Whats your favorite detail about your accord?

[omiloc]

I just noticed last night (after 1300 miles) that right next to the gas gauge there is an arrow pointing to the left indicating which side the filler cap is on. Ive never seen that on another car... a little thing but very cool. I just saw one of those Hyundai commercials where they forget which side it is on and thought "hmph... ill never have that problem"

[Neiklot]

"just can't seem to get it right today....just can't seem to get right today..." haha saw that commercial the other day and thought it was kinda humerous.

personal fave is the mean and nasty look of the car when looking at it dead on...it looks really pissed and scary!! :thumbsup:

[krazyfiend]

front end aggressiveness.

[monty]

interior.. nuff said.

[beer4799]

Drives like a german car. Very tight and handles well. '08 Accord is one of the best values out there.

[turbodave]

INTERIOR!! Bold new exterior styling!!

[Left-Laner]

I am completely sold on the interior, however, I kinda wished the speedometer and the tachometer traded places -- I drive with my left hand above the steering wheel and makes it easier for me to see my speed without having to move my arm.

Not a big deal. It's a great car. Honda really kicked the competition in interior styling!

[native.texan]

It turn heads.

mike.

[Sylv]

Front end is like a mitsubishi lancer, rear end is like a g6, inside is kinda like a bmw/lexus and side looks like a lexus, nuff said but still... its a sick looking car (Sedan rear end is like a bmw [but the indicator lights are flipped])

[bruceleroy]

the front end and interior

[dash242]

Crease that runs down the side of body and like neiklot said the expression on the front end .
Car looks like it's gonna kick your ass if u make eye contact, lol.

[kopimon]

My favorite is the auto up/down windows and moonroof .. I know it's been around for ages, but coming from a cheapo Ford, I don't take such subtle features for granted

[zZz LoNeLy zZz]

my AC. my old car would shut off when i turn on the AC so everywhere i go now i take advantage of my AC

[JamieJam1AIM]

my fav would have to be the Navi.. I told it on voice command to go to hell... it responded

Would you like to lot a route home? I was like.... WTF?!!!!!!!! LMAO!

[justeddie]

There so MANY things but I will stick to the little details (and not get general)

- The way the silver trim that frames the doors and windows slants back toward the front of the vehicle at the c-pillar (one of my favorite cues from my BMW glad to see it in the Accord).
- The silver trim surrounding the tachometer and speedometer with the constantly lit markers. Looks like a nice watch.
- The oval shaped exhausts

[dlj11166]

I love how it "sits" and how the whole outside looks different. It seems that if we took the badges off, nobdy would know it is a Honda Accord. I am lovin my coupe to death. :banana:

[giltibo]

When it comes to exterior styling, Honda batted one out of the park with the 8G Accord Coupe. The interior is just the cherry on the sundae. (The center stack is a bit less intuitive for new Accord drivers but hey...)

Front end expression. Dash illumination.


EDIT: And most recently, the way it sounds! (See signature) :thmsup:

[NightHawk4]

The head turning appeal, I always let the compliments go to my head. The projector beams were the selling point for me even if it doesn't have HID's yet.


And that 99.9999% of all hondas have a gas cap on the driver side of the car.

[uscratch]

Yes, front end just sold me within a second. Funny the other day when I was driving home, I looked at the rear view mirror. There was a really good looking car right behind me. I said myslef "wow, awsome car"
Of course that was another accord coupe following me. She passed me by and gave me a smile.

[Revcomm]

Spacious interior :thmsup:

[ksills]

I agree soooo many things, but what I thought was the most fun was the programable door locks.:biggrin:

I had this same problm when I first started driving my car haha. My maxima was the other way so I was used to that. Very minor nuisance.

[AznX TL]

front end aggressiveness.

x2 i love how wide the fenders are.

[whitefury21]

i love how big it feels inside.
not cramped at all like my old car

[newbie2honda]

"All windows down" feature with the remote

[jaytotheson]

mine has to be the trip computer on the nav system. coming from an infiniti fx where i only averaged about 14.8mpg at most, i love to stare at the 23.0mpg i'm getting now. :drool:

[FZ6biker]

Finally the accord has gone EURO :naughty:the exterior styling is so euro with the front headlight beams and the rear wrap around lights and the lavish and roomy interior. Best value on the road no matter what trim.

[Jomma]

Too many to list. I also like the fact that even the guy on the bmw 540 is checking out my car.

[vioaltec]

A bmw for half the price ;)

You're not the only one that loves the Dash/Interior Illumination. Ever since I've been in one of my friend's C-Class (Last Model), I've been obsessed with having white illumination.

I also like...

Front End (It looks pissed off)
Being able to open the truck and roll down all the windows with my Remote
Lumbar Support
I4 Engine Purrs like a Kitten

I'm digging on this too, one of the pics i took and posted in the gallery is of the dash illumination at night, can't get enough of it. :)

couldnt agree more, the engine sounds amazing for a 4cyl, it really does purrr. even on my previous cars having an aftermarket intake the car never sounded like that at low RPM's. and tlak about starting the car, e\stock exhaust sounds great at startup, really nice rev

[AznX TL]

it does sound nice from low revs, especially slowing down in 3rd gear.
but it doesn't sound as nice as the Si :D

[ANDRADA]

My favorite part about my car is its anonymity. It will wear off soon, but I like the fact that no one has any clue on what I'm driving, and it looks good enough to be a six digit car. We've all heard the "is that a ______" with the blank being filled in with any make/model that costs at least twice as much as we paid!

