Alex on Autos - Accord 2.0T Review and Road Test

Wish the sales were a little more reflective of the reviews that we've been seeing. Most seem to hold the Accord slightly higher than most of its competitors. Seeing as how the Accord has been a segment leader for years, I guess there are higher expectations that come with it.

I think that might be a big reason for the Camry's success this generation, is that its such a noticeable change from the outgoing model. Unfortunately Honda has set the bar pretty high with previous generations of the Accord, so its going to take a little more to rope in buyers. Hopefully dealers are able to get some adjustments to the current leasing/financing options.

The Camry, especially this time around has a lot going for it which gives it a major upper hand in this segment and even one above, where the Avalon competes. It doesn't help that I have seen fleet versions of past Camry's as Limo. Odds are that is and will be the case this time around. We should be spotting them soon with how long the Camry has been out.

Toyota isn't to Bad I drove 2 Different ones , Their Nav-i Drove My Partner Crazy , and to get Good System with Better Sound had to Go Near the Top Offerings .
V6 did Not get great Mpg . , I Believe they went that way - they knew there was going to be Fall Out - from Honda dropping the V6 ..( Some )
That will be Over soon enough - as I have been seeing a Lot of Accords -8-12 a Day ..
