Are Honda Accords decent vehicles?
They're among the best cars! For years they were the biggest selling model in the US (might still be, for all I know). Look at their resale values on Craigslist!
Decent
Depends what you want, how you drive, and who you are. For me, they wouldn't last a week. Not much good for off-roading.
A VERY dependable car with few repairs expected. Almost zero if it is new.
Buy the 10 speed, you don't want the CVT tranny.
It depends on the year. Accords, maybe more than any other car I can think of, have had great years and truly horrible years.
The horrible years were 1998-2004, where the 2003 Accords (especially those with V6 engines) often needed two transmission replacements under warranty and a third (or even fourth) at the owner's expense. The 2003 Accord is carcomplaints.com second worst car in their records. After six years of letting customers twist in the wind, Accords were okay until 2008, when Honda messed with the front/rear brake balance. People were replacing their rear brakes when they changed their oil, but most lasted almost 20,000 miles.
Recently Accords have been doing well enough.
Yes
No that's why so many people buy them jojo
New? Yes. Used? Like with any used car, how well it will hold up long-term depends mostly on how it was driven and maintained by past owners AND Accords tend to hold their value well so they're not nearly as good a value to buy used as they are to purchase brand new in my opinion.
If buying new, you'll probably love the reliability and the resale value. If buying used, beware of sellers trying to cash in on the Honda badge by selling cars that might not be worth the asking price due to age/mileage/condition.
I had a 2004 2.2 Diesel sport. It had decent performance and fuel economy and looked better than most of the competition.
Absolutely. I love it
- Is Nissan Selling more vehicles than honda? I keep hearing Nissan is Selling more cars than honda, but i usually see more hondas… Can someone explain?
- How much does Honda charge for ECM or software update on recalled vehicles such as 2005 Honda Civic? I have a check engine light on as I took it to an autoshop they said that there's a updated version on my vehicle that needs to be done otherwise it would not scan correctly due to its current version. They looked up the fault P0139 Code on 2005 honda civic and they said that there are recalls on this model. Which leads my CEL on and its probably a false reading.
- Why do the newer Honda Accords and Civic Touring models have LED strip light as headlights? I get it yes they have LED daytime running lights my Rogue has that. But how come their headlights instead of it being one bulb that shines, its like a whole line of bulbs? and how come Honda only does that? My friend has LED headlights on his charger and it is just one bulb.
- Why are honda accords so expensive? They are so plain looking and dull? I'm just surprised. I thought they were cheaper. For 30 grand I could get something so much nicer.
