Default Hey Newbie Here

Hey HondaAccordForum members,

This is my first post here, I came across the forums as I was researching Honda Accords. I have a few questions and I am hoping the experts around here can help me out. I have my mind set on buying a Honda Accord in the next 2-3 weeks and i was wondering if anyone has had any good experiences with dealers in terms of pricing/sales and services in the FL area (preferably close to Tampa/Orlando/Ocala).

Also is it a good option to pay more in order to get a Honda certified pre-owned vehicle or sticking with a regular Honda with lower mileage would hold more value? I am looking at the 04-07 models in the EX/EX-L trim. Although if I were to get a pre-owned vehicle then I could only get the 06/07 model. But even within the 06/07 models there's a significant price difference between the CPO & regular vehicles.

Lastly, are there any known issues I should be aware of while checking the cars, I've owned a 2003 Honda Civic LX and never really had an issue with it but since this is a major upgrade I am sort of nervous

Look forward to your replies
Thanks.

Welcome!

I think CPO is worth the extra cost for many buyers. It comes w/ an extended warranty, where most other purchases are "as-is".

I think the 2004-2007 Accords are very reliable. I've been very happy w/ my 07 which has delivered about 29mpg commuting and 30+ on trips. Only scheduled maintenance so far.

good luck
