2010 Honda Accord - 2010 10Best Cars - Car and Driver

[ijl05]

Honda Accord in my opinion remain one of the most reliable car on the road. As the completion with the family sedans in the tough crowd, honda accord remain very reliable. Both 4-cyl and V6 engine are still more refined and fuel efficient than most of the companies. Even though that Hyundai Sonata, Kia Optima, and Chevy Malibu are impressive on their own, the accord is still a standout.

[Quy4life]

this car looks very sportive. I feel proud when i'm the car. hehe

[stripemister]

I have a 2009 Accord Sedan EX-L V-6 W/Nav. It's pure luxury. It's top shelf over Toyota, and other MFG

[nickmorganmusic]

the new accord coupe is the first accord coupe that deserves to be the successor or the prelude.

[d0ugz24]

i love how fully loaded this car is still well priced and surprisingly affordable! sweet!

[princeclover20]

I am getting the 2010 Honda accord this February, for my schooling oh my God am so excited, I LOVE THIS CAR, I LOVE THIS CAR, I LOVE IT.

[bestworldever07]

I love my Accord sedan

I have the same color

best car ever !!

[tmatzko]

I was gonna buy one after driving my cousins 03 accord coupe but realized the current one needs better sound insulation, handling and less heavy feel.

[deeeznuts00]

HONDUH.

[AccordGTR]

I'm keeping my 2000 Accord forever. I seam-welded the body, installed a Type R seats, Japan-spec Accord-R H22 engine, coil-over suspension and 320mm 6-pot front brakes. I love it. I think the 2008 is ugly. The 2009 model looks much, much better, elegant, regal and sporty but it's about 250 lbs heavier than the 2000-model. Still, a better choice than a Camry or a more expensive Eurocar model, IMO.

[boardoutmind]

I think I got the dud Honda out of the bunch. Had less then 1 mile when I drove it off the lot. My 2010 Honda accord uses oil from day one. Little over 12,000 miles on it and still uses around a half quart between changes. The brakes squeak and are noisy. Would have went with a Ford or Chevrolet vehicle knowing this.

[tom11zz884]

Accord is not the best family sedan out there..it is the most overrated family sedan out there for sure.

[accordguy0325]

@tom11zz884

Own a couple and then you'll understand. I've had three with a very probable fourth in my future.

[STRATO05]

I love mine!

[CyberGTX09]

I'll take the accord V6 over the camry v6....

love honda.

[OfficialMixture]

Honda's are awesome cars because there so dam reliable. It must be a great feeling owning such a reliable car. Wish I could afford one myself. Would be a honour to watch my children grow up while still owning the same car. Imagine all the family holidays and fun times you could have. And when the other cars of the same age are in the scrapyard in the sky your still have your trusty old Honda. and all your old memories.

[1952kid]

i got a 2010 with the 4 cyl . This car is a true family car . It just does what its made to do , get from a to b ,without calling attention to it self . And its a big car !  25 TO 30 MPG.

[daebob]

just look at t this car = how boring lol

[k3270]

best car in the world

[TheMrkdog]

im gettin one

[azntigerpimp4]

@TheMrkdog If you planing on gettin the sedan, get the 2010 one not the 2011!!

the 2011 saves better gas but the bak is blehhh to me... I like my accord right now very niceeee :D

[jibailublabla]

Honda Accord 2.0 with 156hp and maximum torque of 189Nm at 4300rpm costs around RM145k in price range; it has the biggest body and most sophisticated suspension of the three. Although it’s bigger, heavier and least powerful than Sonata, it has a better fuel consumption and not as slow as Sonata in acceleration due to its SOHC engine together with a 5 speed auto transmission.

[MaddDogg81]

The coupe looks good

[Miike92]

HONDA!, stop making cars for families and old people just b/c it sells. Go back to your performance based cars and bring back your sport enthusiasm!

[shub50]

Honda accord is one of the most brilliant cars designed. It's power is good for a v6 and 4 cylinder. It's interior has great comfort not to mention it's size. Not only that its only 21,000 which is a great deal. You guys say its a boring car well sorry were not fucking rollin in lamborghini's i mean really who gives a shit of what you think. So say all the bull shit you want, it just wont affect us.

[BlazinChikn23]

@shub50

I couldn't agree more. :D

[neoconsnightmare3]

@shub50 TOUCHE'!

i'm thinking many of the guys that call this car 'boring' fall into the 'can't afford it, player hating' category.

[KeepingModern]

@shub50 Geeks know what other geeks have done well. If you are a car geek, Honda has to be on your radar, they have impeccable build quality that always makes me sit in them in the showroom.

