Funny how 30k is now considered budget
Canadian. You can get the GLI for under $25k.
Yeah but it’s Canadian.
Inflation baby, it barely affects your pay, but it affects all products in a major way.
@@affinity3281 25K USD, $32,000 and up in Canadian dollars, only Jetta under $25K is a base 1.4 litre. Go to VW Canada and do a build.
@@bufunga What difference does being Canadian make except that all GLI's are loaded for one price, unlike in the States.
Oooh, two interesting cars for people who don’t want to spend ridiculous money. On it!
Broke bitch
I mean a fully loaded accord cost almost $40k
@@perkhere2252 It's all relative, but that's not crazy money for a new car. Serious money, but not crazy money. But yeah I'd personally sooner spend $40k on a used Audi/Lexus than a new Jetta/Accord.
@@MaadScience lexus, fine, Audi? lol. Ask around how long before you have to spend $2K on regular maintenance of modern German vehicles. If you get 1998 Audi Quattro, it's a great engine, and everything is serviceable, get a newer one from 2008 and onward...good luck. Still, Audi IS better than BMW and Merc, maintenance wise. Only get new cars if you plan on selling them after 3-4 years, before they start to cost abysmal amounts for maintaining.
@@perkhere2252 Well I bought the 2.0t Sport for $28; the touring was $32k
I had my GLI for a good 5 months now and I love it. At first I was worried about how it would feel as an everyday car but that quickly changed to feeling good because the more expensive accord sport 2.0 was my second option.
Accord can seat 5 in comfort. Huge interior space
Our(Edmund's)2018 Honda Accord EX-L stickered for $30,865, including destination. Over the course of a year, we added 13,302 miles to our odometer. In this condition, the Edmunds TMV Calculator valued the Accord at $23,815 based on a private-party sale.
That works out to 22.8% depreciation, which is slightly worse than the fleet average of 22% average. The depreciation level is even worse when you consider that the majority of our cars pass the 20,000-mile mark. Edmund's longterm Accord
Norm T I guess when you based all your information off the internet and paper and not real world scenarios, I’m a sales manager at a dealership Honda has by far the best resale value and VW is one of the worst and that is a fact
@@jayritch5191 denying Japanese cars drop in value is like a salesman talking with mouth full of samples.
Norm T everything drops in value Honda just drops slower than other cars
@@jayritch5191 Honda has a bank set residual of 56% on a 12/36 lease, where Malibu is 53% for the same period. On a $20K vehicle that is about $600. But advertised prices for Honda Accord and CR-V are $5,000-7,000 more than a Chevrolet Malibu or Equinox.
When I saw the gloves I thought something completely different was going to happen.
yea I thought he was about to make his pipes make noise
get your mind out of the gutter :)
I was expecting him yo use bleach lol
prostate exam?
Oh, it happened. But, James was unconscious at the time.
Im a vw fan but kudos to Honda for still having a manual!
Jonathan also has a manual shift in a Honda Passport.
@@jonlosito2004 not in the US though. 9-speed auto only.
@Warm Soft Kitty just picked up my manual GLI, I've missed going through the gears. Its enjoyable and more engaging as a driver.
@Warm Soft Kitty ide rather be slow and have more fun 🤷♂️
@Warm Soft Kitty we are just not going to come to an agreement on this
Excellent review, with great humor... you guys nailed it!
Why does the accord have a more luxurious looking interior than the TLX
Jandin Cheatwood tlx braised on older gen
all of the Acuras are sadly very dated. The new TLX is being revealed in 3 days though, so I am excited to see what they did to it.
It has a better interior then the $150k NSX
It’s out now and seems pretty up to par
Your right that’s why I wanna get the Jetta GLI instead because of the interior is by far better
This vid helped me decide to pull the trigger on a 2021 gli and i dont regret it one bit. Had my gli for 5 months now and its amazing. when i wanna go fast, i go fast, when i wanna go on curvy roads in the mountains, i go on curvy roads and take them turns with confidence. When i wanna go to the beach, i cruise to the beach and get 40 mpg.... YES 40 MPG. Its all around the best sedan money can buy for the price and its not close. It has the performace, the eco, the looks, and the tech (especially if you get the autobahn trim like i did). Plus it has hugeee aftermarket support because it has the same drivetrain as the holy golf gti.
I gotta say that i own the 2019 jetta execline in alberta. I love the thing so much. It is seriously so much fun. Sure it doesn't have the same HP and Torque values as the GLI, but I think that it is just as good if you want some performance with all the little luxuries. You guys helped me choose the jetta as my next car so thanks and keep up the good work you boys do.
