We've uncovered irreparable damage several times in the past, but other times our vehicle history checks draw a blank - and sometimes that's actually a good thing. The information we provide relates solely to the vehicle, its odometer reading, any accidents that have been covered up, where the vehicle comes from and much more - it never gets personal. Let's be clear: Although we strive to find every detail of a vehicle's life so far, we are focused only on the vehicle's history, and do not collect any information on previous owners. Privacy for Customers - Transparency over Vehicles The used car import and export market is booming and many owners would be surprised to find out exactly what happened to their vehicle during its previous life abroad. We believe your next car shouldn't be hiding anything from you.ĬARFAX Vehicle History Reports contain over 28 billion historical records from 20 European countries, the US and Canada, which are updated daily with new information.Įven if you live in a country we don't collect vehicle data from, it's still always worth checking the Vehicle Identification Number without obligation. Our primary goal is to help you get to know your next car from the inside out before deciding to make an investment that will be part of you and your family's everyday life. As an independent vehicle history provider, at CARFAX we've made it our mission to tell you everything you need to know by uncovering as many events as possible from the previous life of a used car. Not to mention that at $31,145, fully loaded with nav, it’s getting scarily close to BMW 128i territory-and that’s a car that will likely satisfy style mavens, driving enthusiasts, and automobile snobs in better measure.Sometimes what you don't know can't hurt you, but that's not the case when buying a used car. For one, we’d like a little more differentiation in the cabin from the Accord sedan, especially as it’s saddled with the same fussy minor controls. We have few complaints about the Accord coupe.
The Accord coupe would, however, benefit from the Prelude SH’s sophisticated limited-slip differential because it wastes the 235/45 Michelin tires under hard acceleration when the traction and stability controls are switched off. The Accord coupe goes down the road nicely, too, with sharp, accurate steering and faithful front-wheel-drive manners, like a spiritual successor to the late, lamented Prelude coupe.

The six-speed manual transmission fitted to our tester was slick and easy to use. The Accord reaches 100 mph from rest in 13.6 seconds, 2.1 seconds earlier than the Nissan. The sonorous and smooth 3.5-liter V-6 engine makes a solid 268 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque, enough to motivate the car from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, 0.2 second quicker than the Altima. It’s not quite as slinky as the brand-new ’08 Altima coupe, but its svelte lines are arguably better balanced and offer more room-three more cubic feet of interior space (93 versus 90)-but the trunk is far bigger at 12 cubic feet (compared with the Altima’s 7).īecause of its superior sedan underpinnings, the Accord coupe is a better machine than the Altima. We’ve heard that line before, and the result is invariably as exciting as a meal of oatmeal and water.īut this time, the Accord coupe has the handsome design that’s needed in the coupe market.

When Honda promises dramatic styling, there’s usually a collective groan from the Car and Driver nerve center.
