It looks great! Thanks for sharing the link so I could see how it turned out. Your car is so fancy with all the upgrades, mine is so basic! Ha! Glad my video helped you in making a tint decision. Enjoy your car!
You can also set it so that all of those individual functions like radio and gas mileage will show up in the middle of the tachometer . There's an option in the menus that locks in the tachometer so it won't go away, but the information will show up in the middle of the tachometer
I'm just a casual driver and not a sports car racer or anything lol, but I'd say it's pretty smooth and responsive. No worries about the "rubber band effect" with the 2.0. I've never driven the 1.5 so can't say what the difference is like. I just know the 2.0 drives great. The only time I see a slight delay is when I'm parked and put it in reverse.
How is passing on the highway? I have a 05 camry v6 se 3.3l that is very quick at passing. Obviously this is quicker and I am planning on getting this car next September I'm just curious how it feels for fun factor and at highway speeds.. I also I have a heavy foot when I drive so I'm hoping this is fast. Nice video btw.
thanks! It's definitely fun to drive and do things like speeding onto the highway, passing people or accelerating through curves. You can easily pass people on the highway in a few seconds. Often when I pass people it feels like they are not even moving. It drives really smooth too, so you'll often find yourself going like 90 and not even realize it. lol It feels pretty powerful driving it. When you push down the throttle it will lunge forward and cause you to go back into your seat lol I am definitely glad I decided to get this one instead of the 1.5. I haven't test drove that one but I think that one just wouldn't have been the same experience.
@@dr_bodling thanks for the response! I'm glad it's good at passing because where I live people love to go under the speed limit even in the left lane haha. I figured it would pull you back the tourqe is decently high and I'm sure you feel it at low rpms too. I was thinking of doing the hondata stage 2 depending on if I feel like I want more after a few months. The 1.5 t is a snooze fest when I tested it lol I suppose you could modify the 1.5t with a k tuner or hondata but I think the 2.0t is the better choice overall And unfortunately they didnt have a 2.0t to test drive.
@@TeamMastaBlasters yeah around here people do the same! lol I agree, definitely the better choice overall. hopefully you'll get to test drive it sometime. I've definitely had fun driving it this last month. The other day I went onto the highway ramp and passed like 4 cars in a couple seconds. it was awesome lol
I’m going to be trading in my 2014 Nissan Maxima for this model. How’s the acceleration with this? Would you say this a pretty quick and fun car to drive? Compared to what you’ve had in the past?
As far as acceleration goes, let's just say whenever I'm trying to pass people it feels like they are not even moving LOL This thing is much more fun to drive than the 09 civic I used to drive, although a lot of things are more fun than driving an 09 civic lol. I really like the blind spot monitoring system. It's one of those things where you don't really know you need it until you have it.
it's a little bigger than most cars but with the blind spot/rear cross traffic monitoring system, you don't really notice it much. Also, if you keep it in econ mode it's not all that fast so I think it'd be doable for a first timer.
Looks great 👍 planning to purchase one closer to the end of year for better discounts hopefully. I’m trying to be $25k-$25.7 out the door price. If you don’t mind me asking how much was yours ??
