Detailed review:
Test drove 2 models of the Accord, first an EX 4 cylinder with XM Radio and then the EX V6 with Nav/XM Radio. Both cars were peppy and a fun drive. I drive over 90 miles a day so I wanted some luxuries - heated seats, xm radio were requirements.
For the price I got much more than I had hoped for - dual heating/cooling zones and voice activated nav system. Car doesn't require premium unleaded fuel which was a plus and gas mileage should be better than peers.
Nav system was really cool but could not get the system to understand 'Find Nearest Gas Station' command. At that point it changed the channel on the xm system. It did recognize other commands. Should be fun to play with anyway.
