2017 Honda Accord Coupe V6 (1 Year Owner REVIEW) !!

[@Iriscal]

A couple of years ago, my old college beater Corolla was totaled, and on a lark, I bought a 2015 Accord Coupe EX-L V6, automatic, San Marino Red except with a different trim in the front. I fell in love the instant I put it in S and floored it - it's SO POWERFUL! It's now one of momma's precious babies - alongside my 2016 Shadow Aero.

My wife’s 12 v6 starter started grinding around 80k finally I did that rotate the flywheel and replaced the starter we both loved it!

[@Drive315]

Thanks for watching and subscribe, yeah hopefully mine stays good. Only like 28,000 miles on mine now

[@rivervisual7802]

I have the same car , but a Touring model. I absolutely adore it! I added the Borla axle back system,and it sounds great. Mine is stored for the Winter,now.

[@Drive315]

Mine is used all year round, kinda a shame that i have to drive it in the salty snow. What is your winter car?

Yo, Drive 315. Enjoyed the video. I've a 2016 EX-L V6 that I purchased new, it is the same color [in & out] as your 2017. While shopping, I decided that the Sedan was a better fit for our needs, however I will say that the Coupe is very stylish. Your trip-ometer resets when you fill the tank? My car does not do that. I agree that the performance of the stock V6 is outstanding... indeed, I've had compliments from passengers that seemed surprised that a Honda can jump-ahead like this. You're correct, it does feel like more than just 278 HP, of course this vehicle does have plenty of torque. I live in a metro area and I use the Eco feature when running errands and driving around town... it has proven to save gas. The highway sweet-spot for my Accord [without Eco] is 83 mph, the V6 purrs and will still jump if and when the throttle is pressed. Even at 80 mph and above, the car gets 30-34 mpg on the Interstate - depending on terrain. I noticed that your review was posted in Jun. of 2021. I'm writing this on 04/04/22 ~ our Accord has almost 24K miles. I replaced the original Michelins at 21K as they were starting to lose grip on wet road. Noted that you put the 2021 value of your Coupe at $20K, you may want to recheck that as their resale has gone up.... my 2016 is now worth $25K and the dealership is hounding me to trade-up. However, like you and yours, I love my car; I don't think that I'll ever trade. I have thought about upgrading the audio system, but that is a project for another day. When I hit the lottery, I may be in the market for an Acura TLX V6 SH-AWD Type S... and then keep the Accord as a daily driver. Too bad that Honda no longer offers an AWD... but that is their ploy to get us to buy an Acura. Wishing you and your Accord many safe & happy motoring miles

Great review dude. I’ve got a 2017 GTI DSG but I miss manual shift and looking at a 2017 V6 6spd accord

[@Drive315]

Thanks for watching and subscribe, you’re gonna love the accord v6 manual. Mine is auto but i know the manual is a ton of fun and has that overpowered feel to it (good thing). Honda make very nice manual transmissions

Sounds great

Great review, & how’s the transmission doing?

[@danjoe22]

wait until the cylinder deactivation feature (vcm) bites. You might not be so jubilant after that.

[@Drive315]

Thanks for watching and subscribe! What will happen when it bites?

[@danjoe22]

you could experience oil consumption and subsequent engine misfires, your engine mounts could fail, and it may damage cylinder walls and piston rings. Do a search to find out more and how to bypass vcm.@@Drive315

Question? Would you buy a 2017 sedan, touring with 44k on it for 23,000 yall?? V6 engine

Let's be honest, you'd rather own a Civic type R

Thats like stepping down from a horse and onto a donkey… Honestly the accord is higher quality, has remote start, runs on regular gas and still will beat a stock type r in a race. If i was to upgrade id get a newer accord 2.0T

[@eternallogic6394]

@@Drive315 the automatic sucks on your Accord. The type R would smoke your car. Your car is only good the first 3 gears. The rest of the gears are for fuel saving. Manual Accord V6 beat the automatic every time
