I consider myself a pretty big car nerd. I really appreciate how calm you are through the video and the less “professional” angles and bull crap you skip and just give real life angles. Nice work.
I don't understand how people think this Accord doesn't look good, but I guess that's subjective. I love it. I have a 2013 Sport, and I'll be getting the Sport 1.5t in the fall.
I think the tailights look incomplete and on the big accord out of place compared to the smaller civic. The front headlights are great, but the grill number, shield, lower bumper is a bit muchand looks disjointed to some if they just looked at the cleaner fronts on the Mazda 6 and Ford Fusion, etc. The side no loger has full chromw surrounds like accords of old and no coupe, and looks like a crosstour and civic too much and not its own car. Still a great car though. Interior looks great.
I just got the 1.5 sport. 2018 with no miles. I freaking love it. I wanted the 2.0 or the touring but they had sold out of em at my dealership. But I still love mine, awesome car.
My dealership didn't have the one I wanted either but they brought it down from their delivery point. I wanted the 2.0T with the 6-speed manual, I didn't care what color - it's white metallic... I'm loving it!
-- The 1.5 comes with Goodyear tires. -- The 2.0 comes with Michelin tires. The Michelin tires are better, in that they will take turns better. If you never push the car hard into a turn, then you will not notice any difference. But the Goodyear tires will break loose before the Michelin tires. Otherwise, they are the same size, same life expectancy (500 treadwear rating -- although that value can have a different meaning from one manufacturer to another), same traction rating ("A", which is wet road stopping in a straight line traction), and same temperature rating ("A"), which is how well they dissipate heat. -- The 2.0 comes with a remote starter. The 1.5 does not. -- The 2.0 has larger brakes than the 1.5. -- The 2.0 has a 10-speed, traditional transmission. The 1.5 has a CV transmission. (both cars are available with manual transmissions, too) -- The 2.0 has a trunk release button on the rear of the car (I do not believe that the 1.5 has that button). Both cars can open the trunk from a button on the door or on the remote. Get the optional cargo net, installed by the dealer. It kind of sucks, compared to other nets in other cars, due to its placement in the trunk. But it works. Without it, if you put shopping bags in the trunk, they will slide all over the place. -- The stereo is not good. Also, it is not bad. Honda did a nothing special job with the stereo. Either they cut corners to save a few dollars, or the person in charge of that department is clueless. Some people will like how it sounds. If it makes them happy -- great. But Honda dropped the ball, because they could have tuned the stereo components better, and probably for the same price. Cheers!
I have a 1.5t and I love it. My mom has a '13 EX-L V6 which is still the fastest Accord sedan to date, in both 0-60 and 1/4 mile, followed by the Touring sedan models introduced in '16 and all 10th gen Tourings introduced in '18.
Bought a 2019 1.5 sport manual, pearl white. Absolutely love it! Honda did a great job. In my humble opinion, can't go wrong, both, 1.5 or 2.0 are excellent. Some people might have an issue with the 1.5 cvt transmission. But you can always go manual. Very beautiful cars.
The front fascia is subtly aggressive , yet exhibits a very elegant presence with the integrated LED headlights and fog lights for the sport trims . The rear will eventually grow on you. Though the taillights are awfully reminiscent of the civic design language , the rectangular housed dual-spoke exhausts will make up to present an overall simple and humble cue
Won’t be disappointed if you get the 1.5 with manual. Handles a bit better than the 2.0. Power is better than you would think with tiny 1.5. I’m getting 35 mpg driving to work and I don’t drive easy. The 2.0 Manuel def feels more powerful.
My first Honda was a 2017 Accord Sport, I recently traded it in for a 2020 Accord Sport 1.5L and I love it. The only thing I would change are the rims. I prefer the 2017 rims over the factory rims on the 2020.
I was one of the ones that said it's so ugly when first introduced and now it's looking more normal when I see one. The side profile is looking sleeker and sleeker especially with the Sport Wheels. This is from someone who has a V6 16 coupe that I love and says I'd never get the new Accord because of no V6 and no more Coupe. I'm actually considering the 2.0t in red.
First time i saw this car on the road was from the side. Thought it was some variation of an audi. The new accord at some angles, look like the audi s7/rs7. Really looks sleeker in person. Design is very mature versus the new camry which to me looks like it was modified by some teenager with some aftermarket body kits.
