Yeah my 2018 TLX AWD has the same wonderful V6. The gearbox is trash but the engine is wonderful, so is SH-AWD... Imagine if instead of that terrible jerky 9 speed auto, it had an Audi DCT, properly tuned, and maybe some double wishbones at the front like the newer TLX ... Now that would be real nice!
I recently bought an 05 Accord V6 with 200k miles on it cause I needed a cheap daily driver, and I was surprised how solid and strong it felt for it’s age. Not to mention I’ve had it for an additional 15k miles and had minimal issues. Accords are GREAT cars!!! Best 1200 bucks I’ve spent 🤣
My pops bought an 03 V6 Accord coupe about 2 years ago 100k miles on the dash and its given him no problems so far, there's a reason these cars maintain their value on used car lots
I have the 2016 version of this car, and I absolutely love it. It’s quick, but also gets pretty good mpg when you want it. I like the looks of these much better than the current models.
Literally bought this car yesterday and am waiting for it to be shipped, Im so excited! Ditching my 2010 base model civic coupe for this fully loaded beast.
I currently drive a 2017 Accord Coupe V6 Touring, San Marino Red and I freaking love it! I get compliments all the time from both men and women. Hopefully someday it'll be a sought after car but I have no plans of selling anytime soon.
That was the car i wanted but had to settle for EX-L sedan with the 4 banger cause i found it for a good price. Dont mind the fuel saving and how smooth the cvt is but that extra power and actual gears is missed. Specially since im coming from a 07 tl type S but on the upside the ladies seem love the tan interior and how comfortable and specious it is lol
@@Conconboss yea we had tan interior in dubia there the tan interior made the carpets tan so even brighter here in usa now u got the black ones its a good car
I had a 2013 Accord Coupe V-6 EX-L, and recently traded it in for the very same one that you have. Wasn't easy to find a 2017 V-6 with less than 30K miles, but made a visit to the DFW area Carmax and came up with one. Unfortunate that Honda did away with the coupe, I think that there are plenty of us that still like a two door car that's reasonably priced, with the reliability of a Honda. This car is a joy to drive.
Really, I’m looking at this exact car. 89,000 for $22 one owner. Haven’t decided yet. It’s gorgeous. Don’t really see to many of them around. Which I like.
@@BenJammin77 Yes , was so sad when they did away with them. I’m looking at this exact car in the vid. Has 89,000 mile for $22 though. Haven’t decided.
Such a beautiful car. Those 2013 models and up are just something else! Beautiful exterior and interior, quick, and uses 3 cylinders when you are at slow speeds!! Just simply has it all 😍
@@henryquevlogsss2108 look up cases among all types of manufacturer’s cylinder deactivation. Simply said, too complicated of a system to work long term. Chevy trucks had many issues. Big issue is when you activate all cylinders and the 3 deactivated ones aren’t oiled up properly.
I’m currently driving the 10 Accord 2.0T, but I sure do love and miss the Accord coupe. Especially the V6. This example here with only a little over 60k is barely broken in. I got 360,000 miles out of my 2006 Accord.
@@imunmire I had a 2013 sport 2.4 CVT basically the same car you have and I was looking into a new car, basically a new accord and I went to test drive a 2020 sport 2.0T with the 10 speed and I really liked the car, there was a 2017 touring V6 and I said I wanna try that one, and after driving it, I bought it, Is so much better looking than the new one and the V6 is just perfect, I liked more the interior of the new one but whatever the exterior looks and engine were more important to me, I love the car there is just one thing the 6 speed auto is not the smoothest transmission, specially if you’re coming from a CVT or even any other automatic transmission, at lows speeds you feel every shift it does but not all the time, and when you’re braking the car unexpectedly downshifts and the car brakes more than you expect it to do, I kind of got use to it but is annoying, in the other side when you floor the car every time it shifts at redline you feel every shift, like they make a small kick in your back and that makes it kinda fun and unique because I haven’t driven another car that does this things, they could be annoying to you maybe, but besides that I would say the car is almost perfect I don’t have any other complain
Although the new, at the time, 2018 2.0T was on the lot, I got the 2017 V6 Touring instead. No regrets! Especially adding a powered JL Audio 12" enclosure.
I did the exact same thing, went into the dealership looking for a white 2020 sport 2.0T and I drove it and everything and I end up getting a gray 2017 V6 touring, the exterior looks so much better btw 😅
@@samwh4775 same 😂 test drove a 2021 left with the 17 touring, i just love how the car looks on outside. did 2 muffler deletes and resonator delete along with cold air intake. car sounds lovely
I bought this car with a manual transmission new. Its even better with the manual transmission. It’s the best car I have ever own. Coming up on 125k miles and all I have done is change the oil and the air filter. I haven’t even changed the brake pads yet. I live in the country and the thing even handles unplowed roads. Only downside is the factory stereo.
I have this exact car brotha and I love it to this day. They say You know you love your car when you look back at it every time you walk away from it 👌👌👌
Technically I think the generation before this Accord V6 was the last really great Accord. It came in a couple, V6, Manual, but what makes it better than this one is the fact they hadn’t gone cheap on the suspension yet. So this still has double wishbone front suspension and this one went with the McPherson Strut front suspension
i am driving a 2017 V6 Touring sedan with 110,000 miles. The engine is a beast and at full throttle the transmission shifts like a loaded gun releasing a bullet.
Same white I have 109,578 I would suggest you do the timing belt tensioner before it starts tapping at start up. While you’re at it, do your timing belt itself, water pump, valve adjustment and spark plugs.
I've owned my 2015 Accord Coupe EX-L V6 automatic in white orchid pearl and the same beige and black leather interior for nearly 8 years with absolutely zero issues and almost 87k miles. Fantastic vehicle. Engine is as smooth quiet and powerful as it was when I bought it new! Honda quality is hard to beat. I've been offered 17k for it but it's paid for and all I do is change the oil twice a year and regular maintenance . That's it. Hard to beat and hard to part with! Love it!
@@xxlone_wolfxx4147 Make me an offer. And where are you? I'm 15 miles south of Nashville. We can talk and I can answer any questions you have about the vehicle abd everything I've done to it maintenance wise. I have all the records and did 95% of it myself with the absolute best fluids filters and parts available.
