"I researched all the facts about the Odyssey and it's top competitor and felt that my family would get more bang for our buck going with the Honda. We love the inside of the ExL trim and especially appreciate how easy it is to use my navigation system which is controlled by the knob that is ergonomically and strategically placed at a location for the driver to reach. My kids love the wide view windows for the front and sides. Initially my husband and I were resistant to the exterior design changed from the Odyssey look in the past, but a second look revealed that it's a nice sporty look that is sleek. The driving experience is smooth and comfortable. I am impressed by how tightly I can maneuver this vehicle around. My husband and I bought this car knowing that were putting our money into a reliable brand and vehicle."

"We got the EX-L w/o looking at other brands due to the Odyssey's reputation. We've owned this minivan 6 months so far, driving responsible in all terrains except snow/mud, and have ridden and driven minivans before. All the seats in this car, except the driver's seat, are too low. If your passengers are 5'8'' or taller, than don't get this car. This is not the first time Honda abandoned their great designs and features e.g. the previous generation Odyssey. Nor is it the first time they stagnate their innovation. I recommend either the 2011-2013 Toyota Sienna or Mazda 5."

"We love our new Odyssey! We traded from a Dodge Grand Caravan and there is seriously no comparison. We love the sporty style and all of the options that come with the EX-L and the kids live the DVD player. Looking forward to driving it for many years!"

"Honda has made a great product in the 2012 Odyssey. We have only had it for a short time but it has already become part of the family. Very versatile."

"I went from a BMW X5 SUV to a minivan. At first I was cautious about this change, the more I drive the Odyssey the more I love it."

"We bought this car new in 2008. True, it has great resale value and true it seats a lot of kids but it is a tinny, poorly engineered and overly complicated ride. There are a lot of little gremlins and the dealership is a nightmare to deal with, which is my biggest complaint. For instance... They tried to charge us for an issue that I fixed in from of the mechanic in three minutes. I am the most laid back guy in the world and my blood begins to boil when I pass the dealership. I will never, never, never own another Honda again. If you buy one of these things I hope you enjoy spending time with mechanics...."

"We love the flexibility and comfort offered by our Honda Odyssey. We have three young chldren, and it is great to be able to fit three car seats all in the second row, while still having tons of room for bicycles, strollers, and other things behind. We often have relatives visiting, then we use the third row also and still have plenty of cargo room behind that. The Odyssey drives very smoothly. Despite its size, it still has a tight turning radius to make parking eaiser than you might expect. Highway fuel economy is very good. In suburban and city driving, the economy is not as good as we had hoped, but still abotu 17 MPG."