[jeanqbxx]

I don't know if the Accord is boring or not, but what I am sure about is that I will never buy an American car, they are all a piece of shit.

[globalk100]

HONDA is going downhill all there cars are so damm UGLY just like toyota .

[neoconsnightmare3]

@globalk100 not one shred of logical or objective evidence that 'honda is going downhill'. if you feel the design is 'ugly', that's your right. for every one person that thinks honda accords and toyota camrys are 'ugly', there are PLENTY who'll disagree with you.

that's why they're perenially top selling family cars.

and since when is a four door, family car supposed to be a damned 500 horsepower exotic car?

[MsTommyknocker]

Is the Civic better than the Accord?

[panoa]

@MsTommyknocker if you're into manual cars then yes, the Civc Si is better than all the honda cars except for the S2000

[neoconsnightmare3]

@MsTommyknocker it depends on what you're looking for. if you're looking for better gas mileage and a less expensive car, then the civic is better.

if one is a 6'3 man like me, and likes all the things that go along with a midsized/larger car, and they want more power, then the accord is better.

[MaddDogg81]

I have a turbo RSX. Now that is a fun car

[Spaznet24]

2011 Accord: Crap

2011 Odyssey: Crap

Honda: Crap

i hate honda soooooooo much now

[neoconsnightmare3]

@Spaznet24 how do you define 'crap'? if it's quality, then the honda accord is always at or near the top.

odyssey? a van? all vans are 'crap'. LOL

now, it's your right to feel honda is crap, and your right to 'hate' honda (though why would you 'hate' a car manufacturer'?)

in the end, honda will roll right alone just fine, because people BUY their cars.

[scoopmaster69]

@neoconsnightmare3

hey dude right on

thats why onda is the number 1 manufacturer of engines in the world

i got the 2010 accord sedan and the interior is all leather and the sound system is off the charts

id give it 4 out of 5 stars on a price to quality scale

[neoconsnightmare3]

@scoopmaster69 i know. my car is metallic silver and gets stares. this past weekend, one guy asked me, from across the street, what year my car was. that car is SLEEK!

honda builds what people want; toyota builds what people want. this is why they're at the top.

[payams100]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaawn!

[ambassador028]

this is a great car. 

[HolyL8T]

I'll Take It ! I may never need another car again PERIOD. I'm 59 yrs old, and retired.

[Headshot426]

Here are the vehicles with the fewest problems, in order of ranking, according to the J.D. Power and Associates Vehicle Dependability Study. All vehicles are 2007 models. 1. ...Cadillac DTS 2. ...Mercury Montego 3. ...Buick LaCrosse 4. ...Lexus LS 460 5. ...Buick Lucerne 6. ...Ford Five Hundred 7. ...Mercury Milan 8. ...Lincoln MKZ 9. ...Lexus GX 470 10. ...Audi A6 11. ...Honda Accord 12. ...Toyota Prius

[Jolopero]

@Headshot426

LMAO what a joke. Honda, Toyota best cars there are... Americans make recylcle garbage cars.. Cadillac?? Please... Mercury LMAO, Buick ROFL!!

[Jolopero]

@Headshot426

KIA? BUICK , MERCURY , FORD , ROFL!! What a dumb ass. Educate your self about cars first then come talk to me. I work for a Rapairshop and the cars with the most fucking problems are American cars. You will never see an american car making it more than 220k miles... I seen Honda with 400K plus miles and still running like... Dont compare American shit tech with Japanese Quality. Just because you are proud to be American doesnt mean you have to be blind fool.

[Jolopero]

@Headshot426

The J.D. Power is a fucking joke it makes American crappy cars look better... There is no other country in the world when in comes to quality in manufacturing cars like Japan. The Quality standard in Japan is years ahead and beyond what we got here in the US. You are just a little blind Mr America piece of shit red neck. Stick with your little plastic cars.. I am driving my Japanese cars. Enough wasting my time with a hill billy like you.

[Headshot426]

@Jolopero You're a total fucking idiot. The typical uneducated fanboy. Funny how if you like domestics you're a hillbilly. Classic. Rather be a hillbilly than a metrosexual.

[Stajerc55]

this is not honda accord

[uno6314]

i own a honda EXL V6 w/nav and its a great car. Only a monkey would get confused using the "center stack".

[zammychaos5]

would you people shut up

[carnivore74]

boring, shit car. PERIOD!

[Damnyou88]

This is just a peace of JUNK !!

$ 24000 for nothing !!!

No Keyless entry, no sensors, no blind spot monitor, no good look and you feel u r in airplane with too much buttons !!

