Conclusion
I find it very difficult to find flaws in the Accord. It does what it was designed to do exceptionally well. This is a very honest car: there are no surprises and it will always take you where you want to go. The car is simple to operate, easy to live with, requires little maintenance and will re-sell easily and at a high price. To sum it up, the ideal ownership experience.
The Accord is every bit as dependable as a Camry and it holds a strong card in its deck: it is enjoyable to drive. One of the few major differences between these two is that Honda offers very little as far as incentives are concerned. To promote sales, Toyota and especially the North American manufacturers, will sway buyers into their showrooms with low and ultra-low interest rates and large cash rebates. Honda chooses to be very independent in this area. Nonetheless, it still attracts a good crowd that is willing to buy regardless.
Good stuff:
Reliability
Road manners
Fuel economy
Not so good stuff:
Lack of incentives
Drivability of the Coupe (6-speed V6)
