The 2008 Honda Accord Coupe is a sporty 2-door which is available in LX-S, EX, EX-L trim levels. The EX-L is the premium level Accord and offers as options a close ratio 6-speed manual transmission and a 268hp V6. Standard on the Accord Coupe is a capable 190hp 4-cylinder engine with either a 5-speed manual or automatic transmission.

The interior of the Accord accommodates 5 healthy adults with plenty of head, leg, hip, and shoulder room. With 11.9 cu. ft. of cargo room, the trips you take don't have to involve carry-on luggage only. Climate control and air conditioning, a navigation system, and Bluetooth linkage are there as options. Steering wheel positioned audio controls and cruise control add to the premium interior features in the Coupe.

Especially noteworthy in the Accord Coupe is the abundance of safety features. Feel secure in the fact that the vehicle is equipped with not only front and side airbags, but side curtain bags as well. Until the 2008 crash test results are available, the 2007 ratings are noteworthy for 5 out 5 ratings for frontal impact on the driver's side, passenger's side, and rear occupant. The front occupant scored a 4 out of 5. Another important test that the Accord Coupe did well in was Rollover Resistance, for which it obtained a 4 out of 5.

Handling of the Honda is exceptional, with ABS and advanced stability and traction control. Noise in the cabin from the engine and highway are kept to an almost inaudible level. Externally, the 2008 model does not differ much from last year, with the exception of cosmetic changes to the grille and rear bumper. The roofline is simple and dynamic, with the rear window kicked forward, making the 2008 Honda Accord Coupe a sensuous contender for must-have coupe of the year.
