      Yeah, I agree. I've owned 3 Honda Accords. Beautiful car's; and this current generation is BEAUTIFULLY styled...what a sexy head turning car...I LOVE it. The inside interior styling is equally as gorgeous. The quality of material, fit and finish is stupendous ! This car just does everything so well, PERFECT ! And the size of interior space and trunk are beyond the class. A 16.8 cubic foot trunk, over 40 inches of rear leg room,: unbelievable ! The performance of ALL Accord models; the 1.5 T and the 2.0 Turbo will not leave anyone wanting for more. The 1.5T can do 0-60 in just 7.0 seconds, ( and this is the baseline engine), whilst the 2.0T can burn though 60 mph in just 5.5 seconds with that amazing 10 speed transmission. The handling follows suit as well with over 0.90 G's of lateral road holding. this car has everything you need. It's really perfect.

    My dad have the 2014 Honda Accord till this day. It drives great. Very stable. Interior looks very luxurious and clean but the only annoying thing is about the Piano Black trims, need to clean it up when there's some kind of dust or dirt. Other than that is just beautiful. The size of the Accord is really large eventhough it's a mid-size sedan. Very comfortable and it performs great on the highway... I'm surprised that even this size of car can reached up to 240km/h (around 149mph) despite its large size and the weight though. Great review on this Accord too. Love the redesign. Very beautiful.

    My wife has this vehicle. My only zonks are the lack of adjustment for passenger seat and the low profile tires. She goes "curb hunting" way to much for me and has scuffed all four rims. It is a great car for the money as you can get a new one in the mid 30's. Honda Sensing works well and the adaptive cruise control is so nice on long trips. Great review Joe!

      I’m saying if you want a Honda V6 you need to get Acura. Still the same reliable engine, it’s their way of boosting sales for Acura. It is seen as a more premium brand, Honda meant to be a good/cheap brand focusing on technology not driving performance capabilities.

    Even though the impact of the Takata airbag crisis had largely subsided by 2017, Honda still put aside 520 billion yen ($4.8 billion) in the 12 months through March 2017 for product warranties and over 450 billion in each of the past two years.
    In the four years before the Takata debacle, warranty provisions ranged from 171 billion to 274 billion yen, before surging to 727 billion in the year ending March 2016.
    According to five Honda insiders, quality blunders have helped squeeze the operating margin at its global automotive business to 2-3 percent -- giving it less room for maneuvers just as bigger rivals are building partnerships and overhauling their operations to become stronger.
    That’s in stark contrast to Honda’s motorcycle business which has already brought its r&d division in-house and has a margin of 13.9 percent.
    In J.D. Power’s study of vehicle dependability in the United States, one of Honda’s two main auto markets along with China, the Japanese brand fell to 18th place this year from 5th in 2015 and 4th in 2002, its highest ranking. Autonews

    Only thing I don't like in this car and in most modern cars is the stupid electronic push button transmission shifter, it will most likely stop working in the long run just like other electronics. The push button start/off I don't mind since it actually serves a purpose of not having to take out your key fob outta your pocket to start and it also is a small minor fix if it goes out, but the shifter serves absolutely no purpose in being a button.

      Jankuba Kromah NL I don’t have the V6 Camry but I do own the 2018 SE Camry 4 cylinder.
      Camry is a good car but for me Honda is the way to go for the following:
      1. Cabin is bigger. I have been lucky enough to drive my fathers Honda Sport 1.5t and I must say it’s a lot more spacious in the driver side. Which for me is a big deal because I live in Illinois and I have wear a big winter jacket in the winter. While wearing it, I feel restricted. Again this my opinion on it.
      2. 10 speed feels less jerky and awkward than the 8 speed
      3. What the accord lacks in power, it makes up in torque. With that said it can get to traveling speeds efficiently. At least that’s how it felt in my dads Honda
      3. Again it’s cheaper
      4 Lastly Honda makes more of their powerful engine variant than Toyota. If Toyota made more V6s I would get the the Toyota

      Hi Anuj - how has the car been for you in terms of reliability? Heard the "sensing" sensor is prone to debris causing the entire dash to light up like a Christmas tree. Secondly, I've seen a lot of these X gen accords having very sensitive front windscreens that easily crack.
      I used to own a 9th gen V6 accord and that car absolutely needed nothing but regular oil changes for the 40K miles that I had it for.
      Thanks!

      @@khibulls Hi man, how is it going? I have been having a great time owning the 10th Gen. Accord. Until now I haven't really faces an issue with the Honda Sensing sensor malfunctioning in any way plus the windshield seems to be fine with no noise or vibrations creeping into the interior. Only thing as a downside I have noticed on the car until now is the fact that the 19 inch rims on the Touring model seems to eliminate a large portion of the road noise generated but still that is something that can be improved as over slightly rough patches the decibels start to annoy me. There is one more issue that I was aware of even while purchasing the car & that is the fact that the Side Mirrors are not electrically folding in as Honda has built in a way where it can bend in the opposite direction upon impact & not break which makes sense but when moving with the car in tight spaces, I really need to stretch myself on the right size to fold the mirror which is honestly annoying. Other than the above mentioned issues, I honestly am satisfied with the vehicle & hopefully Honda can come with better noise dampening methods & Electrically adjustable side mirrors in the next refresh for this model. Take care man!

    Great review as always, Joe! You are one of the best most entertaining reviewers I've seen - anywhere! I have driven many happy hours in my Accord 2.0T Touring. I love it as much as the day I first bought it - maybe more because I have discovered more and more things about it I love - and I know I don't use the tech to it's fullest potential. It is truly an awesome car. As a side note, on more than one occasion when getting on a freeway on ramp and I have a jerk tailgater behind me trying to go fast (I am behaving myself safely speeding up on the on ramp to safely merge on to the freeway), I've had enough and put it in sport and gas it (maybe only halfway down). I leave the guy in the dust and you can tell the guy is really trying to catch up. I'm sure he had a reaction like, "I did NOT expect that from that car”...😛

    The only problem with a turbocharger is that they don't last as long as the engine and will eventually have to be replaced. When that happens, chances are, the car will no longer be under warranty and will set you back roughly $1700 for parts and labor. For that reason i'm glad I went with the Camry SE.

    I was a little hesitant to go from a V6 Accord to the 2.0T four but my Grandson's 2008 Acura RDX has the same basic engine, known as the K engine and all that I have determined is it is a very reliable and durable engine. I have a 2019 Touring and feel it is the best driving car I have ever owned, extremely pleased with it after just over a year. My only disappointment is that it does have more road noise when on course road surfaces than I would like. I considered adding the factory accessory of two USB outlets for the back seat but instead keep a long cord plugged in one of the two USB outlets in the center console with the cord in one of the pockets on the back of the front seat. No complaints from our teen age grandchildren in the back seat. I have another car and a truck but they always want us to take the Accord and they prod Grandpa to "gun it". They like the acceleration.☺