Mine was $28.2k + TTL + $199 tint + $250 dealer fee. I was happy with that since it was $411 below the invoice price and according to truecars.com, was the TruePrice average price for my region (which I highly recommend using by the way, it is free). $25k-$25.7 would be awesome though. Good luck!
Andrew Bodling - Thanks for letting me know the price you paid. I have used TrueCar before and was great. Another discount I use is USAA which saves another $500-2k depending on the dealership. Hopefully by December the 2019 Accords are out so I can get a better deal. I’m trying to stick to my price point of $25-26k out the door price hopefully that can happen, will keep you posted.
Andrew Bodling-Yes USAA does discounts but each dealership gives you a different amount between $500-2k sometimes more just depends. I just say I am a USAA member and they always give me a different number other than the MSRP to start with. If you can use USAA for insurance they offer the BEST RATES and awesome service.
Should have got 5% on the front two, double 5% on the back 3, and 20% on the windshield. now that would have been nice with the white exterior !@@dr_bodling
The tint is the same on the front door windows as the rear door windows. The rear door windows look a little darker because the rear windshield is 20% instead of 33%. Since most of the light comes in from the rear windshield, having a darker rear windshield makes the rear door window look a little darker than the front.
@@dr_bodling One more question: does the tint help against getting blinded by cars behind you at night? like does it tone down reflections from door mirrors?
Fordham Donnington Yes, I have the 2018 Accord Sport 2.0T in Still Night Pearl. I’m getting my Winter Wheels and Tires from Tire Rack...17’s are the minimum diameter for Aftermarket Wheels
@@changeisnow2009 Yeah it is. I think limos have like 5% tint. I think if you get 20% or lower on the driver window, you'll have a good risk of getting a ticket, so I just got 32% on all my sides.
@@RamoneBryan I was thinking about black as well but I think that would only look good if you got a very dark tint, which I didn't want to risk getting a ticket for
Base price 28.2 for the 2.0t??? At my dealer the base price for the 2.0t is 31k!!!! I'm going back in this next week to see if I get a good deal on a blue 2.0t. I'll let you guys know.
yeah that's the MSRP price that all dealers give, which is much more than the dealers invoice price of 28.6k. They also get a rebate (called Holdback) from the manufacturer for about $600, making their true cost $28k. Therefore I'd start your negotiation at around 27k and work your way up. Definitely don't go with them if they insist that outrageous 31k price LOL if you haven't already, definitely check out TrueCar.com. That will give you info for what others are paying for the same car in your area and will give your info to dealers so that they all call you, which will give you more leverage.
I have the same car. Love it. Done some small mods to mine. Now I really love it. Lol. Enjoy the car.
just got the same in a 2020. Thursday the windows get tinted. luv it so far
Nice. How much did you pay for bro?
Looks clean with the tinted windows. Very nice!! I’d get the manual.
thanks! I'd get the manual too but I'm too lazy haha
That my future car
Nice bro
So did you buy your future car bro?
i got mine lol same exact one
It looks great! Thanks for sharing the link so I could see how it turned out. Your car is so fancy with all the upgrades, mine is so basic! Ha! Glad my video helped you in making a tint decision. Enjoy your car!

