2004 Honda Accord

Pros: Powertrain performance, refinement, quality look and feel
Cons: Rear seat below average, tire thump, Camry now less expensive

I’d just driven a four-cylinder automatic Nissan Altima with leather upholstery, and wanted to drive a similarly-equipped Honda Accord so that I could compare the two back-to-back. My salesperson disappeared for a good twenty minutes, only to return ...

Pros: Slick interior, refined and efficient engine, easy shifting, comfortable seats.
Cons: No sporting reflexes, isolated control interfaces, overwhelming blandness.

My Experience I test-drove a Honda Accord EX Coupe at a local dealership. My test-drive lasted about half an hour and covered city streets, a winding frontage road, and the freeway. Performance One of my favorite things about ...

Pros: Refined, Nice Design, Excellent Cruiser
Cons: Weak headlights, possible dip in quality compared to last generation.

Wow, four new cars in four years…this is bad. Totaling my new BMW [328i 2000] was a painful experience. During the recovery phase I promised myself a normal car and to economize in general. The last generation Honda Accord EX V6 [2002] Sedan was my ...

Pros: Stunning V6 engine. Excellent automatic transmission. Excellent seats. Quiet, smooth ride. Classy styling.
Cons: Needs firmer springs/shocks. Niggling build quality problems.

This review is for the Accord EX V6 4-door. I have owned the car for 8 months now, enough time to get to know it very well. First of all, the V6 engine performance is nothing short of stunning. It is incredible quick, and will cruise effortlessly at ...

Pros: Power, ride, build quality, features, reliability, overall appearance and performance.
Cons: No automatic open/close sunroof, tranny sometimes slow to downshift, rear end styling

I've been a proud owner of a 2004 Accord EX V6 Sedan for over six months now and could not be more impressed with this car. My previous vehicle was a 2002 Accord EX 4-cylinder sedan with 5-speed manual and I truly loved that car. But, the shortcomings ...

Pros: milage, resale value, 5spd-A-trans, voice Navigation, 4-cyl-engine w/ timing chain, 110K first-tune-up, 10k oil change
Cons: Ride could be more damped and smoother, slight interior panel vibrations from the stereo bass

Interesting, if long, reviews here, but I felt they missed a few important details. Of course, the main competitor here is the Camry. It's a very nice car; nothing wrong with it, but felt it simply did not compare to the Accord. And I considered ...

Pros: Relatively low cost, high quality materials, Marque known for reliability
Cons: Initial quality makes me wonder if Honda is slipping.

I come from a long-line of Honda owners. My parents have owned five of them, I've owned two. In grade school, mom took me to class in a 1984 Honda Accord LX, gray--but then again, weren't ALL of the 1984's gray? My experiences with Hondas have always ...

Pros: Great gas mileage, roomy interior, refined engine
Cons: Weird looking rear end, touchy brakes, visibility

I leased a 2004 Honda Accord LX with the five speed manual transmission in July 2004. Honda had a good deal on the lease (I will buy it out at the end of the lease) and the car fit my business and personal needs. I have driven over 20k miles (I am ...

Pros: Interior is very good, buttons placed in right place, looks (controversial)
Cons: Cabin noise, Back seats are full fold instead of 60/40

My mom wanted to buy a new car so we went looking around. We looked at the Acura TSX, Mazda6, Toyota Camry, and of course the Honda Accord. Every single car we looked at was a 4 cylinder because they use timing chains instead of timing belts which ...

Pros: Great car for $23,000. Drives great, looks sharp, impressive resale value, and built to last.
Cons: Not enough head room for 6'1+. Cloth interior attracts lint, etc.

In my opinion, there is no better car on the road - for the money. I own the Coupe EX with an in-line 4-cylinder, 16-valve DOHC i-VTEC, 160 horsepower engine that gets great gas mileage and has the pickup and power of many V6 engines. The safety is ...

Pros: Honda reputation, XM radio, solid interior, fast engine, nice lines/look
Cons: soft paint that chips, no HID headlights, poor wiper performance in ice/snow, unusual rattles

After owning a 03 Nissan Altima, I decided to get a 6cyl Accord Coupe 6cyl EX-L. I've owned it for 1 month and have a few comments..I also worked for a honda dealership during the late 90s: Ride quality is excellent. It's quiet, smooth, and ...

Pros: Great MPG yet plenty of get up and go, stylish, reliable
Cons: Limited head room for tall person, handling a bit heavy

I've had my '04 Accord LX, 4 cylinder, 5-speed manual sedan for a year and one half now. I am about 98-percent thrilled to pieces with it. The biggest thrill comes from its sparing gasoline usage, particularly in these days of highway-robbery gas prices! ...

Pros: Good handling, Price, Reputation
Cons: Rear view with spoiler, road noise, speedometer light

I bought a 2004 Accord due to never hearing anything bad about a Honda. I chose the Accord over the Civic because it is bigger and has more power. I love the way it drives, very nimble and sporty. I thought I would never buy a car with a 4-cylinder ...

Pros: see review
Cons: see review

I purchase my 04 Accord Sedan in Feb 04. Mine had just arrived from the factory when I went to test drive one. I chose the Redondo Red with Grey leather interior. Also I knew the right choice was to go with the powerful & effecient V6. It may cost a ...

Pros: interior quality, ergonomics, handling, ride
Cons: 'jumpy throttle', grabby brakes, styling, questionable value in loaded form

I have always been an admirer of Honda’s; their impeccable quality, outstanding reliability, and for the most part they are fun to drive. When the new Honda Accord coupe came out as an 03 model, the cars high quality interior, more sophisticated ...