I have the 2020 Honda Accord sport 2.0 and I’m coming from a 5 series bmw wagon but the accord is a pure monster man especially on the highway wicked fast if you know what your doing and I’m always hunting camrys they hate the accord 2.0 lol only thing I hate about it is that everyone and their mother has one 🤦🏿♂️
I think the Accord has a really nice look to it. They always catch my eye in traffic, especially because I'm always checking to see if it's a 2.0 lol. But what helped make the move to a GLI instead of an accord is also the fact that more people have Accords, owning a car and being the only one of it's kind sitting at a red light makes it feel more special, oppose to being at a red light and having the same car as an elderly couple and a stressed out mom with 2 crying kids in the back seat.
Hunting Camrys? Wickedly fast? How old are you? 12? School playgrounds are full of 'My car's faster than yours, my Dads job is better than yours, my Nike's are better than your Adidas' childish crap. If you want to prove how good you and your car really are, go to a track and see how you fare against supposedly inferior cars, in the hands of someone who really knows what they're doing. You might learn something. 🙄
moderafo54 lmao I def feel you I was looking looking at the vw cc I like that one a lot but I wanted a v6 and they were hard to find and I kept hearing the v6 version have a lot of issues
I have the 2.0 I see the 1.5 way more often than I do the 2.0
Here in South Africa... not much of the Accords on the road. LOVE IT! Feeling more unique :)
Everycar I’ve owned with piped in engine noise I coded it off immediately Can’t stand it.
Aaron Visco respect
Past golf R, previous m235i
Which is as simple as using the custom drive mode, no OBD coding required.
@Steven Soco actually "piped in" is the incorrect term here. I don't think most people would have an issue with cabin design that facilitates hearing the true engine and exhaust notes (and some way of controlling the volume of that). This is not that, though. The VAG Soudaktor is essentially a speaker that creates its own frequencies independent from the engine and exhaust directly within the cabin itself.
While this sounds ridiculous on the surface, it's really not as bad as it's been made out to be, and as pointed out, can be user controlled. Hardly the end of days.
@@aaronvisco13 I really don't mind it in my M340i. I think anything that gives it some volume makes it better for me, since I came from a straightpiped 335i lol
Watching all these reviews makes me feel like I actually have money to buy a car like this
I had this exact dilemma a couple of months ago! I ended up choosing the accord 2.0 manual in the still night pearl (it looks awesome!). I didnt know how to drive manual and it was very easy to learn in the Accord. Clutch is light and the 6 speed is smooth. I love the car for everyday driving. Just enough juice to get in trouble but comfortable for cruising. Both of them are great car bargains and having a manual makes it feel sporty and fun.
Jarrett Camera same man, I have the exact same car they're showing, and I'm feeling great 👍
As a longtime VW and Porsche owner, I salute you both and say I’m glad you’re happy with your choices and also that you’re driving a manual! Do what makes you happy, and here’s to affordable fun cars.
acchaladka i’ll drink to that! Affordable and fun is the way to go. Enjoy your car man
Ayyaz Mahmood everyday on the road feels great man, i have no regrets about my purchase whatsoever
I have the same model/color combination. The still night pearl paint gets lots of compliments. I've had it for over a year(11k problem free miles) and I love it. I agree that it has enough power to get into trouble. But I was curious and found a used flashpro on ebay for $400 so I have been running a hondata tune for the last 6k without any issues. I ran stage 1 for 3k, and currently run stage 2 with tc(so fun), but i leave it in eco(stock tune) 95% of the time. Stage 2 is definitely overkill when i'm hauling my kids around city streets. Because I find it relatively easy to break the tires loose, a will get some more aggressive tires in the future.
I like that you guys state your preference in no uncertain terms, rather than sitting on the fence.
So I have had my 35th Anniversary GLI for three months now and it has been brilliant. Wonderful driver's car that is affordable enough to still be able to gas her up and yes at over 6000 miles on the odometer I am also getting about 31 mpg. However I do feel the DCC or adaptive dampeners on my version really dose improve the handling a shocking amount. Yes that fake engine and overly quiet exhaust sound is very disappointing so much so that I had a local muffler shop hack off my resonator and the two small mufflers and had them replaced with a single glasspack in the resonator location. Now she sounds about perfect, just a wee bit more than a stock GTI or Golf R in open mode. Plus considering the $1600 lower price than a GTI at all trim levels this was the much more affordable performance option for me. I do plan to start posting ownership and autocross videos very soon. Now that I have been leasing an S trim for 16 months and also have been enjoying my new GLI so much I think VW might have a lifetime customer here. Great review as always guys! Thank you...
