2009 Honda Accord Sedan User Reviews

Purchased As New

I have had 4 other Hondas during past years, from the tiny 1978 Civic through the 1993 SI Coupe, and the Accord LX 10th Anniversary Edition. Always had a great experience with these automobiles.

This latest one is an excellent car, but they should retool their suspension and make the ride a lot softer. I did not get the Navigation system, it was too expensive. Too bad the Bluetooth system requires an additional accessory, which is about $500.00, some other makes offer this at no extra cost.

The rear seat is comfortable and the overall finish outstanding. They sure have a very good Quality Control....read morehide

Pros

Style, comfort, price, reliability

Cons

too much road noise

Purchased As Used

Bought it used with 11k miles. Looked like it was brand new...even smelled new. Was used to my previous SUV and it's not as easy to get in and out of, but just as comfortable to drive, and a WHOLE lot better on gas mileage.

Pros

comfort, real world handling and acceleration, thoughtful design

Cons

crappy stereo, seats are initiall hard, but get more comfortable over time

Purchased As New

the EX model is probably the best value with the 190 HP engine. not sure why folks are complaining about gas mileage - overall gas mileage is 25 with a 60% hwy and 40% city mix. This is after 500 miles, and I suspect it will get better. Build quality is nice, and its pseudo luxurious - but remember its a HONDA not a BMW or Mercedes....read morehide

Pros

Excellant power Very smooth ride. Ample room for rear passengers- they are comfortable

Cons

Road noise&Road noise Dash too far into cabin.

Purchased As New

Great performing car. No blind spots - drives wonderful. Uncomfortable to get in and out of. So low to the ground and dash extends so far into cabin. I and other drivers hit out knees getting in and out of car. Redesign that dash!! Also , so much road noise. Is it the new tires placed on the new cars. My car is a 2008....read morehide

Pros

excellent performance when I need it, and great handeling

Cons

blind spot is big, govenor is too low.

Purchased As New

This car is much better than any of the others I test drove, Altima, Camry. The hadeling at speed, and wet conditions are very nice. Also the transmission not having to wait on a computer to decide which shift point to find was very nice, it went to proper gear without me having to downshift and get the power I needed and return back to fuel saving quickly was a major bonus. Unfortunately this car cuts out at 115 mph, I am still looking for the car that can match my 1970 GTO's speed of 165mph. Overall, I love this car, I can beat most cars and keep ahead of them until their drivers get scared and give up....read morehide

Pros

Love the navigation system and bluetooth capability

Cons

The stereo system need to be up-graded to Bose Stereo System

Purchased As New

I purchased my car in April 2009. I purchased the EX-L V6 black w/ beige leather interior with navigation system. I love the navigation system. I also use the bluetooth everyday too. I can't tell you how happy I have been with this car. My Accord gets good gas mileage and it's pretty quite too. This was my first time purchasing a honda and I'm glad I did. This is a car I will keep for a very long time. I'm even considering purchasing a older model Honda Accord for my son....read morehide

Even for the "base" 4 cylinder model, it has a lot of nice features, it's a very quiet comfortable ride. I am very happy with it so far!

Pros

I purchased my car in August 2009

Cons

NO temperature gauge in the car

Purchased As New

I love this car its roomy and its great on the roadways long distance. The ride is smooth. and it had a very classy look and feel

Pros

Safety

Cons

Gas Mileage

Purchased As New

We bought this car for safety reasons. Consumer report gives highest safety rating in comparison to Nissan Altima and Toyota Camry. It drives good. Very spacious comapred to 1996 EXL-V6 that we still own. Audio system is very good. The only drawback is the poor milege for short communtes (average is about 17 mpg). Probably it gives bettere mileage when traveled long disatnce. Long way to go before I can give feedback on performance and reliability, it is only 600 miles on this car so far....read morehide