Not mentioned in this video is that the "Sport" model has the best handling of any of the Accords (and the 2.0 is best overall, because its Michelin tires have better lateral stability as compared to the Goodyear tires that come on the 1.5). You are paying for the handling that is engineered into the Sport model. So if you have no plans to ever push the car around a turn, then the sport model is probably not a good choice for you (unless you just prefer its looks, due to its 19" wheels). You can save a bundle and get the LX model. It has good looking wheels. But not as good as the sport model, and the wheels are smaller and do not use low profile tires (which could be good, depending on the type of driver you are and the type of road feel that you want (low profile means that the tires have less sidewall than regular tires)). This host, while driving the 2.0, kind of made the 1.5 sound like it is slow. It is not. The 1.5 has respectable power. If you drive the 1.5 (and not the 2.0), you will probably be pleased with its power. But if you then drive the 2.0, you might have trouble going back to the 1.5. So if you cannot budget the 2.0, then do not drive it. Once you drive the 2.0, you will not want the 1.5 (and the 1.5 is very good). But if drive a Corvette, you will not think that the 2.0 is very powerful (and it is). So it is all relative. The Sport model and the Touring model come with low profile tires (great for handling -- taking turns). So there is not too much cushion for absorbing bumps. The suspension is really good. But the problem is if you hit a large pothole, the tires will not have enough space between them and the rims to protect the rims, resulting in breaking a rim. That push-button shifting is very good, although it does, sometimes, get in your way. For example, if you want to open your door to look back as you are inching the car backwards, you are out of luck. When the door opens, the car shifts into park. Yes, there is a camera for reverse. But sometimes you need to see something directly. And in bad weather, the camera could be blurred from rain or snow.
I have the 2.0 Sport with the 6-speed manual and it is far more fun to drive than any automatic. But that's me... Nice job on the video. BTW, mine is the 2020.
The green light on the corners of the dash bezel are dark green when the engine is most efficient. When accelerating aggressively the green lights dim.
Love my '20 Accord Touring 2.0T. It's a lot of car for the money. The engine is a gem! Does not feel underpowered at all. Great torque and a smooth drive and ride.
Only the 2.0L Sport has blind spot monitoring... the 1.5L Sport doesn’t. The 1.5L Sport also doesn’t have the rear passenger air-vents and remote start. Those are however available on the 2.0L.
I was wondering that. I have the 2.0T and I have the mirror monitoring. My husband was thinking of getting the 1.5 Sport and we were trying to figure out what it has.
basically the 1.5t is built on the LX platform, so it has the most basic of the options. Honda really should have built both sport options on the EX platform, because the LX is lacking in so many ways compared to the EX. The LX gets no proximity key, no remote start, no cross traffic monitor/blind spot monitor, no sun roof, no 8 inch display.. there's probably more, but that was enough for me..
Just purchased a 2.0T EX-L ( Changing the wheels ) and I absolutely love it. I owned a 2018 Honda Civic SI with the 1.5T and realllllly wanted the Type R engine. Went with the Accord because I am almost 40 and driving a manual was getting old in traffic every day for me. Love the 10 speed auto! By far the best car I have ever owned so far.
I have 27 years on you, I'm retired and went for the 2.0T manual for my security, few drive them anymore and having the sunroof means that I don't need to open the windows. I got the 2020 Sport two months ago and am really enjoying it!
@@MrScoobieman Try living in south Tacoma Washington driving up HWY 167 daily toward Seattle and get back to me on how long you last with a manual transmission. I wouldn't want a manual in that situation even if I was still 16 years old. Some of the most exhausting driving you will do.....THAT was the only reason I went with the 10-speed because I absolutely loved the manual in the SI. I recently moved to San Diego California...and now find myself wanting another manual again because the drive's around here are so much more tolerable.
I am also in San Diego. If you want to quench that desire for another manual let me know! 😅 how are you liking the accord compared to the si as far as daily driving?
