Most compact SUV's do not have this much leg room - you will enjoy all this extra space in a sedan * For 24k miles, never ever had any problem whatsoever. 24k is not a lot however we hear a lot from other brands. There is absolutely no trim or any kind of noise. It is exactly the same as Day 1. * Regular Gas Getting this much power with the regular gas. Thumbs up. Cons: * Hard Suspensions (with 19 inch wheels) The harsh ride is almost unacceptable. I live in Charlotte, NC and roads are neither perfect nor terrible. With the suspension system combined with the 19 inch wheels, ride is extremely hard considering this is a family sedan. If this car was more towards sporty drivers, I would accept it but this is mid size sedan especially targeted to families. I unfortunately hate the feeling of every bit of imperfection on any kind of road. Not good at all. * Seating position I am 5'7 - 180 lbs and for the last god xxxx 22,000 miles in 13 months, I have been readjusting the seat and wheel position EVERY DAY! Every day, yes. Yet I have not found the position for comfortable ride. Wheel is too big also. *Engine is too powerful I do enjoy the engine and the torque of V6 however this is almost too powerful for a FWD drive. You almost always get wheels spinning if you want to play a little bit. This engine must have been build with AWD! * Ride Quality Aside from harsh ride, Accord does not give you that floating feel you get with premium cars. It feels as if you are riding a go-cart or like a boat. I get that this is no where near a premium car but I payed $30k for this and this is no budget car so I expect some quality ride. * Interior Noise This is not a quite car, especially after 65 mph. You will hear heavy tire and wind noise. That's when it reminds you again this is no premium. * Trunk space management Trunk is well roomy however there is no packets on the sides or any divider. Nothing, just empty space. Cost saving I suppose. * Interior Design Center console is too low and not very comfortable. The driver door panel is too high so you cannot rest your elbow on the door and this is deal breaker to me as I only prefer to drive with one hand - Left hand * Transmission (6 speed Auto) This is my 3rd car that I owned in my whole life - as a 35 yo male. I've driven probably a good 25-30 cars enough to judge and compare. The transmission of the 2017 Accord is the only one that pushed me forward and backwards in my seats because it is very hard shifting. Best case is that it just moves my head. This is I would say funny besides being bad. Last car I owned had a dual clutch transmission and if that's a transmission, I do not know what this one is. It might be reliable and cost saver to use this kind of TC transmission however I do not enjoy it. *Old technology One thing I kind of hate is about the perception of reliability with this car or the similar Japanese brands. Well, these kind of cars are reliable and long lasting BUT that's for a reason; they are simple and uses old- proven technology. This might be a good thing or a bad thing. I personally would like a little bit more recent technologies. Last word: I am sure there are people who do not mind Quality and the feeling of it so for those people, this might be one of the best. However to me, this is a very standard car that it won't be different if you have same models of Hyundai, Kia, Nissan or Toyota. I would just chose the most affordable one among these brands of the same class of this car.

Reliable and comfortable

This is a very comfortable and stable car , smooth ride. Inside and outside with a slick design. Good torque for a 4 cylinder car.

Power and efficiency

The vehicle had good power for a smaller engine and provided surprising efficiency. The ride was acceptable even on long journeys. Shifting through the gears was smooth.

Great value

I previously owned a 2004 Honda Accord. This 2017 is a great car also! It meets all my expectations. I wanted a 2018, but found out that Honda was no longer going to make 6 cylinder accords. I am happy with my purchase.