It's brand new, so you've been pretty happy with your VW. But if you plan to keep it for a few years, you're never gonna *buy* another German car again.
Please report on the first and then all other issues that appear with your VW. If they do. Usually at around 15-30,000 miles
Awesome but does it rattle?
Yes it's cheaper than the GTI but you'll lose on the back end, just check the residual value on the lease calculator, a sure telltale that the value down the road will be less.
@@AyAy008 Nonsense, I've owned German, Japanese and domestic, just make sure you do the maintenance on your German car and you'll be fine, at least that's been my experience. The only difference with a Japanese car is that their engineers know that many people won't bother with regular maintenance and they factor that into their cars so they still run after being abused for years.
Mazda 6, you could've been here if you didn't drop the manual.
timephire yah how hard is it for manufacturers to understand that they want zippy cars with manuals
In the UK the mazda 6 is sold as a manual as 95% of people here drive manuals.
The engine is a let down
Manual? Gtfo grandpa .
MXD lol it’s for enthusiasts bro. You obviously don’t relate
We need an Accord Si.
Mark Rozenberg nah accord type r
Or Accord type r
Damien Chiang You mean Euro R?
HR _McStuff lol
Aren't these basically Accord Type R? They have the type r motor
you guys nailed it. the first comparison between the two on youtube perhaps. SAVE THE MANUAL.
Subscribed! You guys are refreshing and hilarious.
Awesome as usual guys. Made my day. Love the Jetta!
I just bought the 2020 accord sport 2.0T 10 speed AT..Its a beast of a grocery getter!
Go on! I'm in the market for one!
@@MrGonzo2186 got test drive it
Ryan Thackwray is the wheelspin as bad as reviewers say? Does it feel overpowered when you step on the gas at lower speeds? It seems like that power would be awesome on freeway passing though!
@@Ryan57Garr It does have torque steer and wheelspin because it has gobs of torque and a low geared 10 speed.Its a given but acceleration is wonderful.Its a wonderful and fun car no doubt!
Ryan Thackwray lol
I don't think I've laugh this much watching a car review video. I loved it.
I am happy to see that both cars especially the GLI and even the Accord have the manual transmission #savethemanuals
It would be a fun daily!
BASITH PH saaave the manual!!!
BASITH PH I know thanks to Honda and vw for still making manual cars Honda with there si and type r accord
And vw with the gti golf r and gli #savethemanuals
Even the Mazda 6 gave up on manuals.
Bought a fully loaded VW GLI Autobahn after watching this review back in 2019. Up to this day, I still love my GLI. Really happy with my choice between these 2.
I watch your channel lol 😂
I love the trend of two-tone, black and aluminum alloy, wheels. Both sporty and luxurious at the same time. Look so good on this Accord. It's a shame Honda ditched the 2-door coupe and the V6 models though.
That might have been the best intro ever, and there were a LOT to choose from
I just got a Jetta GLI. It’s beyond good for its place. Whenever I put the windows down and rev it, I can hear that turbo spool a bit and it’s great.
Thomas / James - great video and good comparison. (I agree especially as a GTI 6spd MT owner). Here's a suggestion for you on a comparison - Accord Touring 2.0 AT vs Genesis G70 2.0T AT. I think that would be a stellar comparison. You can debate - does the Accord live up to where the luxury brands pick up from the mainstream brands.
I have a 2019 white (35th ed) GLI and I love it. Great value for looks/performance, it's like having a budget audi A3/A4 at 15K less and cheaper to maintain.
I appreciate your honest opinion on the Accord! Good stuff to know. It’s not a sports sedan, but a great family hauler with some punch.
I have Decided that wow I love my family I also hate them and I’m gonna spend the rest of my Christmas watching throttle house reviews so Merry Christmas and thank u Thomas and James
Another awesome review!! I was interested in this Accord manual but the open diff and easy to find youtube reviews showing excessive front wheel spins ruled it out right away. Test drove the GLI manual and liked it a lot. I was fine with the interior but at the end I wanted something more engaging to drive.
The manual in my 2016 Accord is spectacular ! The best I've ever driven, and all I've ever drive is manuals.
Hey you two have a great reviews I always enjoy watching you videos, can you please do a conper one of this to we the Kia Optima SX turbo 2019 please and keep doing a great job thanks.
