  • No! Not a minivan!! - 2004 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    I bought this thing and had to give up the last vestige of my bachelorhood: my 86 VW GTi. Yeah, right, it drives just like a car. Seriously, since i have 2 kids and a wife, I could not ask for more. 240 HP (wish that was in the VW!) is best in class, and it moves quite nicely. Its also one of the lighter minivs available. My two under 2 are separate, and we can get past them to the 3rd row easily. The 3rd row actually IS comfortable - says my Mom with the bad back. Knowing Hondas reliability, this thing should last into their puberty and - dare i think it - i may be able to teach them to drive in it!

  • There is no better value - 2004 Honda Odyssey

    We looked for more than half a year for the perfect minivan, after having made a terrible mistake with a Chrysler Voyager. We looked at Freestars, Siennas, Quests and well, we left aside the Town&Country and teh kings of plastic: Montana and Venture out. The Odyssey offered an unbeatable value. We hesitated to purchase the van with the new generation ante portas. But it is close to being perfect with minor flaws such as the placement of some buttons and the dashboard is a bit dated. But you get a powerful engine, great seating comfort – all for thousands $ less than at N&T. We would have liked the DVD, but people apparently stand in line for those cars.

  • Reliable - 2004 Honda Odyssey

    After 2 weeks from buying it, we knew we had bought a winner. First tried the Chrysler T&C, wow what a big mistake. After 12 repairs under 30 K miles on the Chrysler, we were ready for something new. Honda ride is excellent with a low center of gravity and very little road noise. The car is an overall perfect 10 except for 2 minor qualms. Needs temperature gauge. Also, Honda needs to improve the gas mileage of this van. I experience 14-15 mpg in town, which is better than the Chrysler but Id still like to get 25-30. Id gladly trade some power for 25-30 mpg or better yet put the Odyssey on the front of the list for a hybrid engine.

  • Happy with our Honda - 2004 Honda Odyssey

    This is our second Honda and we love it. Honda certainly gets it right in terms of fit and finnish. Believe it or not, we chose this over a BMW. We thought for every day use this car drove just as nice so the extra expense of the BMW was nothing more extra expense. Personally Id prefer a full console to the flip-down tray. Other than that its great....quite fast too.

  • 2004 best value - 2004 Honda Odyssey

    My wife really loves the odyssey even do there is not much room for discounts and the fact that I paid 1000 dollars over sticker.

  • Best of the Best - 2004 Honda Odyssey
    By -

    This is my third Odyssey I had a 2000,2002, and now 2004.Before my first honda I owned 7 Chrysler mini vans from when they first came out until 2000.I trade in every two to three years. After owining the Odyssey I would never go back to Chrysler. I always bought Chryslers since I was a kid, but since I have been buying Hondas, the is no comparison. My oldest son has an S2000, and a civic, my youngest has an Accord. You cant do better they last for life and still run tight and smooth.