@@IsThatChadHondaReviews Small world for sure....damn. I am actually living in Vista, CA now and wow...what a difference compared to Tacoma Washington ( course, I lived on the east coast most of my life ). I absolutely love the Accord but ill be honest, I purchased it for the traffic I was driving in. I wanted something comfortable that still had some "Umphhh" to it. I am a Honda fan boy and this will be my 5th Honda I've owned. I actually got to drive an Accord when they first came out and loved it ( same with the Civic ). Compared to the SI, they are just different machines. The SI was def more finely tuned for performance, it handled literally every bit as good as my BRZ and the manual was one of the absolutely best I ever owned in my life. The Accord is definitely better for daily life if you live in high traffic areas.....the 10 speed is an absolute beast and considering I have the EX-L with the shitty commuting wheels and tires...the Accord actually holds its own in the corners. I am used to winding mountain roads up in NC mountains so I really know how to push cars into the corners and I have been really impressed with the Accord in that aspect, especially for its size. Overall the Accord with the 2.0T to me is nearly the perfect commuter car for the price but the SI is definitely better if you are looking for a performance oriented machine. In hindsight I Honestly kinda regret trading my SI in for the Accord for that reason because I would rather own a more performance oriented car here in San Diego. I am really thinking about getting a Mazda Miata RF Manual but I haven't made up my mind yet. I would only have a 2019 or above but I may wait another year for the price to drop on the used market as they are still near retail.

I test drove a 1.5 and a 2.0 I bought a brand new Lunar Silver 2019 Accord Sport 2.0 and I absolutely LOVE everything about it. I prefer the 2.0 over the 1.5, much faster and so much better. Way worth the hefty price tag and soooo fast. I'm in love with mines.
Hands down 2.0T for me. The 2.0T Sport is basically an EX 2.0T with bigger wheels, no side mirror signals, and an optional manual transmission. (I'm surprised that the side mirror signals aren't standard on all trims.) the 1.5T Sport is pretty much an LX with bigger wheels and, again, the option of a manual transmission. Does the 1.5T Sport have a power driver's seat? Oh, also, the 2.0T has a 6-speaker stereo system, whereas the 1.5T has the 4-speaker system. I went with the 2.0T manual myself. No regrets.
I have a 2019 1.5 L, and my God nothing has happened once. 0 problems, and got a new exhaust system for it. You don't have to do anything else to it. Sounds like a beast
Terry T how many miles does your car have . I’m looking into buying an accord but not sure if the 2.0 L is worth it or not or if I should just get the 1.5 .
I love this car, but that tiny ass sunroof is lame. I have the camry XSE with the panoramic sunroof. i didn’t even originally want it. You had to wait to get the xse trim level last fall. The dealer was able to get me one a little quicker with the roof. we already had agreed on the price, so it was a free add on. Now that i have it, it is Sooooo nice. Honda needs to step up on this
Just so you guys know, Panoramic sunroof is a weakest point in roof during crashes. Honda redesigned roof structure one of their models in acura just to provide equivalent safety as normal sunroof.
Where I live (Bronx NY) you need to get some rim lock or any type of locks for your rims if you own a accord from the 2018-2022 year model. They get stolen a lot.
Dude, All you gotta say is that the 1.5 is an LX with some added options including the half leather seats. On the 2.0 you get the EX features with the only difference that you get the half leather seats that's all.. Simple!
we own a red 2017 Sport. I would love to test the 2.0 turbo for comparison. we have had it for a little more than a year ~20k miles. reliable, comfortable and economical are it's strong suits. You aren't going to win many races, but it is a fun car anyway - it handles the curves better than accelerates out of the gate. After driving the CVT for a year, i would never mate a turbo with it - it seems to keep the RPM in a very narrow band. The turbo engine here has nearly peak torque below 2k RPM. Get out of that range quickly and let it spin. I am partial to the manual gearboxes anyway, so kind of suffering with the CVT. it works fine for groceries, highway wandering, kid taxi and pretty much everything (i'm just not a fan).
I like how the 2.0 has a sunroof but don’t like the idea of a 10 speed automatic. That’s way too many gears to be shifting through. I’m sure a 2.0 turbo is more fun to drive but a faster engine means worse gas mileage. I don’t want to have to pay the cost of having a 2.0 liter every time I go to the pump. I’m gonna get the 1.5 liter.
The seats are vinyl (leatherette) and cloth in the 1.5t, not leather and cloth. The only leather is the wrapped shift knob and steering wheel (per the sticker).
Did you drive the 10 speed automatic transmission for comparison? Don't like the CRT, and I'm going with the 6 manual. Just curious if you drove the 10 speed auto. Trans
They're getting hard to find! Honda was the best choice for the manual, Toyota isn't offering it in the Camry. Traded my '17 Camry, barely broken in, on the Accord Sport 2.0T because I was bored with the Camry.
