2000 Honda Accord Reviews
“Prime Example Of What A Family Sedan Should Be”
While I listed that I "drove" this car I've actually had a good deal of experience with it as it was mom's car and I had plenty of access to it up until I moved away.
First, in terms of performance, while my Civic is quicker to stop and more manueverable the Accord balances these out with much better speed with having around 60 more horsepower, giving it a proportionately larger boost in power than size and weight. There have been times where after driving my car for a while I'd drive the Accord and not be watching the speedometer close enough and find myself at 80-85 at the point I would've been finally reaching 65 on my old Civic.
The quality I had to rate it a notch below "Solid" because while it is still a very reliable car I've lost track of the number of recalls it's had. If you're looking to buy this year Accord I can't stress enough that you should reserach the recalls and make sure they're fixed before purchasing a 2000 Accord. Once they've been fixed you have absolutely nothing to worry about though, unless the car's been horribly abused in which case no badly abused car is a good buy anyway.
For appearance, "Gorgeous" is not good enough. The family car was silver, and when parked next to far more expensive cars I can honestly say I still though the Accord looked nicer. In my opinion it's a family car with more visual appeal than most luxury or sports cars.
Once again, "Love it" was not good enough for an impression. It's the roomiest and most comfortable mid-sized car I've been in, it has a very efficient engine that pumps out some nice speed an acceleration without pumping too much gas into the engine, and while you certainly can't weld the hood shut and drive it the rest of your life like Honda's commercial claimed it's still a very reliable car. For newer cars I may be most impressed with Saturn's showing, but for it's generation I'm willing to bet there was no better midsized car built than the Honda Accord.
“Great, Fun Car That Is Also Practical”
Technically, my parents own this car, but it's mine to drive (for now at least). we bought it
used in august 2007, and since we have had only one minor problem with the alternator,
but that was easily fixed. the engine feels and sounds great for 65,000 miles. The steering
is nice and tight and the car corners beautifully. The sound system is nice, and the
speakers work well. The sunroof is great for a warm day, although not too hot. The seats
are very comfortable to sit in and provide the right amount of support in the right places.
The doors are wide, which allow for great sightlines when chnging lanes, turning etc., but
don't work out so well for parking in tight spots. The backseat is somewhat small, but is
adequate for children and small adults. Since we bought the car used, there are only really
three things that i would change. I would get a standard transmission insted of the
automatic that this car has. The car would look great with a spoiler on the trunk. Also,
white paint is a pain to keep clean, especially in the winter. Overall, even though this car is
eight years old, it drives beatifully and there are very few cars i would consider trading it
for.
“A Great Family Car With Good Gas Mileage And Lots Of Storage.”
A great family car with good gas mileage and lots of storage.
I like my accord, although, sometimes I wish it was a little more peppy.
I've owned this Honda Accord EX V6 for about a year. It's really what you would expect for the top of the line driver car from Honda. It's sturdy, reliable, and gets pretty decent economy for it's size.
