Just over two years ago, I added my 2014 Honda Accord EX-L V6, apart of the last generation of J-Series powered Accords, to my small collection of cars. Here are a few updates since last year.

I Bought My Dream Car: *6 Speed* 2006 Honda Accord EX V6 Sedan
Переглядів 3,6 тис.10 місяців тому
Considering the fact that I’ve owned four of them already, I think it’s safe to say that the Honda Accord is my favorite car. For the most part, it’s “just” a family sedan, but Honda has typically done a good job at making it the family sedan for those who enjoy driving (we leave the 8th and 11th Gen out of this conversation). Nonetheless, the supreme Accord as far as I’ve always been concerned...

The 8th Gen Accord has probably always been my “least favorite” Accord-that is until the 11th Gen came out and solidified its place as the single worst Accord Honda has ever made (in my opinion, of course). When I came across this fully loaded 2010 Accord coupe with a manual, I had to check it out. Thanks for watching!

It’s been a little over a year since I parted ways with my second car, a 2004 Honda Accord EX-L with the K24 and 5 speed, and I can honestly say I missed it. When I came across this 06 Coupe, I had to at least go test drive it. I didn’t end up getting it, as the price was a bit too much, but it was an exceptionally nice car, and took me back to the driver’s seat of my former 7th Gen. Thanks for...

I’ve been fortunate enough to own four of my (very attainable) dream cars. Granted, the typical dream car is a Lamborghini or even an NSX, but my small fleet of Accords and one Civic Si has been an undoubtable accomplishment for me. Aside from that, I briefly talk about the most recent mechanical (electrical?) change to my Accord V6, getting rid of the bothersome VCM system. Thanks for watching!

It’s been about 5 months since I purchased my 2014 Honda Accord EX-L V6. Within that time, I’ve grown to truly love the car and look forward to owning it for many years to come.

The day that I never saw coming finally came about a week ago. My pride and joy, my 1998 Honda Accord EX V6 (Whitney) has finally moved on from my ownership. This was a very difficult decision, as I invested so much into the car-time, effort, and money included. While I honestly don’t expect anyone to keep up with it to the degree that I did (understandably), I hope it will serve its new owner ...

Your radio is much better than having the 06 nav. I have it and wish I had yours.
@@BP-xx8yu Sometimes I wish I had the nav screen just for the “look,” but I do wonder how well the maps have held up.
I got a red one 07 130 still like new
Nice purchase. I am jealous. I have an 06 sedan v6 manual as well, great condition 1 owner… but mine has the navigation screen I would much rather have your center console.
The manual is so much more fun. I got mine 6 months ago and I still smile every time I drive it.
@@shawnwright240 I bet! I love my 7th Gen manual V6, but I’m sure a 9th Gen feels even better.

Do you have a link to the back window spoiler?

I remember test driving 6 9th gen accord V6 accords and noticed the subtle vibrations on acceleration through the pedals and can audibly hear the sound of the VCM in each. I ended up buy in the one that had the least vibration and have put 17k miles on it, now the vibration has gotten worse. I’m gonna buy the part and hopefully it goes away 🫵🏽
@@elitespeeds6278 For sure, please do. In my car, I could feel and hear it kick in distinctly. It’s driven like a completely different car since disabling it.
I will keep the chrome piece how it is . But your car looks nice and smooth 🐐🫡
Much appreciated!
I love the look of the back of your car 😭🐐😭 . I want to add that to my 2017 accord touring. .it’s a beautiful look like sheeeeshhh 😭❄️ , I don’t like the original tail lights that I have as much as I like the one’s that your car has🫡

