The Honda Accord is not the most exciting car, but it is obviously very popular for good reason. It is roomy, comfortable, affordable, reliable and practical. There are some downsides however. With all of the new cars available, specifically CUV's and hatchbacks, the practicality of the Accord may be lower than it once was. In fact, the trunk space of the Accord is quite large and deep, but it is hard to get anything even marginally large or bulky in or out. For example, our small stroller has to be carefully angled in. It's fine for casual errands or driving around town, but our CRV is so much more useful. The interior build quality is not what I was expecting either. The carpeting is very cheap and there is noticeable air noise when driving even at slow speeds. The interior is fairly comfortable, but the fabric is really susceptible to staining. Much worse than any other car I've owned. The best part of the car is the pricing and availability. We got a great deal, because it is such a boring car that is everywhere! Tip - this car can fit three car seats across the back, something that our CRV cannot do!

My vehicle is a 2009 Honda Accord. I bought it towards the end of 2009, so it was considered a "leftover". It was brand new, but the new models were about to be released so I got a little discount on the price. I like the color of my car, it is a steel gray color and dirt does not show up on the exterior as it would if the car were black or red. I have never had any problems with it and it is my fifth or sixth Honda Accord. It handles great on the highway and the gas mileage is good even for around-town driving.
