I got this car last night. IM IN LOVE ITS SO FAST
lucky i widh i had the hFP
the HFP is just a awesome difference experience you made a great pick, i have a 2012 accord coupe and wish it was a HFP...I am looking to get HFP Rims for my coupe though, accord coupes are beautiful reliable cars!
@@nickrah1737 even i4s ?
Great vehicle for the money. Even without the HFP package. I am on my second lease, had the 13 V6 coupe and mid cycle refresh 2016 V6 coupe. Car is quite fast.
On 4-15-17 I pick up my 2017 Accord EX-L V-6 with a REAL transmission such as this one is equipped with. This video- and several others on YT- helped me make that decision, along with a fun test drive!!
Please change channel name to "Sitting Sports".
thank god its a N/A V6 and not some turbo 4
Turbo 6 :D come on!
2018 sure wasn't nice to you....
Hard agree though. The new system may have proven to be *slightly* faster but just one more thing to have to worry about replacing and loses all that J series glory. As great as a turbo for the V6 would be, there just isn't the aftermarket support to make it worth it. Sadly.
Justin Bouche welp got u
@@JohnyTechReview
What it needed actually is AWD .
@@alickswiden71 the type s is a v6 turbo
Still enjoying my 2013 V6 Coupe, I personally wouldnt spend the money on the HFP
Peter Lee the HFP is an enthusiast option...
i agree much rather have coil overs
i traded in my 2015 and got this .. i used to hate the look of the 16s-17s but it grew on me over time. what i missed from the 15 is the ease of switching the camera views with the nob while reversing. in the new one you've gotta ease your back off the seat to touch the infotainment screen. but, the addition of android auto and carplay makes up for that. i can watch youtube via android auto's web brower! the only thing i need to add is the hfp sport suspensions, lower it 15mm and the hfp rims then it'll be fully hfp'ed out.
Agree. There's no way you can't get the 19's and suspension for $5k with some left to spare. That 'aero kit' surely doesn't actually do anything.
I just got the HFP suspension and wheels, no body kit. I’m happy
Looks like a great car, but unless they are doing something to the engine and trans, I don't think I want to spend the HFP $5k, no the less, looks good.
Alex Nunez its suspension upgrades. The car is already UNDERRATED at 278. It's making 302hp. You don't want more power in a FWD car already has plenty. The main complaint with this car is the suspension not matching the drivetrain
Alex Nunez yeah it's a nice upgrade but not $5,000 worth. Maybe $2,500 for the suspension but still pushing it in my opinion
Simba TheGreat I can see that being an issue, I rather save my $5k and find a good aftermarket option for it.
Alex Nunez yea a nice set of coilovers or even lowering sprigs would work better but you pay for oem quality and warranty with these. But I agree
Got an Accord Coupe with V-6 6-speed manual about 5 months ago. Great car. Already purchased the Tein SA coilover system with the SPC 3-piece camber kit. Also purchased some Advan RZII 19x9.0 (front) [245/40/19] & 19x10.0 (rear) [275/35/19] racing rims that are 9lbs lighter at each corner. Getting everything installed soon, can't wait.
I have 17 accord v6 sedan .. ex l... silver with dark tint... love it.... 26k miles and drives so good and fun... and efficient
2023 I’m thinking buying one do you think is worth it
A manual accord alone is rare enough, a manual V6 is very cool. I like the idea of the HFP package but it's too expensive. Subaru BRZ performance package is $1900ish and the MX-5's is $3400ish and you get far more for your money. I've always wanted an accord V6 manual bc it's just not common, but for the money there are several other great choices.
The only important item are the suspensions of the HFP package, and you can buy them for 700 dollars on EBAY. + fitment I would say around 900, rest of the kit is for style, spare 4 k and just get the important peace (coilovers and suspension from HFP)
:P ive been about 6-6 life for years now. i want a 2017 white hfp 6-6 next
Doesn't come in white, unfortunately. 6-6 only comes black, red, grey.
TheRealHeavyG 6-6 for the 9th is offers blue and white. I don't believe white is offered in the face lifted 16 and 17.
I just love the Honda 2-door Coupe it's a very good looking car and very sporty Honda you hit this out of the ballpark Honda winner
Got a 2012 HFP Accord V6 Coupe love it and paid half the price as new...
Can't trust this guy, he recommended possibly looking at a BMW or audi😂😂😂
Audi is FWD on base models
So much has been said about the lack of a volume knob for audio in the 9th gen Accord ~ I have an 2016 Accord EX-L V6 that I purchased new in Feb. '16... I use the audio volume control located on the left spoke of the steering wheel... and love the response & access. In my opinion: there is no need for a V control knob to clutter the dash
The volume is controlled on the left side of the steering wheel.
