I bought the car because of the excellent reputation Honda engines have. That reputation has held true to form. I've driven the car for 20K miles since I purchased it and never had so much as a hiccup. The V6 engine has plenty of pick up and the car drives very smoothly. But what really has impressed me are the features. The side view camera is very handy for changing lanes in traffic, the rear view camera makes backing up very easy, and my favorite feature is the economy button which decreases horse power and increases fuel efficiency. This feature is perfect on my drive to work.

Overall, the Honda Accord is a decent vehicle. I have the coupe model, which is really easy to park in the city or fit in the garage. It accelerates surprisingly fast for a four-cylinder vehicle because it is so lightweight, and sometimes you don't realize you are going very fast. The fuel economy is pretty good, but quality in that department is reduced by frequent exhaust problems. The non-mechanical parts of the vehicle (GPS, locks, knobs, trim, etc.) all are made as cheap as possible and fall apart. But generally, the car is mechanically reliable, which is why I say it is, overall, a good vehicle. It starts in the morning and gets me to work.
