Review: 2014 Honda Accord V6 Coupe (Manual) 

it's over looked because they are expensive for what they are , people tend to chose the cheaper mustang and camaro for coupes

+Alex Silva to bad the Accord is getting killed off and replaced by the Gen X Civics

+matthew von the accord has 4 models before it even hits 27,000 where the camaro basically starts off at 27,000 with a 4 liter engine they actually cost around the same in the 3.5-3.6L v6 area which is 32,000 but the camaro has more hp rwd in the v6 and has a more aggressive look to it which is why someone might buy it over the accord. The base camaro v6 is 27,000 but the accord is more luxery then sport. thats where the cost difference is. plus the aggressive look is what sells the car

+Alex Silva My Favorite reviewers are Redline Reviews and SWF

Alex Silva nahhhhh dude, si still has much better handling.

its fun being the owner of one. Mustangs, WRXs and 86s are the best to make upset. they get the most mad XD

@Deathto Trolls umm my cammed FBO J35 Accord toys with modern 5.0 crowd killer's for fun LOL

I've bested every kind of mustang (naturally aspirated mind you) That isn't the 2012+ 5.0 at least once. 2005 back have never bested me cept one v8. He gapped my ass hard. Pretty sure he races a lot and props to him lol. I beat every 4 banger too (cept wrxs. holy shit they're fast). Type R's are not easy to beat either. If you letm they'll end up getting you top end so you need to gap them as much as possible before you leave 3rd gear. old school v8 guys have no idea how slow they really are (when stock lol). I have a 08 v6 auto accord sedan with only 3rd cat, small resonator and mufflers deleted and i gap them. Sometimes its a fight but usually i win by half a car at least. Oh and dont race vettes in your v6. Doesn't matter the year for some reason these cars always ALWAYS win by a car or two. (dream car is a c5 or c6 zr1

Velanestar autoTRAGIC you say? I know blah blah blah new autos are faster but where’s the real effort

@@eVerProductions1 well if you can shift through the first 3 gears properly - knowing your cars transmission, you dont have as much as of disadvantage as a 6 speed auto with no selections what so ever. Dont get me wrong id much rather have a v6 accord coupe with a 6speed fun box but those are rare as fuck now

Isaiah Martinez yeah I mean if not then almost all Honda fans back to the 90’s get counted out

Its fine buts not the stigma that people care about its just the fun aspects of a rwd car that we prefer lol

Front wheel drive cars are my favorite

It takes experience to be able to push a FWD to it's peak level of handling/performance, that's what makes it fun! Merely having all the most "preferable" car specs/mods doesn't make a person a better driver. Too many people jump to that conclusion without maximizing their potential with what they already have.

FWD is fun in ligth cars. But a car heavy as the Accord deserved a RWD or at least a AWD.

Not at all. Especially for a car that gets 30mpg highway. I been looking for a 16 with 6mt. Doing the research and was just recommended this video. Lol

@@TWOxTONE_773 yep V6, 6 speed, 30 mpg hwy & regular gas (not premium) love my 6 speed they are rare & always fun

Wow I had no idea they were that fast. I think I’d probably hold onto it if I had it since it’s so rare.

Absolutely, naturally aspirated v6 is no more, I haven’t driven this car but really want to, maybe buy😙

I have a 2002 accord with a j series, i adore it.. I want to get a newer car with another motor like this one.

Bern on Cars subarus love them also

I’ve got an 05 6-6 and i love it lol 168k

I have the exact same 9th gen 6-6 hands down one of the best cars I’ve ever owned.

R I @ 10:00 too! 👌🏼

even with my 03 V6 coupe, the same thing works. bit less power but also lighter and still outstanding for it's time. Who else was putting out 240 hp naturally aspirated V6's in 2003? this platform has always been great. Sad that they killed it off last year

TIMP1198 Definitely buying one now that Honda doesn't make one.

was waiting for this comment. Honda underrates the accord so it won't kill the TLX

+Jacob Evans Yeah ..

***** Yeah, I miss the TSX and TL. I don't like the TLX

***** Yeah.. Well.. At least some parts of the world still have the Honda Accord Euro which is the TSX with different badges and a better front grill!

+Shuffle3956 I'm a former Acura salesmen so I'm a little biased but the TLX is nothing short of reliable. but the first year models of ANY car regardless if brand are trash. and the TL and TSX sell technically exist. V6 awd tlx = TL. 4 cyl TLX with PAWS = TSX. that's how the cars are branded internally

Lol

nonono! the video actualy starts at 0:00

+Dominic Mason Can you link me to where the video ends? I looked every (beginning and about halfway through) and couldn't find it

The video never ends 0_0

thanks bro

Hi

Street Speed 717 Hey buddy!

Honda respects the manual which I love and is rare in todays auto industry

@@LimeTimeHD not no more😒

@@MickeyMea they are still going to make the Civic in manual at least

Manual faster coming from an auto owner

Highly agree. This car isn’t a bad investment one bit

me also

I've had mine for 3 years and it still puts a smile in my face every time I drive it. Highly recommend getting one!

Got a 2016 touring w/ red seats😁 fun car

Agreed

Yeah, those 2 Hondas are my favorite

+NothinButCars cheaper to make FWD cars, and honda is going towards family oriented vehicles like toyota

Man Honda needs to bring out their badass side again and start putting out more RWD cars

+The Kowbow They came out with a new NSX, 300hp Type R and rumors of a new S2K :)

How’s it holding up ? I’m sure it’s chugging along just fine if u didn’t sell

Haha thanks! Yeah I'd like to think I've become a lot better at reviewing cars over the years lol. Thanks for the comment!

how's the handling? I'm looking at the 8th and 9th gen 6-6 coupes, I'm coming out of a BMW 328ci so handling means a lot to me.

It's pretty good in my opinion. On stock suspension their's not that much body roll. It's not a very sporty car so its not spectacular, but not bad!

You'll be exchanging speed for power.

Sorry wrote that wrong. You'd be exchanging handling for speed.

son sonson 7

It has like 10 more horsepower than the previous generation

@Jeff Pratt is the 2015 feel faster (more torque-y?). I have the 2006 V6 manual and trying to decide whether I should get another Accord or something else. Would you say they are about the same? I'm honestly pretty underwhelmed by my Accord.

I'm thinking of buying this car.

+ProjectM97 It's fast but not as fast as the Mustang.

+ProjectM97 I have this car (with the automatic) and my biggest gripe with it is the automatic uses VCM which switches from 6 cylinders to 3 cylinders when you are cruising or when there's little to no throttle being applied. It's worse then turbo lag, so definitely consider that when/if you test drive one

No way the v6 is faster than a Ecoboost 😂

+subaruwrxfan I read online that the 0-60mph is quicker on paper at 5.6 seconds. Another review I saw says it handles like a high end sports car.

How much u pay

This car is such a sweet sleeper. Idk what it is- but gatt damn the seating position and comfort is out of this world. It’s insulated so well too, so quiet and smooth inside

YES!!!

+ThatGearHead™ and fcking let the exhaust tips be visible.... and add a bit of power (heavy car)

I miss the quad exhausts on that 2008 TL Type S

this please plus an ilx 6mt coupe

Add a 6 speed and a LSD

sgm4545 same here

No it's not. I've had both. 9th 6--6 is quite a bit of a difference.

@@jacetheace849 honestly all i noticed was a bit less body roll and a bit more turning stability in the 9th gen They’re powered by the same j series v6 . I found the acceleration and quickness to be about the same. What differences did you notice? Honestly just curious what your experience was.

I did the wheels and suspension didn’t go with the bodywork. The car handles even better. It’s a weapon 👍🏼
