The 2008 Honda Accord drives smoothly and has a lot of nice features - like heated seats and a moon/sun roof.

I love my Honda Accord. It's reliable, fuel-efficient, and fun to drive. This car's handling is tight -- reminiscent of the Hondas of the 1990s -- in a good way. The interior is both nice and durable/cleanable. They have offered upgrades where it makes sense to have upgrades (back-up camera is huge) -- and have kept with Honda engineering of the past with the things that don't need to be upgraded. Plenty of connections for electronics. Stereo system works well. The car is a bit lower to the ground than would be my preference, and there are times where visibility is limited out the rear window. Trunk space is also smaller than I would like, and whereas I was always able to put a bike into the trunk/back seat of my previous Accords, even taking a wheel off, this one won't work. The engine is roomier than previous Hondas if you are a do-it-yourself mechanic. Even with the eco button pushed, it accelerates nicely into traffic and up to highway speeds. It has a manual transmission mode -- and paddles to self-shift if that's your thing.
