Thanks for your input.

The Accords are considerably more expensive, so maybe the $80 a month additional fuel bill of a Verada would be better than a $1,000-2,000 price hike for the Accord?
Also I assume the Verada is more comfortable (quieter, smoother, more spacious) and has additional uses like being able to tow (something I will likely need).

If they were all the same price I would go the accord but I have had my eye out on these cars and they are around 3-4K at the least. And at this price they are 200K km+ which seems overpriced.
