I had a 2004 Accord V6, and it’s still one of my favorite cars. I’ve mostly driven Honda, Toyota, and Nissan because I didn’t have a lot of money. The Accord had a comfy interior, a smooth ride, and was reliable. Even though the V6 is known for transmission problems, I never had any issues and drove it to about 200,000 km.
I didn’t add any options, but it’s probably easy to do since Honda parts are widely available.
It might not be as fast or fancy as a BMW, but I still think Hondas are really nice.
I really love Honda, but I wouldn’t buy a 20-year-old car if I was worried about reliability. I have an 04 Accord, and it has left me stranded a few times.
