nah just village people.......

elshanAutos:

Most of what you have said here is absolutely and terrifyingly wrong.
1.The accord has better fuel economy than the camry.

2. A corolla is NOT cheap to maintain compared to an Accord (OEM parts)

3. Accord has more front leg-room than both cars.

4. Accord has better build quality than both cars.

5. Accord has a better sound quality than both cars.

6. As for resale value, don’t forget the accord cost less to buy..

As for your last paragraph, I am confused.

elshanAutos:

Agreed & verified. Once did 120mp/h in my former 2007 Accord V6. No vibrations, no nothing. Sweet all the way!

the boss.. I want switch enter v6 oo... I need more speed.. Hehehe

captainking:
thanks bro.. I comfortably do over 140 steadily on my baby boy.. And I don't even feel the car being light or loosing balance..

captainking:

elshanAutos:

The 3.0L V6 in the 2007 Accord is impressive. While it’s the same power plant in the older models, it has a higher output. The hybrid accord offers even more power, but I have no personal experience with it. If you’re really serious about performance, get the 3.0L V6 coupe with the 6 speed manual tranny

elshanAutos:

120mph is 200kmh though

Specialist900:
carry go! God be with you

Samad805:
yes it is d best one to choose in terms of fuel economy buh not in terms of sportive movement

generalfag:


Why 2005? If possible go for newer cars, old cars tend to have more issues.

I dont believe you....on which road in particular?

Trust me he did it, the boi is not normal

obekediamondfuto:
people of God
this argument comes in different shapes and sizes.....
I personally had to experience both to authoritatively
speak.

accord..... power, beauty, ooooooh speed.... I used the 03 accord v6 and u see what Elshan said... he wasn't joking.

I did 100mph on okigwe abakaliki express... I burst two tires.... tho not at the same time
it's as if the car was begging me to press harder.... Haba even stability... brother it was something else.
interior is something to shout about.... too many gadgets to play with.

that's the good part, I arrived in way lesser time than usual (03 Camry 4cyl)

now the not so good part! parts were very difficult to source in AI we had to get some from enugu.. esp the Belgium ball joints. wasn't easy I tell u....

maintenance is not an easy feat for the Honda... in some geographical locations. Toyota is the order of the day.

resale value nko? if I told u how much I sold it.... u will laugh @ me

Toyota is bland, boring, lazy, slow.... whatever... but the one thing I choose not to compromise, is Reliability... and corolla Comes first before the Camry then the accord... might be different in Lagos and other locations oh....

u can also check out the resale value in naija... it'll hint u beta

ps: I'd rather drive slow, wind down (no AC), get bored while driving...with a strong conviction that I will get to my destination... worst case scenario happens ... one jaguda will be able to fix the car at least to a run and drive state, than cruise and groove in a speedy car with so many toys and carry my heart in my mouth at every sharp turn, or while exiting a gas station or doing a U turn.... especially while driving long distances....

well thats just me sha

It's your village people that are shifting your heart to your mouth. Not the mechanics of the accord

Op get an accord if you're not to particular about fuel economy. It's a far better car in all ramifications and it's cheaper too.

Just make sure to maintain it properly. It won't tolerate as much abuse as a corrolla or camry will.

elshanAutos:

Oh my!

Kingsoul1:
Inexperienced Folks... Only one person made sense here... The rest is rant.. My only problem with EOD is the body it fades away quickly...

obekediamondfuto:


the body fades away quickly? r u sure it's not saclux paint that was used to respray vehicle?

lilkech:
I am heavily biased on this topic so I will just drop my own opinion here and leave.

I’ve been driving accord for 5 plus years now. I have only had that ‘leg pull’ incident twice within a space of 3 days.

The first time was due to the fact that the bolt under it washed away and left it compromised and the second was that I reused the exact same ball joint that was compromised and told the Mech to just thighten a new washer on it (which was a stupid idea). If I had any reservations about the car it was full blown on that week these things happened.

The Honda has an engine which can tolerate abuse far better than the Toyota’s , the parts are also cheaper and last longer. I’ve only changed my rear shocks once during the whole time.

My engine is on its last legs as I’ve been using 20W50 all through. I haven’t been using ac anymore for 2 years now and that’s the only drawback I have with my engine.

I can continue to say stuff about my perceived durability of this vehicle here but I will just drop this important information for any prospective owner of any accord car... try as much as possible to have the below items in your booth along with others at all times. Cheers

obekediamondfuto:


lolz, maybe they are the cause oh.... but I'd rather be @ peace with them if driving a Toyota is the price.... I wouldnt mind@ all.

so op there u have it.... before u get a Honda, go and appease the elders else one day u start ur car and with the gear in park u will hear "kwiiiiieeee" and that's just the beginning... after that one is fixed ur D light starts blinking then u know that u have bought market.

obekediamondfuto:


nice unbiased reaction... I like it!
but one small observation.... parts ain't cheaper

about the joints.... if u no know... u no go know

carry spare OH

I thy no.... no deythis one

captainking:
but I have never used xperience all this problems in my Honda..

obekediamondfuto:


what's ur daily route terrain like?

normal? smooth? extra smooth? Elele highway smooth? Asaba smooth? sagamu standard? jakande estate standard or ejigbo standard?

heendrix:


going for them cause they more stronger with a good fuel efficiency. but if I may ask why you gave that advice tho
