• "Honda's tag line for the Accord during its media introduction was "The Benchmark. The Standard. The Accord." That's a pretty aggressive statement, considering the Accord's primary competition, but after my experience with it, it's clear the car remains one of the few family cars that competitors will measure themselves against, and one that consumers will use to measure other family cars.

• "All new, the 2008 Honda Accord impresses with what you don't see, don't feel, and don't hear. There's next to no learning curve to operate it, no weak spots in the powertrain, no unnecessary or intrusive noise, no bad manners in how it responds to driver direction, next to nothing bad for the environment, and no excuse for not asking directions since you can do that without winding down a window."

• "With its latest redesign, the 2009 Honda Accord sedan has lost some of the sporty edge once attributed to it. In particular, the body rolls too much in corners, though we admire the Accord's nicely weighted and extraordinarily communicative steering."
