To answer this poor reviewers question "Why do Hondas make a whining sound when in reverse?". It is actually a widely unknown safety feature. The whining sound is so pedestrians, and maybe even cars know you're backing toward them. I have a 2007 Accord, and I have never liked that noise. I can get over that though, becasue you dont back up often... and id rather own a Honda than any other car. RELIABILITY AND QUALITY!!
btw your car is a 2006 honda accord LX with DOHC IVTEC 166hp with 24 city mpg and 34 hwy. you should read the reviews more clearly since what you just explained for this cm5, the info goes to the 2008 and up honda accords cp2.
@CMLovejoy I thought that was Sam's voice to be very honest - Sam's voice engine is also present in readplease2003 software...it sounds similar....no kidding! :)

Im sorry, but this fool is "reviewing" cars when he knows nothing about them. First of all, the "whining" sound Honda's make when reversing is a pedestrian safety feature. The sound informs those nearby that something is coming (that the driver might not see). Then- this guy says "a gear shifter that shifts smoothly, and it sounds so amateur. I have never driven a modern automatic car IN MY LIFE that didn't shift smoothly (unless we are talking manual transmission, which we aren't)
@k1llljoy man you know hes not look at the shadow does it look like hes holding a paper in front of his face no his hand is by his side he knows his stuff
The sound it makes in reverse is due to the gear being straight-cut, meaning the teeth aren't tilted at in angle. Forward gears are at an angle so they don't make this noise, and the reason they really didn't bother with reverse is really, who's going to drive backwards for more than at most thirty seconds?
Honda's reverse gears aren't alone in this: Most cars' reverse gears are like that.
Wait..what? In one of your earlier comments you stated that "after 60 it was a dog and it was hard passing people on the highway". I strongly disagree with that comment. I have absolutely no trouble zooming up to 90 mph on the freeway (I own the exact same model featured in the video). I think maybe your inability to pass people doing 60 has nothing to do with the car and everything to do with your driving.
I didn't say the car sucks. I'm simply disagreeing with your statement of having a hard time passing people going 60. I didn't have this problem in my old '86 Accord let alone my '07. I feel no need to post a video because your statement defies common sense. I mean, come on. 60 mph? Really?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
this review is fucking horrible you cover so much shit that doesn't matter and your voice is annoying as fuck... LAWL BUCKET SEATS!!!!!! 4 way emergency light switch....why do you speak of this car in past tense, i have a 96 accord 2.2L non-vtech SOHC and automatic p.o.s. and my 60 to 80 mph is fine you dumbass.... "very responsive steering" you were going fucking 2 mph hahaha n00b, cars have struts.... and all honda's are independent why would you even say that... it has FWD
who the fuck do you think you are!! his review was pretty good and you can say whatever you want but just wait until something happens that he covered in the review that you thought wasnt necessary then you'll be sorry you talked that way.
That 5k rev limiter is just for park and neutral. I think to avoid damaging the torque converter, a lot of newer cars have them (at 4k or 5k, lower than the actual redline). In gear, the rev limiter is somewhere in the high 6k range I believe. Nice review!
Yeah, that's understandable for a 4 cylinder, as good as Honda's 4 cylinders are. You should test out the V6 model, it's better for highway passing and quicker in general, but the fuel economy is not as good (the usual tradeoff between a 4 cylinder and V6 engine).
@OmegaM41 Im really quite impressed with the 4 cylinder engine, its been fine for intense driving in san diego. Plenty powerful for passing in my experience.
Yea I'm a chicken and hide behind the camera, so every video I get try to get a little braver and show glimpses of myself. I'm just insecure like that I guess.
Hmmm i always wonder why people are like that, but to each person, that is different i guess. i just like to talk into a camera, as long as i look good :)

Well if thats the case then make a video of you "zooming to 60" then compare it with other cars in its class.
Put your video were your mouth is, otherwise don't tell me the car sucks because I can't drive it.