Finally got it reviewed! Looking to get this as a daily driver soon because I just believe in the durability of naturally aspirated engines, not to mention that it looks great 👌🏾
I had to special order a 6 speed v6 in 2017. Absolutely love it. It replaced my 2008 5 speed. This car will stay in my collection and will eventually be modified.
@@JustinDaniels My accord will eventually get a turbo, but at the moment I am looking at the 2022 Toyota GR86 to get a feel for rear-wheel drive. I thought about a new Supra, but I really like the new design of the GR86 and it's priced very nicely for a first track car.
@@brent9355 Yea, you are probably right. I did some spirited driving yesterday and it doesn't need to be modified. Naturally aspirated v6 sounds great.
This car is sexy, this year in jan I bought a 2017 Honda Accord Touring v6 with only 17k miles for under $21000. Feeling like I got a great deal. This car is so practical and yet still has that nice pull going onto the highway or from a dead stop with smooth power delivery.
@@MeynMotorGroup thanks man for sure, it's a sleeper and I love that. Besides everyone has the sport models and not the touring ones so they are a little less seen around
@@calebrampy3377 yeah man, before picking this car up I would make sure you get one that hasn't been abused, a lot of these touring models have very high mileage for a 4 year car. Also make sure this is what you want as since the time I bought this car the value has really gone up and you can get a nice used luxury car for the same price as this one so keep that in mind.
I got one of these 4 cylinder cvt black on black with the cloth seats and it’s still an incredible car. The backup camera stopped working for no reason and sometimes the volume knob is a lil glitchy but besides that it aged perfectly no other issues in over 120k miles. Decent in rain and snow because fwd, plenty fast for someone who has never driven actually fast cars and honestly as much as sometimes I wish it was the v6 with a couple more features, I’m still very happy with the 4 banger. I also like my infotainment more than this one mine doesn’t have a dual screen setup in the middle I have the top screen and physical controls for everything. The cloth seats are really good they feel sporty but comfortable. the exterior look, gauge cluster, and seats make the car feel special even after nearly 10 years of abuse. I think black is the best color for this car, I like that they are kinda rare but I occasionally see them around. Overall I think the styling aged perfectly. Also very spacious interior I’m about 6’ and can sit in the back, and if there’s nobody in the back seat there is a lot of room for front people
Hey, I have 19 inch wheels standard from the factory and after120k they ride is getting pretty rough over the bumps, should I swap to a small wheel size or a new suspension?
I love watching your reviews man! I feel like we have very similar taste in cars. I just sold my 2008 Honda accord V6 coupe with the six speed manual transmission, I had it for five years and had absolutely no issues with it ever. I absolutely loved that car and still miss it but moved onto my 2008 Ultrasonic blue Lexus ISF and I couldn’t be happier!
@@MeynMotorGroup thanks man. I honestly was in the market for the 10th generation sport. But the price for them things are crazy right now. Plus the 10th generation sports lack the features a touring has
Ive owned my 2015 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Coupe with the 6 speed automatic for 8.5 years abd its been flawless. 97k and it still runs and sounds brand new. I am extremely meticulous with my maintenance and do 95% of it myself. Just had the timing bekt service performed abd changed my spark plugs. She's easily ready for another 100k! She's definitely a keeper!
Hows the gas? Im thinking of getting one. Kinda worried about the backseat space since its a coupe. How much room is there in the backseat? Is it a tight fit? Hope you can help me out i see one for a good deal.
@@user-be9nz8tk5m On the highway on my trip home to Texas which 1200 miles I get 33-34 consistently. Mixed driving will be around 21. Back seat blew my mind.. remember it's built on a very big Accord 4 door platform. It's extremely spacious and comfortable back there especially for a coupe. It also has cylinder deactivation in the V6 which helps save gas by reducing power availability and lowering the hvac unit's power. Excellent vehicle. Understand that if you get the v6 you will definitely need to change the timing belt at 100k which is about a 13-1500$ service. 4 cylinder has a timing chain. So no worries there. I also drain and fill my transmission fluid every 20-30k miles. It's super simple and easy abd 3.5-4 quarts cones out abd 4 quarts on Amazon is around 42$. Easier than an oil change. No filter. Good luck with your search and I hope this helps.
I prefer the look of the 8th gen accord coupes, but the 9th gen looks great as well. They made them look a little to much like the civic though in my opinion, the 8th gen design was perfect
Another Top-Notch Review Yo ! Super clean coupe with a great interior scheme. With 70K on the odometer however, a now FIVE year old vehicle priced at 26 Grand illustrates how the CHIP shortage has directly correlated to cost gauging by dealers. Bottom Line ? Supply & Demand - They'll have no problem getting the ask. Keep ^Up^ The Great Content ! 🔜 💯 👌
I have a 14 accord i4 with the cvt but don’t let the name fool you they are surprisingly good, the cvt is actually really good for what it is and in 6 years of ownership, no issues whatsoever, definitely not a rocket ship but it gets out it’s own way and pulls on the highway, the v6 I’m sure is a blast but i’m moving to an LS460 after this car
Yup bought a 2016 lxs with a clean record 53,000 miles now at 56,000 and it’s so smooth clean and still pretty quick on its feet for not being a V6. Might go for a grey v6 in 3-4 years idk
I went from an Infiniti g37 coupe (loved this car) in 2008 to an accord coupe v6 in 2012. Haven’t looked back since. Got another one in 2015 and turned that in to get my 2017 accord coupe exl v6. Bought it new and currently has around 25k miles. When I heard Honda was discontinuing the coupe let alone the v6 I didn’t have to test drive any other cars for the first time in my life
I have the 2017 V6 EXL coupe with sensing ... I bought it brand new for $26,500 all fees and tax included . I purchase in 2018 when the 10th gen accords were out . Dealership was cool .... And today the car is worth $23k 👍
I had a 2013 accord ex-l coupe....some clown in a forester just totalled it couple of weeks ago. It held it's own against the v6 accord. It had a 2.4 liter vtech with a 7 speed cvt....man I miss that car 😪. Hopefully I can get a 23 accord 2.0 sport in the spring. Great video dude.
