  • HIP VEHICLE BELIEVE IT OR NOT - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    A VERY POWERFUL ENGINE AND SMOOTH ON THE ROAD. A LITTLE ROUGH IN THE CITY; BUT FEELS TIGHT. CAPTAIN SECOND ROW SEATS KEEP MY TWO KIDS APART. SOMETHING I DIDNT REALIZE WOULD BE AN ASSET.( NO PICKING ON EACH OTHER).

  • Three Car Seats - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    No more back aches. Loading three into car seats in an SUV was not fun, but with our Odessey, we look forward to getting out of the house. Great attention to detail and fun to drive. Quiet on the road and handles bumps exceptionally well.

  • Everything We Expected - 2002 Honda Odyssey

    Had a 99 Dodge Grand Caravan. What a difference. Lots more power, better suspension, handling, and ride. Read the reviews from everyone and dont understand complaints from those former Chrysler owners and the guy who was talked out of buying a MPV. We looked at the MPV. You must be kidding. That van(?)is not even comparable to the Honda. The Honda meets or exceeds all our expectations. Although, I dont understand why Honda cant keep up with demand. I think this is just a marketing scheme to keep the price up. But as long as Chrysler keeps marking their minivans up as high as they do, than the Odyssey is still a better deal. In a word: AWESOME!

    I love this van. I really wish that the vehicle could have a little better gas reading from the fuel guage. Showes empty even tho you have 5 gallons or more left in the tank. . And some other things I like to be changed is heather controls closer to the drivers seat.

    When my wife and I bought this van, we drove it to Yellowstone. Truly, never was a better travel vehicle ever built! This vehilce hauled camping equipment, 2 weeks of supplies and three adults from Michigan to Wyoming. Even in the mountains of Wyoming, there wasnt even the slightest bit of hesitation from the Odyssey. The seats were comfortable even after 12 hours behind the wheel. I would have no hesitation recommending this vehicle to others.

  • trade in for a new odyssy - 2002 Honda Odyssey

    Very comfortable, good handling, sits up high and easy to see out while driving. The back seat is comfortable to sit on. The cargo space and fold down third seats are very handy.

  • No other van comes close!! - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    Well worth the wait!! I drove just about every van on the market and decided nothing compares with the Odyssey. No rebates, discounts or special financing could change my mind either. This is a great, intelligently thought out van. It drives like a sports car and is extremely versatile for the family. Hauled the family and 2 dogs (1 being a Great Dane) on a 9hr. trip with no problems. Every other van manufacturer has alot of catching up to do!! This is THE MINIVAN for the "NON- MINIVAN" person!!!

  • our second - 2002 Honda Odyssey

    This is our second Odyssey. It replaced an 00. This one doesnt penalize me when I drive it.. our other cars are a 99 Prelude SH and 01 Acura CL.

  • 2002 - Odyssey exceeded my expectations - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    Ive read some of the previous reviews. How can some of you rate a 5 then put in your review that its the best minivan youve ever driven. Maybe the survey needs some idiot-proofing. Regardless the 240bhp engine, 5 speed automatic transmission, 11 cup holders, folding rear seat, and the huge array of standard features in the EX is incredible. I got mine for $1,500 under MSRP and absolutely love it!!!

  • Best car we have ever had, love it - 2002 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    I have a 2001 Odyssey XL, bought in February of that year. Absolutely no problems. Friends bought a Chrysler minivan at same time and within two months had a list of minor things wrong to take to the dealer. I have not had one thing go wrong with the car. Nor found anything minor thing to be fixed.
