  • First Mini Van - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    I think this van is great. I always told myself that I would never get a minivan, but with kids its a must. I think its the best looking minivan on the market, both inside and out. So far I havent had any of the problems that some have complained about like excessive road noise or squeaking. This van has tons of room and the backup camera is awesome. It drives just like my accord which makes driving it much easier for my wife. Out of all the vans I researched, this had the highest rating and now I see why.

  • Best Van Available - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    I love the Odyssey, its by far the best van currently available on the market. The RES is great, the gas mileage is good. Odyssey has roomy interior of high quality and excellent laid out. The standard safety features including the rear camera are the best available. A great ride, over all.

  • Great minivan for a family - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    This is our first minivan, and we absolutely love it!! We looked at every Crossover on the market, Sienna and Quest, and this was by far the best value for the money. Seats 8 comfortably (3 kids in the back, 1 in a car seat) and 3 adults in the 2nd row. It was a little tight for the adults, but not uncomfortable. Mileage isnt bad for the category & better than SUVs. The rear seats easily fold flat, although removing the 2nd row seats takes a little getting used to. We love the built in window shades for the kids!!

  • Almost Perfect - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    Dont judge it by my 9s to most people this car is a 10. I just think you can improve on everything. Great van. It runs great, is extremely comfortable. The fuel economy is good but not great. I did find the highway mileage impressive. I got 29 mpg average with luggage and 3 adults and 2 babies. City is around 20 mpg, still pretty good for its size. Try that in a regular suv. Its a van so performance and fun to drive not what you expect in a van but its a great ride. Everything else interior, exterior, quality, and reliability is summed up in 1 word Honda. I would purchase the extended warranty though only because lots of bells and whistles that can break.

  • 2008 Odyssey Touring (NO PAX) - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    Overall, its a great car. Already over 1000 miles on it. Works like a champ and drives great. Be sure to buy it without PAX/Runflats. We waited for 08 so we could get normal all season radials. Went through Costco buying program, cost $37,500 (500 over invoice)

  • Great Vehicle so Far! - 2008 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    This is our first Honda and we couldnt be more pleased. I am an engineer and appreciate what they have done to produce such a versatile vehicle. My wife loves the van and I have to say that I love it also. No problems so far. The ride is excellent and the handling is great. I have a high performance sports car so the comparison is valid. We went with the 08 because of the newer engine technology, options not included on the 07 model. and the new look. Pricing was higher, but we feel it was worth it. I just asked my wife if she had any other comments and she responded "I love it".