I bought the same car but a coupe in 2008. 98000km on it. I got rid of it in April with almost 420km. Best car I'll ever have owned.
@@Hightower613 They are undoubtedly great.
Did you have a pre purchase inspection done before you purchased it?
@@alixjean-paul3363 In this case, no. My first time seeing the car in person was when it was delivered-so definitely a “risk.”
Oh wow! Nice! Sounds like you lucked out. Sometimes I say that if I have a car shipped to me, I’d definitely would like to have it looked at before I get it, even locally, but more so if the car is coming from out of town. But sounds like you did well with this one.. Seems like that’s the way to get older vehicles though. Sounds like you did well with this one. Congrats! That thing is mint. Love older Hondas and Acuras
@@alixjean-paul3363 You and me both. Thanks! I will say-in general, everything checked out very well; there were some details not shown by the pictures or conversations with the dealer that I have/had to address myself, tires being one of them. Altogether, it drives like a dream though.
Oh nice! Not bad. I have Hondas and Acuras practically all my life. I’ve had 2 4th gen Accords, 2 2nd gen TLs and now I have 7th gen K24 07 to be exact. Overall I like the J Series better. But my current 7th gen is my work car since I do Rideshare and food delivery but I also use it as my personal as it’s the only vehicle I have right now. I plan on getting a 2nd gen TL Type S, 3rd gen TL or 6th or 7th gen as an additional/back up vehicle once I get the chance to. Miss the J Series
The only with those J Series is the automatic tranny failure
I like the trunk's spoiler and I think you should put a front bumper lip a side skirt and a rear bumper lip
@@jeanogato3327 Thanks, when I can afford to I’m going to add the factory HFP body kit (side skirts along with front and rear lips).

Yep, here’s the link. They’re honestly really cheap compared to when I bought them.

What size rims and tire sizes
@@garciadavid582 215/50/R17 for factory wheels/tires.
What a nice spec, wish i had a manual on my 07, although i do like the long gearing on the auto. Only 56k miles hopefully i can make it last.
Oh wow, 56k is quite literally not even broken in yet. I’ve never driven a 7th Gen V6 auto, but I imagine it’s pretty smooth.
I bought this exact car new December 2006. A timing belt, water pump, tensioner, accessory belts and front brakes were just put on this past May and my son has it now. Only 109,000 miles and just a perfect automobile. I miss it. Enjoy!
He’s definitely lucky! Timeless car that’ll last forever. Thanks!
I have a 9th gen accord sport. I can honestly say it’s by far my favorite car. From the reliability to the looks on the interior/exterior to just it all. Been modding it a little over a year now and I’m loving how the car is coming out 🫡
Nice! I’ve owned a 6th Gen, two 7th Gens, and my 9th Gen, and I love them all, but there’s something special about the 9th Gen for sure.
Never get rid of this car, my friend. Take a good care of your Honda and it will take care of you. I just hit 70K on my 2013 EXL i4 Accord with no issues so far since I bought it at the end of 2021. I got it over at Carmax with only 40K on it!!
Awesome! I never plan on getting rid of mine.
Great looking Accord! I’ve always loved those wheels. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for checking the video out!
Super clean ride!
Oh wow, thanks Tyson! Your channel was what inspired me to revive my former 6th Gen Accord, the namesake of this channel. Hope to have a fleet like yours someday. Means a lot!
These are fantastic cars- great driving experience, quick enough, and good on gas. I had an '06 6-6 coupe in black and an '06 6-6 sedan in blue. Both had 200K+ miles and were completely reliable.
For sure, I plan on owning this one for as long as possible.
I had one. Miss it so much…
I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of this one.

71k miles is nothing.. i have exactly the same car v6 mt in red color.. 210k miles and still riding like new
Nice! I plan to own this one until it has that many miles and beyond.