This is the only car review channel I can tolerate
Can you guys do the Lexus RC F vs Infiniti q60 red sport 400 please, no one's done it and I think it's a fair matchup
How have I missed this channel until now? Great work!
Finally the review what I was looking for !!!
Wow. I love to see you guys get harsh. Also, your editing is masterful (to whoever does it - James??)
I have the 35th anniversary version and love it. It comes with the DCC suspension upgrade which is amazing in sport. It’s so buckled down to the road compared to the SEL or S. The body and rims also look nicer. The DSG automatic is faster than the manual version although manual is more fun.
Has your GLI had any problems yet?
You know who else loves fake engine noises? BMW.
My 1993 325is with a cold air intake and the original muffler sounds brilliant, I wish BMW had stuck to it's roots.
@@davesearle2766 the ultimate driving cough luxury cough sedan i mean machine lol
@@sheflashedus246 They have lost their way for sure
Lol can't believe U went there BMW... thats definitely worst than a woman faking it :)
A loud engine and exhaust is actually a sign of inefficiency, sound escaping loss of power.
But if you think about it, manufacturers want to present a quality quiet cabin. All the harmonic testing, wind tunnel and sound proofing is to reduce external noise. I get it some people like to hear this but most buyers are going to shy away from vehicles that when they make a phone call they have to yell for the other person to hear them.
Honestly I've stopped searching "xxx rev hang" in RUclips for cars I am researching; I just run to your reviews because I always know if it is there, you guys are gonna point it out. Thanks!
Great video. Keep up the great work.
I love how he announced he didn't kill James.
I literally just bought a GLI 35th Anniversary on Friday, partly due to your Tail of the Dragon review months ago.
Can't quite figure out the driving position yet, but love everything else.
Woo nice! Congrats
The best intros of al videos on RUclips 😂
I watch this because you guys are good looking, the content is funny, and the reviews are good.
2020 Si vs 2020 Kia Forte GT Manual? The new Elantra Sport lacks manual transmissions now
No way! That accord 2.0L is my demo! Shoutout! I missed you guys when you guys came to the dealership
Ha! Thanks for letting us feature it moe!
@@ThrottleHouse I couldn't believe it when I was told as I have had watched your previous video's before and it's hard to find Canadian reviews on cars. We would be happy to always help you guys with more Honda vehicle's for review! Reach us anytime!
Lemme do a permanent demo on one of your cars :(
Thx for the great review. Local dealer was pushing me to a used manual accord sport over an civic si. If I'm trading in my outback for a manual sport sedan no point in going for crappy manual with rev hang and not front diff...
Thank Thomas for being so honest.
☺️👌 Good review again. And hello from🇫🇮
Let me tell you ain’t nothing better then waking up and it’s a new throttle house in my inbox 📨. I haven’t even watched the video just excited it’s wed
Rich Mahoney and you don’t even have to wait a week for the next one....
James Engelsman somehow I missed this from you but that’s the best news I got since finding out that Thomas didn’t really kill u
only thing i see "Cambridgecenter Honda" on the Accord
Never seen my tiny area vehicle would make it into a youtube video lol
I just bought a manual gli autobahn,and the gears are quite tall compared to most manuals ive personally driven (90s cars mostly,not many manuals these days) which i find so nice to be able to down shift into 2nd gear at 60mph
I agree that its a good thing that you guys review normal cars, but keep throwing in an amg,rs, m cars now and again just for fun👍🏼
The accord 2.0t sport is, in my opinion, hands-down the most fun non-luxury sedan to drive. It has far-and-away the best drivetrain out there and it stays planted in corners.
indeed and it sucks the manual is gone but the 10 speed auto is insane it is almost perfect
The knob wasnt loose like that on the accord I drove & it was quite enjoyable...not perfect, but enjoyable. Like to see the GLI 6mt lightning lap time...
The lightning lap time has been up for quite some time
James, you kill me with your humour. Love it!
Check out what’s happening to the new Honda Accords now
ruclips.net/video/5w8Y5hKJ6vQ/видео.html
Really like the GLI. Test drive both the manual and DSG last weekend and honestly it would be a hard choice between the 2. I do like the wheels that come on the 35th anniversary edition as I think they give they car a more aggressive look but I just wonder if in 5 years they would look dated. Also like the pure gray color. Very Audi Nardo gray like. Hard to pass on the price as well. I can get the autobahn trim for around 29k US. To get a GTI with similar features it would run around 35-36k. At that point you might as well pony up and get the Golf R.
