  • This is my review/opinion on the 2013 Honda Accord EX-L. Unfortunately I lost some footage but I hope you find this information useful. A clip that I lost included the engine bay and I was very disappointed to see some of the bolts with heavy rust.

      I have a 16 ram sport with the 5.7 , been looking at the Hondas but really don’t want to sacrifice the “power” throw you in the back seat, could you tell me if this has that power and if not is it super noticeable?

    This CVT is one of the best on the market, I'm told! I bought one, a EX-L, and indeed is a bit diff but good: takes a little getting used to, but it does perform. At triple digit speeds, the vehicle is rock steady with a nice engine note! Kudos to Honda!

    I heard a lot of people love the 2013 Honda Sport with the 6 speed manual. Not so much with the CVT. The difference in gas mileage isn't that much of a trade off for more of a manual shift "fun" factor.

  • @ureviews
    @ureviews  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Brakes were good. In general it's a solid car. The things I didn't like were the seats, the engine/CVT combo, the lack of split seats in the back, the instrument panel, the lane departure capabilities and the rusty bolts in the engine bay were a turn off.

    • @ureviews
      @ureviews  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I test drove the Altima shortly after I did the accord it's been a while, but I recall I liked the Altima better. There is however some buzz on the internet about a noisy steering hydraulic pump or something to that nature, I would check to see if this was resolved. I did not notice any noise on my test car. At the end of the day you need to test drive each one and pick the one you think you will like for the long run. The only contender that I haven't tested yet is the Ford Fusion. The new 2015 Ford Focus looks interesting but it's not a mid size.

The interior shows signs of cheapness contrary to what magazines say. That 'dusty' trim around the secondary screen can be easily taken off and its a cheap piece of plastic trim.
