2001 Honda Accord Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
Honda Accord showed a newer, sleeker look for 2001, with a broad hood in the front and new taillight design in the rear. Make no mistake: this is still the reliable family automobile. No "sport" performance in this vehicle, yet great acceleration when needed in tight traffic - along with excellent gas mileage. The price is right; the interior comfortable for family and/or groceries, and driving is almost effortless. This car is available with a six-cylinder engine (automatic transmission only), though the four-cylinder package is more than enough for everyday usage.

The condition of this car being a one owner vehicle was excellent. You will not find a 23 year old vehicle with 100k miles in such good condition anywhere. Best purchase I ever made. Apr 30, 2024

Honda's are know for their excellent fuel economy and lasting power. They are guaranteed to 5000 miles, their maintenance costs are comparatively low. They absolutely live up to their reputation. They are costly to purchase, even the older models, but that is because they are such a good buy and they are so reliable. I would always always always recommend buying a Honda, you really cannot go wrong. I've owned mine for 13 years, it is coming up on 300,000 miles and is still running great! Amazing car.Feb 07, 2014

I have always Enjoyed the Ride quality of this car it has an extremely smooth suspension, great handling, while still giving the option for that quick take-off when needed. In addition to the ride; the plush leather interior gives you extreme comfort no matter what seat your sitting inFeb 04, 2014

It is a honda so what more can you say! very RELIABLE and LOW maintenance cost if anything does ever go wrong wth the vehicle. Great gas mileage for a vehicle that has a V6 engine. the ^ CD changer is a plus as well. :)Dec 12, 2013

Great car for work or for a family. Lots of room inside, as well as good cargo space in the trunk. Car only needs minimal maintenance and runs smooth. Keep it forever if you treat it well. Hope to continue driving this for many more miles, it already has 209,000 now!Nov 12, 2013

I believe hondas are the best cars around. This one in particular feels great when driving and has enough power and speed. Hondas run and last forever, my last one reached 250000 miles and when I sold it it was running perfectly. I would buy this car if I had the chance again.Sep 14, 2013

It is a Honda which means it is reliable, will run forever, does not have many bells and whistles, and gets the job done. Mine is a gold, EX, without leather, with a 6 disc CD changers. There is plenty of trunk room, and plenty of room for 4, sometimes 5.Mar 02, 2011

It handles really well, only problem is if you floor it. It's quite old, so it deserves care. The brake pads need frequent attention, but otherwise I love how charming it is. Very versatile: both sophisticated and simple, depends on what the occasion is. I am never out of place on this one. Aug 21, 2010

My new car that i bought from my sister with 95k.
Performance: Quick and Smooth pretty much sums it up. V6 engine is silent at idle but makes a nice intake howl when the tach sweeps past 3500rpm and when the VTEC kicks in there is a noticeable surge of acceleration.
Build Quality: at 105k the interior looks like it has half that mileage. A couple of squeaks and rattles but not as bad as my old camry, Very tight construction overall.
Appearance: I added a rear spoiler, fog lights, and moonroof visor and the car still looks sharp to this day, even tho the design is from 1998 its still a very nice shape. And it looks sporty with my honda accessories. I think this one looks better than 2003-2005 sedans.
Cost of Ownership: Needed some maintaince last year because of age but has never left me stranded. I am concerned with the weak automatic transmissions but mine is the original so im hoping it will be fine. Gas mileage is 18 mpg city and 26 highways which is not bad for a V6.
Fun Factor: Steering is very precise and give a very good amount of road feel, unlike toyotas that have very numb steering. Engine sounds fantastic when revved and is super smooth all the way to the 6300 rpm redline. Drives much smaller than it is and i enjoy racing people at stoplights ;)Feb 23, 2010

My Honda Accord sedan v6 2001 passed 400001 miles last week, yes 400001.
The engine is still very smooth and quite almost like new, it does not take
oil between changes.
Of course my next car will be Honda Accord.Jan 10, 2010

Accord EURO R! A great 4 door sedan with above par performance. I had raced a Skyline turbo on the street and I beated it by very little. The Recaro seats are so HQ. This is a great 4 door choice for non-turbo car.Dec 30, 2009

Not a very reliable car! The lx model is just a waste of time and money. I'd recommend buying the ex model it has the same features but they are better for example the speakers the engine. When there is high milage the car is not very good. It is not a gas guzzlerDec 26, 2009

I bought this car used from a dealership and wow!,
even though it's 8 years old it looks and drives as
though it is new. it had 143,000 miles on it when i
got it. the motor a 3.0L V6 has tons of power that
allows not to get bogged down in traffic. the seats
are nice all the little things that honda dose to
make the car what it is are right where you want
them. nice cluster and smooth trany even if its an
auto.
one thing i could use is a roof which i did not get.
this would allow the car to seam bigger than it is.
with a nice set of winter rubber im sure this will be
able to get me from the mnt and home with no
problems. this car is the reason honda is what it is
today.Nov 20, 2009

Best car i've owned yet. the engine note becomes wild and addictive. Sometimes it's hard to believe that the Accord is a front-wheel-drive car. incredible front-end grip. so few cars around that offers such a fine combination of pace, practicality and phenomenal grip. and as for reliability? its a Honda, says enogth.

The acceleration is moderate. It has 180 horses for a 4 cylinder. The braking is excellent with anti-lock brakes. It handles good for a Sedan! Well its a Honda so it is build to last. The gas mileage is great and so it is very Economical.Jan 15, 2009

It's a love hate relationship. I would love to replace it, but it just won't break. 3 years, 75,000kms and nothing but regular maintenance. It never give the impression of being a fast car, and it isn't. But comfortable, Capable, and all around the most reliable car I have ever owned.Dec 28, 2008

Great solid all around car. Great mileage, great handling, great resale value. I couldn't ask for a better car than this one. I've had it for a year now and its hasn't given me any problems. Before this I had a 1990 Honda Accord and it has 220k+ miles and its still running.Dec 28, 2008

This was larger than my 2004 Accord. It was very stable and agile for 4 cylinder car. Internal volume felt like a very large car. The MPG in a city driving was around 23 and highway was around 29/30/ Dec 24, 2008

This car is a amazing car! Mine has over 105,000 miles but it runs like it just drove off the lot. The performance great for a four door car, and it has great fuel economy. The stock sound system is amazing! Great car to customize with after market parts! I recommend this car to anyone that want a good reliable car that will last forever!Nov 25, 2008

Acceleration is okay for a four banger. Transmission can sometimes be in wrong gear. Usually pretty smooth. Good build quality, not bad looking, and pretty comfortable. Good on gas too.Jul 12, 2008

Good quality car, lasts long time with very little trouble. Has good fuel mileage, lots of options, and a powerful four cylinder engine. Excellent acceleration from stop however, poor suspension makes for a bumpy ride. Can come with 6-disc CD changer, good option but very noisy, sounding like its chewing on the disc. Nothing special about the room it provides, pretty average.Jan 21, 2008

Accord 2001 transmission issue
Hello, My car is a Honda Accord 2001 EX v4, with an automatic transmission. When I start the car and put the transmission in D I get a jerk, when I start driving the others shifts are pretty good unless i have to stop quickly, then a get a jerk again ,the problem appears to be worse if I have a hi electrical demand (lights, A/C, etc.) then the problem disappears after 15 or 20 mins of driving, and everything works perfectly until the next cold start. should I look for a new transmission?
