I'm 72 years old and have owned many automobiles, old and new in the last 50
years.
However, for the first time, I find myself hitting my head on the door's
archway on entry and exit.
It doesn't matter how the seat is adjusted, although the effect can get
better or worse.
I'm a small man, only 5'5" tall without any body distortions and can get in
and out of my other 2 automobiles, which are Saturn SL2's, without any
problems.
I am extremely disappointed and annoyed and tend to prefer driving the
Saturns in order to avoid hitting my head.
Of all the Honda owners on this board who have the 2005 Accord EX, does
anyone else have this problem?

Not me. I'm 71 and 6-0, 190 pounds. Don't have any trouble at all.
I would have trouble if the seat was adjusted too high.
