This Year's Model Updates:

As the model was fully redesigned for the 2003 model year, there are only a few changes on the 2004 Honda Accord. Availability of side curtain airbags has been expanded this year to four-cylinder EX models -- standard on those with leather, optional on cars with a cloth interior. All four- and six-cylinder EX models equipped with a leather interior now have XM Satellite Radio with three months of free service as standard equipment. And as with all Honda cars this year, a new seatbelt reminder system is standard. Accord models meeting California's stringent Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (PZEV) standards -- all four-cylinder sedans equipped with automatic transmission -- will also be sold in the states of New York, Maine, Vermont and Massachusetts.

Pros:
  • Tight build quality, quiet cabin, refined and powerful engines, reputation for quality and durability, high crash test scores.
Cons:

  • Awesome Car - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I have owned a lot of cars from Chevy Tahoes too Pontiac Grand prix. This by far is the best car I have ever owned. The Safety ratings are exceptional. So, being a single mom with 3 small kids, I was sold at that. Its totally sleek design and great gas mileage(34 mpg) are just added bonuses. I have already put 25k on it from driving cross country, have had no mechanical problems. Very comfy too!

    I think well stick with Honda from now on. During our warranty period, we never had to take it back in for anything. After 2 years and 50,000 miles, the only thing weve had to do was change the oil!! We are addicted to the GPS NAV system. We are also now sold on XM Radio - we couldnt drive without it! We dont use the voice commands because there are so many to learn and the system is slow to respond. I can either speak to turn down the volume and wait 10 seconds, or I can just reach for the knob. The only downside I can think of is that the 2nd AC charger in the center console doesnt work. SMOKER BEWARE - there is no lighter or ashtray!

    Favoritism aside, Ive gotten compliments on the roomy backseat even though its a 2-door. Its sturdy on the road, at high speeds (hee hee), in the rain. Its a very safe, sporty car.

  • 2004 EX-L V6 - 2004 Honda Accord

    This has been the best automobile I have ever owned. It has an abundance of power and still gets great gas mileage. The engine is bullet proof, and I will replace this one with another.

  • Road and interior review. - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    Too much understeer, very poor tires, torque steer very bad while turning from a stop. TAKE OFF THE VERY STUPID top speed limiter (131mph). Why sell a sport cpe with limited top speed. BMW and Mercedes uses 155 MPH. Overall a very fun car to drive, excellent fuel economy. A better grade of alloy wheels would help, such as a polished or chrome. AM/FM radio sounds very poor, needs much better speakers and higher power amp. This would beat any car in this and higher MSRP. Overall very good!

    After hearing years of people raving about Honda quality, I broke down and purchased an Accord EX, After only two weeks, I can say that I doubt I will ever by any vehicle other than Honda. Car is great and fun to drive. If the quality holds up as expected, it will easily be the best buy I have made.

  • AWESOME HONDA - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I am so glad I purchased this Accord. This is one FANTASTIC automobile!! I always loved Hondas so I knew this one would be a smart purchase. It rides great, gets great mileage and is truly worth every penny! I love the seats, the ergonomics are perfect and it gets compliments wherever I go. It is very roomy and truly a joy to drive. No regrets - the BEST car I have ever owned!

  • Astounding reliability. - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    Those of you reading this are probably looking at or considering a 2004 Accord. Mine was bought new (EX V6 with Navi) in March of 2004. I commute 120 miles each day, 5 days a week. I now have 105,000 miles on the car. This is easily the best and most reliable car Ive owned (out of about 23 in the last 20 years). I consistently get 27-30 mpg with the V6. I change the oil regularly myself with Mobil 1 oil. If you can believe it, I have not has so much as a light bulb burn out in 105,000 miles. Zero problems. I had the timing belt and water pump replaced by Honda as I approached the 100k mile mark. Other than that and oil and air filter - nothing. I just love this car.
