    I love it ! I’ve been looking for a mid size sedan and drove the Mazda 6 , Camry and the Passat and the accord is by far the best of this segment.

    Excellent review with honest criticism, when most reviewers are gushing over this car as if it is the greatest thing since sliced bread. The are other mid size cars out there that deserve praise, the Accord may be the best but it is not alone in the mid size segment.

  • @petemama5448
    @petemama5448 5 років тому +1

    I differ when you said no one is buying the Accord sedan because it's sporty. I haven't driven the Mazda but I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt and assume it's a little more sporty than the Accord. Where I differ is that the Sport trim is a solid buy if you want an all around capable sporty sedan. With safety tech and loads of torque; which is unheard of for an Accord, it's price point makes the sedan a smart sporty sedan buy. Modifying it will also add to its sporty tendencies. In this class I would choose this over a V6 sedan. It's lighter because of the turbo 4, and this cannot be overlooked on twisty roads and on and off ramps.

  • @pedroc6823

    It is also the loudest in cabin . Noisy engine and insulation is poor. I had one as a loaner. Was so happy to get my 13 Accord V6 back from service. Nothing as smooth as that V6. Just wait until those turbos start going.

    I think it’s an awesome looking sedan ,it’s very handsome. I’ll have to get used to the rear end view of it, I really think that 2018 is a really beautiful year model . In my opinion it’s not quite as handsome as it’s counterpart 2017 year model ,I love the fact that they stretched it but shortened it ,I like the fact that they’re giving a lot of more standard features that was obsolete in 2017. I think it’s going to bring a lot of buyers on a more professional level to purchase this vehicle and I must say the 2018 accord still remains The enthusiasts and drivers car/drivers choice .I think it will bring record sales to not only the midsize car market but Honda as well #CongratulationsHondaYouGotAWinner

    Does the 2.0 Sport 6MT have a turbo boost meter as one of the options for the left dial / gauge in the instrument cluster? The 10-Speed automatic Sport has one when it’s in “Sport Mode,” but since the 6MT has no “Sport Mode,” does it also not have turbo boost meter?

  • @joelozano7254

    I have the new 1.5 touring and the premium sound system is aweful. My current Genesis is crazy amazing when it comes to the sound. I would never expect the honda to even come close to that, but the truth is I wasnt expecting it to sound like a KMART KRACO Special either. Honda needs to partner with a sound brand to put out some decent sound. Im a little pissed off that my 35K Honda sounds like pure crap.

    • @dougreimer2912
      @dougreimer2912 5 років тому

      You should have tested the audio more before purchasing, I'm surprised to hear this given the plethora of quality systems available in other brands...I too would be quite disappointed to think I dropped that much coin on a mediocre sound system that I have to live with every day.
      mediocre sound

    @Konsfps 5 років тому +1

    The Ford Fusion sport handles like garbage. It also has one of the worst transmission. The accords ten speed is light years better. The only thing I can say is better in the fusion then the accord is that it’s awd and higher HP. Also the fusion sport is like $40k and up the accord maxes out at like $38k. Bad comparison but to be far there isn’t any cars out there offering so much for the value.

    Not crazy about turbos. As a retired auto mechanic I just see that as one more thing to go wrong. However, the 6-speed manual? Great! Otherwise known as a millennial anti-theft device! Does it still have the stupid CVT (continuously variable transmission) automatic? That technology has continuously failed to prove itself going back to the 1980s when Subaru introduced it.

    • @peaceofpi
      @peaceofpi 6 років тому

      The 1.5 has a CVT and the 2.0 has a 10-speed

      @recoveringnewyorker2243 6 років тому +1

      peaceofpi That's a good thing! 10 speeds! Wow! I remember when a 4 or 5 speed auto was cutting edge!

    • @robertb.4202
      @robertb.4202 6 років тому +1

      They did the turbo engines to boost (pardon the pun) fuel economy. Fortunately, many modern turbos seem to do pretty well for reliability. I have a Subaru Forester XT with nearly 73k miles and have no issues.
      I am definitely considering the new Accord...despite my dislike for FWD.

      Brayden Campbell He really isn't old man. There's lots of millennials that go for manuals in their first car because it's cheap. If you asked an elderly man like yourself to drive a manual, they wouldn't be able to.

  • @daviyen
    @daviyen 6 років тому +1

    Complains about the steering not once but twice. Doesn’t say anything about fuel economy numbers or how much space is in the trunk. But hey, what do you expect for a modern EPS. What the hell is EPS? What about CarPlay? Do all trim levels get a HUD? Does it come in various colors?

    • @1973TJM

I'll wait for the refresh when they at least fix those hideous taillights or perhaps aftermarket for something that doesn't make it look so buick or chevy in the ass.

      Oddly enough motortrend already did a comparison test between the the accord and the camry. They have similar performance that if you hesitate for a 1/10 th of a sec you'll lose. Just to prove that hp isn't everything the malibu with its 9 spd and 2.0t has almost the exact same straight line performance. While also having essentially the same skid pad time and avg. G's as the accord and camry.

    • @du-gu2mm
      @du-gu2mm 6 років тому

      Anthony Weeks very well said thanks for the info sir. the question now is the reliability I bet toyota and honda has no porblem with that, I dont know about chevy malibu. good thing accord did not use CVT tranny

    • @99-Zulu
      @99-Zulu 6 років тому +2

      du 30
      Last I checked the malibu had a higher predicted reliability rating than the honda accord by half a star, granted its not that big of a difference. But its down on the camry by a half star. But the accord and camry are new from the ground up. While the malibu has been out for a couple years. So it will be difficult to say if the accords reliability goes above the malibu. Beings its brand new and all.

    • @du-gu2mm
