#1728 of 1787 Re: Accord Coupe or Solara? [jmiller417] by ezshift5 May 23, 2007 (5:29 pm)
Replying to: jmiller417 (May 22, 2007 3:47 pm) .......haven't driven the Solara, but by reputation the Accord is more of a driver's car.   ....417 is right on the money.   1. Both have world class reliability (you won't spend much time screwing with the dealer)   2. Based on 80k miles on a Solara V-6 and 35k on a HAV6 6M: the Toyota is great on the highway straitline.........same for the Honda, plus its' got no bounce, bob and weave when pushed on winding roads.   HOWEVER, noise intrusion is greater and the suspension transmits more vibration and shock energy on the Accord.   .......so there you have it. Different strokes.............   best, ez....

Replying to: beechjet21 (Jun 22, 2003 2:13 pm) Similar problem on my 2003 Accord Coupe. AC would just quit. Sometimes it would work again when you restarted the car. Dealer just about tore the car apart for three days trying to fix it, finally deciding it was a weak battery. Replaced the battery myself and all is well again. Haven't been too impressed with the service techs at my dealer.

Replying to: pete81284 (Jun 19, 2007 4:16 pm) The best place to ask would be in the Real World Trade-In Values topic.
#1732 of 1787 Accord coupe vs. 2008 Altima coupe by oldfarmer50 Jun 23, 2007 (4:41 pm)
The word is that the new Altima coupe is going to eat the Accord's lunch. Any truth to this? Which car has the best power, handling and looks?   As long as I'm asking, where would you put the Pontiac G6 coupe and the Mitsu Eclipse in the mix? Replies to this message: oldmansi (Jun 25, 2007 2:18 pm)

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Jun 23, 2007 4:41 pm) well, I dont know about eating the Accord's lunch. First of all , we dont even know yet what the Accord will have for an engine or transmission. We have only seen prototypes of the coupe. Honda hasnt released any info on drivetrain. We do know that the Altima coupe has the sweet V6 engine they use in most of their cars/trucks, etc. So it is hard to compare the two without knowing more about the new Accord. Really dont know much about the Pontiac or the Mitsu , Not really impressed with either one of those. Not in the same league as Honda or Nissan in my opinion.
#1734 of 1787 Altima Coupe Vs. Accord Coupe by myfunkycoupe Jul 20, 2007 (6:37 am)
Ultimately, I think it's going to depend on taste. I drove a fully loaded Altima Coupe 2.5 on Sunday and bought a 2007 Accord Coupe EXL on Tuesday. Why? Because I KNOW that the Accord has a better safety rating (so my insurance is cheaper),and is a reliable vehicle.   Yeah, some folks will jump right on the Altima in year one. I decided to let time show me if the car is REALLY the second coming that folks are saying it is. Replies to this message: dandi (Aug 02, 2007 5:28 pm)

Replying to: myfunkycoupe (Jul 20, 2007 6:37 am) How much did you get your EXL Coup for OTD? I also got mine on 7/31.
#1736 of 1787 Brother's gift... by mrvent Aug 02, 2007 (6:56 pm)
Got one through my brother... The gas mileage was very disappointing. The EPA estimates 24-34 miles per gallon. I never got better than 28 mpg even on the highway. Typically, on mixed driving I only got 24 mpg. Acceleration was better than expected, quite a lot of get up and go from such a small engine though.   The front seats were very uncomfortable. I'm not sure if this is due to the fact that I am tall, or if everyone gets a terrible backache after only an hour in the car.   There is a lot of road noise.   When it was cold out, the dash/windshield and the Honda window regulator made a rattling noise. Never could figure out exactly where it was coming from.   The interior of this car in very pleasing to look at. Mine was silver with all black interior. Expect the black to show every little piece of dirt though.   I would have kept this car for a lot longer and probably continued to enjoy it, but with a 2-door link a baby on the way I had to upgrade to something bigger.

Replying to: mrvent (Aug 02, 2007 6:56 pm) I'd love to know what was wrong... the driving style or the car. My dad had a 2005 car similar to mine, and averaged about 4 MPG lower than I. He drives a lot more aggressively than I do (doesn't coast to redlights, lots of highway passing - not content to set the cruise control at 75-80 MPH).   I average 29 MPG in MIXED driving, and driving 80 MPH with A/C on and three people I get about 35 MPG in my '06 Accord 4-cyl Auto. 40 MPG isn't out of the question when you take it to 70-72 MPH on the highway with no A/C (i've done it on two seperate occasions, and 37 MPG is about average for interstate driving for me).
