Used value estimate

2009 Honda Accord value

By Hari Vinayak · Updated 2026-06-12

Quick answer

A 2009 Honda Accord in good condition with average mileage (about 212,500 miles) is worth roughly $4,500 in a private-party sale — a fair range of $4,150 to $4,850, or about $5,200 at a dealer. Note: 2009 is a flagged year for this model (2008–2012) — V6 models with VCM: oil consumption and fouled plugs. Four-cylinder cars of the same years are much safer. Expect to pay at the lower end and budget for that risk.

What to check before you pay

  • 2008–2012 V6 (VCM): oil consumption, fouled plugs, and engine mount wear — ask if a VCM disabler was used and check for misfire history
  • 2018+ 1.5T: oil dilution in cold climates — demand oil-change records
  • 2013–2015 CVT models: generally solid, but confirm CVT fluid service
