Best first car!,

"For my 16th birthday, my parents bought me my dream car- a silver 2008 Honda Accord LX-P. I'd been wanting this car ever since I'd seen it on the road. The moment they let me take the bow off the windshield and drive it, my life changed. I've had it for almost 4 months and I'm still just as crazy about it as I was the day I got it. My Accord gets almost 36 miles to the gallon and I drive it every day. The interior is just as spacious as my dad's 2006 Honda Pilot, but of course it's a lot more luxurious. The sound system is amazing and the auxilary jack is perfect to to play my iPhone out loud. All I had to do was buy a $3 cord from Wal-Mart and I've got an instant iHome for my car. The brakes on this car are stellar. They stop on a dime, perfect for the student parking lot at my school where other people drive their cars like they're drag racing. This car also accelerates rapidly, without sucking gas. Right now, i pay $20 every 1-2 weeks, perfect for a teenager who isn't allowed to have a job. This car also has the front end of a BMW and the rear end of a Mercedes-Benz or Jaguar. My friends with BMW's are actually jealous. Parents, this car is perfect for a teenager. Teens, this car is awesome. The only thing that I would change about it is, because I have the 4 door Sedan, it doesn't look quite as sporty as the Coupe. I wanted the 4 doors for convenience, but with that I sacrificed the sleeker model. Otherwise, the PERFECT car. I would recommend this Honda Accord to anyone who is on a budget but wants curb appeal. This car will defintiely last me throughout high school and my first 4 years of college (I'll probably trade in for a 2015 Honda Accord before finishing my last 4 years). No need for an expensive sports car when you can get this car. Definitely worth your money."

My Honda Accord,

"After had a Volvo I though will be harder for me to find a car as good as that one, because of the price I was too excited to try this Honda, and I loved, my kids do also. Have a lot a room: the trunk the seats, the doors. I like everything, I am very happy with my choice, and I was expecting it was going to be boring to wait for the transaction to finalize, but it was so easy, I will be using this method in the future."

Great Value,

"I purchased a 2008 Honda Accord LX-P during the summer and love the car. Everything just works in sync, the 4-cylinder engine provides great power from the small 2.4L, and the 5-speed transmission always knows what gear to be in. Awesome standard features that came with the car; like a ton of air bags, traction control. Even the LX-P package provided comfortable features like the power driver's seat, and upgraded CD/MP3 player. For a car of this size, which appears to have an amazingly big interior, none of my passengers have ever complained about rear seat space, yet it still handles so well in tight situations like parking lots. Although the car is fantastic, there are some downfalls. I drove it from Kansas to Memphis, TN, and noticed after a couple hours of driving that the seat becomes terribly uncomfortable. Also, the trunk layout is not entirely flat, and some of the luggage can dent in the side humps. Otherwize, the car is awesome, I got a great deal with the lower finance rates, and with the car already having 9,000 miles in 5 months, it speaks for its self that I love to drive it. It looks like a BMW for half the price, and in my opinion, it drives a lot better than most of its competitors that I have test driven; i.e., Nissan Altima, Toyota Camry."
