Great car

Purchased 12 Odyssey to replace 2002. Basically the same engine with ungraded trans. The interior styling is much improved. Pleased with the value for the money

The best van!

The Odyssey vans are by far the best! Every few years, I like to get a newer model. They are safe and so roomy! So much space! The interior is so nice. The seats are the best! Very reliable.

Value safety and room in one package.

My needs were very specific because I have a large family, this car has the most flexible layout for car seats with the appropriate tether and latch points. Honda styling on the interior as well appointed, very comfortable to drive, AZ to park as well considering its eyes. Probably will drive this car as long as it allows me to, and then immediately replace it with the same, newer version.

Best all-around vehicle I've ever had

This car met all my needs. Carries grandkids(with DVDs), gets good gas mileage, and is comfortable to drive. Only negative- a little hard to get into for 6'3" body.

Honda Odyssey is a van you will love for years!

This Honda Odyssey is so fun to drive. It is great for trips as you sit up high and see the road well. It has comfortable Captain Chairs in the front and middle rows and a nice bench seat that folds down to give you lots of cargo space. The Honda's are known for being so reliable and having one of the best resell value. Just keep it serviced and clean and so your routine maintenance and it will go hundreds of thousands of miles!

Honda Odyssey is the van leader!

We traded an Odyssey after researching to upgrade and the others don't match up. Honda has great features.

We love our Odyssey!

This car meets our family's needs perfectly. We love our Odyssey! We researched our options extensively when it became obvious that we would need to replace our former vehicle.

A/C Controls Invisible

One annoying feature is that the radio info is huge on a screen, yet the a/c controls are tiny. Fan speed should be a rotary dial as should temperature control
