 Favorite feature:

Luxuruious, comfortable, easy to learn, and use interior

 Least favorite feature:

No real-time fuel economy display

 Advice to buyer:

Test drive the Accord, if you don't like it then you are looking for the wrong type of car.

 Detailed review:

The bang-for-buck ratio winner is the Honda Accord EX V6. I was about to buy a Mercedes C320 but changed my mind after test driving the Accord. The Accord EX V6 with XM Radio is truly a mid-level luxury car. The adjustability and comfort of the drivers seat was superior to every other car I test drove. The acceleration of the V6 is also impressive; however, you have to go deeper than you might expect when you step on it. Braking is outstanding, perhaps a touch too sensitive.
