Driving 2005 Honda Accord EX-L i-VTEC 2.4L auto Part 1/2

Driving video of a taffeta white 2005 Honda Accord EX-L 2.4 i-VTEC 5spd automatic in the rain. Acceleration run, windshield wiper speed/performance, steady cruising. Its a refined vehicle with more apparent power than my Milan despite the fact that they both have 160hp I4 engines. The i-VTEC is way smoother, quieter, stronger, and has a larger torque curve than the MZR Mazda 2.3L in my Milan Premier.

Whats the gas mileage on this car?

[mercmilan06]

@RickMakesGoodVideos 34-36mpg highway, expect mid-20s around town and in combined commuting

Quick question, Does your Milan have a 4 banger? I've driven a few Ford Taurus with the 3.0 engine and they were one of the smoothest cars I've been in.

[mercmilan06]

@watso64 yes the Milan is the 2.3L 4cyl...I've driven a V6 version of the car as well for a week and it was decently smooth, nothing special though. My mom's Jetta 2.0T and the Chevrolet Traverse both have ultra smooth engines as well.

I ahve EU version and it's 190 HP, is US the same?

[mercmilan06]

@stanson1980 the 2003-2007 2.4i Accords have 160hp and the 2008 and newer models have 177hp in trim levels below EX and EX-L and 190hp in EX and EX-L models

vtec did not kick in yo

[jbone51096]

@mkg00179504 the 4 cylinders power is more than enough for an average driver.

The 07 on back accords were great. The 08 to present ones are kind of crappy. It's just like the camry. The 06 on back were nice, but the 07 to present are crap.

[punchmaster123]

videos of cars being driven from a first person point of view like this one are strangely relaxing...

[mkg00179504]

i like 04-07 better than the new one, they are much more comfortable,the size is good and most important the road noise is less, i drove my friend 09 i was like where is this sound coming from.He was complaining about the same thing he cant do any thing now because he bought it like 3 months ago and now he realize the road noise.i also noticed this car has much better seats compare to 08,09 or 10. the only thing i am concerned about is the 2.4L engine how good is it in summer time with AC