I hate that the coupe is gone and I hate that I contributed to it's discontinuation by not bothering to opt for one. Then again I was 16 in 2017 so I wasn't exactly stacked with cash to buy one even if I wanted to
They are rare, I was looking for months refreshing dealer pages and Facebook marketplace, eventually found one with everything I wanted, 6 speed manual included, and I’m proud to say I’m driving that same car 2 years later
I recently traded in my 2015 Accord V6 coupe for a Challenger R/T 5.7 Hemi. Is the R/T faster? Yep. More fun? Sure. But the Accord Coupe V6 is missed for its efficiency and solid feel plus has underrated power that you showcased. Thanks for the review and memories.
2.0 would be right next to, if not in front of the rt. We will see how reliable the k20c4 is long term. The 3.5 is proven! My only complaint about the 2.0 is the fuel tank size
@@DarrinLintz710 Yeah I agree that the 2.0T would be a close race with my R/T… Lol. Kinda embarrassing that I’d cower at a 4 cylinder family sedan at a stop light. That may be why there are some MOPAR enthusiasts who don’t like the 5.7 Hemi because some turbo 4s can beat it.
Nice review. I own the 2015 V6 manual. Effortlessly moves in any gear. A pleasure to drive. Comfortable, sits firmly on the road & steering is sharp. Keeping it for my kid to drive. Just got her permit, can’t wait to drive it for Real ❤
I love my 17 accord coupe V6 MT. I got her brand new from the dealership and it still feels as solid as the day i drove it off the lot. Honda really dropped the ball with ending the production of the V6 accord. The V6 6MT was given a J35Y2, which is a different version of the same engine as this touring. The J35Y2 was tuned to be more aggressive and responsive. I wish they kept this engine and made a TypeR variant of the accord. Edit: The armrest noise can be stopped if you put something to stop the plastic from rubbing. I used the clear rubber spacers.
@@rickhunter6513 I also blame honda for that. They aren’t the luxury brand that can get by on their name line for performance. The V6 coupe could’ve been marketed as their sports car with an amazing gear box. I’m sure there are several reasons as to why it’s not a made to order option, but I would pay extra for a reliable performance MT Honda Accord. I’d turn to Acura but they didn’t even make the TLX type S a manual.
@@rd4809 you’re probably right. The accord coupe, v6 MT should not be a “sleeper” car. Should’ve been front and center as a performance model with a couple other tweaks. Ah well
I want this exact make/model/color. I still drive my 2005 accord coupe V6. I think I’ll wait to see if used car prices continue to drop this year. Lovvvvve this car!!!
I own the 2017 Honda Accord Coupe V6 Touring (60,000 miles) (last one made / same car but crystal black pearl) and it is faster, with more features than essentially every car on the road. It is truly a gem and so slept on in all facets. I live in Mass and have yet to see another one of my exact car to this day. I feel like the V6 Touring Coupe’s are VERY rare and are nicer / faster than a lot of more expensive luxury cars. Also, the self-drive often works for minutes at a time and people are blown away it can do that. Then their is distance pacing, automatic headlights / high-beams, etc., all ahead of their time, underrated features. I am very OCD m, and five, six years later my car still looks brand new, especially the interior. I plan to keep the car forever. Thanks for reading. Any other opinions?
YES, have the 2016 V6 Touring (58k mi from new) and have driven the quicker new turbo. Not as jerky and appreciate the linear V6 output as my daily. Also, I drive F80 M3, Model 3 LR and newest addition Highlander XSE, so that linear pull is more than enough and satisfying as non-turbo. The Accord, pound for pound (considering cost), is as good as any of them 💯
I was driving my 2017 touring v6 yesterday and just now realized you can switch to normal cruise control Instead of that pain in the butt adaptive cruise control. I heard so many people complain about it that I just figured you couldn't defeat it .😂
I'm driving a 08 v6 high spec, and for a car that cost me 7k, super worth it. Accords, especially a v6 is a great car, just get a 2014 and bellow to not get completely ripped off
I have a 17 Touring sedan and it’s an absolute brilliant car overall. I love the coupes but I have to say, the sedan is equally as sexy( if not more IMO) Reminds me of an E class Merc. Great review! Also, I just recently put a Takeda intake on mine and you’re right, it sounds glorious
@@samwh4775 I completely agree. The front end on the coupes are contoured weird. But I love the ‘vents’ that are recessed into the bumper on the coupes more lol …. either way both great looking cars! One of the best looking Accords made I think
The best part of this car is the remote start and the side mirror camera. The remote start turns either the heater or the ac depending on the temp outside. That way, every time u get in the car, it's at a nice temp. The side mirror camera is amazing. It's so much better than a blind spot light. My only complaints are the visibility being pretty bad, and the seats aren't very comfortable. Probably the most uncomfortable of any car I've owned. However, I never want to get rid of it.
I have a 2013 Accord Coupe V6 76k miles in white and absolutely love it. I had a 2001 Accord Coupe V6 in white prior to it as well and sold it at around 150k. Sad that they aren't doing the coupe or V6 anymore. I have a Tacoma work truck and a 4Runner so I'll be able to keep the miles low on the '13 and keep it around for a long time.
Love love love my 2016 Accord Touring coupe!!! Sadly it got totaled in an accident. I knew I had to find another one just like it which was no easy task! But thank God I did find it’s twin same color but different wheels plus 6k miles less than my 1st one. Thank you for the video. Mine looks just like it😊
I have a 2012 V6 Coupe, and I love it. It’s not perfect, but it does everything well. The build quality is great, and the engine is such a gem. The only thing I dislike about it is the transmission. In its automatic mode, it’s lazy most of the time. You have to put in manual and use the paddles to get the most out of the engine. Overall, I plan on keeping it. I rarely see V6 coupes on the road these days.
I also had an eighth gen accord coupe with the v6 and I agree, it is such a great car! Might have a six speed manual transmission and it was so much fun to drive, I would suggest looking for the manual transmission in the future, you will not be disappointed!
Yes, there’s a manual mode for the 16/17. If you downshift with the paddle, and don’t engage the “S” gear from the shifter, the transmission will auto upshift. However, if you select “S” on the gear shift, and pull the paddle to downshift, you’re in full manual mode. In this mode, you’re on your own to upshift. Honda actually allows you to shift at redline, however the transmission will downshift for you automatically when you get to lower speeds. This only happens if you neglect to downshift.