It is Just a big shit !!

Mazda 6 is way way better !

[raykrislianggi]

@Damnyou88 Mazda 6 is just for rather younger people, it's no big deal. Ur lucky that you can get accord with $24000. In my country, Honda Accord 2.4 liter is fucking US$51000, Honda Accord 3.5 liter V6 is US$72000. But A lot of people buy it because it looks like a businessman own that car.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@Damnyou88 why would one need a 'blind spot monitor' on this car? it's not huge, and there IS such a thing as MIRRORS. LOL. c'mon, man, that's for a larger car and people who like technology even when it's not needed.

mazda 6 is a nice car, but i test drove a few, and the quality isn't QUITE there. the steering wheel is also too thin. great acceleration, but compared to a honda accord or toyota camry (6 cyl only) there's no comparison.

and nobody says honda is a 'piece' of junk. LOL

[afa7777yes]

gonna buy the two door one ,, (=

[nick2582]

HONDA CARS AR E BETTER . Deal with it <33 Kayy kayy ?

[general819]

sonata 2011 is the best

[FB1801]

the Sonata might look better but you can't trust that shit.

[akmasama]

lol

[althegreat17]

i love that 2 door version! gotta have one! lol

[carnivore74]

ugly and total shit compared to 2011 sonata!

[coandcaiv]

@carnivore74 total shit?...you are an idiot dude....beyond and idiot

[neoconsnightmare3]

@carnivore74 really, carnivor. 'total shit compared to 2011 sonata'? based on what? the fact the sonata doesnt even offer a 6 cylinder engine anymore? what objective measure do you have outside the fact you likely can't afford either car?

[carnivore74]

lol, the sonata offers four bangers that put out 200 HP! and later this year a turbo.

ktxbyE!!!

[neoconsnightmare3]

@carnivore74 and carnivore, i think that's pretty cool. the turbo (which would HAVE to kick out more than that) will be nice.

but accord has a v-6 that kicks out 271 hp, and four cylinder that kicks out 190 hp.

IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, sonata should have done what subaru did...offer a four, a turbo four and a six. pretty much cover all bases.

[jvrdlc]

dis car is amazin, luv the accord..

[lanlug]

check new 1011 sonata and than you'll see which car is better ))))

[86bmw325i]

Ummm, are they on crack? This Honda is an excellent car, don't get me wrong. It's just that it has alot of road noise. If they learned how to subdue road noise, then I would totally buy one. I wish you could combine the Toyota camry's quietness with the accord's everything else

[2fast4all]

I had to dynamat the trunk just to kill highway noise in my 01 accord LX.....

[krunkindian1]

It should be called the Hoyota!

[DeadofWinter321]

I wouldn't choose a Fusion/Malibu over this. It's better to go with the Accord so you don't get screwed over as the years pass on the car.

[bkck187i]

honda is garbage its aimed for lames acura is there higher end cars

[Aegonzlodzieje]

It is DULL , I'd say it looks like those old Hyundai sedans , which is really sad. There is nothing that would make this car One of a kind. ....

Honda go do your homework, or you'll sink in deep sh it.

[AhmedAltima08]

I hate that car, it is sooooo ugly! Previous one was a beauty, but Honda really messed up this time.

You want fun? Do like me and get a v6 Altima. Mine is 2008 model and I love it!

[datkoolbrutha]

I agree with you on that,lol! The sportiness of the Accord has been replaced with tired ass "aww just build it" styling!

[AhmedAltima08]

LOL, they are targeting soccer moms more than real drivers!

[datkoolbrutha]

WOW ain't that the truth,lol! The Mazda 6,Nissan Altima,Ford Fusion(maybe) seem to be the only sedans left that have a little bit of "sport" in them!

[killerbeau95]

The reason I just started liking this car is because I seen it on the freeway and it looked awesome!

You must be ugly yourself or something because this thing is a beauty!

[AhmedAltima08]

Accord clients are mainly boring people and soccer moms, so please define in which category you are!

Its ugly and it looks like it came out of some Japanese animation movie, and its dashboard is the worst I have seen so far, and boy I have driven so many cars of all types.

Honda should simply stop copying BMW designs and make its Accord designers work for their money! Park "the thing you call beauty" side by side next to a 2009 BMW 5 series and see how Honda shamelessly copied BMW design.

[quatlen]

I would buy a Fusion over this any day.

[PANJOSS]

the previous is much much better looking

[5Qu1Z33r]

Best family sedan? Sorry, NO. The best is BMW 5er.

