2009 Honda Accord Coupe EX-L V-6 5-Spd AT w/ Navigation System

Pros

Its a Honda, what else is there to say? Great car

Cons

Automatic Climate Control keeps turning to vent

Purchased As New

This is my 4th Honda and I have been happy with every one of them until now. I bought this car 9 days ago and have already brought it to Honda twice for issues with the A/C. Both times they told me the car was working as designed and wouldnt even bring the car back to check. If I put the A/C on Auto it fluctuates between recirculation and vent. So every couple of seconds it brings in the hot humid air from outside. So the car is continually humid. Its July in Florida, so needless to say its very uncomforatble. If I turn the Auto off, my only options are vent or recirculation. My last 3 Honda's allowed me to have the A/C on without being on recirculation. Also, this car wont allow me to switch the mode without taking it out of Auto. So when its 100 degrees outside and I want the A/C to cool my feet, I cant do it on Auto. I never had that issue with the last 3 Honda's. Honda says that this is a new "feature" in the 2009 model. I should have kept my 2001 Accord, at least it kept me cool and comfortable when I drove....read morehide

Love the ride and look. A little wide on the turning radius but love it in total.

Pros

Appearance, performance, fit & finish

Cons

busy radio / nav console, error prone voice commands, so-so mileage.

Purchased As New

This car has good performance and is well finished. Get all the bells and whistles, and live with quirky bits of the nav system. I installed a Honda sport suspension, and 19" Momo wheels, and it really sets this car off. A trip to a muffler shop lets the engine exhaust breath easier with 2.25" pipes and a pair of Magnaflow mufflers, nice sound too. Best car I've owned, and I know it will be more reliable than my Z06 Corvette....read morehide

Pros

Great fuel economy, drove 380 miles and still had quarter tank left.

Cons

Brakes squeek a little. Turning radius could be better.

This car is the best car I have ever had. It is super fun to drive, very comfortable, has all of the bells and whistles you could want in a car. For a two door car, very roomy. Have driven on long road trips with 4 people in the car comfortably. Very quick pickup, seats super comfy, appearance is awesome inside and out. The details on the inside are just what you would expect from a Honda. I am a super Honda lover, and this car just makes me even more of a Honda lover....read morehide

Pros

Benz quality looks outside. Zippy V6. Loaded cost of $31,000

Cons

button cluttered interior. sluggish base I4. poor MPG on 6Speed

My girlfriend bought a Honda Accord a couple days ago to the tune of $31,000 fully loaded. I forced her to get everything such as the Navi, the leather, the moonroof and the alarm system S2000.

The car is very sexy and with rims or other mods it can look even better. Leather quality is also fantastic.

The downside is that leg space for taller drivers is hurt by knee piching dashboard design and a wheel that doesn't telescope more than 3 inches.

The button layout for the Navigation system is split from the button layout for the radio which creates a huge mess of buttons that look similar. Adjusting some features while driving isn't easy because of this. Voice controls are suggested but the computer misunderstand constantly since you don't have to train your voice for it like Ford's SYNC system.

Buttons in the car are plasticy, feel cheap and none of the compartments opens with any precision at all.

What saves the car is the fact its V6 offers plenty of ZIP for city/highway driving and combined with the sexy exterior, the car looks almost as good as an Italian sports car. A convertible version migh be a sure hit.

Road handling isn't spectacular. There is plenty of body roll and bumps make for a punishing ride. Fortunately, sterring is more precise than it was in the outgoing model.


For its price and traditional reliability, the accord is a stand-up conpetitor with lots of options and features that will make most city drivers happy without breaking their bank accounts. Hopefully, all the complaints about it will be addressed in the next redesign....read morehide

Pros

Acceleration, handling, interior and nav/BlueTooth

Cons

At this point, none

What can I say? Excellent automobile. Easy feel, handling, brakes, steering, audio and the Nav/BlueTooth system. The Navigation package in loaded with features. Wait until you get your hands on the Nav system, much less the car itself! Yes, go ahead and buy the automobile then post here to thank me!