@@ajlee6933 perfect, thanks for the detailed response. Exactly what I wanted, and would have been a deal breaker without paddles. This, Q50 hybrid, Elantra GT N line, is300/350 are on my shortlist. Here’s to hoping I get into dental school and get to reward myself!
Imo this 9th gen accord v6 touring before the refresh in 2016 was one of the hardest looking accords Honda made, compared to the 16’ and 17’, there was less gaudy chrome and gloss black in the interior and exterior, and overall more modest design, but also convenience things like hard buttons and volume knobs and less noisy 17 inch tires.
I wish more people bought them so that Honda still makes them! One problem is the price on new Accords is so high, that the target market is just slightly out of range and most targets buying used. Honda must know this.
Have a 2012 ex coupe v6 love it bought it cash wish I had the money for this version though. BUT I have no regrets 0 car payment is a very nice feeling to have.
I have an 8thgen V6 and I always say if I ever get another Honda it’d be a 9thgen V6 or a TLX aspec or type s. I just can’t agree with Honda for taking away the V6, so the 10thgen is completely out the picture for me. It’s just too large to have only a 2.0t/1.5 i4 option. Hopefully Honda makes a 3.5 comeback soon. I’d even be ok with a 3.0T option like the q50 Infiniti. Awesome review!
Agreed. I love the v6 accord. The 2.0 accord is good but you can’t beat the sound of their v6. The v6 accord coupe w the manual especially from what I hear is a sleeper
Yea I do love the new Accord great car but you're right the smooth tone/sound of this V6 is great. Manual is the way to go but idk how common that will be to find
Nice review! I’ve had mine for 3 years now. Bought it with 40k miles and I’m at 126k. I love it. I’ve modded it out and everything. I am planning to let it go soon though. I’ve had such a good time with it :)
ive recently picked up a 17 accord coupe 6 MT, granted it is the 4 cylinder engine. I love the car many great points even with out the 6 cylinder engine it has great power and response. I also get a lot of people making many comments over it being a standard shift transmission in a newer car. This is one car i will be keeping a very long time.
I have the V6 EXL 2014 version of this, and this is probably the best, fastest and most snappy car I've ever had, if they never make it again, I'll buy the 2017 in the future
My dream cars that I want to own: 1. 2022 Tesla Roadster (the sports car) 2. Tesla Model 3 Long Range (the daily driver) 3. V6 2017 Honda Accord Coupe (the sleeper)
It’s not just the v6 that’s nice Honda makes the best 4 cylinders imo they are very powerful for what they are and very reliable I would love to have this in a manual
Looks just like mine! Alabaster Silver 16’ Touring Coupe with black leather and all the Honda Sensing. Amazing car for a daily, also plenty of fun when you put your foot into it.
Noticed you mentioned a rattle on the passenger side. I bought my 2016 Accord EX-L V6 new and soon started hearing a small yet almost constant rattle on the passenger side. It had me baffled as I emptied the glove box, the console... even the trunk. Checked under the hood, under the passenger seat, etc and still could not find that rattle. Eventually, Ohio allowed us to remove the front license plate... and alakazam, the rattle was gone. It had been a combination of the plate and the mounting bracket. BTW: good review, thanks
I got this car about a month ago, 2016 in Pearl White Orchard with 9600 miles on it for $28k. Touring trim and it's great, the only things I want to do to it is get the HFP kit installed onto it and replace the taillight halogen bulbs with LED. I've also been looking into getting coilovers to drop it an inch but I'm not completely sold on that yet.
That automatic trans is a deal breaker. I had a 2014 Accord EXL V6 6MT. Loved the car, but honda really screwed up not adding an LSD. That car would wheel hop and torque steer like crazy from a dead stop. My only other complaint is the V6 has a timing belt, and not a timing chain. It can cost $1,200-1,800 depending on the shop, and it is not an easy job. If you ignore the maintenance schedule and the belt breaks you will have a catastrophic failure because it is an interference engine.
Honda should have kept the V6 as an upgrade in Accord. I have a 2017 v6 4 dr w/ automatic When I want a new car, I need to go to Acura to get a V6. I have owned a number of Accords over a 20 year period. I always trade them in to get new features. I still love it.
Is a great car, deffenitly got to get it in manual though! Fun fact the 2015 is the last 9th Gen with a volume knob and no driving assists, I personally think 2015 is the best year of the 9th Gen accord hands down.
@@d0p3fo05 Genesis was a little bit faster & more fun on corners; 5.2 sec to 60 mph vs Accord's 5.6 sec according to major car reviews. It had Brembo brakes. Bucket seats hugged my body/frame nicely without sliding. But Hyundai name reliability was unknown for me, and it had no backup camera. Quoted $30k-32,000 OTD brand new. Accord Touring V6 coupe had the Honda reliability from family experience. And it had back up camera, and the Lane Watch blind spot camera for lane changes to the right. Less expensive was a plus, quoted $29,000-29,900 OTD when it was brand new. Of course, it didn't have Brembo brakes nor did it's seat keep me from sliding during the corners. Both had cramped rear seats even for much shorter people, and it wasn't suitable for baby car seats. Sound system - I didn't really test for either vehicles. Trunk space - Genesis Coupe 3.8 has 10 cu. ft vs 2017 Accord Coupe's 13.4 cu. ft. Ultimately, if I didn't have kids nor married, I would have bought the 2017 Accord Touring Coupe V6 brand new overall because ultimately, the deciding factor is that it's exterior design won for me.

Wasn't easy to find a 2017 V-6 with less than 30K miles, but made a visit to the DFW area Carmax and came up with one. Unfortunate that Honda did away with the coupe, I think that there are plenty of us that still like a two door car that's reasonably priced, with the reliability of a Honda. This car is a joy to drive.
Really, I’m looking at this exact car. 89,000 for $22 one owner. Haven’t decided yet. It’s gorgeous. Don’t really see to many of them around. Which I like.
@@BenJammin77 Yes , was so sad when they did away with them. I’m looking at this exact car in the vid. Has 89,000 mile for $22 though. Haven’t decided.