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

@5Qu1Z33r

That's a luxury car that's over 50 grand and not a family car.

[5Qu1Z33r]

@JeremyFuhenstasser Not a family car? Tell that to Tiff Needell :) And it starts at 44.500

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

@5Qu1Z33r

SUVs and trucks are all technically cars. This car just happens to be a sedan. BMW 5 series is the best family car? I don't think so.

[5Qu1Z33r]

@JeremyFuhenstasser Do you know who Tiff is? Anyway, i'm not changing my BMW M5 anytime soon, and i've driven a crap load of sedans :)

[neoconsnightmare3]

@JeremyFuhenstasser exactly...the bmw 5 (and most others but the 3 series) are actually pieces of shyt. AT BEST they have 'mediocre' reliability. even the ford fusion has excellent. so does the honda accord and toyota camry.

if one just LOVES bmw and has to have it, fine, but they're paying $15,000 to $30,000 more for a car with lower quality and less reliability. wait, you get to say you own a bmw...and that's worth 'something' i suppose. LOL

[BlackTransAmdude]

So bland and boring. Come one Honda what happen to your sports cars?!

[sikhforlife1]

@BlackTransAmdude my dads honda looks way better nd sporty then thiss

[JeremyFuhenstasser]

@BlackTransAmdude

I'm not a big fan of sports cars myself. Bring on the trucks!

[raymanlegy]

@BlackTransAmdude yeah it looks ugly too lol

[sdlausen]

I used to be a huge Honda fan, but sadly not anymore. NOT ONE current Honda appeals to a younger generation, or me. All current Hondas are big, slow, Buick-like boats with the new Accord being the king. Honda has successfully killed off everyone of their sporty, fun to drive cars to satisfy mom and pops who love giant land yachts. The Civic Si is all that remains but if you ask me, that's not a sports car. It's heavy (1/4 in 15.7), and underpowered. HONDA, you FAIL!

BTW, the fusion is BETTER.

[datkoolbrutha]

Not only Honda,but Acura as well.And the biggest FAIL,was when they discontinued the Acura RSX,which was one of the best made cars they had! Even the TSX has gained weight! And back when the TSX fist came to the US, Honda motor company said they never planned to put a V6 in the TSX.

I was recently at an Acura Dealership,and asked them whey did Honda/Acura stopped making they RSX,he replied and said that Honda wanted Acura to be more luxury than sport.Looks like Honda is the same too.SMH!

[sdlausen]

HAH! I own a RSX-s and love it. Two of my car/Honda buddies recently bought 2 Mustang GTs. A 2005 and a 07. I guess Ford, Hyundai, and Nissan will picking up the tabs on stranded ex-Honda car enthusiasts from now on. Even the new 2010 Buick Lacross comes with a sporty 6 speed trans. I guess Honda and Buick swapped places in the market.

Once again Honda currently ='s FAIL!!!

[datkoolbrutha]

It's just sad though.Maybe Honda will learn,maybe not.Only time will tell!

[DeadofWinter321]

@datkoolbrutha Have you even rode in the new TSX? Their little I-4 engines have a lot more power than people think and it's real fun to drive.

[datkoolbrutha]

Yeah,I been meaning to check one out with a manual trans.I like the older model with the 4 cylinder.The one they have now is okbut just not feeling the new grille too much.That's just me.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen honda is giving americans what they want... a bigger, more powerful car. the honda accord is a FAMILY CAR and has FOUR DOORS, and for people that can AFFORD the car and the family. young people usually can't afford either.

as far as 1/4 mile or 0-60 time, if its under 8 seconds, so what? most accord/fusion/four door buyers aren't RACING their cars. when you plunk down $30,000 plus for a car, you TEND to take care of it, not abuse it.

[sdlausen]

@neoconsnightmare3 The point of my argument is that Honda no longer has the spirit of the 90s. They have killed of the R badge and fun factor out of their cars. If you haven't noticed, every car company has a halo/sports car for those who want it. Where is Hondas? I'm 28 and I still love the spirit Honda had in the 90s. I love driving spiritedly and having fun with my cars. Honda no longer offers this to it's customers. If they don't do something about it, Hyundai will bite them in the ass.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen i understand what you're getting at, but honda is selling quite well, and is always a 'best buy', particularly the accord.

toyota doesnt have a 'halo' or sports car.

hundai doesn't really have any 'sports' car. they have what works for them, which pretty much is knock offs of toyota and honda, the 'big sellers'.

in fact of the japanese manufacturers, only subaru and mazda have 'sports' sedans. mazda's quality isn't up there with honda and accord. people buy honda and toyota.

