What's not to like about the Honda Accord? Through several versions over the years, the Accord has developed a strong, loyal following - and for good reason. It's simply an excellent product, near faultless in many ways.The overall layout is intelligent, efficient and thoughtful. From the neat packaging to the ease of operation to the nice touches such as chrome inside-door handles and the soft tick of the turn signal flasher, you can tell the Honda people have tried very hard not to have anything on the car that would be in the slightest way annoying. And they've succeeded. The addition of the V6 only makes it sweeter. The EPA fuel economy numbers for the V6 are not yet available, and it will probably use a little more gas than the 4-cylinder versions. We think that's a small price to pay for such a pleasant driving experience in such a well-packaged, finely executed 4-door sedan. As you can gather, we really like the Accord. And we also like V6 power. If you feel the same way we do, you'll gladly buy a little extra gas to gain the performance, response and smoothness of a V6 engine in the Accord.
