honestly if I was complemplating getting a $34K Accord, I'd just try to stretch and get this....not a stripper either....xdrive, nav, sunroof, heated seats, etc. $37K or $399/mo $0 down lease.

Got to go Touring for around $32K discounted or maybe less.
I don't know how the Touring gets discounted.Maybe not like the EX.

I was not impressed by the output on these. After experiencing several LED headlight equipped-cars, I have come to the conclusion that not all LED headlights have matched the best HID's yet. The Porsche 911's are great though, I can say that.

Great review. The new Accord is one of the brighter spots for Honda lately. I agree, of all related sedans, this would be the one I'd drop my coin on. It simply outshines the others in nearly all spots, and brings top reliability, resale, and efficiency to the table. Those real world V6 mpg numbers are simply astonishing.
My complaints are all related to the stingy option sheet Honda continues to feed America. No sunroof or leather for the Sport, no LED lights for most models (and those offered are too dim), same small EX wheels for the top-line Touring model, and no mauaul shift lever option for automatic-equipped units (shift paddles on the Sport will never get used because no one drives with both hands on the wheel). Also, Honda continues to be one of the worst with exterior and interior color combinations. Stingy stingy stingy.

I'd take the Accord over the BMW any day. Larger, roomier, quieter, smoother, arguably faster, more comfortable, more fuel efficient, more reliable, more features, cheaper to own, better resale value, etc. The one thing the BMW has over the Accord doesn't make up for all its shortfalls.