Use the volume control on the left side of the steering wheel. Much more convenient than reaching over to a volume knob.
I wish it had both.
It seems that the V-6 manual trans has a VERY tall reverse gear which is fine if one wants to do 40 MPH backwards, but not good for long clutch life or for walking out of a parking spot. Did you perchance find using reverse to be awkward because of the gearing, or is it a non-issue because of the V-6's low-RPM torque?? Just curious. I'm starting to DROOL at the possibility of getting this car!!!!
So nice. ...good job here Honda.
One of my dream cars ❤️ ❤️
so $5000 for essentially a slightly more sporty looking bod trim pieces that don't do anything, and suspension... maybe I'll just sink that $5000 into suspension I can get and install myself and then what's left and get intake and exhaust, probably even the J37 intake manifold and throttle body as well. Yeah, I'll take that option. Definitely love the car and want one in the future, but not dropping $5k for that.
3:34 there's actually 3 more seats
Nice ride but interested in the next gen now and hopefully that'll be ready within the next year or so
Honda went downhill after 2017.
best video about this car
$5,000. is far too excessive for red mats, a minimalist rear spoiler (which comes with the Touring model) and the better suspension with also comes with the Touring. Better to just purchase the Touring model and get it all performance features including the big V-6 278 H.P. engine. The Touring also include the full Honda Sense safety system which are worth their weight in gold and your life.
Accord v6 coupe 2013 n onwards models are best vehicles.
Drive the car more please.
In reference to rear seat space, you say, "..two short adults". My 2016 Accord EX-L sedan seats two tall adults as passengers in complete comfort
Nick Phillips when it comes to headroom obviously the sedan > coupe
Honda Factory perfomance, But no Extra power? WHERE IS MY 5Gs GOING!!
red floor mat WOW $3800 LMAO
So $5000 extra for a set of springs , that's a lot of money for a higher spring rate.. wheels and other crap the car already comes with ...not worth it ..IMO
Car already comes with suspension too... The difference is that all of these "upgrades" come from the dealer and covered under warranty. "Worth" is subjective, in this case. In my case, I had the HFP kit installed at the dealer and I took the stock wheels, tires, and suspension and sold it all for about $1200, so the $4k I negotiated for the HFP "kit" only cost me $2800. That's not too bad.
Just got a 2015 hfp in black and it’s already stage one and w an intake I’m making 332
Whata so cool about it these days when you could get a DCT (dual clutch transmission)on most matic cars while most cheap cars are available in manual trans
To justify its sportiness turbo must be standard on this HFP accord sport
What a terrible review
Everything is Great about this particular Honda Accord with HFP package from head to toes, One big thing is missing or I wish Honda could do to make this Beast more Fun Lively Amazing Performance oriented was to Add a Rear Axel by that I mean to Make it Rear Wheel Drive n everything is going to perfect. OMG I would fuck with BMW M MB AMG n I would pretty sure to beat their ass out no problem n I of course I would fuck with the engine to Boost HP n Torque. It's beautiful Beast but missing Rear Axle. Daaaaamn
I want just the suspension kit. If I get this and I need replacement will it be hard?
@ 03:11, Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start.
Honestly theses Honda’s should be at least 300 hp with 280 tq then the price would be reasonable
They are 300, Honda intentionally underrated them
If you buy the si over this you are a clown 🤡
i wouldnt pay 37k for that car. id pay more like 27k max. its nice though.
Where can I find one of these used? It’s like they don’t even exist.
The V6 6 speed coupes are a gem if you see one grab it fast
I'm checking one out this weekend
I want this exact car in color can’t find one though
I saw the 405 and some water on the Sat NAV. Looks like The Seattle-Kirkland-Bothell-Lynwood area maybe?!?!The Kirkland sign I think there is a Home Depot just down the road from there as well as the local paper print warehouse.
Yea I personally own an Odyssey and we got 2 other new Accord sedans in the house. They're great car, but really the coupe seems not that great compared to so many other offering. 3.5 278 hp is kinda weak compare to infiniti. Hopefully Honda have a revival and create some great new coupe that doesn't look so fat :D
JohnyTechReview Acura competes with Infiniti. This engine is putting out 302hp. Honda hasn't messed with the ratings since 2008 but have done numerous upgrades.
