Overall, the handling is excellent, with good road feel. The suspension is stiffer compared to Toyota Camry. The wind and road noise are noticeable at higher speed. The Accord has firm, well controlled, although not exceptionally quiet ride. The rear seat folds down to accommodate longer items. Front seats are very comfortable and supportive even on long trips. The distinctive high-tech dashboard design with sharp looking instrument panel stands out from the crowd. Honda Accord offers rich-looking roomy interior with excellent fit and finish.

The 6-speed manual transmission is available in late EX V6 models. The powertrain choices include the 2.4L 4-cylinder or 3.0L V6 engine with and an automatic or 5-speed manual transmission. The 2003-2007 Accord has front-wheel drive and comes as a four-door sedan or two-door coupe. Civics competed against the Ford Focus, Mazda Protege, Toyota Corolla, and Volkswagen Golf/Jetta. Antilock brakes were standard on EX models, but unavailable elsewhere. Front side airbags were a line-wide option and included a sensor that deactivates the passenger bag if the occupant is not positioned for proper protection. The standard dual-stage airbags were designed to deploy with force appropriate to occupant size and weight. The extra-cost automatic was a conventional four-speed unit, except for the HX coupe, which again offered Honda's continuously variable transmission (CVT), with a belt-and-pulley system providing an infinite number of "gears." Wheelbases were unchanged, but overall length was marginally shorter and all models were taller with slightly larger cabins and trunks. A five-speed manual transmission was standard. All models had longer oil-change and tune-up intervals.

Civic EX models were unchanged in power, but gained a little torque output. Civic's previous 1.6-liter four-cylinder engines gave way to 1.7-liter derivatives with 9 more horsepower for DX and LX models. The sporty Si coupe was dropped, but would return after a year's absence. A high-mileage HX coupe also joined the group, as did a low-emissions GX sedan that ran on compressed natural gas (CNG). The Civic lineup consisted of DX, LX, and top-rung EX coupes and sedans. Sedan and coupe body styles returned, but the Civic hatchback was gone-at least for a while. This perennial Best Buy began its seventh design generation with all-new models, offering front side airbags as a first-time option.
