My FIRST car review! After years of considering and months of anxiety-inducing waffling on whether to make the leap or not, it's here! Please let me know what you think, and any positive criticiism is apprecaited! Specifically I'm going for an 'everyperson' view of a car. How it looks, is it comfortable, and does it motivate forward well.... Do y'all love that I don't get hung-up in the weeds of HP and torque and the stats or do you want to see more of it?

I put new refurbished wheels on, tinted the windows, put body moldings on the sides, and had the dealership put a winged spoiler on my trunk. I even have WeatherTech mats in my car and I got the accord mat at the dealer for my trunk! Once I pay off my car, I’m gonna hang onto it for dear life until I can’t drive it.

Great video. Fellow 2014 owner here. I love this car so much I'm going to keep as long as I can because I just don't think newer cars will give as good reliability and value. I agree road noise is loud in this car- I just put Michelin Pilot Sports from Costco on, never heard things so quiet. Give them a try! You covered the starter well, that is an absolute weak spot of this model but not a difficult fix. In the same category with this car is the cam chain tensioner (rattle noise on cold start) and ABS module failure (multiple warning lights on dash).

I've been frustratingly chasing getting the pressures in all 4 tires to match literally for weeks after having a patch put on. I had NO IDEA there was a magic button I could press to recalibrate. None. No clue. Apparently it's been pressed before during tire patches and wasn't this time, and i had no idea it didn't reset when the pressures were correct. You're a God-send today.

Happy New Year! And a great first review! Prior to my 2020 Accord, I owned a 2013 Sport in Crystal Black pearl with the 6-speed manual. I absolutely loved the looks..classy describes it perfectly. I actually preferred the height of this old model…the newer model is much lower which makes entry and exit a little more difficult. And I miss the feel of the naturally aspirated 2.4L engine. These have a great ride and handling….felt almost like a budget sports sedan. I traded mine to get more of the safety and infotainment features. As much as I enjoy the ‘20, there was something special about this generation and a big part of me misses it.

Love the way it looks and drives. I immediately bought a very low mile 2017 Coupe V6 while the '12 had the engine replaced. The 2017 is my 7th Honda in 30 years. Sadly, it's probably my last. I decided that Lexus is now "my speed". I decided that I want a much quieter, more plush ride and the ES350 suits me. I still have a muscle car and a sports car so, if I feel the need for speed, I have it. You did very very well! It's efficient smooth, and handles well.

Great first review. We are on our third Accord., the fourth if you count the 1998 Acura 3.0CL I leased for three years. 2003 Accord LX Sedan, turned in with around 225,000 miles for a 2017 CR-V AWD Touring 2010 Accord LX-P Sedan, turned in with around 215,000 miles for a 2021 Accord 2.0T Sport Sedan 2021 Accord 2.0T Sport which is my current daily driver, wife drives the CR-V The 21 (so far) is probably the 2nd best car I have ever owned. The 98 CL is absolutely the best car I have owned /leased and I probably should have kept that Instead of turning it in. Turned it in and leased a 2001 E46 BMW 330xi which will be probably go down as the 3rd best car I have had. Don’t get me wrong, the BMW was a fun car to drive and definitely makes a statement when you arrive in one but reliability was no near the regular Accords let alone the CL. Like you, all of our 4-cylinder Accords have gotten around 29 MPG in combined city / highway driving with mid 30s in pure highway travel The V6 powered CL was probably mid 20s combined and low 30s in pure highway travel.

I own the 2014 v6 coupe version of this car. It is hands down the best car I have ever owned, and it is my 6th car. The car is simply anything you want it to be. It is a daily driver with its excellent economy, a sports car with its 280 hp, and a cruiser with it's sunroof, comfy leather seats and infotainment. To modernize the car, I installed an alpine after market stereo with a touch screen for the Apple Carplay feature. This makes it feel like an absolutely modern with no 2023 model having anything on it. I considered a trade in for a fancy new EV, but I just love the car too much to give it up even for the latest craze. I have had some issues with the starter, but it is an easy replacement and not expensive fix. That is the only problem I've had. The car has retained it's value really well, and is sought after in the used car market today.

