2006 Honda Accord EX Coupe review from North America

Nothing So far, only had it for 1 month.

I traded my 2006 Honda Civic Ex Sedan, 1.8 5 Speed manual because I just couldn't stand it!! it was too slow and had no response what so ever. Only had that car for 4 months. Any how, I broke almost even in the trade, for only $1,000 more I got a 2006 Honda Accord Ex Coupe 5 speed manual with leather, and all... I must say comparing the civic and the accord are like comparing 2 cars from 2 different manufacturers. I think Honda's newer generations here and to come are not as well built as the old... the 2008 Accord coming out looks like a bigger civic... yuck... But to the point I am very happy with the car, gas mileage is awesome, the clutch and transmission are smooth (unlike the civic) car handles well on the highway and is 10 times quieter and smoother than the civic, Seats are very comfortable, I feel like I'm driving a car that is almost high end compared to the civic, I just really have no complaints about this car, and really I complain about everything!! Great Car, Great price!!

If your thinking about the buying a civic, I recommend you price out an Accord first, the 2007 / 06 Accord's are far better than the civic and you might be surprised in the price. Also dealers are discounting accords a lot more. Not so sure I like the 2008 model to come, I anticipate it will have the same issues as the new civic, only time will tell.