Such a beautiful car. Those 2013 models and up are just something else! Beautiful exterior and interior, quick, and uses 3 cylinders when you are at slow speeds!! Just simply has it all 😍
They def look great
Cylinder deactivation is never good long term. With my stick shift I manage 26 city and 28 highway easily.
@@dragonfire1554 why not?
@@henryquevlogsss2108 look up cases among all types of manufacturer’s cylinder deactivation. Simply said, too complicated of a system to work long term. Chevy trucks had many issues. Big issue is when you activate all cylinders and the 3 deactivated ones aren’t oiled up properly.
You can override cylinder deactivation with a simple plug in and I highly recommend doing so
I’m currently driving the 10 Accord 2.0T, but I sure do love and miss the Accord coupe. Especially the V6. This example here with only a little over 60k is barely broken in. I got 360,000 miles out of my 2006 Accord.
New accord is an amazing car for sure very large, comfortable and drives great
I got a 2016 lxs has cvt transmission but it’s still fun af and looks so clean I’ll go for a V6 later on hopefully
@@imunmire I had a 2013 sport 2.4 CVT basically the same car you have and I was looking into a new car, basically a new accord and I went to test drive a 2020 sport 2.0T with the 10 speed and I really liked the car, there was a 2017 touring V6 and I said I wanna try that one, and after driving it, I bought it, Is so much better looking than the new one and the V6 is just perfect, I liked more the interior of the new one but whatever the exterior looks and engine were more important to me, I love the car there is just one thing the 6 speed auto is not the smoothest transmission, specially if you’re coming from a CVT or even any other automatic transmission, at lows speeds you feel every shift it does but not all the time, and when you’re braking the car unexpectedly downshifts and the car brakes more than you expect it to do, I kind of got use to it but is annoying, in the other side when you floor the car every time it shifts at redline you feel every shift, like they make a small kick in your back and that makes it kinda fun and unique because I haven’t driven another car that does this things, they could be annoying to you maybe, but besides that I would say the car is almost perfect I don’t have any other complain
I just bought a 13 coupe v6 6speed with 48k miles. Couldn’t feel luckier
Those turbos won't last get the v6 accord
Had the 2014 V6 Coupe & now I upgraded to 17 model and I couldn't be happier I love this type of car alot!
Got a 2014 Honda Accord coupe with the v6 and I love it. Got it at 47k miles for $15k. Same color interior as well.
That's epic my friend great car
Yo I have the same car as you too. Same interior and everything but I got mine for 13k
Although the new, at the time, 2018 2.0T was on the lot, I got the 2017 V6 Touring instead. No regrets! Especially adding a powered JL Audio 12" enclosure.
I did the exact same thing, went into the dealership looking for a white 2020 sport 2.0T and I drove it and everything and I end up getting a gray 2017 V6 touring, the exterior looks so much better btw 😅
@@samwh4775 same 😂 test drove a 2021 left with the 17 touring, i just love how the car looks on outside. did 2 muffler deletes and resonator delete along with cold air intake. car sounds lovely
Good choice, drive the gas guzzlers before they’re gone!
I bought this car with a manual transmission new. Its even better with the manual transmission. It’s the best car I have ever own. Coming up on 125k miles and all I have done is change the oil and the air filter. I haven’t even changed the brake pads yet. I live in the country and the thing even handles unplowed roads. Only downside is the factory stereo.
Beautiful car! The engine notes you get with the manual one is beautiful. It has such a nice tone. Congrats !!
I have this exact car brotha and I love it to this day. They say You know you love your car when you look back at it every time you walk away from it 👌👌👌
Technically I think the generation before this Accord V6 was the last really great Accord. It came in a couple, V6, Manual, but what makes it better than this one is the fact they hadn’t gone cheap on the suspension yet. So this still has double wishbone front suspension and this one went with the McPherson Strut front suspension
We just picked up a 2017 Accord coupe exl v6 WITH the 6 speed manual. Super clean with only 30k miles
i am driving a 2017 V6 Touring sedan with 110,000 miles. The engine is a beast and at full throttle the transmission shifts like a loaded gun releasing a bullet.
Same white I have 109,578 I would suggest you do the timing belt tensioner before it starts tapping at start up. While you’re at it, do your timing belt itself, water pump, valve adjustment and spark plugs.

I've owned my 2015 Accord Coupe EX-L V6 automatic in white orchid pearl and the same beige and black leather interior for nearly 8 years with absolutely zero issues and almost 87k miles. Fantastic vehicle. Engine is as smooth quiet and powerful as it was when I bought it new! Honda quality is hard to beat. I've been offered 17k for it but it's paid for and all I do is change the oil twice a year and regular maintenance . That's it. Hard to beat and hard to part with! Love it!

I have a 2017 V6, great car for a daily driver. Have 90k on it and it is running as good as the day I drove it off the dealer lot.
How's the car now
Finally got it reviewed! Looking to get this as a daily driver soon because I just believe in the durability of naturally aspirated engines, not to mention that it looks great 👌🏾
I had to special order a 6 speed v6 in 2017. Absolutely love it. It replaced my 2008 5 speed. This car will stay in my collection and will eventually be modified.
That's epic
It only needs a turbo, and then it would be basically a proper sports car!
@@JustinDaniels My accord will eventually get a turbo, but at the moment I am looking at the 2022 Toyota GR86 to get a feel for rear-wheel drive. I thought about a new Supra, but I really like the new design of the GR86 and it's priced very nicely for a first track car.
Don’t modify, it’s a unicorn. Future classic.
@@brent9355 Yea, you are probably right. I did some spirited driving yesterday and it doesn't need to be modified. Naturally aspirated v6 sounds great.
This car is sexy, this year in jan I bought a 2017 Honda Accord Touring v6 with only 17k miles for under $21000. Feeling like I got a great deal. This car is so practical and yet still has that nice pull going onto the highway or from a dead stop with smooth power delivery.
Excellent job that's a great car
@@MeynMotorGroup thanks man for sure, it's a sleeper and I love that. Besides everyone has the sport models and not the touring ones so they are a little less seen around
That’s a great deal I’m looking everywhere for one 🙃
Good shit bro! I got mine in February and I love it in every way. This is coming from a previous 335i owner
@@calebrampy3377 yeah man, before picking this car up I would make sure you get one that hasn't been abused, a lot of these touring models have very high mileage for a 4 year car. Also make sure this is what you want as since the time I bought this car the value has really gone up and you can get a nice used luxury car for the same price as this one so keep that in mind.