[sdlausen]

@neoconsnightmare3 Now you're wrong in pretty much everything you've just stated. Toyota sports cars: LFA, IS-F, and a new AE86 coming out within a year. Toyota doesn't have the best lineup, but they have something. Honda sales have actually dipped about 4% and undoubtedly will continue to fall with their bad lineup. Just look at the rolling conundrum they are coming out with, the CR-Z. Hyundai has the Genesis, not much, but something. They also have a sport hatch coming out, the Veloster.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen nope, i'm pretty correct. honda sales are still solid, because they sell to their market. their market no longer wants to race. as far as the toyota is-f, correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't that a LEXUS? if so, honda is bringing BACK their 'sports car' that was under the ACURA name...the lfa is also a lexus, not under the toyota name.

the 'new' ae86, from what i just read, is still concept and 'in the future'. if it comes to pass, good. if someone buys it, better.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen now you mention the hyundai genesis, the coupe, but it's engine, though 'peppy' isn't really much of a sports car...it's a sports COUPE.

all that to say this...if you want an AFFORDABLE coupe for kicks, there are plenty of car manufacturers that currently have that. lexus is too expensive a toyota for that.

but honda is making plenty of well built, well bought sedans in large and small fashion for THEIR TARGET MARKET...same as toyota. no need to change what works.

[sdlausen]

@neoconsnightmare3 I pretty much still disagree with everything you're saying. I'm 28 and think Honda is ridiculously boring and unattractive. This is coming from a current RSXs and previous Honda owner. Honda is pretty much the new Buick. As a repeat customer, they've lost me. As much as I don't like it, Hyundai will take over Honda in sales/volume pretty soon. Ford is my next choice.

FYI, I know you know Toyota is Lexus. So in my opinion, the LFA and ISF is Toyota.

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen it's your right to disagree with me on our opinions. we're at different stages in life (i'm married, have a little girl on the way, and don't 'race' my $30K plus car). I do four doors, you do two.

But facts are facts, and the Hondas (not Acuras) are actually 'more sporty' than their Toyota counterparts (for instance, any reviewer will say the Accord gives more road feel than the Camry...once described as the 'Walmart of Midsized Cars" by Car and Driver Magazine).

[neoconsnightmare3]

@sdlausen and, if you're going to go to Lexus as being a Toyota, Acura TL is pretty much seen as 'sportier' than the Lexus ES. In fact, up and down the sedan line, Lexus is seen as 'old school luxury' where Acura is seen as 'sporty'. Acura is even getting an 8 cyl for the RL flagship. Both are giving their target markets what they want. Acura is even bringing back a top line coupe in two years.

And I'm a fan of what Hyundai has done, but no hint they'll overtake honda any time soon.

[sceptember]

@sdlausen How can you say that? When you say "younger generation," like what age are you talking about? I live in Miami, and all you see driving civic coupes are teens!! And sporty? Have you seen the accord coupe? It is "the" car for successful young professionals and it's sexy as hell. Cant get any more sport than the accord coupe!!

I totally disagree with honda being the new buick. (Speaking of, have you SEEN the new buicks? Hello they are HOT, look at the LaCrosse)

[sdlausen]

@sceptember If you think a 3500 lbs front wheel drive Honda Accord coupe is sporty, there is something wrong with you. It may look good, but there is NOTHING sporty about it. Honda has nothing available for car enthusiasts. Honda used to be all about driving excitement. They had the integra R, NSX, S2000 etc. Now nothing spirited is in their line up, except the Accord Coupe which for some reason you consider sporty. Buick is offering some nice models, but they still don't have anything sporty.

[5218bunny]

@sdlausen sorry. We did all that already. Motorcycles are great fun, too.

[thehonza]

So blah...and getting uglier with every generation lol!

[datkoolbrutha]

You can say that again,lol!

[cerebraldamage]

Seriously. Did the Accord win most boring car in it's segment? Both the Camry and Accord make me ,ZZZzzzzzz... wait, waht, Oyeah that right the Accord is boring..

[datkoolbrutha]

They both are.There are,other companies that have sedans that are not boring.Like the Mazda 6,maybe Nissan Altima? Guess Honda and Toyota wanna target their buyers to be over 60 now! Looks like people will have to also spend more money and start buying European cars like BMW,Audi,Volkswagen,and various others for more sport sedan,than just a grocery getter,or family car!

[keunartist]

I'm sorry this car is really boring. now thay have that slap of ugly plastic chrome it is even worse. but I have to say the engine in this car is great.

[minibus1351]

I don't really agree with this one but I guess majority wins.
