Overview & Reviews

Few vehicles from overseas manufacturers have garnered as much respect in North America as the Honda Accord. It hasn't achieved this status by being glamorous, sexy or thrilling. Instead, Honda just seems to have its finger on the pulse of what Americans value most. Take an Accord for a spin and you'll find it to be comfortable, roomy, intelligently engineered and easy to drive. It's also backed by strong resale value and a solid reputation for reliability.

You'll find that certain competing sedans and coupes are quicker, more prestigious or simply less expensive than the Accord. What's special about the Honda Accord, though, is its completeness. It scores well across a broader range of categories than practically any family-friendly sedan or coupe on the market. When examined from this holistic standpoint, it's easy to see why the Accord has become an automotive icon and remains one of our editors' top recommendations.

  An Excellant Vehicle - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Ann Martin - August 28 - 10:00 am

  I have had my 2003 Honda Acoord Ex for 11months now and have had ample time to really know the satisfaction of having bought the best car on the market to meet my needs.For a family of four, the interior is roomy and comfortable. I am relaxed and at ease using the controls on the steering wheel as well as those on the dash. I feel the car is very reliable and quite safe as I do my daily driving from work to my childrens school and home and to run errands. I was also amazed at the amount of trunk space in my car, there is more space than i imagined.

  New Accords First Year - 2004 Honda Accord
  By dhechinger - August 28 - 10:00 am

  My experience over 18 months of ownership of the Accord EX V6 indicates significant improvement in the engineering over the previous generation (handling, excelleration, drivetrain design, etc.). The exterior design remains lackluster, the initial quality of construction less than my previous Accord. There are some body integrity issues (door rattles, e.g.). The transmission, an exemplary smooth one linked to the equally smooth V-6, makes an annoying noise at 10 mph when first started. Aside from first year construction issues, the vehicle is a pleasure to drive both long and short distances, has a surprising amount of rear leg room, and has been dependable to a fault.

  Great first car - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Jordan r - August 27 - 2:00 am

  This car is great and probably the most enjoyable car i have ever driven. Even if i drive my moms caddy its just not the same. There is just something the accord offers that others dont. The handling could be a little sharper, but after putting on 18 inch chrome wheels and a set of 225/40/18 z-rated tires it can cut through corners with an amazing imptovement.

  You Got to Love this one - 2004 Honda Accord
  By MaddiePatterson - August 27 - 2:00 am

  There is not much to not love about this car. I really enjoy it and the looks I get when driving down the road. The kids fight over who is going to drive when the family goes somewhere together and they are always trying to get mom to let them borrow the car.
