subjective....I have the '17. I like it better. the all led jewel headlights, the bmw styled led tail lights, led foglights, 19" spoke rims, apple carplay, android auto, DRL's, remote start, push button start, auto unlock with hand touch, and many other options including interior. There's no way (in my opinion) the pre face lift looks better. the '13-'15 still has round halogen headlights, that look is so outdated already. the face lift version resembles more of the new age, with the jewel all led headlights and even the chrome front end as you see it featured on the '18 accord as well. (i happen to have the '18 accord as well). Anyway the rear end resembles closely to the 5 series beamer which is sick. the best part about the '17 is that you can get the blacked out sport grill and your main problem is solved. they also have tail lights available that are full led and makes the rear end look like a lexus ls 460. Either way '17 smashes '15 styling anyday....(in my opinion). p.s. my transmission is quick and efficient. not sure whats going on with the one you have.

The real problems I have with my 2017 Touring are: 1. The adaptive cruise control shuts off under 25mph, meanwhile 2016 Civics have adaptive cruise control WITH low speed follow. This is a critical missing feature on the Accord for those in urban areas where highway traffic is common. Having this feature the Civic will inch along with the car in front of you without driver input, whereas the Accord cannot. 2. The passenger seat has no height adjustability. So leg support is very poor for those on the passenger side. The driver’s seat has height adjustability as well as lumbar support.

Circling back to this video because I'm the recent owner of a 2016 V6 Touring. Definitely agree regarding the infotainment. But Honda/Acura has always struggled in this area. In terms of looks, these are subjective. However, the most prevalent sentiment is that this is one of the best designed versions to to date. (The 8th gen -- of which I was also an owner, 12 EX Sedan -- was the most bloated until the 11th gen came along and took that crown.) So, with respect to general style, chrome accents and lack of seating support, Honda really didnt intend this to be an type of sports sedan, though there is some sportiness injected into the setup. For that, one would probably need to look more at the TLX.

Yes radios have improved besides a radio is not as important in a car the way it use to be. The supposed hot and cold heated seat is inconsequential, no one critiques cars on the temp of the heated seats. Only luxury cars and this car is a very very good near luxury car. The looks are great. My 2016 is approaching a decade old, it looks great, contemporary, it garners attention from girls

I autocross mine and the transmission never seems to be in the wrong gear. I'll agree for driving on the road it's really bad. It probably should be called "track" mode. This car is a bit of sleeper though.. certainly not the fastest car on the track, but I get quite a few comments about how surprised they are with my times (so far I've been running stock setup plus high performance tires).