I bet you have driven a good amount of miles , what do you think about the transmission. Any delays ? Coz I kinda debating between 1.5 and 2.0

Hey do you think this car is too fast and big for a first time driver
it's a little bigger than most cars but with the blind spot/rear cross traffic monitoring system, you don't really notice it much. Also, if you keep it in econ mode it's not all that fast so I think it'd be doable for a first timer.
I found one used same one but in black for $23,699 with 23,799 miles definitely going to pick it up
Nice. Sounds like a good deal to me.
Can I ask you what kind of gas do you use with your Accord
just regular 87
Always use premium gas bro

by the way, let me know how low you are able to get it when you buy it at the end of the year. This will be good to know for when I buy my next car.

I may have to get my windows tinted. They look awesome
you definitely got to! really changes the whole look of the car, and only cost maybe $200 or so at the most
Why people get window tinted? please explain sir
Nice and the tints looks great 👍
thanks!
Should have got 5% on the front two, double 5% on the back 3, and 20% on the windshield. now that would have been nice with the white exterior !@@dr_bodling
I mean sure, if I feel like getting pulled over like 5 times a week lol @@RussianChode
How dark is the window tint 20%
This was in the description. Hopefully you saw it eventually..lol
We need this in Europe Honda!
yes you do. :)
Is it the same tint grade on the front door windows as on the rear door windows? it looks a little darker in the rear
The tint is the same on the front door windows as the rear door windows. The rear door windows look a little darker because the rear windshield is 20% instead of 33%. Since most of the light comes in from the rear windshield, having a darker rear windshield makes the rear door window look a little darker than the front.
@@dr_bodling Thanks for sharing! Looks great!
@@dr_bodling One more question: does the tint help against getting blinded by cars behind you at night? like does it tone down reflections from door mirrors?
@@sveddish doesn't really tone it down much, although my rear windshield (20% tint) is noticeably darker (I can only see the headlights at night.)
How much did you pay for it
Does anyone know if you can use regular wheels in winter to protect those amazing rims?
Fordham Donnington
Yes, I have the 2018 Accord Sport 2.0T in Still Night Pearl. I’m getting my Winter Wheels and Tires from Tire Rack...17’s are the minimum diameter for Aftermarket Wheels
Does it have a built in garage door opener? Leather?
No garage door opener. It has some leather but not fully leather.
Thanks for responding. I'm either going to buy the 2.0 Sport or the 2.0 EX-L@@dr_bodling
I ordered a 2.0 EX-L in Obsidian Blue yesterday.
nice. I love the sport with the black interior but that's cool too.@@ParkinsonProduction
Is the insurance on these expensive???
At USAA, my 6 month premium is only $30 more with this car than with my 09 civic.
Do you still have your accord 2.0?
yup!
@@dr_bodling awesome!!👍🏾
Not anymore though. Totaled it :|
@@dr_bodling sorry about that bro.
Nice ride bro
Kids dropped off back to sport mode 💀🤣😂 FACTS
Niceee...i like tha shifter its press button for P,R,N,D rite wow...
yeahh I thought that was strange at first but after using it some, I really like it
@@dr_bodling but does it work pretty fast or slow when u press those button for park,drive n reverse haha..
Protect those wheels they steal them!
Luckily no one has stolen mine yet lol
who steal them?
Funny coming back to this comment cause someone eventually did steal mine! :(
What % tint is this??
I did 33% tint on the sides and 20% on the back windshield.
Andrew Bodling ok thank u. It looks great
Is 25% darker than 33 %? I don’t know much about tint..?
@@changeisnow2009 no problem! I'm glad you like it. I know I sure do. It really makes the car look a whole lot better.
@@changeisnow2009 Yeah it is. I think limos have like 5% tint. I think if you get 20% or lower on the driver window, you'll have a good risk of getting a ticket, so I just got 32% on all my sides.
I have the same apartment key as yours.
oh good attention to detail. didn't even notice that was in the video lol
@@dr_bodling lol. Just pick up my 2019 accord sport today.
Why does everyone get white with this car 🤔
In my opinion the white or grey looks the best on this model. what would/did you get?
I want to get this in white or blue...white shows all the exterior features better
Andrew Bodling I wanna get full black...I’m getting mine soon like a gift to my self lol, I’m gonna get the sport so I get that dark chrome
serg74ful I want just all black lol 😂
@@RamoneBryan I was thinking about black as well but I think that would only look good if you got a very dark tint, which I didn't want to risk getting a ticket for
I dont like that white needs more shyne
Those new accord looks nice but i gotta say I hate tha front looks it looks ugly mostly from side view
eh it's not the best looking car, but I'd say it's relatively sexy for being a mid-size sedan
@@dr_bodling everything is good looking but just tha front looks haha..
What are you talking about? The front looks hella nice.
How much was your car
Base price was 28.2k. After the dealer fee, tint and TTL, it was $30.8k
Base price 28.2 for the 2.0t??? At my dealer the base price for the 2.0t is 31k!!!! I'm going back in this next week to see if I get a good deal on a blue 2.0t. I'll let you guys know.
yeah that's the MSRP price that all dealers give, which is much more than the dealers invoice price of 28.6k. They also get a rebate (called Holdback) from the manufacturer for about $600, making their true cost $28k. Therefore I'd start your negotiation at around 27k and work your way up.

@@bryangomez1384 he lying those are around 31k 2.0t just alone. 1.5 are 27k
LOL!!! Your probably right, but I ended up buying a Lincoln MKZ instead since Honda was playing around with me lol