I definitely love the 2018 models, they're beautiful, pictures don't really accurately portray this car well. Once you see one glide by you or park beside you, anything you didn't like about the car will go away
You can get a sprint booster for it and the 1.5 will probably feel like the 2.0. I got a 2.0 and added sprint booster v3 and I don’t even need sport mode anymore.
I have a 2016 Sport, I definitely don't like the back end and the rims on the 2018. Now I think the 2.0T I would like! I'll stay with my 2016 for now I love it.
You forgot to mention the 1.5T has a CVT and the 2.0T has an all new 10 speed auto.
The 2.0T does not have a CVT.

I just bought the 2018 sport 1.5 t and it definitely pulls better then previous years.
Louis Lee I believe it. Same way a lot of people are complaining about Honda getting rid of the V6. The 2.0T is faster and pulls harder.

Honda really should have built both sport options on the EX platform, because the LX is lacking in so many ways compared to the EX. The LX gets no proximity key, no remote start, no cross traffic monitor/blind spot monitor, no sun roof, no 8 inch display.. there's probably more, but that was enough for me..
@@Sami.the.auto.advisor The rear air vents are not available on the 2.0T. I would encourage you to research again.
The 2018 honda accord, has a beautiful front end. However the rear is ugly. They should have made it, like the 2017 accord rear.
Johnny Rivera I owned one for 6 months now and honestly it look really good.
Johnny Rivera agreed front is glorious the back is blah
The Civics are uglier than Accords.
Just purchased a 2.0T EX-L ( Changing the wheels ) and I absolutely love it. I owned a 2018 Honda Civic SI with the 1.5T and realllllly wanted the Type R engine. Went with the Accord because I am almost 40 and driving a manual was getting old in traffic every day for me. Love the 10 speed auto! By far the best car I have ever owned so far.
I have 27 years on you, I'm retired and went for the 2.0T manual for my security, few drive them anymore and having the sunroof means that I don't need to open the windows. I got the 2020 Sport two months ago and am really enjoying it!
I’m 40 and totally getting the manual!
@@MrScoobieman Try living in south Tacoma Washington driving up HWY 167 daily toward Seattle and get back to me on how long you last with a manual transmission. I wouldn't want a manual in that situation even if I was still 16 years old. Some of the most exhausting driving you will do.....THAT was the only reason I went with the 10-speed because I absolutely loved the manual in the SI. I recently moved to San Diego California...and now find myself wanting another manual again because the drive's around here are so much more tolerable.
I am also in San Diego. If you want to quench that desire for another manual let me know! 😅 how are you liking the accord compared to the si as far as daily driving?
@@IsThatChadHondaReviews Small world for sure....damn. I am actually living in Vista, CA now and wow...what a difference compared to Tacoma Washington ( course, I lived on the east coast most of my life ). I absolutely love the Accord but ill be honest, I purchased it for the traffic I was driving in. I wanted something comfortable that still had some "Umphhh" to it. I am a Honda fan boy and this will be my 5th Honda I've owned. I actually got to drive an Accord when they first came out and loved it ( same with the Civic ). Compared to the SI, they are just different machines. The SI was def more finely tuned for performance, it handled literally every bit as good as my BRZ and the manual was one of the absolutely best I ever owned in my life. The Accord is definitely better for daily life if you live in high traffic areas.....the 10 speed is an absolute beast and considering I have the EX-L with the shitty commuting wheels and tires...the Accord actually holds its own in the corners. I am used to winding mountain roads up in NC mountains so I really know how to push cars into the corners and I have been really impressed with the Accord in that aspect, especially for its size. Overall the Accord with the 2.0T to me is nearly the perfect commuter car for the price but the SI is definitely better if you are looking for a performance oriented machine. In hindsight I Honestly kinda regret trading my SI in for the Accord for that reason because I would rather own a more performance oriented car here in San Diego. I am really thinking about getting a Mazda Miata RF Manual but I haven't made up my mind yet. I would only have a 2019 or above but I may wait another year for the price to drop on the used market as they are still near retail.
I got the 1.5 all black the 2.0 definitely drivers better and stereo sound better but a lil too expensive for my pockets...
The price of the 2.0 is definetely a lot of money. The 1.5 is still an awesome car. Congrats on Yours! If you have any questions lmk!
I have 2.0 and I think it has the same sound system
Yeah I'm pretty sure it's the same 8 speaker system
ECcoasters it is the exact same stereo. The drive is the same just bigger power train.
Does the 1.5L have the blind spot indicators in the mirrors?
I saw 1 in person and IT IS actually looks nicer than in the videos.