I have the 10 SPD sport and I love all the gears. Tbh the best transmission especially if you use the paddle shifters
M Fishing I have driven a 8th gen manual and it was nice but this 10spd is gravy compared to other auto transmissions like CVT. If you learn the gears the paddle shifters in sport mode is nice not to mention I live in Houston so driving a manual when I work downtown and spend 2 hrs a day in traffic.
why won't they talk about the adaptive suspension in the GLI is it any good? ,can anyone recommend a review that deals with this specifically thanks
Thanks for the review guys.. those were the ones I was actually considering to buy..
The Jetta should compare to the Civic and the Accord to the Passat
Still loving my 2015 GLI Jetta Autobahn!
@throttle House, did the 10spd feel faster than the DSG?
I have a 08 3.5L V6 Accord. Truly granny driven and was mint when I got it. I love it. Like the review as I would really consider another Accord.
Hey Guys, love all your videos as they are always spot on! Thank you for doing this one as these are the very two cars I'm considering. I already have an Accord 1.5 Touring CVT. My wifey loves it. I was looking for more fun and hoped the Sport Manual 2.0 might be it. After driving the GLI I felt the same way as both sides of guys. Who needs 2 sedans anyway. Lol I'm gonna get the GTI and have my fun! 👍🏻
Good choice!
You have to do a a drag and roll race! Then this would be the perfect review. Great job guys. I’m dying to see how they do from a roll
Gli should take it. Highly underrated power output 😂
Hilariously underrated 😂 228/258 on paper. Bone stock my gti made 226whp 271wtq on 92 octane. Probably closer to 250/280ish out of the box
Great video. Question, can you relatively easy and cheaply get rid of rev hang, perhaps with a tune?
Yep probably an easy fix!
Jetta for me, good comparison overall with good details. You dudes are so effin funny, I look forward to your reviews now as my new ritual.
Got my 19 Accord Sport a few months. No complaints at the moment. Drives great. Owned a VW yrs ago and it was a money pit. VW's make great leases, owning one long term out.of warranty is a different story.
Im in three same boat. I never owned a new vw, but a preowned with low miles and my first car with high miles. Both were complete nightmares. Very fun and expensive to drive.
I really want you guys to review the VW Arteon R-line. I love that car mostly because I currently own a VW CC (the predecessor) and I love that car to death. The Arteon, while pretty pricey, is so worth it in my opinion though.
doug demuro reviewed it recently. overall he said it was a good car
I own a Manual GLI S and a note is that is in custom mode for drive modes, you can turn the fake exhaust noise, Off, but leave the sports settings on, combined with an AWE Track exhaust and you have one hell of a good sounding VW
Got a 2.0t accord sport with 10 speed auto and I love it, haven’t gotten any mods yet but I’m looking to get a new performance intake along with a hondata stage 2 tuner, It’s already pretty ridiculous how it pulls and I can’t wait to put some more power to my wheels
Jetta hands down. I’m a bit bias but I’ve driven both and would take the Jetta in a HEARTBEAT. Accord will probably outlast the vw tho
Sauceman Automotive i like your honesty and look at both perspectives i respect that shit especially in the car community
nooricreations of course man. Too much hate in the car community. Cheers brother 🙌🏻
I don't know about outlasting the Jetta. I just bought a GTI and my main reason for VW was rust issues. VW and Audi are best in resisting the dreaded rust.
recipioct agreed, my mk5 r32 had little to no rust when I sold it. 12 winters in the northeast too.
My God you must be so boring.
I have been 2nd guessing not buying my 2.0 Sport in manual. I guess no more, every review says the manual trans feels horrible. The 10 speed auto is a gem, and love it.
I love these comparisons
Love my gli autobahn. My first car and the car I learned to drive a manual on!
If I went for an Accord, I would get the last gen V6 sedan. Those were the nicest Accords to me. The new ones look weird in the back and I dont trust Honda with turbos. Theyve had lots of issues with them.
Great comparison, love the humorous approach!
Even the Malibu 1.5t is quicker than the Accord 1.5t in Motor Trend handling test:
"The Malibu lapped our figure-eight course in 27.4 seconds averaging 0.63 g through the process and managed 0.84 g average during lateral acceleration tests"
2018 Accord 1.5t only registered a lateral grip of 0.81g versus 0.78 and a figure-eight time of 27.7 seconds at 0.61g
A Malibu 1.5T can be had for US$13,000 good luck finding Japanese competition that inexpensive.
