Honda vs. Nissan: Which builds a better coupe?

Materials, 1st Place – 2008 Honda Accord Coupe

Honda is known for using quality materials in the precise construction of its vehicles, and our evaluation of the 2008 Accord Coupe suggests this is a deserved reputation. We’re fans of soft-touch surfaces wherever possible, and were pleased to find these used generously inside the Accord, but there was an equal amount of hard plastic, a point that rubs us the wrong way when the sticker price is roughly $29,000. Leather upholstery felt durable. The Accord won this category because Honda put them together better than Nissan did on its Altima.
