these reviews are bullsh*t. sorry to be so harsh but it's not about what car is best. it's about which car is best FOR YOU.

i test drove both the accord and the altima, and i'm extremely satisfied with the choice i made...both cars have their perks but the one that fit me most was the altima.

all because of the effin stock tires?!?! That's , nobody keeps them stock forever anyway... According to the review, honda's been the front runner with the accord for years... and the A/C gives it a very tight run for it's money in only it's first year... that doesn't make the accord sound any better to me, at all

Why did they stick the Eclipse in there? Hell, why not throw the GT Spyder in there as well. And why they are at it, lets shove a Jeep in there. It's got two doors, right?

Personally I love the Eclipse but I didn't pick it because it was a sports car, not a coupe. These guys stuck it in the comparison and then basically ignored it.

Boo.

Hmm, odd they didn't mention how ugly the back of the Accord is. I think you could take rear badge off and replace it with a Dodge emblem and that is not a good thing

Coupe just means it has 2 doors. I think it was right throw the Eclipse in there. I'm suprised Nissan didn't put performance tires for the car especially because it was the 3.5L.

since we're on the topic of the accord, i saw a black Honda civic from the back and like an hour later i saw a black accord coupe from the back and it looked like the same exact car (from the back)! just maybe a little bigger but exactly the same. people call the altima coupe the poor mans G35 but at least Nissan was smart enough to take ideas from there higher end car then take ideas from lower end cars

QFT. I feel better knowing I'm not the only one that doesn't like that styling.

I absolutely love the interior of my 2008 Altima. Of course my previous car was a no cup holder wielding 1978 Buick Riviera...

It would be interesting for them to compare the automatic transmission variety. most of the cars sold are automatic.

I tested drove a Honda Coupe V6 with Auto, and it really is slower and less fun to drive than the Altima coupe with the CVT.
