2012 Honda Accord Coupe EX: Sporty Style Meets Everyday Reliability

The 2012 Honda Accord Coupe EX blends sporty aesthetics, dependable performance, and daily drivability in a sleek two-door configuration. As part of the eighth-generation Accord (2008–2012), this model maintains Honda’s reputation for quality and longevity while appealing to drivers who want a bit more flair than the sedan version. With its well-balanced chassis and smooth powertrain, the EX Coupe stands out as a stylish yet practical choice in the midsize coupe segment.

  • Engine Type: 2.4L i-VTEC inline 4-cylinder

  • Horsepower: 190 hp @ 7,000 RPM

While not a high-performance coupe, the Accord EX’s 2.4L engine delivers a responsive and smooth driving experience.

The front-wheel-drive layout provides secure handling and predictable behavior in a variety of conditions.

Driving Experience

The 2012 Accord Coupe EX is rewarding to drive, with responsive steering, well-tuned suspension, and confident handling. It’s more engaging than the average midsize car, thanks to its lower stance and tighter chassis tuning. The 5-speed manual option adds a layer of driver involvement that enthusiasts will appreciate, while the automatic keeps things smooth and convenient for daily commuting.


Overall Impressions

The 2012 Honda Accord Coupe EX offers a winning combination of reliability, style, and everyday practicality. Its sporty looks are backed by a responsive powertrain and well-sorted chassis, while the interior remains comfortable and well-equipped for the price point. Though it lacks some of the high-end tech found in modern cars, it remains a dependable and enjoyable vehicle that still holds strong value in the used market.
