Used Honda Accord for Sale in Springfield, IL

The Accord, just like most Honda's, is a very reliable vehicle. My Accord has 171,000 miles on it and still runs great. From the outside it looks like any 20 year old car - some rust here and there but nothing major. One thing I really like about this car is the engine still runs great with no rebuild in 20 years. It's been in a front end collision and still ran after half the fuses blew, allowing it to get home just to finally stop from a dead battery 3 miles from the accident. The engine just keeps on running no matter what you throw at it (including a Dodge Ram). Very reliable. One thing I don't really like about the car is how the transmission feels when it shifts. It has a little more of a harsh shift than most vehicles, even with new transmissions. The accord transmission just isn't as smooth as Chrysler's or Toyota's. Had a few issues with the electrical system, sometimes has a mind of its own. The A/C heater knobs tend to be easy to break. Overall the car still preforms as if it were new, with minimal up keep for the age of the vehicle.

The car's build quality is at the next level compared to the cars that are sold these days in market. Even at high speed on a windy highway, no vibration(s) are felt, and it feels no major jerks at any speed. The body built quality is simple amazing. The interiors of the cars, especially the seats, are equipped with high-quality leather material that gives it a premium look and feel. Also, when it comes to the service cost, being a model of year 2010, that is the only turn down moment, as it is a bit expensive compared to cars available in market these days.

The car, Honda Accord 2010 model, was purchased in used condition. The car has a masculine look and has a strong build, and the same is justifiable when the car is driven almost 200K miles, and it gives almost now sound like any other car. Earlier I had a car from Kia Motors. With time, the changes went noticeable to a large extent. Also, it's a car with premium interiors, though the next versions of Accord went a bit on the lower side with body weight. The only thing that holds it back is it can't just compete with the new gen cars in terms of top speed. That's probably due to the heavy body.
