2008 Honda Accord Coupe Reviews:
edmunds Reviewed the 2008 Honda Accord Coupe and gave out”The Accord coupe is still not the car for serious humpin’ and pumpin’, but it’s a little closer than before. At least the coupe now makes a case for itself with sporting — even daring — styling. And it is quick.”

What do you guys think about having the 2008 honda accord coupe wheels on a 2008 honda accord sedan?
I currently have a 2008 Honda Accord LX-P and was looking to upgrade from the 16″ wheels to 17″ wheels. Initially I was looking at the 17″ sedan wheels to put on the car, but they look exactly the same except an inch bigger. So I looked at the coupe wheels instead, do you think they would look good on my car?

I think they would look decent, but I personally don’t like the Accord coupes rims (I like the V6 coupe rims). Genuine Honda products are pricey, but if you don’t mind about spending the money, go for it. Stick with 17’s, and you should have no problems. Hope this helps, and good luck!

It depends what you mean. If your question has to do with reliability, expenses…etc. You’ve already got a bunch of answers here.
A BMW under $20k will likely be a 4 year old car. As with many other cars, you will need to have major scheduled services as well as worn parts changed out. Without warranty, most BMW dealer labor rates are at $95 - $110 per hour. So your cost of owning a BMW isn’t really $20k.
With a new Honda, everything’s new, and with Honda being a reliable Japanese make, you will likely not need any kind of repairs (other than scheduled services) for at least the first 3-4 years.
Honda uses regular gas whereas BMW needs premium gas. So you will save some money on the running costs.
……………….BUT……………….
If your question has to do with the “driving experience”, why don’t you go drive both of them and decide for yourself? The major difference between a BMW vs anything else is the driving sensation.
For example, most people who have never driven a BMW before will find the BMW steering to be “heavy”. This is all part of the “ultimate driving machine” that makes the BMW different. The heavy steering gives more feedback that drivers can “feel” more of the road (and hence, traction).
In other words, a BMW is FUN to drive for people who ENJOY driving. And this comes at a price premium over other cars.
For people who just want a point-A-to-point-B-car, reliability, running costs, practicality…etc plays a more important role than driving experience.
Or, if you are considering a BMW for the sake of the BMW name, then I would recommend the Honda instead.