[AgentWashington]

The aggressive front end and the rising character line

[shogun]

The whole Car!

[Naut2Bad]

Hi Everybody, I am new this forum, I enjoy seeing others comments. Not a notable item but I like the fact that both the drivers and passanger windows have auto up and down.....the rest of the car is fantastic but that liltle item stands out.

[FredBear]

interior,beautiful...
exterior,gorgeous....turn heads every where i go!
and im talking about nyc where people see every car you can think of on a daily basis...
My PU--Y count has gone through the roof with this car!!! LOL...seriously,...lol
hands down the best car I have ever owned,
Feels like i'm driving a 27,000 dollar benz

[pmcjr]

Now that I'm used to it, the radio, AC, etc controls in the center column. Looked very busy at first, but now, it's very ergonomic.

I just noticed last night (after 1300 miles) that right next to the gas gauge there is an arrow pointing to the left indicating which side the filler cap is on. Ive never seen that on another car... a little thing but very cool. I just saw one of those Hyundai commercials where they forget which side it is on and thought "hmph... ill never have that problem"

Lol, thats been on lots of cars that i have seen, BMW has it, Acura has it if i can recall [old ones ofcourse]


My Favorite part? Engine, Powerful and loud when having a lead foot, super quiet and economical when having paperweight foot and VTEC! ^_^ and the body is VERY intresting, if I chose between the two, probably the body, then the engine :thmsup:

[dawgs72]

I just noticed tonight while backing out of the driveway how bright the reverse lights are it's like a second pair of headlights back there.

[nsystem]

I don't know if it's just me but the baffled pannels on the door upholstery, and how they connect with the swooping door handle, kind of reminds me of a wing. Maybe hints at the Honda wing logo that they use on their motorcycles and such. It's a stretch, but I appreciate subtle details like that about the car.

[MySilver_08]

I just appreciate the the whole damn car! Inside out, the first day I saw this guy pulling into the Hand Car Wash with a Basque Red Sedan, I heard the gods sing "Haaaaahhh". Went and got one 2 weeks later after much extensive research.:naughty:

[iaccord08]

I like a lot of features on the 08 Accord coupe. One that stands out for me is the steering wheel. It's the right size/thickness for the driver (me). I like the feel of it. The second thing that I am impressed with is the engine. I do pop the hood every so often and marvel at the engineering that goes into making this machine go. Love this car!

[Osiris_x11]

Hopefully not already mentioned before... I really appreciate the fwd sliding motion of the center-console cover/arm-rest.

Telescopic-steering would've been heaven-sent! :D

(as you can tell, I like to 'lounge' in my driver's seat)

[MySilver_08]

Oh yea, telescopic-steering wheel is a plus!:D

[pjbe]

My favorite thing: It answers me when I talk to it! I do like the auto feature on the passenger window.

[jang859]

I like the doorhandles..


ok if I had to say something else, the headlights on the coupe look like evil eyes. My girlfriend made that comment when I drove right behind her one night, she said it was creepy.

[Apple47]

1) Hands free Bluetooth phone connectivity
2) All windows down using the key fob

Forward sliding motion? I have no clue what you're talking about... could you enlighten me? are you talking about the tray inside the center console?

[Viper897]

I love the look of the front end, also its my first car and i got the one I wanted so overall i like the whole thing.

[Kupo]

the projector headlights by farrrr, and front end :)

[sonitex]

Forward sliding motion? I have no clue what you're talking about... could you enlighten me? are you talking about the tray inside the center console?

I believe he's referring to the cover for center storage/armrest console (with the extra power outlet). It slides forward/backwards to accomodate the comfort of your arm.

My first car under 30k with pneumatic struts for the engine hood!! Also, the trunk door sound insulation makes it look so much neater with the trunk open.

[MrBigE]

Telescoping steering wheel FTW! Being 6'4", first thing I do when I get in a car is move the seat ALL the way back, and usually end up reaching for the steering wheel. Not now! W00t!

Also the Bluetooth/cellphone integration. I use that almost DAILY. I dig the dialing via Navi as well - "Dialing the number received from the navigation system"

[Osiris_x11]

Thanks to another member here, I just re-checked for telescopic-steering... and it's actually there! I never noticed it before, I simply was just using the tilt-mechanism/motion.

Time to lean'backkkkk! :D

[zZz LoNeLy zZz]

whats this telescopic steering? all i know is that you can tilt the steering wheel up or down. enlighten me please. i want to lean back also hehe

[zZz LoNeLy zZz]

one thing i like is how big our trunk space are considering its a coupe. i got friends and family member asking me since you got a coupe, what about storage space. i pop the trunk open and they were amaze.

[kopimon]

Steering wheel can move towards or away from you .. next time you adjust it up and down, give it a pull ;)

oh wow. now that a neat feature i would have never notice if i didn't subscribe to this topic. i'm going to try it out when i head out to work. thanks

That's what she said! :naughty:
