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:

  • Ok if you look past build quality issues - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    My EXV6 cp is plagued with squeaks, creaks, rattles, and buzzing. The dealer had trouble fixing them. The interior looks and feels solid, but the seats are shaped poorly. The transmission shifts hard and isnt responsive. On the plus side, the 3.0 engine gives you great high-end response if you have it in the right gear. Im getting 24- 25mpg on 87 in mixed driving. Handling is decent and inspires confidence. Brakes are catchy, but hard braking elicits the EBD, and ABS is too easy to kick in. Dont know about snow yet. Serious buyers: buy the 6sp, and dont accept delivery until you are satisfied that your car is rattle-free and prepped properly.

  • First midsized car - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    Leased this car last week and am very happy with my selection. Previous car was a 03 Corolla CE 5-speed manual. Outstanding quality of materials and construct/assembly. Great compromise of ride & handling. Very quiet at all speeds. Good fuel economy for a midsized... average 30mpg in 70/30 hwy/city respecitvely. Great stereo, no need to consider an upgrade. Love the styling. Engine/tranny are top notch. Limited headroom.

  • Great Car - 2004 Honda Accord

    The 4 cyl is powerful for city but lacks just a little on the highway. I would still get the 4 over the 6. I get about 30mpg combined on the recommended 87 octane. The leather seats are very comfortable and supportive. I wouldnt buy one without the Nav and voice activation. It makes the car and changes the whole look of the dash.

  • A great choice - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    Traded a 2002 Acura RSX for this car. Considered the new TSX but for the same money got 40 more horsepower, smooth V6, roomier interior, cheaper insurance, and the Accord uses regular gas. Overall, very pleased. The fuel economy is outstanding considering the power provided. Recently averaged 29 MPG on a trip driving 70-80 mph. The car is very smooth and quiet. Night and day compared to the RSX. Not much to complain about, my suggested improvements are really nitpicking a nearly perfect car.

  • Best on the Lot - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I started out with my basic needs, a good sized family car, reliable and stylish. Was contemplating between Nissan Altima 2.5s and Honda accord. This model of accord had better features than Altima with Added features and costed the same. But Accord is so smooth and has perfect handling. With a good resale value and ratings Accord was the final choice.

  • Honda comes through again... - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is by far the best car I have ever owned. Its quiet, refined, and very stylish. I have the 4-cyl which performs excellent on all conditions. If youre looking for a reliable car that wont break the bank, I recommend the Accord. It feels so sturdy and strong. I plan to have it for atleast 150,000 miles.

  • Excellent Ride - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I purchased my Honda Accord EX-V6 sedan in January after doing an extensive review of the competition. Everything about this cars interior is amazing. Im a tall guy and I drive other tall people around, and everyones comfortable. The sound system is accentuated by the lack of road noise. The 240hp engine cruises quite comfortable at any speed (Ive had mine up to 110 without even noticing). The 4-wheel ABS braking system "should" keep me out of trouble, but if I am involved in a collision, it feels like Im driving a friggin tank. I feel safe in this car... perhaps too safe.
