I actually like the way the car looks.I think its one of there better designs.The rear and side profile looks great and the front I think will age well.Dont see why this particular model is controversial
One feature I feel is essential and not a luxury is memory seating. If you and a partner are more than 6 inches different in height, then climbing in the low seat with their seating prefereence set can be very awkward or uncomfortable. I opted for the EX-L partly for this feature and partly for the higher gas mileage due to the 17 inch tires.
@@user-nu8tr5dv5t hey, thank you! I think for this generation and on the 2 trims I like in the current line Silver and Black on Sports trim. Black, Urban gray, Silver and Red on touring. I’d stay away from white for sure and I’m saying this because I’ve owned a touring in white color for 8 months lol. I’m personally not a fan of LX and EX trim in general and EX-L and Sport-L imo are over priced. So if you’re buying one I’d say if petrol then EX and if hybrid then Sport or Touring whichever you’re comfortable with in your budget.
I bought a Honda Accord Touring and prefer the rims hands down over the Sports rims. Just my personal preference. There's no right or wrong choice. Originally I was going to get an Audi or Lexus and got the Honda and saved myself $24,000 in the process without compromising too much on technology and amenities. I also got the trunk spoiler because I like the look.
@@EdfromCanada we very much ended up doing the same thing! I’m glad someone else also did what I did haha. I have a question for you: do you think if I blacked out the alloys would it look good or will it make it tacky? When I virtually did em it was too dark lol.
@@user-xj4tt5ki4l I can relate to that sad face cause I had a white touring too lol. I traded that car in 2 months ago tho. But if you got the sport trim I still think you made a great choice cause it’s the best bang for your buck imo
The problems I find with the 2023 Honda Accord: 1. No All Wheel Drive is available 2. No heated steering Wheel is available 3. No spare tire is available 4. No XM Radio. Hopefully, by the time 2025 comes around these deficiencies will be resolved. We are not talking about a $10,000 econobox here, This Honda runs more than $40,000 with taxes.
I wouldn’t necessarily deem them as problems but sure as missing features perhaps but again depending on individual preferences. 1. For AWD you have Toyota Camry, Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy 2. Some manufacturers offer that as an add on package and yep Honda doesn’t for the accord, 3. Spare tire is standard on non-hybrid Accords(LX and EX); you gotta fit batteries somehow 😅, 4. XM can still be streamed thru app on accords. Lastly, with inflation if we compare the sport trim level from 2020 which costed $27,935+tax which with inflation today is equal to $31,486 and the current msrp of sport is $32,545. At the end of the day it all comes down to individual preferences because it’s your money and you should decide on what’s best for you🥳. And today the car that no one really likes or buys which is Mitsubishi Mirage starting at ~$18,000 brand new so take that as base for anything I suppose and compare the rest haha.
Wow no Sirius XM? I actually use that in my 2019 & 2021 crossovers. I wouldn’t buy without it. Honda really busy be trying to push people to their CRV & Pilot to make more money. They purposely went low budget in the CRV and Accord and even the Civic in many ways; I guess they know their cars will sell regardless at a high price. I can’t support it. I’ll stick with a hungry, scrappy company like Mazda. I lease the CX-5 and CX-9. I have a 2016 Mazda 6 in the garage that I own. I love their cars. Affordable and nicely finished.
@@2004cyrus I would just use the Sirius XM app. We already have an account for our other car. The App in CarPlay is essentially the same thing. The only thing you can't do is access it when you don't have a cell signal But that's not nearly the issue it was years ago when satellite radio first came out. Or if you would use it so much that data would be an issue.
I have the silver one and OMGOODNESS I’m in love getting a lot of heads turning and asking about it

Well said, Sir! I too agree but I also feel like everyone has their own perspective so if people don’t like it, that’s also okay :)
Well it is lol. You didn’t mention the short- comings. Everyone agrees. Honda kind of made some odd deletes.
@@2004cyrus I too agree with the bogus deletion Honda made lol
If your someone who never liked the Accord,,you are going to knock everything about it.
@@stevenpeluso7670 that’s true cause one can always find all the reasons to keep disliking the car haha
I love this hybrid trim. Sharp car !
I like this Honda accord it’s slick and elegant most ppl don’t that get language design
I agree, it's like they took the old design and cleaned it up.

damn, that's a good looking accord! wish they would sell them in Honduras :(
My personal vote for worst Accord designs were the 2007-2012 designs. I like the 11th generation design.
Thanks for the great review, what do you think of the color? What is the best color on a Honda Accord?
@@user-nu8tr5dv5t hey, thank you! I think for this generation and on the 2 trims I like in the current line
Silver and Black on Sports trim.
Black, Urban gray, Silver and Red on touring.

The infotainment on the 12.3” screen does include Alexa. You scrolled through it when you said it’s only on the touring 😂
lol yeah I didn’t realize that until afterwards 😂. It’s on all 12.3’s haha just not the Google built in
Do you like the Sport wheels or Touring wheels better? I struggle between the two honestly as I have a Touring myself as well.
Sport! I like them even more than the fully blacked out Sport-L wheels.
@Cartalks100 they all ugly to me....the best rim is on the ex trim in my opinion.....I
@@digoravas1986😂”they all ugly” but I love you found a design to still like haha

No heated seats or steering wheel for over $32,000 that's not cool👎🏻👎🏻
I got white :(

@@edr4973 oh yes I guess that would absolutely work! I should have thought of that: thanks Mr Ed
Do you come to every video to comment this ?
No one is buying black
I don’t disagree lol but I still like how it looks tho