JohnyTechReview i have the V6 accord to. but i agree the infinity has the DOHC makes it a stronger V6 than Honda’s SOHC V6
It’s underrated for sure. I own a 2014 v6 6 speed coupe and I’d say it’s closer to 300 hp at the crank. Plenty of juice
Well, I had the ability to drive both the Altima and Maxima V6 for about a week, and the Accord Coupe was MUCH more fun to drive. The real competitor to the Accord Coupe was the 370Z, and that was just TOO sporty for what I was looking for. The Accord was a good sweet spot, and it is super comfortable to drive.
I'd argue that this coupe, specifically, is the last of a dying breed. There are no more sporty coupes based on sedan trims on the market. Everyone else gave them up, even Honda. This was a pretty special car. V6, 6MT, Coupe... Good car.
v6 twin turbo sounds good
Huh, where is there a V6 Twin Turbo?
I want to see and i hope to see a v6 twin turbo
JNS TRUCKING they need to decrease engine size due turbo extra components like inter coolers need space. Maybe, the increasing in hp worth it.
👍
6 speed yeah smaller engines that kick the bigger engines ass! All you need is a good turbo on a 4 cyl to smoke a v6 and even a v8
I want one bad
1:11 fucking yes I LOVE that old school Honda starter.. now only on the 6 speed v6 coupe. every other Honda has a more feminine starter and i cant stand it.
5k for those parts are total rip off. Red carpets? Are you serious. The only "Performance" aspect is the suspension and even that might be not a big upgrade. Add more horses (22HP would've been justifiable to get it to 300 or least closer to the Acura 290). Special edition trimming/lighting, exhaust system, drive modes, etc.
I don’t get why the Si can’t get this engine , specs and all..
Josh Mitchell cuz then no one buys/wants the type r.
Honda treats the US much better than the UK. Over here Honda gives us shit. The Accord was the best car I owned but you can't even get one of those anymore. Let alone a 3 door version with a V6 engine.
Very nice indeed. Looks like the Lake Washington area...
Are you perhaps any relation to Sean Douthett the land surveyor? Not a common surname... I do surveying work myself-
It is. We film often around Kirkland. Not related to Sean so far as I know. If so, it would have to be pretty far back up the family tree. Most Douthit's are around the East Coast with a concentration in North Carolina. - RD

Thank you for letting me know. You're right, it would have to be quite a ways back as your surnames are spelled differently, too. I just heard the name 'Douthit (Douthett)' and saw the location, and put the two together in error... FWIW, I lived in the Lake City/North City area of what is now Shoreline for about 40 years, hence my familiarity with the location.
Back to the Accord- seriously thinking of getting a 2017 as the series has matured; I just can't decide whether to get a V-6 or an I-4. Regardless, I am SOOOOO thankful that Honda recognizes the fact that manual transmissions can be a deal MAKER for some of us. I insist on a manual trans, you have infinite control of torque application in adverse weather conditions... not to mention they are FUN...
By the way, great video!!! Subscribed.
$5k for that package? LOL. Biggest ripoff ever.
Idk, I still prefer the touring model 😃
Save the money for real improvements - buy 3rd party lightweight wheels (will guarantee increase your acceleration times a good bit), a Progress sway bar, Jpipe, Ktuner, and J37 manifold.
All of that stuff is for kids. I agree if you buy a used one out of warranty and want to turn it into a track car. Daily use... that noise is just for kids and who's got the bigger peen.
Is this model still available for purchase?
They stopped making the coupes :(
Used Hondas are still reliable
Last model year for the V6 was 2017...
way too much money
way too much, but way to much holds their value🤗
is this a real Japanese car or just an imitation ? made by others.
that aero kit is just plain hideous!!!!!
my god.. such trash. and no sedan?? More reason to never let go of my TL-S
Not worth it.
But it is still a FWD...no fun even compared to a lame RWD..
Camaro 6 CYL rear wheel drive brand new and loaded. Same price would KILL this thing. Much better handling and interior too.
4SHO421 fast in a straight line that it. Hate the new American muscle. Just fast that’s it. Crappy aqua interior lights that they haven’t changed in 30 years, and hard plastic junky interiors. No resale value. Pieces of junk
But when you buy a Camaro, what you get is... a Camaro. Where as if you buy a Honda Accord, you don't end up with a Camaro. I'll admit that the Camaro is holding it's resale value, but it's ugly and feels very cheap inside, even when loaded.
4SHO421 and you’d have a V6 Camero. I have a 2012 Accord V6 limited. It’s faster than the V6 camero.
you look closer to 300 pounds
honda is shit now.
