I opted for the 2011 Accord with every available bell and whistle (except for navigation). I wanted a good car that would not only retain its value over the years, but one that also looked sleek and stylish. I chose metallic gray with gray leather interior and an attached spoiler on the back. I drove off of the Honda lot with that sweet smell of new car permeating all of my senses. The grip of the steering wheel put me in power. I felt like I was driving a solid vehicle that could take me down the street, up the highway, or across the country. I felt comfortable and in control driving this car. From the door handles to the suspension system, this car had been carefully assembled for somebody. And I feel glad I chose it.

I enjoy that it has good mileage and it only takes about $30 on average to fill the tank. It is very reliable and doesn't break down often. It is very spacious despite being a smaller car. I don't like that the car is prone to misalignment on bumpy roads and I've gotten a few flat tires on it as well. It is more susceptible to road damage than an SUV is.
