Buying Advice

For 2010, we would recommend getting the EX-L trim of the 2010 Accord. For the added bump in price, you get leather upholstery, automatic headlights, dual-zone automatic climate control, Bluetooth, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, heated front seats and satellite radio to name a few features. This makes the Accord much more premium and comfortable interior which makes it ideal for daily use. We liked the Titanium Metallic, Crystal Black Pearl and Tafeta White exterior paint options for the new 2010 Accord.
