    I test drove the Camry SE with the 2.5, and the Accord sport with the 1.5T, accord drove so much better, more torque in the lower rpm range, rear view camera is better, the guide actually turns when you’re reversing, also no foot brake like the Camry, the accord also has more interior room, the decision was easy. The XSE Camry is the only one I would even consider, they don’t come well equipped in the lower trim levels, you get more in just the sport trim with the Accord, let alone with the touring. You also get the option of a manual, how cool is that? Honda is doing it right, no complaints.

    I understand why some people are against the styling of the new Accord (I actually think it's beautiful and very unique though), but the fact that Honda is still willing to offer a mid-size family sedan with a manual transmission paired to the top engine choice is pretty phenomenal. There was actually a point when Toyota did the same thing. I drive a 98 Accord V6 and it was only offered with a 4 speed automatic, while you could actually get a 1998 Toyota Camry V6 with a 5 speed manual. To make a long story short, both Honda and Toyota are great in their own respects. They both have proven themselves in terms of reliability (whether you believe one is more reliable than the other is a personal opinion), so it's nice to see both companies taking risks. This generation Accord with the 2.0T-6 Speed combination will definitely be my next car though.

Just my thoughts

    This Honda looks really good. I love the front end and the wheels. I think they really missed the mark when it comes too the interior. They cut so many corners. I really despise the part leather seats, no power passenger seat, more hard plastic, and no usb outlets in the back. My biggest gripe would be the faux exhaust tips... Car manufacturers need to stop this. But it looks so good and the HP is great. Not like the type R but I think Honda was going for a family sedan with some nice power and manual transmission.

I work at a Honda in Orlando and the 2.0t Sports have been gone since last year, I was so excited about the manual 2.0t that I was saving my $$$ for a white one, then I drove it and blah, my 10th gen civic SI with ktuner felt faster by a lot, the car was on my lot for over 150 days and finally traded out to another dealership it had 103 miles when left the lot that’s how many people test drove it but didn’t pull the trigger, btw we landed an used mk7 GTI DSG on the lot and drove it for the hell of it and was so impressed that It’s currently on my garage(sorry Honda) felt the way I was hoping the Accord 2.0t did. Btw the 10at it’s much faster, smoother, has a boost gauge and the sensing features are usable, no wonder it still on the lot.

I have to agree that a cup holder-cover would have been nice as well as a panoramic sunroof, all leather seats & authentic exhaust pipes were all overlooked by Honda that you accurately pointed out. I like the silver & black wheels instead of all black to give it contrast which adds a bit of style & class. Great job my brotha!!

      What do you drive now? Civics are reliable but that’s about it. New ones are uncomfortable and lack a lot of features. Honestly just buy a 2005 or so for a couple grand.

    Accord and Camry both are bang for buck and what to buy is more a matter of preference...although prev gen camry used to offer more cabin room and better fuel economy.

      @@RaitisRides I don't like that reason. We humans need to learn how to drive stick! We need to learn how to match revs! Also, don't rob us of the satisfaction when you match them perfectly. That rev hang is truly annoying. I'm going to have to zonk it for that reason alone! Also, next time you sit in the back of a new Accord, try closing the door and putting your arm on the rear door arm rest. I don't have big arms, but mine kept falling off of the much too narrow arm rest. I haven't heard any review catch it yet, but I feel it's an important feature, if you're a passenger in the back. I'm gonna zonk it for that, as well. But not as big of a zonk as the rev hang one. Otherwise, I pretty much dig this Honda, for the most part, although I do miss the classic, naturally aspirated engine. And that's my two cents worth.

But what the new Honda develop 10-speed automatic the automatic is faster for the first time over the manual almost buy a second is there. 0 to 60 in the automatic is 5.5 the manual 6.4
