 Comments

 Favorite feature:

Overall comfort of the interior

 Least favorite feature:

Dealer wanted a $3000 markup from MSRP.

 Advice to buyer:

Wait for prices to drop.

 Detailed review:

I test drove the 2008 Nissan Altima and Toyota Camry prior to the Accord, and the Accord beat them both hands down. The appearance, comfort, and ergonomics remind me of a BMW 3 series, though the performance is comparable to other vehicles in the class. I like the 190 hp 4-cyl option which takes quite a bit off the price, gets decent gas mileage, but is better than the 170 in the Altima or 158 in the Camry. I will buy once the prices come down a bit.

 Also considered:

2008 Nissan Altima
2008 Toyota Camry
