Honda Accord Carmax Reviews

We recently decided to buy a car. Like most people, we are rather averse to dealerships, so we thought we'd give CarMax a try. First, we went to their web site: Carmax.com. There we browsed online through the listings.We had a pretty good idea of what we wanted. In fact, we were pretty sure we wanted either a Honda Accord or a Toyota Camry. We'd been researching cars for quite some time and had pretty much decided that due to reliability, engineering and customer satisfaction polls, these two cars had good reason to be the top two most popular cars sold in the United States. We learned right away though, that CarMax doesn't sell Hondas so that left us looking at a Toyata. In all honesty, we'd thought about the Prius, but decided it was just too small for us. But, since we were still looking to buy something that wouldn't break the bank, we didn't look at any of the pricier models and focused exclusively on the Camry.CarMax had more then twenty Camry's listed right there on its web site. The no-haggle price made it easy to pick one we liked, which turned out to be a blue one with all the basics, which meant power everything and a few niceties like remote key locking and sensors up the whazoo.
Once we had one we thought we liked, we were given a closer view. We saw pictures of the actual vehicle and liked what we saw. We were given a complete list of what came with the car and used the little on-line calculator to figure out what our monthly payments would be under various scenarios. Within a mater of a couple of hours of talking it over, we were convinced this car was for us. It should be noted that we considered taking time out to go over to a dealership to look at some Accords, but after some more discussion, we both realized that we liked the Toyota cars we'd seen on the road and had been passengers in with others that owned them, more than we did the Honda vehicles, so we said forget Honda and decided to get more information on the Toyota.

Used Honda Accord Cars

When comparing the features of these two popular 4-door sedans – you will notice that the Hyundai provides a slightly higher amount of legroom and shoulder room for drivers and passengers. The Sonata offers the option of a sunroof for $900 extra, whereas the Honda Accord is not equipped with this specification. For music lovers, the stock speakers of the Hyundai Sonata accommodate a higher level of wattage. As for the price, a consumer looking to take advantage of a collection of satisfying features for less should seriously consider the 2008 Hyundai Sonata, as it is priced at $22,345 – nearly $3,000 less than the Honda Accord.


2009 Honda Accord Review

2009 Honda Accord The V-6 power rating is up three horsepower. The diesel engine, Honda’s first for North America, is all-aluminum. Emissions are kept in check through a special two-section NOX converter. The first section stores NOX; the other converts NOX to ammonia (NH3). The ammonia then reacts with the stored NOX to produce water and nitrogen.
Highlights and Recommendations. The sweet spot for the Accord is the 190-hp four-cylinder. It sounds good, drives well, and returns the same EPA-rated 31 mpg highway as the base engine. High-end options such as satellite radio, navigation, leather, dual-zone auto climate control, and heated front seats require the EX-L trim or above. The V-6 offers impressive power and still returns decent fuel economy—29 mpg highway—but if you’re willing to give up the straight-line speed, you can save a lot of money without giving up much driving pleasure.
Safety. Honda likes to tout the standard safety equipment in its cars, and the Accord fills that bill. Front, front side, and curtain airbags are standard. Stability control, panic brake assist, and active head restraints also come at no charge.

further, offering a more gas mileage and a digital clock. In 1983, the transmission was improved to a four-speed automatic. A year later, the Accord underwent another restyling effort. The nose was lowered for an aerodynamic effect and the engine was bolstered with a CVCC powerplant, allowing for 86 horsepower. The SE model of the Accord incorporated a fuel-injected ES3 engine that gave an even bigger increase in HP, dubbing the model as the SE-i (as the lowercase "i" represented the fuel-injection version of the SE). The Honda Accord was revamped for the third generation, showing off flip-up custom headlights, front and rear stabilizers, and the option of 14" wheels. 1991 saw the introduction of the Accord Wagon, which aside from a retractable tonneau cover was equipped identically to the coupe and sedan versions of the car.

2011 Honda Accord

Honda typically sticks to very strict model cycles, and four years after it went on sale as a 2008 model, the Accord is receiving its scheduled refresh. Among the tweaks for 2011 is an exterior freshening for both sedan and coupe, including a sharper front fascia design, new wheels, and updated rear lighting. The grille is marginally wider and sports less chrome than before, and it rests above a restyled bumper with more deeply scooped fog-light surrounds. Sedan models have a new trunklid with lighting strips adjacent to the license-plate holder.
A new SE sedan debuts, slotting into the very small gap between LX-P and EX four-cylinder trims. It supplements the LX-P sedan’s equipment with heated leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and allows folks to get leather on an Accord with the entry-level 177-hp four-cylinder rather than being required to step up to the EX trim and its 190-hp four.
