Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler 2007 Honda Accord 2.4...what to be vary of?

Joyce has never had a new car, either. It's not really a "her or me" thing, it's always about the business. Sometimes, I take clients with me to a shoot, so we want the business vehicle to not be an embarrassment.

I want her to be able to buy a new car, though. To go through the process and have that "pride of ownership" is a nice feeling.

Hmmm. Empowerment trumps generosity. I gotta use that one more often.

Since you said "I take clients with me to a shoot" (Must be hard on keeping return business.) I've decided she needs a Jeep!!! The roll bars make the perfect place to mount that giant camera of yours for "Drive By Shootings....".

Murph: You stay away for too long. Always in need of another good "Post Pouncer."

Consumer Reports Car Edition, which just arrived in my mailbox, gives the 2007, 4cly, Accord it's highest rating.

In most categories (engine, transmission, drive system, fuel system, suspension, climate system, power equipment, audio system), less than 1 percent of respondents reported problems.

Between 1 and 2 percent of respondents reported problems with electrical, paint/trim, body integrity, body hardware.

Between 2 and 3 percent reported brake problems.

Overall, the '07 model was rated more reliable than the '08, '09, or '10, 4 cyl Accord, although they were all rated better than average.

And I thought this thread was about Chrysler Cirrus.

Nope, he bought it from new.

Yeah, just read the April Consumer Reports, and as Jack indicated, that Honda was much better than average for reliability in all areas but brakes, where it was still good.

I used to work with a guy who had 540,000kms on his Prelude and to my knowledge was still being used by his wife when he bought a newer car.

Mark, 540,000kms is about 12 miles.
