This Year's Model Updates:

A number of interior, exterior and mechanical updates were made for 2004. The V6 engine added slightly more power and is now rated at 265 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque. Outside, you'll find a restyled front fascia, new chrome trim, dual exhaust tips, a new wheel design for Touring models, updated headlights and taillights and a rear wing spoiler. The interior now features trendy brushed metal-look trim for the center stack, leather armrests, auto-on/off headlights, new ambient foot lighting and enhanced functionality of the second-row seat for third-row access. Touring models get a new version of the Bose premium audio system and power lumbar support for the driver seat. Finally, safety has been improved on all MDXs with the addition of side curtain airbags and a tire-pressure monitoring system.

Pros:
  • Room for seven passengers or serious amounts of cargo, gutsy V6 engine, well-balanced suspension, top-rated crash test scores, low price.
Cons:
  • Limited off-road capability, below-average tow rating, ho-hum interior design and materials.

    I feel totally secure when driving in the worst weather--this MDX is a dream come true. It hugs the road, has a touch of luxury, and is absolutely reliable.

  • The interior should be higher qlty. - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    I have enjoyed owning and driving this car. Its a great vehicle. My disappointments are in the suggested improvements section. Paying sticker was painful. The gas mileage could be better. I get 17/mpg. Defrost gives off a musty smell in summer.

  • mdx ride - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    Recently, I woke up late for my flight. It entailed a fast ride to the airport.At speeds of 80-90 mph I really experienced the true handling of this vehicle.It was pure peformance. The engine purred and the ride was tight and really tracked to the road. For an SUV it was unbelievable. This really is a great vehicle.

  • Best SUV in class - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    This is the best SUV on the market, feature for feature, dollar for dollar! There are more expensive SUVs! SUVs with more snob appeal, but that dont feed the Bulldog! They cannot carry hardly anything internally or compare with the Hondas ULEV motor! I would not trade mine which I use as a commercial vehicle for any other SUV on the market!

  • LOVE MY ACURA - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    I HAVE ONLY OWNED MY MDX FOR 2 WEEKS AND ABSOLUTELY LOVE TO DRIVE IT. IT MAKES MY TRIP TO WORK AND BACK SOMETHING I LOOK FORWARD TO. NOT TO IMPRESSED WITH THE GAS MILEAGE BUT LETS REMEMBER IT IS AN LUXURY SUV. I PAID 2500 UNDER MSRP AND WAS VERY HAPPY TO HAVE MADE THIS DEAL.

  • 2004 MDX - Love it - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    Only problem was noise from the nash after 100 miles. Dealer found problem and fixed it right away. Great ride, feels like a car. Fuel economy is less than with a car, but that is expected when purchasing an SUV.

  • Better than our Lexus - 2004 Acura MDX
    By -

    The MDX has surpased my expectations. The ride is quite and extemely comfortable. We had a Lexus RX 300 and it was smaller and did not have the same power. It handles great and has surprising excelleration.The interior is set up great. Plenty of room even in the third row seats.
