The 2004 Honda Odyssey is the same minivan design as it has been for years. The newest thing in store for consumers is that Toyota and Nissan (for the first time) have provided real competition with mid-size SUVs. You may wish to consider that fact when negotiating price.
The V-6, 3.5-liter engine has more powerful with 240-hp. All 2004 Odyssey models have electronic traction control via ABS with their (EBD) Electronic Braking Distribution system. The option of a navigation system OR an entertainment system comes only with leather seat models. Drivers really enjoy the looks of the Odyssey minivan with the sleek, attractive design. The fact that the 4-wheel independent suspension makes driving smoother, also appeals to many user reviewers. It has excellent fuel efficiency, low emissions, and with the back seat folded down, 146-cubic feet of cargo space.
Owner reviews are pretty high for the 2004 Honda Odyssey. Now with standard side airbags, this vehicle has been awarded 5-stars in all crash test results. However, the Odyssey review indicates no curtain side airbags - that are available with the competition. This minivan comfortably seats seven people, and is probably going to add new features in order to keep its reputation as the best mid-size SUV on the road.
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2004 Honda Odyssey express strong satisfaction with its reliability, spaciousness, and family-friendly features. Many appreciate its smooth driving experience and strong V6 performance. However, some drivers noted minor irritations, such as engine noise and maintenance costs. The versatility and comfort it provides for families are particularly favored, while issues like the DVD player not functioning and limited towing capacity were mentioned as drawbacks."
There is nothing that I can complain about with the Odyssey. It has everything for the entire family. It's reliable, provides great versatility, the only concern I have is with the front end suspension, (sometimes I forger it is a VAN). I drive it everyday and it is great for shuttling the kids around while the dvd player helps keep the peace during long trips.
December 30, 2008No other car can you get as much stuff and people into. Very versatile with the fold down and removable seats. We have put over 200,000 miles with low maintenance cost. Easy access and comfort for all in the van.
January 25, 2015We bought it new at Koons Honda of Manassas in Manassas, VA when i was in ninth grade, and I describe it as the best damn car ever. It has every available option except the leather seats and navigation system. It is also a rare vehicle. Normally u had to get leather to get the DVD system, but in 2004, the last year for this body style, Honda made some with cloth seats, and we got one, silver with gray cloth.The DVD player no longer works, and is way too expensive to replace, so I just use my laptop. Since it is based on a car chassis and is lower to the ground than similar vehicles in its class, it handles like a dream and is incredibly agile. It has a powerful V6 under the hood that is fast while still managing to stay fuel efficient, all while taking regular fuel. The sliding doors can be annoying sometimes, but we love them most of the time. Everything with the exception of the DVD player is in perfect working order, and despite having high miles for a 2004 vehicle, it still runs and drives like new and requires absolutely no maintenance. If you are looking for a minivan, new or used, put the 1999-newer Honda Odyssey at the top of your list!

July 16, 2008Overall this car is a 10 out of 10. It's great for family vacations or going just around the block. The engine is strong as is the car in general. I would recommend this car to anyone. Simply put, it's great!
June 4, 2013It is really hard to find a minivan that's as reliable as the Honda Odyssey. I am so happy to have owned one. Other than the regular maintenance it never gave us any problems. I wish the look was a little sleeker, but I'd rather have reliability over looks!
May 29, 2012Great for hauling large items. Removable rear seats create a lot of room for boxes and other items. Electric sliding doors on both sides make entering and exiting the van effectively. V6 Engine is very reliable. Traction control helps in inclement weather.
December 25, 2012Positive: Interior quality is very high, Performance nice and agile, Braking is strong, Handling is very stable, Comfortable seats, versatility, storage, size, space, Design Ex and In, Gas mileage for a 7 seater is good. Negative: Magic Seats have to remove headrests, and it is all one piece, and engine is a little bit too noisy.
July 18, 2008Great family car, smooth riding, with enough space for everyone. Excellent driving visability front, rear, and sides. The automatic dual doors is a convenient feature to let everyone in and out easily, and the heated seats are well worth it on those cold mornings.
June 9, 2012I love the space and the ability to transport cargo when necessary. I REALLY love having the DVD player! It keeps the kids occupied during long trips! And we can listen to our radio stations of CD's in the front. Love this car!
May 10, 2013good family car,with V6 eng. power enough. very reliable and dependable!! good handling strong build and last, interior nice with exl model but litter bit suck on gas with 18 miles per gallon but fun to drive. good job!!
