Should You Buy a 2004 Hyundai Accent?: In this case low price should not be equated with poor quality. The 2004 Hyundai Accent has proven itself as a dependable performer and Hyundai guarantees this with an outstanding warranty. For the money you get a car that offers a spacious, well-equipped cabin and for very little more you can enjoy a selection of comfort and convenience packages. The 1.6 twin-cam engine moves the 2004 Hyundai Accent along at a brisk pace and, unusually for its class, the 2004 Hyundai Accent features a fully-independent suspension system which brings with it a balanced combination of ride and roadholding. Responsive steering and excellent sightlines make the 2004 Hyundai Accent a fun driver. There are two body styles available, a traditional 4-door sedan and the 3-door hatchback, which Hyundai calls a coupe. The Coupe also comes as a GT with sportier trim and handling. For our money the sedan would be a best buy if it, too, was a hatchback.
