It's great to see another person who takes such great care of their car despite it being considered "old". so many people I know think 2007 is old... they think I is crazy I take such good care of my 2001 accord coupe, I personally think everyone should take great care of their car despite the age!
Love this video! I also have the 2.4l k24 ex-l but the 2004. I was just as excited as you were when i first got it years ago. still running strong. and i drive alot.. hope your still drivin it and lovin it. Cheers Bud!
Fantastic..im just seeing the video today..do you still own the car after 5 years. I also own a 2007 honda accord refresh model. Its such a very comfortable and excellent car..drives smoothly but my only problem is the fuel economy..mine is the EX.L trim automatic
Your video is fair and honest very in formative. I just bought on with 187k V6. Exl. Automatic.i love mine it's dark blue. New tires had to put brakes all the way around tho. It's in great shape and I love it. It's a very modern look for the year and era. Rides better than a honda. Honda's are great cars really like yours as well. Thanks again for the video.
What do you mean by post refresh? This car was redesigned from 2002, and was then refreshed with the all red tail lights in 2005 and with the LED tail lights in 2006. I do prefer this look though. I just picked up a 2003 Accord EX 2.4 stick with Leather. It's black. I'm pretty sure mine is a 2003, but I have the heated mirrors.
Further more i love how u do business in the US..unlike nigeria where car dealers are dishonest.my honda accord was worked on before i bought it and I didn't notice until after i bought the car. i definately had to spend alot of money to put the car in better shape.the underneath was so rusty
I've always liked the 7th gen accord. I mean look what I competed with in the day Taurus , Camry , Impala , 300 , sonata , etc... Personally I think this aged the best! Also, do you think you'll add an air intake?
I have found an automatic with an awesome car fax 19 recorded service's. 2 owners and its gold. 166k miles do u think I should buy. I will have gap but no warranty on it...
Very good looking car and really good condition considering it's age. I actually really like this Accord, the only thing that bugs me is the reflectors in the front headlights (which I know is a requirement for cars in America). Very nice!
Hello, my father lost his only 2003 honda transporter chip key. I got a new cut key for the car but i need to program it. Can i do the programing the key step by step by my self. if so thank you very much.
In all honesty for as much money as the TSX goes for there are many other things I would just rather have (including this one) but they're still really good cars. Also impossible to find clean ones with the manual transmission (didn't want another automatic)
If I find one I will buy a TSX 6MT. That has been a favorite of mine forever. Such a special little car. I'm having a hard time finding both the Accord and TSX with a manual in my area under $8000. Top choice right now a long with those two is a 1st gen Mazda 3.
It's not difficult to find an auto TSX or an auto Accord, but manuals are far more difficult. There is a 1 owner no accidents TSX 6MT saved on my search with 83,000 miles for $6990. I have my license but I'm not 17 so I can't get it now, but if I was you bet your ass Id drive to Jersey to buy that car. If I can find one like that in a few months I will buy it. There are deals out there.
Thoughts on the crash test scores of this car? Was that of any concern to you when you bought this car? I'm currently looking at a mint condition EX model with 130,000 miles and I might get it off the lot for under $6k out the door, but it scored Poor in most areas outside of frontal impact.
I hated my old '05 Ford Taurus SE. But I will say it had enormous sun visors that slid out rather than the dinky little extender. My '04 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro has the dinkiest sun visors. I will never understand Honda's reasoning as to why they won't use a split folding rear seat in the Accord. Civic has it on EX and above in coupe and sedan. When will we get to see a test drive video?
time to get used to the sunroof control again! After 7 months and 10,000 miles I still find myself hitting the TCS button instead of the sunroof when I go to close it
I NEVER got the hang of it in my CB7. Even my friend with her 02 Civic somehow opened the sunroof and then forgot how to close it because of the stupid location.
I noticed that the sunroof in the cb7 was really fast also. My cb9 was almost twice as fast as my moms 2013 4Runner. And I HATE vsa. Our odyssey has that. I just leave it off
Nice car Jake. I think I told you previously that my sister has a 2005 Accord EX-L, auto, 4 cylinder. Last time I checked she was at ~132,000 miles. She has taken really good care of it (maintenance, etc.). Summer of 2013 we took her car in for service and she asked to drive a new Accord EX-L. While she liked driving it, she thought it felt cheap, especially the door panels. We got back in her '05 and her comment was "Now THIS is a nice car!" I have to agree.
Does it burn oil? Many Accord 2.4 4 cylinders do......My 2003 eats a quart of oil about every 700 miles. Crappy defective engine made by Honda. Worst Accord made was the 2008 model, thousands of complaints about oil consumption and other issues.
Motor City Man my dad had an 05 2.4 with 200k and didn't leak any oil. Now he has an 08 with 105k and it doesn't leak any oil either. Idk what you're talking about.
Bajaheat What year is yours? And a quart every 3,000 is nothing. The 2008 Accords had horrible brake pad issues. Thousands of complaints about going through brake pads in 10 or 15,000 miles.
Motor City Man have an 03 and 04 both use around the same amount and both now have over 160k miles. They have both been great cars. No transmission issues. Just normal maintenance.
+Jorge Junqueira Loved it. Mine was a pretty ragged out one with almost 180k and it still put a smile on my face to drive. That being said it really wasn't that great for what I was using it for (40 mile a day highway commute) and would be even worse for the 60 mile a day highway commute I have now. Jakeman651 on insta....if you go back far enough I've got plenty of pictures of it. Car was pretty much bone stock and I only owned it for a few months.
+Jorge Junqueira Wasn't a fan of the harsh ride with the REALLY bad roads in my area and how high it revved. I also really just need 4 doors on my daily driver and the EP3 really had a small trunk. Overall I loved it and still get excited when I see them around but it just wasn't that good for what I was doing when it when I look back .
Fantastic..im just seeing the video today..do you still own the car after 5 years. I also own a 2007 honda accord refresh model. Its such a very comfortable and excellent car..drives smoothly but my only problem is the fuel economy..mine is the EX.L trim

Car geek 101 hhhh
It's clear the previous owner took very good care of this car! Looks great!
I love the car, looks great. I have never seen this generation in a stick.
My '03 Accord is running like a champ at 202k mi

most people don't know that all windows come down when you press twice and hold the second time the unlock button
Sweet car Jake, congrats!

