Couldn't Have Asked For A Better First Car!!! — Likes: great design, roomy interior, great gas mileage, very low maintenance, the SE trim comes with sexy wheels, high resale value, the V-tech emits a sweet growl when pushed. Dislikes: power is sluggish at times, needs to be driven at higher RPM's to keep up with traffic (It's a Honda thing. They program Acuras the same way as well, only, they come with more power).

Would Buy Another Honda Product — performance: for my needs, performs fine. However, difficult to handle in the snow at times, even though it is a front wheel drive. Build Quality: This particular yr. had problems with transmissions and I needed to get a new transmission earlier than normal. Most other things were normal wear and tear maintenance. Appearance. Other than the dents due to other drivers and shopping cart vs. car it looks fine. Cost:.. good on gas, affordable maintenance fun;,,, yes.. love opening the sun roof on nice days and enjoying a smooth ride.

Good Ol Honda's — Bought this 2002 Honda Accord EX 58,000 miles on it, it was fully loaded power windows, door locks, mirrors, seat and it had a 6 disc cd changer which sounded pretty decent but i put in my aftermarket stereo in. Not to much power though its a 2.3 liter 4 banger didnt expect much from it. Shifts beautifully i owned a 1991 Honda Accord EX Wagon before this and it really shows how far honda has came along. I purchased it for $12k. Great car to drive handles the road pretty well even with the uniroyal tires which im not a fan of. I'm a mechanic and they only work ive actually done on it besides synthetic oil changes is rear brakes at 67,000. Dealer cut rotors and put new pads on, i had to re-cut the rotors at the same time i did rear brakes cause i was getting a pulsation coming down from high speeds. I also get 26.5mpg which isnt bad considering they say it only gets 23mpg i did however put a K & N air filter on. Otherwise a great car really dependable and classy.

Best One So Far — Don't let the 4 cylinder fool you. It's got more than enough power to rival some 6 cyl out there and it has really good fuel economy. The car has 250 000 km (150 000 Mi) on it right now and drives like it was new, no joke. No rattles, nothing loose. Can we say HONDA! They're usually more expensive than the competition, but they also hold their value. Maintenance programs have changed at Honda, which considerably dropped the price of keeping it running good, for example oil changes every 8000 km (5000 Mi). If you want a car that is both comfortable and handles great, it just might be the one for you...

A scrape on the front right bumper, the bottom grill is broken.

A Car With All The Features You Could Want And Beautiful. — My 2002 Honda Accord EX has a V6 with a V tech engine and 200 horsepower. Everything about the car is nice, it has all the options except a spoiler. I totally recommend it: the ride is smooth, quite, and there's power when you want it.

My Blacked Out Honda — Overall good car, runs great no problems and gets good gas mileage, wish i had the v6 version though. I hear some of them have transmission issues but mine has never had a problem so only good things to report about it.

2002 Accord Coupe — The Accord coupe is a good blend of style and functionality. The 3.0 v6 provides quick acceleration while delivering 20mpg city and around 30 hwy. Provided one performs proper maintenance they will be rewarded with Honda's typical reliability. The back seats are surprisingly spacious for a coupe. The EX is quite well equipped with a 6 disc changer, cassette, leather seats, traction control, rear defrost and a sunroof.

Honda Accord — Acceleration is pretty weak, but breaking and handling is fantastic. It has not needed repairs in the two years that i have owned it, and is always completely reliable. Only problems come at the coldest point of winter because it unfortunately lacks a space heater. The appearance is about as standard as it gets for cars on the exterior, but the interior is pretty nice. Massive fuel tank, so I can go about 500 KM before I have to fill up. Filling up is pretty expensive however.

Reliable But Conservative — Build quality and reliability are excellent and it's approaching six years. There hasn't really been a major repair so far. Performance is okay, but the throttle is too sensitive and the steering feels disconnected from the road. Overall, though, the feel when driving it isn't as bad as other cars and is quite acceptable, just not that much fun.
