Last week we traded in out trusted 2002 Honda Accord on a 2008 Accord EX-L V-6.
Totally love the car:
Pollished Metal Metallic
4-Dr Sedan
Gray Interior
Everything except Navigation.
I am involved in other forums, decided it's time to be more involved with the Accords. Looking forward to learning from the experts. Looks like a great site.

Reading the specs on the new Accord, I too would like one but I don't feel like forking out 30k for one at this time. :)

Just picked up a new 08 Accord EXL V6. Best one yet IMHO. They've restored the classic great front visibility, ride is smoother, quieter andhas alot more road "presence". Sound system is wonderful. Anxious to see how easily I can getr those claimed 29 mpg!

When we bought our '07 EXL, we test drove an '08. We loved the ride, size and style, but unfortunately a comparably equipped 2008 would have cost ~$6k more than the 2007- easy choice for us.
Good luck with the Accord. I think Honda has another winner with this one.

After buying many Hondas for years, I got lucky this time. My company bought this for me to use. Otherwise the cost would have put me out of the game. For those that can take it on, I am here to say it is worth it.

Thats a good color for Your new car, bit of a change from your older Honda... Were I live Honda put on a full spread to introduce the new line up of 08 Honda's for customers who have accords. I was pretty impressed by the improvements, the best change was Automatic V6 models getting 43m/gal (CND) on the Highway. I also liked the Navi System, but way to much extra green for one....

WheelBrokerAng,
Yes, I do have a 1967 Chevelle SS.
While the old iron is cool and fun to drive, the Honda has it beat in handling and interior creature comforts.
Well so far the '08 has exceeded my expectations. The handling is far superior to the '02, performance is much better.
All in all we are very happy with it.

I have a 2008 Acoord Coupe EXL V6 6speed manual. I love this car. Very fun to drive and looks great. I prefer the look of the coupe over the sedan but the sedan is still nice and has potential.

Hello Everyone!
I just purchased the new 2008 Honda Accord, fully loaded with the Navigation System. It is truly an awesome ride.
I got the silver exterior with the all black interior.
Its truly worth it!!!
