I read a lot about Honda Accords and i'm thinking about buying one now...im more interested in 2003 models....from consumerguideauto.com..they rated the Accord pritty good in its class!...whats your personal views and experiences with the Accords(any year/model)...any feedback would be awesome!!!

 

This is not the place to find answers on the 2003 + models.

We drive 4, 5, and 6 gen accords here, but the ACCORD really started heading in a different direction after that (IMO). Honda still put lots of work into the ACCORD but the newer ones have different characteristics than there older counterparts.

I love my 5th Gen, wouldnt trade it for anything, sure I would buy something else but I would like to think I will always have my ACCORD. Great car, yeah theres faster **** out there. Accords are great if you want to try and be a little different in the car craze scene if you plan on modding it. An ACCORD needs love, some things you have to hunt and hunt for to get what you want. It needs more TLC than an Integra or a Civic, you can buy just about what ever you want for those platforms right off the shelf. Its seems too easy to me, kinda effortless if you understand what im getting at.

Myself I like my ACCORD because its different from whats cruising the streets around me. I see SO MANY DAMN CIVICS its crazy, theres only a select few ACCORDS cruising the streets here.

thumbs up, ACCORD LOVE!

 

not the place for 03+ accords but

accords go way back first car introduced by honda in america? i think maybe but good reliable and fun

 

This is like asking "Who Likes Baby's?" in a Maternity Ward.

Great Car
Do the maintaince
Keep it a long time.

'97 Accord SE / 224,000m - drives like the day it left the showroom

P

 

Mine :
97 Accod Lx
190,XXX
Been turbo for almost 40,000 and still runs strong as hell.
Run into normal maintaince here and there, but thats with any make and model.

 

my 94 Accord ex has 153xxxx miles. Blew two trannys, and the thrid is starting to go. (auto). The engine is still strong. I would suggest a manual transmission.

 

Accords are pretty good cars to own. Pretty reliable, pretty nice styling (5th gen is forever, so unique and beautiful) It gets you around. It sometimes makes you happy hearing the engine rise in RPM. Especially with an intake. Good car overall.

The bad side is that my automatic transmission went out. For some reason, the automatics in Hondas SUCK. They break down so easily. BAH!

I don't like the styling of the 03+ sedan. The coupes are much nicer! They are good cars, but the quality doesn't feel the same, feels a little cheaper.