Man this thing is clean. I got the same one. Upgrading mine now. Good stuff
Thanks man, I appreciate it. Easily the best, smoothest, and most reliable car I could ask for.
How reliable has it been?
Problem-free so far. 🤞🏾
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 mileage?
@@ham5483 Just under 77,000
Please is the v6 good in gas?
@@allfathereco7733 It’s not terrible, but not as good as a 4Cyl. I can fill up for around $45 and get between 350 to 400 miles on a full tank.
9th gen sport 6 speed is not a v6?
No, the Sport has the 2.4L 4 cylinder (K24).
Hey am interested in getting a accord man l don't know if you had this issues man about oil consumption so l want to know your thoughts
Hey, the only car I’ve had with oil consumption issues was a 2004 Accord with the K24 (4Cyl). My other three Accords have all been V6’s and haven’t had that issue as well. Each engine definitely has its pluses and minuses.
Bruh idk whats up with mine have to get a oil change almost every month and have no leeks
What percent of window. Tint
5%
Where did you buy the oem spoiler?
Found it on EBay, already painted.
If i could get my hands on a V6 + 6-Speed Manual easily, I'd convert my European market 7th gen Accord Tourer (Wagon) into something that'd perform well. Sadly I'm stuck with a K20A6
Ahh, so would that be similar to the American-market Acura TSX?
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 Yeah, 1st gen TSX but inferior engine and in Wagon form
Hell yeah brother. Ive got a 06 accord sedan that i bought with 78k miles stock and it now has 100k and some various mods. I love this car. Please let me know if theres anything i can help you with. Tl-s sway bars! First performance mod id do. Good luck!
Thanks, much appreciated! I’m assuming that helps with handling?
@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 yes its main purpose is reducing body roll in corners upgrade makes the stock car feel like a 73 Lincoln continental in comparison I have done some other power mods and stuff as well but bar none biggest legitimate difference is the bars. PITA to install but cheap and well worth it.
@@catoilsalesman9158 Thanks for that info man. The car is definitely a blast to drive, but the fact that it’s still “just an Accord” shows up in corners.
You’re making me wanna go for a ride right now! Looking at your other video, the only differences between ours is, mine is bronze metallic with the lip spoiler, the other 5spoke 17 wheels, and fog lights!
Nice! The fog lights are honestly the only thing mine is missing that I wish it had.
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 yea, I love the look, honestly, I have the factory ones now… but a few years ago I bought the JDM style ones, but you have to modify the pocket and I’ve been too lazy to do it! Lol
Awesome car bro! I own a 2006 Accord as well, but it's automatic and it has the 2.4L (K24A4). Approximately 166k on the clock. You can't beat the V6 with a 6 speed though! Super solid cars...🤌🏽
Thanks! I had one with the K24 as well and even those are super good cars.
I had the automatic with an AEM v2 CAI, good car. Bought it with 54K miles and Traded it in with 110K for a Lexus ISF. Very good car, really liked it, weak top end power though.
For sure! My first car was an automatic with the J30 and I loved that one as well. I bet the IS-F is amazing though.
Thanks for the review! Does it have auto start?
Thanks for watching! Thats the one feature it doesn’t have, but I wish it did. The Touring (one trim above this) got remote start standard, but it was an option in the EX-L.
Sounds good, I just purchased a used one but it’s being serviced. I hear this car has electrical issues specifically pertaining to the starter. Any thoughts on that ?
@@chrisg.7625 I have heard the same, and honestly my car’s starter has been struggling recently. Occasionally, it’ll whir and almost make a scratching noise. After a few rounds of cycling the engine start button, it starts without a problem, but I take it as a sign that the starter will need to be replaced soon.
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 There’s an open recall on the auto check by Honda for accord models from 2013-2016 that reads : “safety Recall: REPLACE BATTERY MGMT SENSOR Status: Remedy Available” not sure if this can relate to the starter issue but just thought you should know. I’m gonna have mine checked once I get it
@@chrisg.7625 Ahh, got it. Thanks for that info!
This is the best looking accord with mods that I’ve seen so far. Where did you get the spoiler?
Thanks, I appreciate that. My goal was to keep it simple and tasteful. Spoiler is a replica of the OEM one that was offered for the car. I got it from spoilersource.com
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 Thanks!!
These cars become a different beast with just a ktuner v2, disable vcm (can cause serious engine issues), also allows you to improve the shifts dramatically faster, and increase power too if you want. Honestly turns this car from a slow shifting family car into a real drivers car.
For sure! Fortunately, I’ve already down the VCM delete, and it has made a world of difference. Now that I have a 6 speed Accord as a second car, I’m going to keep this one stock and keep it as a daily driver until it can’t drive anymore.
Drive it as much as you can don’t save the mileage…
It’s my daily driver, so it’s definitely racking up miles.
You made a great decision, I own a 2016 v6 accord too and it has been great. All round good looking car and drives very smooth and has been very reliable
For sure! 3 out of the 5 cars I’ve owned have been Accord V6’s and I’ve adored each one.
what happened to the 2015? i had one of these sedans in manual. 2003 6spd in that silver. I enjoyed it but it was modified a lot and needed a lot of work so I ended up getting rid of it, now i have an auto (sadly) 02 sedan
The 2014 is still here, that’ll actually still be my daily driver.
@@whitneythe6thgenaccord680 any modifications planned for it?
@@starlitsorrow Honestly not that I can think of right now, I’ve always liked the way these looked stock, so nothing cosmetic planned, and I’m gonna start off with preventative maintenance before I get into any mechanical mods.
