I looked at every car on the market, i was looking for a nice car, with good gas mileage, Navigation, and a manual transmission. This limited me to only a few choices, being the Mazda 6, Nissan Altima 3.5Se, the Accord. I also looked at the Audi A4 or BMW 328 but i didn't want to spend the money and these two vehicles need premium. Keep in mind my current car was a 04 Infiniti FX35, so i was used to a "luxury car" and wanted something with great quality, fit and finish, and all the features.
The Accord is great! and exceeds my expectations. The seats are more comfortable then my Infiniti, the car comes with bluetooth (which is unheard of for this price and a non-luxury car). and i'm getting 27MPG (and it has no where to go but up since i have less then 1k miles so it's not even broken in).
I know you are looking at V6s but this I4 has plenty of power, especially when VTEC kicks in.