My sister and I both drive 9th gen Accords. Her's is a silver 2014 and mine is a white 2013. They also both happen to be the LX CVT just like yours! They have both held up exceptionally well over the years and are very reliable and enjoyable to drive. I really think Honda nailed it with this generation Accord! P.S. You mentioned you're not sure what the Econ button does. I am currently alternating between Econ on and Econ off to test Econ out. In my experience, Econ dulls the throttle response (just a little, not by much) and makes the car feel a little more sluggish. Also, as you mentioned, it weakens the A/C fan speed. As far as MPG, so far I am noticing little to no increase in fuel economy with Econ on vs. Econ off. Just my 2 cents and your experience may be different. Thank you for the review!

We had a 7th generation and the 8th and 9th seemed to bring lower quality plastics and to have lost the vault like feel inside and in its place came more road noise. Still great cars but just didn’t live up to our expectation of that 7th generation.

I love the aesthetics and it just looks clean to me. Hands down better-looking than the next generation one IMHO. But, I won't pay what is generally the asking price for one of these bad boys these days.

I'm thinking about getting one.. I think they are really cool looking,and all the research I've been doing most concur with you. Curious, Do you still own this car? and if not, would you still recommend?
@AllCarswithJonАй бұрын
I absolutely still own this car! And I still feel as strongly (if not more-so) that it's possibly the best used car you can buy. My complaints are really nick-picky. Depending on what you're wanting in a car, drive one first of course. Truly I love it 99%, but once in a while I wish it was quieter. Just a touch quieter. Other than that, it's been great. Good luck with your search!

google 2013 Accord Sport and Car and Driver to get the review published OCT 18, 2012 - the Accord Sport model w/ dual exhausts and 6sp manual is the one to get w/ more horsepower and torque - 0-60 in 6.6 and better hwy mileage than the cvt - problem is that the 6sp is rare and demand makes it more expensive but it's a Honda manual so it will perform and last forever

Ford has discontinued the Fusion as they've given up on sedans, which I think is a mistake. The American brands are focused on SUVs and Trucks, so they've discontinued smaller cars and sedans

I did a google search and found a couple of videos on it. Oddly it doesn't seem to always show up on an OBD scanner. one guy had to replace a couple of sensors. Another the dealership couldn't figure it out and he traded it in. :(
@blessup7055 ай бұрын
@AllCarswithJon hmm the question is I had that problem for 5 months and the car runs fine with that problem I just hope doesn't break down on me on the highway or anything real skeptical about the dealership they be charging an arm and a leg for something minor I'm hoping it is!

I agree. I struggled on how to describe my admittedly biased opinion of the looks. I settled on 'classy but not classic', but even then I think the styling has aged very well.

Because you fail to mention the mechanical and electrical issues, particularly in the starting system of this generation, I consider you have not done a thorough review, at all.

Great review! I agree with @suzaku3573 below, If you didn't mention that this was your first review, folks would not have noticed. You did a great job! I currently have a 2017 Honda Accord V6 Touring, which I really love. I wanted to get the last V6 Honda Accord model available, "no regrets". When it was time to purchase a car for my youngest son, I had two main concerns: 1) safety and 2) reliability, so I gave him a choice between a Toyota Camry and a Honda Accord, (both great vehicles). He chose the Honda Accord, 2013 LX model. I was very impressed with the 2013 Accord, it does everything well, safety, reliability, ride quality, comfort, features etc. no issues at all. As you mentioned, most folks would never know that the car has a CVT transmission if they were not told. I found no issues at all. The transmission in the 2013 Accord 4 cylinder works smoothly and flawlessly in my experience. Of course it's not a sports car, but the handling and performance does give it a bit of a sporty feel. I look forward to many years of good performance and would recommend the 9th generation Honda Accord to anyone looking for a reliable used vehicle. Take care! 👍🏼

Thanks for the kind words and for the visit. As for your son - good for him to choose the Accord!