I love both of the 2018 models, but id have to go with the 2.0 on this one. It looks so sleek and fun to drive!
First time i saw this car on the road was from the side. Thought it was some variation of an audi. The new accord at some angles, look like the audi s7/rs7. Really looks sleeker in person. Design is very mature versus the new camry which to me looks like it was modified by some teenager with some aftermarket body kits.
I test drove a 1.5 and a 2.0 I bought a brand new Lunar Silver 2019 Accord Sport 2.0 and I absolutely LOVE everything about it. I prefer the 2.0 over the 1.5, much faster and so much better. Way worth the hefty price tag and soooo fast. I'm in love with mines.
Is the ride quality a little too firm? Those are very thin tires.
Gary Z get the EX-L, it has 17” wheels. Much smoother ride than the 19” sport wheels.
I have the touring 2.0 and I love it.
how much you get on MPG?
Accord 2.0 and tyre r have same engine block n crank. Just bought 2.0 switched from 2015 v4. I love it
Just got 2.0 sport. Love beasty roar
2.0 roars like a cat
Hands down 2.0T for me. The 2.0T Sport is basically an EX 2.0T with bigger wheels, no side mirror signals, and an optional manual transmission. (I'm surprised that the side mirror signals aren't standard on all trims.) the 1.5T Sport is pretty much an LX with bigger wheels and, again, the option of a manual transmission. Does the 1.5T Sport have a power driver's seat?
Oh, also, the 2.0T has a 6-speaker stereo system, whereas the 1.5T has the 4-speaker system.
I went with the 2.0T manual myself. No regrets.
It does have a power driver seat.
Why does it bug me there is no turn signals on the mirrors
I have a 2019 1.5 L, and my God nothing has happened once. 0 problems, and got a new exhaust system for it. You don't have to do anything else to it. Sounds like a beast
Terry T how many miles does your car have . I’m looking into buying an accord but not sure if the 2.0 L is worth it or not or if I should just get the 1.5 .
I love how it shows the speed limit on the 2.0T. First time seeing something like that
It does on the 1.5 too
Sunroof is the the deal breaker
Tony Tanti Agreed! I'm looking at the new Mazda6 2.5T grand touring it comes with a sunroof and it's the midgrade before the signature package!
Seriously tho, i have a 1.5t with a sunroof i don’t know what’s the deal there
I love this car, but that tiny ass sunroof is lame. I have the camry XSE with the panoramic sunroof. i didn’t even originally want it. You had to wait to get the xse trim level last fall. The dealer was able to get me one a little quicker with the roof. we already had agreed on the price, so it was a free add on. Now that i have it, it is Sooooo nice. Honda needs to step up on this
Joseph Wargo i agreed, conventional sunroof is outdated period.
Just so you guys know, Panoramic sunroof is a weakest point in roof during crashes. Honda redesigned roof structure one of their models in acura just to provide equivalent safety as normal sunroof.
Where I live (Bronx NY) you need to get some rim lock or any type of locks for your rims if you own a accord from the 2018-2022 year model. They get stolen a lot.
Dude, All you gotta say is that the 1.5 is an LX with some added options including the half leather seats. On the 2.0 you get the EX features with the only difference that you get the half leather seats that's all.. Simple!
yep
It has sport tuned suspension
Amazing review. I will go for 1.5 because of the price
Thank you so much. And good luck!
It's hard to find a 2.0.
No?
@@buildmorefarms1007 Used. Yes.
@@N3wbMa5t3r Theres plenty here in the northeast
Have the 2.0LT black on black!!! And I’m in love!!!
Beautiful , thanks for the insight bossman 💪🏾
I like the touring 2.0 model
we own a red 2017 Sport. I would love to test the 2.0 turbo for comparison. we have had it for a little more than a year ~20k miles. reliable, comfortable and economical are it's strong suits. You aren't going to win many races, but it is a fun car anyway - it handles the curves better than accelerates out of the gate.
After driving the CVT for a year, i would never mate a turbo with it - it seems to keep the RPM in a very narrow band. The turbo engine here has nearly peak torque below 2k RPM. Get out of that range quickly and let it spin. I am partial to the manual gearboxes anyway, so kind of suffering with the CVT. it works fine for groceries, highway wandering, kid taxi and pretty much everything (i'm just not a fan).
