THIS IS AN EX-L, JUST WITHOUT MEMORY SEATS AND NAV. BLUETOOTH FOR CALLS NOT AUDIO Defintely over estimated this cars capabilities, but let me know your thoughts in the comments!!
I have the LX 2012 it is my first ever car bought it at 46,000 miles I know I’ll have this bad boy for a while I drive 70 miles a day so it gets from A to B no problem little over a year I put 15k miles. I Installed a dash cam added some subs just to make the best of what I got . Im very happy with it it’ll be good for another 10+ years
The price of used Hondas is 'steeper' than most BECAUSE of the reliability you mentioned - the extra price you spend on a Honda will just be spent on repair bills on any other brand within a years' time is the way I've always looked at it 🤷
Best car ever built right here. May not be flashy, but you'd be hard pressed to find anything with a better balance of reliability, affordability, comfort, and looks. If you're in the market for an A to B car, this generation of accord is hard to beat.
I just bought a 2009, 40th anniversary model here in Australia. It has some bonus specs over the base model such as Bluetooth, rear parking sensors and fog lights. I do long commutes in it and it is perfect for that.👍
My 2012 lx is still going strong!! Og engine and transmission. Ofc ive had to replace the occasional axle or ball joint. But shes just hit 304k miles. She was a graduation gift in 2017 with 72k on the odometer. My eyes tear at the thought of having to part ways... hopefully i have many more miles with her lol.
Cousins had 1994-1997, so 5th gen, Friends mom had a 2000, and grandparents had a 1998, both of the 6th gen. I've known people with the 2003-2007, 7th gen. And I know plenty with the 8th gen, like you show here. That is an EX-L, EX had cloth. There was LX, LX-P, which was an LX with I believe a power drivers seat an alloy wheels. EX had the cloth and sunroof, EX-L had leather. There was an SE in I think 2012, EX-L no sunroof. Then for the coupe you had LX-S with the EX motor, EX, EX-L and for both sedan and coupe, V6. I think I'd rather have a 2006-2012 Ford Fusion over this.
Purely looks based I'd rather have the accord in this video, but I don't know anything about the fusion and its features lol. Would love to research and review one though
Bluetooth is equipped in all the EX-L 8th gens. They just don’t stream music from your device. It only connects for phone calls. I own a 2011 Ex-l 6-6 coupe so….
I think this is true for the 2010-2012 models (correct me if I'm wrong). I have a 2009 EX-L i4 Coupe with no Bluetooth option for context. (In North America context)
A back up camera or reverse sensor sound signal should be on these. I have an EX-L V6 and it doesn't have either of those, while cars like a Prius had that as early as 2006-2008. Ridiculous.
Thats surprising that old of a prius has parking sensor. But I agree for the time period it is lacking to say the least I mean my mazdaspeed3 from 2011 was similar in price, but I have auto wipers, navigation, and bluetooth. The accords are really well known for their reliability though
2011 exl 2.4 sedan with 227k at this very moment, bought with 105k 7 years ago. only recently had to replace normal wear and tear parts. Most reliable car I have ever had.
Appreciate that bro. My setup is very simple I just use a go pro hero 10 with a hat mount to do pov. I use the go pro mic aswell. I shoot 1440p 240hz, my audio isnt the best so in the future ill get a binural microphone to boost quality. th-cam.com/video/9EEWH6zf46M/w-d-xo.html - This video is the ideal set up
@FrankShaft Fantastic! Thank you for answering thoroughly, my friend. I'm really like this format of videos (like yours and The Topher) and I've always had a thing for cars so I think I will start my own channel very soon.
I blew up my suspension on this car being a dickhead I’m only at 54k on the 2012 ex-l v6 and the car is just crabbing right now 2 mechanics said nothings wrong but this thing is about to snap at any moment 😭
Most of the accords after the 8th gen have CVTs in them which is disappointing. If I was getting a newer car in this style it would be a camry or an acura.
Im so glad I have the coupe and not the 4-door, the coupe version is getting rare and going up a bit in value. What a disgrace that honda killed all their two door cars.
You said you wouldn''t recommend at the end and that there are better options. Can you suggest some better options in this class/price range with Honda's reliabiility please?

Loved this, I have the LX currently
Best car - I have 2008 ❤
The irrigation district? I think he nearly irrigated his pants when he almost met his maker driving through that bend in the road. 😅
I nearly irrigated my pants laughing at this. LOL!! 🤣🤣🤪😫🍷🍷
The 2010 EX-L owned by my sister has bluetooth. I wonder why yours does not
This is an exl, the ex comes with gray, beige or black cloth seats only
Ex also doesnt have the dual zone climate or the leather wrapped steering wheel. I believe it doesn't have the auto dim mirror either
It is very good car then
Review a oppressor MK2

@@FrankShaft I’ll be waiting🙏🏽
I hope that's not someones car 😂😂😅

got a 2012 honda accord 2.4l for 7000 at 73k miles
Finally more new videos on the 8th generation Accord, amazing video and editing!
Thanks man I appreciate it!
@@FrankShaft Your content is extremely underrated. I hope to see you grow and become a well known channel in the future!
I have an SE and it handles like a champ around sharp turns. Super fun to drive on windy roads.

dang bluetooth and parking sensors for 2009 is really nice
I have one, they're great cars.

Underrated as hell brother, well spoken, well informed, and well edited. Solid video!
Appreciate that a lot man, I got much cooler videos than this coming up so stay tuned lmao
Its very basic, but reliable af.
A BROTHER WAS PUSHING THAT THAG
found the limits pretty fast lmao
I have a 2012 honda accord its the best
Mines still rolling with 177,000 on her with no issues!

Bro seems tall as 4K
thank you dotuno lawale
@@FrankShaft welcome. Just got a Honda Accord 2012. So was quick to check out your review
Im so glad I have the coupe and not the 4-door, the coupe version is getting rare and going up a bit in value. What a disgrace that honda killed all their two door cars.
Is buying one of those with v6 and 130k miles for 1800 a good deal?
i got one with 220 miles for 1600 go for it bro
Is that American dollars? They are 8,000.00 around me. Lucky to get a car you can tow away for 1,800

wonder why the oil light came on @ 0:10
thats true lol i didnt even notice
2012 havk on Deanna souders Rensselaer in souders llc face book
I had this car I HATED IT but they are reliable
lol whyd you hate it
The Interiors is topi the shirt even 2020 series
That’s an exl
You're also right, i assumed it was EX since it doesnt have memory seats or the navigation. But theres 2 different exl trims!
This is all correct. You didn't get memory seats in the 2.4
Wait did i just see oil pressure light lit :'v
It has Bluetooth look at the wheel
You're right, its really finicky getting it to work with audio and not just calls but it does work!!!
Which one do you like better? 8th or 9th gen?
purely looks 9th gen, but if i were to buy one itd depend on how much money i have because 8th gens are sooooo much cheaper
I like the 8th generation better.
@warrenkisin how come (out of curiosity)?
