This car is a total pleasure to drive. It has responsive handling, and it does not drink a lot of gas. The seats are very comfortable to sit in over long periods of time. The stereo system is very good, and I have a lot of music options such as Bluetooth, CD, and AM/FM stereo. The back-up camera gives me a very wide angle to see around so I do not hit other cars or run over object and people while I am backing up. One of the things I do not like about the car is that this past winter I was driving and I hit some ice. The ice cracked the lower part of my bumper. I was moving very slowly when this happened, and the area should not have been damaged. I feel that in the more modern cars cheaper plastics that can get damaged easily are put on cars in vulnerable areas. However, I can replace the damaged car part for under $20. Overall, my experiences driving the 2016 Honda Accord LX have been very positive.

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!