I like how the 2.0 has a sunroof but don’t like the idea of a 10 speed automatic. That’s way too many gears to be shifting through. I’m sure a 2.0 turbo is more fun to drive but a faster engine means worse gas mileage. I don’t want to have to pay the cost of having a 2.0 liter every time I go to the pump. I’m gonna get the 1.5 liter.
which did you end up purchasing?
Awesome thank you man!
Why doesn’t the 1.5 have an engine cover?
The sunroof, remote start and proximity lock/unlock are available in the 1.5 Accord EX 2019.
Really?!
I have the 1.5 I love it
Oooo I got the red one 2.0 6spd and it is F-U-N
That's what I got and, yes, it's F U N!!! I got the 2020 in white.
Great choice I used to sell Hondas and believe me we could never keep the 2.0 turbo on the lot
Got a ex 1.5 and love it
Even though you can Google it. I appreciate you showing the price.. Everyone who does the car reviews almost never show the price.
Thanks for the video home boy.
love the panel gap on the front with sport 2.0T. Honda needs to fix this issue
Hella solid review👍👍
Great video love the cars
Definitely a difference In performance Had to switch over to the 2.0
The seats are vinyl (leatherette) and cloth in the 1.5t, not leather and cloth. The only leather is the wrapped shift knob and steering wheel (per the sticker).
That red one is sexy 🙋🏾♂️...put the civic type-R rims on it and U got me sold on it😏👍
I saw your camaro today it looks so good
2.0 t all the way, best Accord ever made. I want one. 10 speed automatic rocks.
I got the 2.0T with manual trans; the car is a hoot to drive, total rocket. I've surprised so many people that try to pull ahead.
VanGogh34 that torque makes it fast!
Tested both in 6 speed manual. It was a no brainier - 2.0T 6MT all the way.
Did you drive the 10 speed automatic transmission for comparison?
Don't like the CRT, and I'm going with the 6 manual. Just curious if you drove the 10 speed auto. Trans
Where are the manuals? Everyone I see is automatic
they hve them
Bought our 2.0 manual two weeks ago because my wife wanted a manual and didn’t like the way the Si sedan looked. We love it.
They're getting hard to find! Honda was the best choice for the manual, Toyota isn't offering it in the Camry. Traded my '17 Camry, barely broken in, on the Accord Sport 2.0T because I was bored with the Camry.
I have the red one 2k18 I love it ❣
Hi
Adriana Martinez muahxx
I got the 2019 1.5 sport off the chain
Aren't you supposed to keep the RPMs below 4k in a new engine?
Supposedly you don’t have to break the engines in anymore. At least that’s what they told me with these new ones at the Honda dealership.
In Canada the 1,5 comes with sunroof and same key fob options as the 2.0T
the Panther fan...I almost bought a '17 off you...crazy how I randomly ended up on your page.
Well, if there is anything I can do to earn your Buisness please conf back and see me! I'll get you a great deal. 😁
I definitely love the 2018 models, they're beautiful, pictures don't really accurately portray this car well. Once you see one glide by you or park beside you, anything you didn't like about the car will go away
FACTS THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL
No one parks beside me, I park a long way from anyone in a parking lot... don't want it getting dinged up.
Just gonna ease into this 3/4 throttle, AKA redline it! Haha
😂 rpms climbed faster than I thought they were going to
Is it worth trading from 1.5 to 2.0 sport?
Good Video Brother good review
Thank you 🙇🏿♂️
1.5 L 192 hp nice
Goat accord hands down
I got the 2017 sport n the 2018 came 2months after...I wouldve been tight...but i love the 2017 sport way more n the rims is perfect
You can get a sprint booster for it and the 1.5 will probably feel like the 2.0. I got a 2.0 and added sprint booster v3 and I don’t even need sport mode anymore.
I have a 2016 Sport, I definitely don't like the back end and the rims on the 2018. Now I think the 2.0T I would like! I'll stay with my 2016 for now I love it.
The fact that those wheels are the most stolen ones in the country just tells you how beautiful they are. Idk how you can’t like them
@@luisfermin608 I'm sorry I wrote it wrong, I don't like the rims and the back end of the 2018 sport... sorry for the confusion, 😆
Can you do a accord 2.0t vs civic si video?
Got the 2.0 ,a part of me want's to fuck wit it the other part of me just wants to leave it stock cuz it looks clean
Lmaooo $26,800 is what i paid for my 2.0T with 25k miles clean record 2018
honda accord 2018 2.0 or bmw 528i f10 2016?? what do you think?