Just paid $600 for this car to be shipped to my dealer for my purchase I’m super excited ! Love the review
We will never see a V6 Honda Coupe in America again thanks to the SUV craze 😢
I got one of these 4 cylinder cvt black on black with the cloth seats and it’s still an incredible car. The backup camera stopped working for no reason and sometimes the volume knob is a lil glitchy but besides that it aged perfectly no other issues in over 120k miles. Decent in rain and snow because fwd, plenty fast for someone who has never driven actually fast cars and honestly as much as sometimes I wish it was the v6 with a couple more features, I’m still very happy with the 4 banger. I also like my infotainment more than this one mine doesn’t have a dual screen setup in the middle I have the top screen and physical controls for everything. The cloth seats are really good they feel sporty but comfortable. the exterior look, gauge cluster, and seats make the car feel special even after nearly 10 years of abuse. I think black is the best color for this car, I like that they are kinda rare but I occasionally see them around. Overall I think the styling aged perfectly. Also very spacious interior I’m about 6’ and can sit in the back, and if there’s nobody in the back seat there is a lot of room for front people
Hey, I have 19 inch wheels standard from the factory and after120k they ride is getting pretty rough over the bumps, should I swap to a small wheel size or a new suspension?
I have a 2016 accord V6 touring coupe in manual transmission. It's amazing
I love watching your reviews man! I feel like we have very similar taste in cars. I just sold my 2008 Honda accord V6 coupe with the six speed manual transmission, I had it for five years and had absolutely no issues with it ever. I absolutely loved that car and still miss it but moved onto my 2008 Ultrasonic blue Lexus ISF and I couldn’t be happier!

@@MeynMotorGroup thanks man. I honestly was in the market for the 10th generation sport. But the price for them things are crazy right now. Plus the 10th generation sports lack the features a touring has
Ive owned my 2015 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Coupe with the 6 speed automatic for 8.5 years abd its been flawless. 97k and it still runs and sounds brand new. I am extremely meticulous with my maintenance and do 95% of it myself. Just had the timing bekt service performed abd changed my spark plugs. She's easily ready for another 100k! She's definitely a keeper!
Hows the gas? Im thinking of getting one. Kinda worried about the backseat space since its a coupe. How much room is there in the backseat? Is it a tight fit? Hope you can help me out i see one for a good deal.
@@user-be9nz8tk5m On the highway on my trip home to Texas which 1200 miles I get 33-34 consistently. Mixed driving will be around 21. Back seat blew my mind.. remember it's built on a very big Accord 4 door platform. It's extremely spacious and comfortable back there especially for a coupe. It also has cylinder deactivation in the V6 which helps save gas by reducing power availability and lowering the hvac unit's power. Excellent vehicle. Understand that if you get the v6 you will definitely need to change the timing belt at 100k which is about a 13-1500$ service. 4 cylinder has a timing chain. So no worries there. I also drain and fill my transmission fluid every 20-30k miles. It's super simple and easy abd 3.5-4 quarts cones out abd 4 quarts on Amazon is around 42$. Easier than an oil change. No filter. Good luck with your search and I hope this helps.
I have one of those and it's just a fantastic vehicle for the price 👌 I bought mine under 35,000 miles. I'm in love with it.
Good choice!
Best Honda ever made right here all the v6s and even the 6 speed manuals sad to see them gone
I prefer the look of the 8th gen accord coupes, but the 9th gen looks great as well. They made them look a little to much like the civic though in my opinion, the 8th gen design was perfect
Another Top-Notch Review Yo ! Super clean coupe with a great interior scheme. With 70K on the odometer however, a now FIVE year old vehicle priced at 26 Grand illustrates how the CHIP shortage has directly correlated to cost gauging by dealers. Bottom Line ? Supply & Demand - They'll have no problem getting the ask. Keep ^Up^ The Great Content ! 🔜 💯 👌
I'm glad you enjoyed my friend. This is certainly a sellers market right now
The totaya and the honda have the same vvt tec
Got mine for 18k; 110k miles
I own the 2017 coupe added a KNN air intake system and it truly sounds amazing, love this car and wouldn’t sell it , a Honda happy customer 👍
I have a 14 accord i4 with the cvt but don’t let the name fool you they are surprisingly good, the cvt is actually really good for what it is and in 6 years of ownership, no issues whatsoever, definitely not a rocket ship but it gets out it’s own way and pulls on the highway, the v6 I’m sure is a blast but i’m moving to an LS460 after this car
Yea CVTs have come a long way people are giving it flack for no reason now. Make sure to buy a clean LS with a warranty
Yup bought a 2016 lxs with a clean record 53,000 miles now at 56,000 and it’s so smooth clean and still pretty quick on its feet for not being a V6. Might go for a grey v6 in 3-4 years idk
I watched this video and bought this exact car , 2 years later no regrets.
I went from an Infiniti g37 coupe (loved this car) in 2008 to an accord coupe v6 in 2012. Haven’t looked back since. Got another one in 2015 and turned that in to get my 2017 accord coupe exl v6. Bought it new and currently has around 25k miles. When I heard Honda was discontinuing the coupe let alone the v6 I didn’t have to test drive any other cars for the first time in my life
I have the 2017 V6 EXL coupe with sensing ... I bought it brand new for $26,500 all fees and tax included . I purchase in 2018 when the 10th gen accords were out . Dealership was cool ....
And today the car is worth $23k 👍
I had a 2013 accord ex-l coupe....some clown in a forester just totalled it couple of weeks ago. It held it's own against the v6 accord. It had a 2.4 liter vtech with a 7 speed cvt....man I miss that car 😪. Hopefully I can get a 23 accord 2.0 sport in the spring. Great video dude.
I hate that the coupe is gone and I hate that I contributed to it's discontinuation by not bothering to opt for one. Then again I was 16 in 2017 so I wasn't exactly stacked with cash to buy one even if I wanted to
Im looking for one of these right now. They seem like such a rare find.
