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:

    Car has exceeded everyone of my expectations. The navigation system is my favorite feature and a must have for those who are directionally challenged!

    I have had a Honda since college. The ride on a V6 from my four cylinder was well worth the extra $$$. It is to bad to learn late in the game that the brakes are sub par. I still fill that I am in my 1987 accord. What happened to technology???????????????

  • My Third Accord - Best Yet! - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I bought one of the first Accords with an A/T in 76 and have been a fan ever since. In the last five years Ive owned an Odyssey, CR-V, and this new Accord. This is the best of the lot. Super comfortable, amazing handling and really quiet. I was amazed at the leg room in the back seat, even with the front seats pushed back. This is my around-town car, so the four banger is plenty of power with sweet gas mileage. 17+ gallon tank means passing a lot of gas stations along the way. Even the paint is superior to other cars in this price range.

    I put on 9k miles in 6 month, not a single problem. I got around 30 mpg with combined city/highway driving, very good mileage for a mid-size sedan. Great power and very comfortable. You wont go wrong with the accord.

  • BEST OF THE BEST - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I TEST DROVE MANY CARS INCLUDING THE CAMRY AND ALTIME BEFORE SETTLING ON THE ACCORD. THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIALS AND THE FIT AND FINISH REALLY SOLD ME ON THE CAR. PLUS, I THOUGHT I WAS DRIVING A 6 CYLINDER UNTIL THE SALESPERSON ADVISED ME IT WAS A 4. ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CAR IVE EVER OWNED. HUGHES HONDA IN WARNER ROBINS GA WAS ALSO THE BEST DEALER.

    More fun to drive this manual four cylinder EX than the two Camrys Ive owned. Interesting to read the complaints about squeaks and rattles: after 40,000 miles I dont have any ... and have needed to do nothing to the car except change the engine oil a few times (easy to do on your own on this car)and put on a new set of tires. I like the firm seats with good side bolsters. I plan to happily keep this car for 200,000 miles. Good value for $20,000.

  • A Very Good Car For Its Price - 2004 Honda Accord

    The Honda Accord Ex w/ Leather and XM Radio is the best car you are going to find for a midsize sedan. It offers everything you need and more! The Leather Heated Seats are a plus, along with the XM Radio! The drive is awesome as it is sooo smooth on every road even in the city. Much better than the Altima or Camry. If you are looking for a midsize sedan go for the Accord as Hondas reliability is outstanding.

  • quality - 2004 Honda Accord

    drives like a sports car and has sound craftmanship throughout. i love "all the standard" equipment.

  • Studied Accord, Camry, Passat - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    I have studied all four cars for the last three months, drove, researched, service, asked others............ drove a second time....same day... the Accord comes out on top....the smoothness of driving from 0 to 70, you cannot tell, when it shifts. Very sound tight, as I drive 35,000 miles a year. The body comes together with very uniformity on the body lines. The servicing is far better than the others. I have bought six new vehicles previously from GM, Toyota, Nissan, this is far the best!

  • Exceeds all expectations - 2004 Honda Accord
    By -

    Every time I get in my Accord, I feel like Ive cheated the system. I cant believe the value I have gotten for such a great price. This car stuns everyone who gets in it. The quality interior design, and plush accommodations, not to mention power and handling make this car a joy to drive. I still cant beleive Im in a Honda when I am driving around town, because by the looks and feel of this car, I feel like Im in a $40,000- $50,000 luxury coupe!
