2005 Honda Accord EX-L 4 cylinder.
Summary:
Feels like a luxury sedan without the luxury price!
Faults:
Small rattle noise from front passenger window/door frame. Read an earlier review that mentions cleaning the top of the window out. Will have to try that because I am a freak about my cars.
General Comments:
Owned an Odyssey and was VERY displeased with all the things that went wrong with it. I sure hope that was an Odyssey problem and not a Honda problem.
Very impressed with the EX as it has all the creature comforts with less price.
I also own a 1998 Lexus ES300 and this Honda has much of the same "luxury" qualities of the Lexus.
However, I wish the sunroof had an automatic button that, when depressed, would open the sunroof in one push of the button instead of having to hold the button down. Odd.
The front seats are somewhat "narrow". By narrow I mean that the large cushions on the sides of the back seem to push on my sides. I am not overweight so this seems odd.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

The price you paid for a car is amazing, people are beginning to forget that humans make these car parts and we all know the type of mistakes humans make. Surely you had an issue with the bearings, however Honda replaced it and in most cases Honda parts do last. And yes I know in some cases the quality has fallen, however the prices for the replacements parts (aftermarket or OEM) are fairly reasonable.
