2004 Honda Accord EX V-6 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I am very pleased by this vehicle for over fours year, I only replaced AC transistor unit ($150) due to I switch on and off AC too many times; Honda paid for my wiper motor last year. Fuel economy is amazing for a V6. It says 18-27 mpg but my on-board computer tells it is 23+ in city and 32-34 mpg on high way if I cruise on 75 mph. I was considering trading in this babe for a 2008 Accord V6. After test driving, I still love mine. It is more responsive and fuel efficient.

Favorite Features

Super quiet V6-240 horse powered engine, on-board trip computer, Navigation system, I never get nervous to drive to a new place. Most of all, Honda quality and reliability. It is not bullet-proof but seldom break; actually is my best friend. I love it so much. It accompanied me from RI to MD to LA.

Suggested Improvements

Rear mirror auto-dim, tire-pressure monitors, light-colored leather, I do not like black interior. My back end says it is horrible in summer days in Louisiana.

I love this car!

2004 Honda Accord EX V-6 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Review

This car is the best in its class. It has the perfect blend of luxury and sports car. The acceleration is amazing! I feel that my 2004 model compares to any 2008 model car with its performance. I'm a young college student with a car thats affordable on gas, and has a classy, forever young look to it. I will grow with this car for sure and just know that it will last me through grad school!

Favorite Features

My radio is one of my favoite features, my friends are trying to buy systems to match my factory system! How hot is that? And with the economy, I definitely love my gas saver. I can fill my take and be good for the week!

Suggested Improvements

My braking system takes some adjusting to...it's like the speed can be so powerful that the sensitive braking system tends to feel like I am mashing down on them. However, after owning it for awhile, I finally got it right!

What an incredible vehicle! We were able to refinance this vehicle in 2007 and payoff some bills. It runs well and looks great still and still has good value!

Everything including the Navigation system

Leather stinks when it is new...

Review

Bought new in '04. Nice design, spacious interior, huge trunk capacity, nice look in and out. Decent pick up when merging onto highway. Good sound system, everything conveniently placed for the driver. Never had a problem with it!

Favorite Features

Moon roof, 6 disc CD changer, steering wheel mounted controls, good gas mileage (average 24 mpg mix city/hwy).

Suggested Improvements

None really. Maybe use a fabric that has less lint.

Review

Has the 5 speed automatic, which I could find on no other 2004 4-cylinder car. I'm 6' 4" and fit pretty well,find the seat comfortable and driver position good. A requirement was that I fit in the back seat, which I do, with no headroom problems (Camry failed this test). Handling is good with sport suspension and tires--twisty roads are fun. Brakes have great feel but are a tad weak,the antilock brake system works well. Engine is smooth and has zing. Tranny is uncanny, as is the cruise control. Interior is stylish and practical, heating and a/c work fine. A slight buzz developed after a bad Spokane pothole. Exterior is good- looking,somewhat stubby rear end--if you like gaudy, get a Pontiac.

Favorite Features

Engine, drivetrain, roominess, comfort, automatic dual zone climate control, great fuel economy, runs on regular, 6cd in dash good sound, taut handling while absorbing bumps fairly well, reasonably quiet interior, affordability--$21,000 new and they'll bury me in this thing, won't need to buy a casket!

Suggested Improvements

More powerful brakes. A little tighter attention to assembly, though overall the car was well put-together. To those who complain that you're just one of the accord-crowd, get a classic jaguar and you can enjoy quality alone-time with your repair manual.

My Accord Coupe

2004 Honda Accord EX V-6 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I've had my accord coupe for over four and a half years and I'm am happy with it so far. Other than a few rattles from the interior and my stereo needing to be replaced (which was covered by my extended warranty) it's working out great.

Favorite Features

Great power and handling, it never leaves me wanting for just a little bit more power to merge into that fast lane.

Suggested Improvements

Although I always have my ac on and I'm not scared to step on it, it could use better fuel economy. I'm only getting about 18 mpg in the city.

Great Car and Speedy

2004 Honda Accord EX V-6 2dr Coupe (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I purchased the V6 Coupe b/c I needed a car that was comfortable, fast, and reliable. It also has Nav which I love (I drive a lot b/c of job). The Nav is very easy to use and I like the touch screen for all other controls e.g. AC, Audio, Nav, Trip computer etc. The car drives well, corners ok, but it has a lot of pep in it. 0-60 just under 7sec, stock. Leather could be better, drivers side bolster is showing wear, but its covered under extended warranty so I will be getting it replaced. Service not expensive, tires not bad, less than $100 each. Console does not click closed properly, started after 16 months.

Favorite Features

Nav, Acceleration, Rear spoiler, XM, Audio is impressive, comfort. I am 6'6" I have to lean back to fit b/c of headroom, but plenty of leg room.

Suggested Improvements

More reliable console. Audio jack input for mp3. Better leather for front seats.

2004 Honda Accord EX 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5M)

Review

I'm 16 years old, and my parents bought me this car because they knew Honda's would be reliable. I know I haven't had this car for long, but I have three older brothers, all of which were given an Accord, and I have two younger sisters who will also receive one. My dad has owned 6 Accords and we have never had one that wasn't reliable, and this one is no exception. It's great for a beginner driver because it's easy to drive. I feel safe in it, and it takes away a lot of fear in driving. The AC is fantastic, along with the radio sound quality. The 6 CD Changer is amazing as well :) I have no complaints about this car.

Favorite Features

The sun roof, and the AC. Georgia weather is hot, and I need air that comes out COLD. Also, this car gets FANTASTIC gas mileage, I can afford it on a part time job with gas at almost $4. 30 miles to the gallon on the interstate, 25-27 in the city.

Suggested Improvements

None whatsoever, great car for a new driver :)
