Please I need inputs from people that know much about this car or drive them, what part is actually expensive in comparison to Toyota Camry.

I’m particularly interested in the V6.

The car is pretty reliable so maybe the feedback you're getting is for body parts.
If that's the case, you can comprehensively insure it so that cost of body parts won't be on you

The first bunch of people who used this vehicle in Nigeria were mostly dealing with mechanics who hadn’t encountered the earth dreams engine very much and were just learning its technology. Those who got the 4cyl were most affected because after taking care of all usual repairs they will forget that the gearbox isn’t like the former accord.

Once the shift hesitations and delays began they immediately went to their mechanics who recommended they change its fluid. They then used another fluid not recommended for the gearbox and that was how most of them never remained the same again.

Apart from the finicky 4cyl gearbox the vehicle is an all round solid car. Honda has been using and developing their own cvt gearboxes ‘in house’ since that generation of Honda. Today their cvt system is among the best in the market but only if you just follow its factory maintenance schedule.

The v6 is a solid performance vehicle. After that generation Honda ditched their v6 in favor for a turbocharged 4cyl model with a cvt system.

The main unicorn of this accord generation is the v6 coupe model with a manual transmission. It’s the last of its breed.