They are rare, I was looking for months refreshing dealer pages and Facebook marketplace, eventually found one with everything I wanted, 6 speed manual included, and I’m proud to say I’m driving that same car 2 years later
I recently traded in my 2015 Accord V6 coupe for a Challenger R/T 5.7 Hemi. Is the R/T faster? Yep. More fun? Sure. But the Accord Coupe V6 is missed for its efficiency and solid feel plus has underrated power that you showcased. Thanks for the review and memories.
2.0 would be right next to, if not in front of the rt. We will see how reliable the k20c4 is long term. The 3.5 is proven! My only complaint about the 2.0 is the fuel tank size
@@DarrinLintz710 Yeah I agree that the 2.0T would be a close race with my R/T… Lol. Kinda embarrassing that I’d cower at a 4 cylinder family sedan at a stop light. That may be why there are some MOPAR enthusiasts who don’t like the 5.7 Hemi because some turbo 4s can beat it.
@@dychejs my buddy has a 5.7 charger. I'm trying to get him to catch a lane. I told him he will be surprised
The Honda V6 sounds incredible, makes this Honda deceptively quick.
Nice review. I own the 2015 V6 manual. Effortlessly moves in any gear. A pleasure to drive. Comfortable, sits firmly on the road & steering is sharp.
Keeping it for my kid to drive. Just got her permit, can’t wait to drive it for Real ❤
The V6 accords were so nice. Such a sleeper
I love my 17 accord coupe V6 MT. I got her brand new from the dealership and it still feels as solid as the day i drove it off the lot. Honda really dropped the ball with ending the production of the V6 accord.
The V6 6MT was given a J35Y2, which is a different version of the same engine as this touring. The J35Y2 was tuned to be more aggressive and responsive. I wish they kept this engine and made a TypeR variant of the accord.
Edit: The armrest noise can be stopped if you put something to stop the plastic from rubbing. I used the clear rubber spacers.
Unfortunately no one was buying them. At the very least they should’ve kept the v6 around
@@rickhunter6513 I also blame honda for that. They aren’t the luxury brand that can get by on their name line for performance. The V6 coupe could’ve been marketed as their sports car with an amazing gear box.
I’m sure there are several reasons as to why it’s not a made to order option, but I would pay extra for a reliable performance MT Honda Accord. I’d turn to Acura but they didn’t even make the TLX type S a manual.
@@rd4809 you’re probably right. The accord coupe, v6 MT should not be a “sleeper” car. Should’ve been front and center as a performance model with a couple other tweaks. Ah well
I have a 2013 accord coupe v6 6mt. Love it
If it makes more power on a dyno its marginal. I would race any manual in my 6 sp auto (sport mode) and win easily
I want this exact make/model/color. I still drive my 2005 accord coupe V6. I think I’ll wait to see if used car prices continue to drop this year. Lovvvvve this car!!!
I own the 2017 Honda Accord Coupe V6 Touring (60,000 miles) (last one made / same car but crystal black pearl) and it is faster, with more features than essentially every car on the road. It is truly a gem and so slept on in all facets. I live in Mass and have yet to see another one of my exact car to this day. I feel like the V6 Touring Coupe’s are VERY rare and are nicer / faster than a lot of more expensive luxury cars. Also, the self-drive often works for minutes at a time and people are blown away it can do that. Then their is distance pacing, automatic headlights / high-beams, etc., all ahead of their time, underrated features. I am very OCD m, and five, six years later my car still looks brand new, especially the interior. I plan to keep the car forever. Thanks for reading. Any other opinions?
YES, have the 2016 V6 Touring (58k mi from new) and have driven the quicker new turbo. Not as jerky and appreciate the linear V6 output as my daily. Also, I drive F80 M3, Model 3 LR and newest addition Highlander XSE, so that linear pull is more than enough and satisfying as non-turbo. The Accord, pound for pound (considering cost), is as good as any of them 💯
I was driving my 2017 touring v6 yesterday and just now realized you can switch to normal cruise control Instead of that pain in the butt adaptive cruise control. I heard so many people complain about it that I just figured you couldn't defeat it .😂
I'm driving a 08 v6 high spec, and for a car that cost me 7k, super worth it. Accords, especially a v6 is a great car, just get a 2014 and bellow to not get completely ripped off
I own a 2015 Accord coupe with a 4 cylinder- I just love that car! I have been driving for 50 years and it's the best car I have ever owned!
Also in my opinion, when you drive this car, you can feel Hondas' racing experience.
I have a 17 Touring sedan and it’s an absolute brilliant car overall. I love the coupes but I have to say, the sedan is equally as sexy( if not more IMO) Reminds me of an E class Merc. Great review!
Also, I just recently put a Takeda intake on mine and you’re right, it sounds glorious
I think the front of the sedan looks so much better but I’m not sure about the back 😅

The best part of this car is the remote start and the side mirror camera. The remote start turns either the heater or the ac depending on the temp outside. That way, every time u get in the car, it's at a nice temp. The side mirror camera is amazing. It's so much better than a blind spot light. My only complaints are the visibility being pretty bad, and the seats aren't very comfortable. Probably the most uncomfortable of any car I've owned. However, I never want to get rid of it.
I have a 2013 Accord Coupe V6 76k miles in white and absolutely love it. I had a 2001 Accord Coupe V6 in white prior to it as well and sold it at around 150k.

I own a 20’ Type R, but I’ve always loved the 8th/9th gen accord coupe V6.
I have a 2012 V6 Coupe, and I love it. It’s not perfect, but it does everything well. The build quality is great, and the engine is such a gem. The only thing I dislike about it is the transmission. In its automatic mode, it’s lazy most of the time. You have to put in manual and use the paddles to get the most out of the engine. Overall, I plan on keeping it. I rarely see V6 coupes on the road these days.
Yup you're right transmission is the only downfall but as you said fortunately the paddles do a great job.
I also had an eighth gen accord coupe with the v6 and I agree, it is such a great car! Might have a six speed manual transmission and it was so much fun to drive, I would suggest looking for the manual transmission in the future, you will not be disappointed!
@@MeynMotorGroup is there a manual mode for the 2016/17? On either normal or sport, or does it auto upshift at some times?
