2015 Honda Accord EX-L review
Top tier daily, few compare

Great daily. TLDR, very little other cars give you this much fun without sacrificing functionality, reliability, mileage, or comfort.
Doesn't get terrible mileage as long as you don't drive it like a maniac. Put's mustangs and some chargers/challengers to shame. Has a lot of grip, but steering is numb and very light. Has a bit of rev hang. Leather seats are very comfortable, but the suspension is a bit bumpy at times (its not a german luxury car so its not a big deal). Shifter feels a wee bit numb, but cause it has rubber bushings. Manual transmission has very aggressive gearing, 1st doesn't need any throttle at all to get going and can at time start in 2nd, 80mph @ 3000rpm in 6th. E-Brake handle feels super cheap, but it is a honda so o big deal. Doors are nice and long, giving great visibility. Back end looks super sexy. V6 sounds like pure sex, especially at 4900rpm and up (VTEC range), redlines about 7000rpm, has lots of torque so you can pass in 6th on the highway very easily. MPG is listed at 18/28 but you can realistically get a bit more than 30 on the highway if you use cruise control or don't drive too fast (65-75). Back seats fit up to 3 average sized adults for trips not too long, great rearseat room for a coupe. Auto-dimming rearview mirror is a blessing, and blindspot camera (if yours has it) is very useful. Trunk is pretty spacious, with back seats down it can easily fit skis or snowboards and other long but not too wide cargo cause it has a chokepoint between the trunk and the seats which limits width. Handling is great, but you don't get any feedback from the steering wheel and steering is super light (electric pwsteering). Body doesn't roll too much in corners. in my opinion, VERY UNDERBRAKED. Brakes are not nearly big enough for the power this car has. Good for normal use but driving at a track or in Mexico at 100mph+ the brakes fade extremely quickly and lose stopping power, then begin to warp a bit (goes a way after a while but sucks in the moment) I had a couple "Oh xxxx" moments underestimating the brakes due to them being hot. User beware. Get some LED headlights if it doesn't come with any, the halogen bulbs are pretty weak. FCW (front collision warning) is very annoying and too sensitive at the lowest setting so turn that off. ECO mode is absolutely a must, it does NOT limit power it just makes the already sensitive throttle more linear and natural feeling, saving vital MPG during normal driving. Pedals are kind of small so harder to heel-toe in normal or more narrow shoes. You will have to replace tires often cause burnouts are so easy and fun even possible up to 3rd (joking obviously).
IF skeptical, BUY ONE! just make sure it was taken care of, but you will have tons of fun while still being able to daily it every day for a trillion miles cause the Honda J35 runs for centuries (the ones without cylinder deactivation). DONT LET FWD DEALBREAK YOU! it still drives and handles amazingly.
Conclusion: amazing daily for enthusiasts looking for a good combo of fun, comfort, reliability.
