Default 2013 Accord Sport

I have only had my car a few days but intend to be active on this great forum. Fortunately I have not had the radio or phone issues that I was reading about on this site. Knocking on wood. I bought it through the Costco program.

I bought a 1983 Accord used, kept for about a year. Bought a 1990 EX new and logged 134,000 miles on it. Also bought a 1999 LX new and put about 80,000 miles on it (should never have sold it). All were great cars and very reliable.

I drive many highway miles so I should be a good "guinea pig". So far all is good.

I came from a 2006 Camry SE w/99,000 miles. Great car, it was a bit quieter (after replacing OEM tires), and had more "cubby" holes and storage. It was slower (but plenty for me) and not as stylish as the new Accord.

The new 2013 Accord technology with the phone and radio has a bit of a learning curve but I am starting to get the hang of it. My phone (Droid Bionic) works well with the car but I haven't figured out how to get my texts yet. The Honda Hands Free site indicates I should be able to with this phone.

I am impressed with Pandora and the handling of the car so far.

Looking forward to learning from all of you and helping where I can.

Schoeney, have you been able to solve the texting problem? I also have a Droid Bionic ans haven't been able to get it to work even though it is on the compatibility list.

I have the settings on in the audio system but it stays ghosted out when I try to use it.

Everything else is working great.

Thanks!