Yes, there’s a manual mode for the 16/17. If you downshift with the paddle, and don’t engage the “S” gear from the shifter, the transmission will auto upshift. However, if you select “S” on the gear shift, and pull the paddle to downshift, you’re in full manual mode. In this mode, you’re on your own to upshift. Honda actually allows you to shift at redline, however the transmission will downshift for you automatically when you get to lower speeds. This only happens if you neglect to downshift.
@@ajlee6933 perfect, thanks for the detailed response. Exactly what I wanted, and would have been a deal breaker without paddles. This, Q50 hybrid, Elantra GT N line, is300/350 are on my shortlist. Here’s to hoping I get into dental school and get to reward myself!
Imo this 9th gen accord v6 touring before the refresh in 2016 was one of the hardest looking accords Honda made, compared to the 16’ and 17’, there was less gaudy chrome and gloss black in the interior and exterior, and overall more modest design, but also convenience things like hard buttons and volume knobs and less noisy 17 inch tires.
16 and 17 are wayyy better looking than 13 through 15.
@@soulerflare7 initially, but as years pass, the pre-refresh 9th gen are the more elegant looking ones
I wish more people bought them so that Honda still makes them! One problem is the price on new Accords is so high, that the target market is just slightly out of range and most targets buying used. Honda must know this.
Get one of these with a 6-speed manual, those are super rare!
Unicorn car for sure
I love this gen especially the manual great vid !
Paid $20k for a 2017 V6 Coupe with the same interior, 33k miles. Incredible vehicle! I rarely see them, too.
Have a 2012 ex coupe v6 love it bought it cash wish I had the money for this version though. BUT I have no regrets 0 car payment is a very nice feeling to have.
I have an 8thgen V6 and I always say if I ever get another Honda it’d be a 9thgen V6 or a TLX aspec or type s. I just can’t agree with Honda for taking away the V6, so the 10thgen is completely out the picture for me. It’s just too large to have only a 2.0t/1.5 i4 option. Hopefully Honda makes a 3.5 comeback soon. I’d even be ok with a 3.0T option like the q50 Infiniti.
Awesome review!

1. 2022 Tesla Roadster (the sports car)
2. Tesla Model 3 Long Range (the daily driver)
3. V6 2017 Honda Accord Coupe (the sleeper)
The v6 accord coupe is a great platform
Still have my 2015. Runs like a champ
It’s not just the v6 that’s nice Honda makes the best 4 cylinders imo they are very powerful for what they are and very reliable I would love to have this in a manual
Saw the title and the picture and gave a thumbs up before even watching lol
Looks just like mine! Alabaster Silver 16’ Touring Coupe with black leather and all the Honda Sensing. Amazing car for a daily, also plenty of fun when you put your foot into it.
My 08 V6 coupe was one of my favorite cars ever. Super fun on the low end, and vtec to top it off.
Sold it for an s2000. Hondas are the best
It would sound great with a catback exhaust system and a hybrid racing intake.
Best accord coupe for sure with a v6 manual
That with a 6MT would be total perfection.
Agreed
Noticed you mentioned a rattle on the passenger side. I bought my 2016 Accord EX-L V6 new and soon started hearing a small yet almost constant rattle on the passenger side. It had me baffled as I emptied the glove box, the console... even the trunk. Checked under the hood, under the passenger seat, etc and still could not find that rattle. Eventually, Ohio allowed us to remove the front license plate... and alakazam, the rattle was gone. It had been a combination of the plate and the mounting bracket. BTW: good review, thanks
I got this car about a month ago, 2016 in Pearl White Orchard with 9600 miles on it for $28k. Touring trim and it's great, the only things I want to do to it is get the HFP kit installed onto it and replace the taillight halogen bulbs with LED.
I've also been looking into getting coilovers to drop it an inch but I'm not completely sold on that yet.
Patiently waiting for a manual to pop up
That would be epic but in this market I think dealers will def try to price gouge on unique manual cars like that
That automatic trans is a deal breaker. I had a 2014 Accord EXL V6 6MT. Loved the car, but honda really screwed up not adding an LSD. That car would wheel hop and torque steer like crazy from a dead stop.
My only other complaint is the V6 has a timing belt, and not a timing chain. It can cost $1,200-1,800 depending on the shop, and it is not an easy job. If you ignore the maintenance schedule and the belt breaks you will have a catastrophic failure because it is an interference engine.
I want this car I promise myself by next year I will have this car
Honda should have kept the V6 as an upgrade in Accord. I have a 2017 v6 4 dr w/ automatic When I want a new car, I need to go to Acura to get a V6. I have owned a number of Accords over a 20 year period. I always trade them in to get new features. I still love it.
Is a great car, deffenitly got to get it in manual though! Fun fact the 2015 is the last 9th Gen with a volume knob and no driving assists, I personally think 2015 is the best year of the 9th Gen accord hands down.
Manual would be great!
As a '15 6-6 owner this makes me smile.
The 2017 Accord Coupe V6 will always be one of the most fun vehicle to test drive. 1). Chevy SS 2). Genesis Coupe 3.8 3). Accord Coupe V6
Just did a Chevy SS review!
whats your opinion on the accord v6 coupe vs the genisis 3.8?
@@d0p3fo05 Genesis was a little bit faster & more fun on corners; 5.2 sec to 60 mph vs Accord's 5.6 sec according to major car reviews. It had Brembo brakes. Bucket seats hugged my body/frame nicely without sliding. But Hyundai name reliability was unknown for me, and it had no backup camera. Quoted $30k-32,000 OTD brand new.
Accord Touring V6 coupe had the Honda reliability from family experience. And it had back up camera, and the Lane Watch blind spot camera for lane changes to the right. Less expensive was a plus, quoted $29,000-29,900 OTD when it was brand new. Of course, it didn't have Brembo brakes nor did it's seat keep me from sliding during the corners.
Both had cramped rear seats even for much shorter people, and it wasn't suitable for baby car seats.
Sound system - I didn't really test for either vehicles.
Trunk space - Genesis Coupe 3.8 has 10 cu. ft vs 2017 Accord Coupe's 13.4 cu. ft.
Ultimately, if I didn't have kids nor married, I would have bought the 2017 Accord Touring Coupe V6 brand new overall because ultimately, the deciding factor is that it's exterior design won for me.
Definitely going to consider one of these when I have the finances/credit score some day
