Honda beats a 5.0?

I bet you'd be wrong. Porsche builds some of the best performing and best driving cars in the world. I'm not a huge BMW fan, but they deserve respect for a lot of the products that they build as well.

I suppose nobody ever told you what assuming does.

No that was loaded and you proved my point. we can agree a mustang is no where near porsche standards? agreed. Thats fine as many of us don't want to shell out the money for that extra standard. WELL GUESS WHAT!? not everyone wants what the mustang has to offer either. Just because its not what works for you doesn't mean its a useless piece of shit. plenty of people enjoy the creature comforts and reliability they get for the money, not everyone is out for 435hp, some want gas mileage and an easy to drive, safe car. just to clear the air that is absolutely not me, I would never buy one. but for my daughter, wife, mother? of course thats better than my stang, they would wreck it in a heartbeat.

agreed in the context of performance cars, but saying they are worthless pieces of junk? get real

No, it wasn't "loaded", and you had no point

Nice try attempting to save face.

The GT350 certainly is near Porsche standards, and exceeds the performance of many Porsche vehicles for less money. That's not discrediting Porsche at all; that just shows what an incredible job Ford has done with the GT350. Obviously we don't "agree" lol.

Nice try...again.

Car and Driver likes the Honda Accord, at least tested as v4 / manual. I am sure they would like v6 / manual even better. Too bad Honda doesn't offer that in a sedan format and sell it for $25

4.5 star
6-speed manual
DOHC 16-valve inline-4

Honda also gets a lot of top scores by IIHS crash tests, so there is a lot to like about it

I'm glad you posted this crash and safety stuff. This is what I'm talking about. I want a FUN car. I would actually love to have the opportunity to delete the airbags and other heavy, government mandated crap off my car.

I realize the latest Mustang has a high crash rating, so it's not an area where Mustang loses. However, it has absolutely zero to do with my buying decisions.

IMO people who like Hondas buy cars for very different reasons than my reasons. Mostly reasons having nothing to do with fun, excitement, etc. It's just another boring, bland and slow appliance out there on the roads. If that's what you want, great, but there's no comparison with a car that is actually enjoyable to push the start button on and listen to the engine fire up.

The only "piece of work" here is you and your comical post. The points you mentioned are the bare minimum for a vehicle these days. A Honda Accord is just like a Camry; it's a boring appliance that is good for absolutely nothing. And no, Honda Accords are not "good in the snow". That's the biggest joke I've ever heard. You also can't take "sweepers" at 80MPH in any Honda; you only lying to yourself to try and justify your purchase of a worthless vehicle. I'm sure your fellow Americans will thank you for sending your money to Japan instead of buying the better vehicle from an American company.

If you think Accords can go 200K or more, you're on drugs. Honda has the worst transmissions in the entire automotive industry, and they've been that way for the past 15 years. When the New York Times notices a trend and publishes an article about how bad Honda transmissions are, you know they are garbage. The majority of Honda models don't make it past 75K miles without transmission issues:

Have fun when those Takata airbags blow up in your face and mangle and/or kill you. They are ALL defective, and Honda knew about it since 2004. They covered up the defect for over 10 years, and now they are are simply recalling the bare minimum to make the feds happy. Even the brand new models (like your 2015) have Takata ammonium nitrate inflators. The fact that you are okay putting your family in a vehicle like that and supporting a scumbag company like Honda says a lot about your character; you obviously just don't care.

Wow, this is one of the most idiotic posts I've read in a long time. No need trying to talk sense to you. You are so far gone, you are beyond help.

Actually Honda's have always had a sportier edge to them. For example, Camry's are more plush, whereas Honda will have a firmer ride with better handling.

My GF's Accord Sport handles and corners VERY well for what it is. It's not a heavy car and has a sport oriented suspension & wheels/tires. It feels more nimble and more balanced then my 2012 GT and has way less brake dive. I love how when you come to a stop the car just stays totally flat. It's a really well tuned suspension striking the perfect balance between comfort and handling. The only thing I've felt that was better was my sister Porsche Cayman. That's obviously on a whole other level handling wise and has a magical blend of handling/comfort.

It really is a great car, my GF absolutely loves it. She's been in all kinds of cars and used to have a TA, and this car is her favorite by far. I love taking it on trips. Everything about it is nice and easy and comfy and roomy, and yet is still fun to drive. The interior is really nice too. Attractive layout and a lot of soft touch panels, Big display and nice standard features like backup camera, etc. Fantastic car for $23k

Ford can come out and full on admit they're cars are worse than Honda's and he still wouldn't change his position. You can have Ayrton Senna say that no real driver would ever aspire to drive a Ford. He is beyond lost.

I never stated that I agree with the above statements. They were purely examples.

My mistake. But you seam to be arguing awful hard in that direction.

Exactly the response I expected. You got proven wrong and so you resort to name calling; you have no facts to back up you argument because it's all nonsense.

Have fun when those Takata airbags explode in your face

Now I've heard it all...

You think a piece of garbage Honda Accord is more "nimble and balanced" than a mustang GT :lol:

Seriously, you need to lay off the drugs; your entire post is absolutely comical. And if you truly believe what you just wrote, then you are just plain sad :tsk:
