Default advice for my first car

im 16 years old and gettin ready to get a car. my grandpa is buying my car and i have the choice between an accord ex v-6 or a pilot ex. ive already driven both cars and i just cant decide between them. the accord has more power and i think the seats are more comfortable but the pilot has a lot more space and a smoother ride. i know both are great vehicles and id really appreciate it if u guys could share your wisdom and help me decide.

i definitely dont think im gonna b hauling a lot of people but i just dont know whether or not im gonna need to carry a lot of stuff. after all, im goin to college in a couple years and u never know. i am leaning towards the accord right now. i know its gonna suit all my needs but something in the back of my head just keeps saying the pilots cool too. the nice thing is my sister is gettin ready to buy an accord and ill have the opportunity to drive that around for about a week before i make my decision.

the transmissions on the v-6 accords have been rather problematic so factor that into your decision

just get whatever it is you know you will be most safest and comfortable in, and i guess whatever it is that suits your tastes, style and needs, obviously for a young'n an accord is a good start, but a pilot is pimp also, so, easy come, easy go!
