If Honda only satisfied 1/2 of its purchasers in general, it wouldn't still be in business!

My wife just bought a 2009 accord and I will tell you the seats are terrible. Hard as a rock!! This is an EX-L, looks good, handles well on all roads, if you can stand the seats. Dont believe me just go to Edmunds and check it out. Wish I had, but she loves it and its her car so.... I'll buy my own and not share hers. Just my 2 cents.

Dansdad,
I got the Accord '08 EX-L V6 and felt terrible with the "hard rock" driver seat for the first 2 or 3 days. Now, I got used to it and the seat leather became softer. I feel comfortable now. I guess Honda built them to last.

I am hoping it will work in but its not really on the sides but mainly where the top seat meets the bottom. It's like there is no padding at all. Also I read the '08 got great reviews on Consumer Reports. Maybe they did something in '09. Dave

Seat used to hurt my "butts" and back for the first couple of days. Now, it's good. Car handling is tight and it's much better than the older Accords V6 EX-L I have in term of power and almost other aspects. As a friendly reminder to you, tires for this model will be a bit expensive. I checked them out yesterday.

I think the seats do take some getting used to as they aren't sofa-like as in the Camry... I for one would rather have a slightly less comfortable seat then a bad car such as nearly all Chrysler products (excluding some Jeep models). Just my two cents.

I know...and I agree the Accord is an excellent car its just I'm amazed Honda didn't do a better job on comfort for '09. I have a '97 Accord myself with 235,000 miles and it's much more comfortable. Guess I just expected better.

My mom has an 08 LXP sedan, and uses a small back pillow sometimes... maybe something such as this would be of help...
I find the seats in my 09 EXL-V6 coupe seem more comfortable than those in her sedan, did you try out the cloth seats as well ?

No my wife wanted leather. I'm for cloth but like I say it's her car, and thats what she wanted.