I have the v6 automatic . I love love love it ! :)
My dad had a 2005 Accord EL-X Manual and it lasted to 240,000 miles! Definitely an awesome car!
oh wow. The super ultra rare EL-X.
Jakeman has an ex-l so i dont think it will last as long
I have an 04 ex-l v6 6spd and I love it

Never noticed that the pre-refresh did not have the passenger seat sensor. Ours has the indicator light above the hazards button
Further more i love how u do business in the US..unlike nigeria where car dealers are dishonest.my honda accord was worked on before i bought it and I didn't notice until after i bought the car. i definately had to spend alot of money to put the car in better shape.the underneath was so rusty

Honestly I don't know. Its kinda nice to be in a car that's as smooth and quiet as this one is.
He likes the Honda civic EX the best... Didn't you watch the video? well, I mean you do have a yellow Tonka truck as your picture.
NICE New Car! 2003 Honda Accord EX-L 2.4 5-spd
"And my fat ass back here" lmaooo
I have found an automatic with an awesome car fax 19 recorded service's. 2 owners and its gold. 166k miles do u think I should buy. I will have gap but no warranty on it...
Very good looking car and really good condition considering it's age. I actually really like this Accord, the only thing that bugs me is the reflectors in the front headlights (which I know is a requirement for cars in America). Very nice!
I have an 05 accord DX. Didn't have power door locks/trunk. I went to a shop and added power door locks and power trunk. Also remote start
Hello, my father lost his only 2003 honda transporter chip key. I got a new cut key for the car but i need to program it. Can i do the programing the key step by step by my self. if so thank you very much.
What's the average city/highway MPG on this car?
Did you look in to getting a tsx? I personally own a 04 tsx. But I love this gen accord too, almost got one before my tsx!
In all honesty for as much money as the TSX goes for there are many other things I would just rather have (including this one) but they're still really good cars. Also impossible to find clean ones with the manual transmission (didn't want another automatic)

yes, dont crash. especially if the airbags weren't repaired.
does your accord also come with carbon ceramics?
I hated my old '05 Ford Taurus SE. But I will say it had enormous sun visors that slid out rather than the dinky little extender. My '04 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro has the dinkiest sun visors.

how much you gat it for
This one or your dad's 2007 Jetta, which do you prefer?
time to get used to the sunroof control again! After 7 months and 10,000 miles I still find myself hitting the TCS button instead of the sunroof when I go to close it
I NEVER got the hang of it in my CB7. Even my friend with her 02 Civic somehow opened the sunroof and then forgot how to close it because of the stupid location.
Jakeman21642 really, I think the sunroof control is so convent (I own a 6th gen accord)
Do you still have this car?
Wehey! Nothings wrong with my car!! Same engine and it sounds like crap on idle, just like this one!! Great car tho.
I noticed that the sunroof in the cb7 was really fast also. My cb9 was almost twice as fast as my moms 2013 4Runner. And I HATE vsa. Our odyssey has that. I just leave it off
Very nice car!!

I got an 06 model with the beige interior
what's the vid called on the last update of the civic
Are the interior door handles real metal or painted plastic?
Real metal
Tommy Siro Nope, they are painted plastic. I know this because I recently replaced one on my 2005 accord that had the chrome paint coming off.
15:34 " it is lit"
"21642" is a zip code nr for Limhamn in Malmoe, Sweden :)
Have ESP o ASR ?
do a plasti dip on the rims so i can c what it looks like cuz i need ideas for mine
Hell no.
Never store your wheel lock in the glove box .
Hide it somewhere .
I wonder if you can finish your own sentence 5 years later
Door have nice thunk

Gas Drawls
I didn't say anything about LEAKING oil.
Motor City Man a quart every 700? Jesus. Mine burns a quart every 3k miles and I'm ok with that
Bajaheat
What year is yours?
And a quart every 3,000 is nothing.
The 2008 Accords had horrible brake pad issues.
Thousands of complaints about going through brake pads in 10 or 15,000 miles.
Motor City Man have an 03 and 04 both use around the same amount and both now have over 160k miles. They have both been great cars. No transmission issues. Just normal maintenance.
What ab the ep3?!:(
+Jorge Junqueira Yeah that car was totaled before I made this video well over a year ago now.
+Jakeman21642 did you like it ? I have a red one. Do you have Instagram or anything or pictures of it
+Jorge Junqueira Loved it. Mine was a pretty ragged out one with almost 180k and it still put a smile on my face to drive.

+Jakeman21642 why wasn't it good for your long drives ?
+Jorge Junqueira Wasn't a fan of the harsh ride with the REALLY bad roads in my area and how high it revved. I also really just need 4 doors on my daily driver and the EP3 really had a small trunk. Overall I loved it and still get excited when I see them around but it just wasn't that good for what I was doing when it when I look back .

How to changer phone
You got a bad price for that many miles
Older Hondas were way better