Norm T once again basing your info on internet facts, go drive one for yourself
no issues with the 2.0
As a long time Honda fan and new found VW fan (GTI owner) this is awesome!! I don’t know who I’m cheering for though, I’m torn!!
GolnatP cheer for both. I’ve never owned a Honda, but I admire the car.
I have a GLI DSG and the hang between 1-2 is intolerable without a tune. BUT, that car really gets the good ol' heart pumping when you dig into it.
Great jokes, great music, great review!
I've owned my 2020 GLI DSG for about 6 weeks now, and it is great. No manual, I know, but the DSG is a really good automatic. Mine does have some rattles but they typically go away after 5-10 minutes of driving. Dealer tried to diagnose them and couldn't figure it out. Not really a big deal though, to be honest. The car drives great - fun to take on a back road but still rides very well even on bad pavement.
Those rattles are "normal" according to a VW service manager I took on a drive. Maybe not a big deal to some but I don't appreciate being lied to. No more VW for me.
@@rkgsd all because of rattles? You’re in for a rude awakening. Cause literally almost every other new car has their rattles, especially some of those GM cars
@@rkgsd I had some rattles and my dealership fixed it. There was some loose wiring or something in the door - I can't recall the exact issue. Anyway, they fixed it pretty quickly and now the car is quiet. You may want to google it, it's a known issue.
Nicely said: "Save the GOOD manuals". Seems some manufacturers these days are making bad manuals only to steer people away from them. Modern nannies like rev hang KILL the whole experience.
Nothing wrong with this manual. Try it for yourself.
Use to have a 1997 glx with a stick, I loved it n this one I just can’t get used to the styling wish it was more aggressive looking
Making this decision right now. I like the Dynamics of the GLi better, have ahd good luck with vW's. And also good luck with Hondas. Informative, helpful video.
James my man you need to quit it with the self deprecating humor, you're a king
ASE Heavy Industries a big hunky sexy king oh yes oh yes
Kiss his peepee
I miss the natural aspiration j series from the previous accord
You guys are from Cambridge? Amazing.
I didn't even know rev hang was a thing until I watched your videos. Well, now I know but I wish I didn't... I noticed my Hyundai i30 has a significant amount of rev hang and I didn't notice before watching you :(
1:55 Tell me why does he sound like Patrick from SpongeBob when the get excited I almost picture those two when he laughed🤷♂️
Next, test the DSG GLI vs 10 speed Accord 2.0T
@Mathieu Gosbee If you think it's too many gears, it is. Plus now GM and Ford have 10 speeds as well.
@@MrNemo721 As a GM fanboy, I want to say that GM and Ford co developed a 10 speed auto and put it in their car/truck/SUV BEFORE Honda as far as I know.
@@fredbrochu8322 Yes they did do it first I think. But I will say Honda's is the first transverse 10-Speed that I know of.
@@ryanlittleton5615 Touché
Gaayyyyyy……..automatics are so fucking lame
Yep, in 2015 I bought a Mazda over an Accord specifically due to the feel of the shifter, all else being equal. HATED how the shifter felt in the Accord. Would've liked the space of the Honda, but that shifter killed it for me.
Great video!
I have a 2.0t touring 10speed, I have a hard time thinking of the car as sporty, the active dampers help on the touring over the sport when I went on the first test drive. Its a big comfy daily that just happens to have some quickness around town and back roads. I typically find VW's way more fun to drive. Here's the last thing..... Reliability for me has been much better with Honda's i've owned vs VW's, if you plan on keeping your car for a while go Honda if you want more fun go VW, and maybe you will get lucky and not have any issues. Manuals are fun but drive good manuals.
I hate to say but I imagine the 10 speed is the faster of the two.
Accord touring doesn’t give you a big comfort like Camry does, and you notice the cutting the corner feeling when you go over bumps and hear road noises that are not present in Camry. Also, the seats are super uncomfortable in the long drive. Accord is just a bad bad car that doesn’t belong either of the categories. Not sporty or comfy. Make a better decision next time
@@Warrior11117 The road noise when go over a bump is from the stiff suspension.
M Fishing a big clown.
@@pleco101 lol your comment is low key funny. Cuz I see where you're coming from.
Who was filming your intro, Jason Camissa?
I liked the interior of the accord and no thing more, and everything about that gli is amazing 👌
I have only had manuals my entire life. I decided to get the 10-speed with this. And I am glad i did. I do miss rowing my own gears but coming from Mustang GTs for my last two cars. I would have been upset with the feel of this probably.
