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.

  205000 and still strong - 1995 Honda Accord
  By CEB - December 2 - 2:00 am

  Bought it new and at 205000m is still strong. Never broken down. Original clutch. No rust although a NE car. Gets over 32mpg now and revs smoothly and powerfully to the redline to which I frequently take it. Absolutely no rattles -actually am amazed, especially as I installed stiffer shocks and springs F&R swaybars (absolutely essential for decent handling), done the basic engine mods and drive this thing fairly hard. Brake work is expensive though with the pressed on rotors. If I knew it was going to last this long I would have bought the EX for more power, discs all round with ABS, sunroof, and power locks. It would have been well worth the extra money.

  best car - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Team718 - December 1 - 2:00 am

  The 2004 Honda Accord EX(Silver) that my mom bought is great. the features are great and the body and build of the car is crazy. I have to say that the only thing that i didnt like was the back lights at first but i now i know why they put hem on, so that they can be different than other cars.

  Best Ever - 2004 Honda Accord
  By RandyTrinity - December 1 - 2:00 am

  Honda got it right with this one. Although wed have preferred a 6sp., the automatic is fantasic. An average of 33mpg highway on a 600 mile road trip, average speed 70 - 80 mph. Consistently gets 25+ mpg in town, even with auto.

  By leonejack - December 1 - 2:00 am

  I love this car. As a driving enthusiast, this V6 6 speed with Navi and leather is a blast. Every time I get out of the car, I say to myself, "I love this car!" Black on black, great looks gets you excited just walking up to it. Quick--YES. Fun --Absolutely. It seema misnamed as a Honda Accord. It is so much more than the name conjures up.Just Awesome. Every ride make me like it more.

  Best Car I Ever Owned! - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Elizabeth W - December 1 - 2:00 am

  Im 59 and have owned a dozen cars in my life. The Honda Accord 4-dr sedan is my favorite of all. Previously I owned a 2-dr Accord for 12 years that never needed repairing. But this new design is fun to drive, luxurious, handsome and has great pickup and gas mileage. It makes me so happy to drive it.

  Great Car - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Okun093 - December 1 - 2:00 am

  This is my third honda and first accord. Both my prior Hondas were civic models, and allthough I thought I had reason to be impressed with Honda for the reliability of the Civic, this is my first experience with an upper crest honda. I am thrilled with the car. The only objection I have is that the ride is not what it could be, based on my fathers Acura TL, which is close in styling, but it is superior to any domestic make none the less. The ride is quiet, and handles well, but a bit rough versus an acura of similar platform.

  Honda Accord 2004 by Donna - 2004 Honda Accord
  By Nanny DG - December 1 - 2:00 am

  I am very happy with my new Honda. It is very comfortable, easy to handle, and a beauty on the road. I spend a lot of time in my car, and wanted one that met the critieria that I have mentioned already. Honda came highly recommended by my friends and family. I previously owned Chrysler products, and Ill never own another one. I am sold on Honda.
