Overview & Reviews

The 2005 Honda Pilot receives a new 255-hp engine, along with numerous functional changes. A tire-pressure monitoring system has been added, and EX models with leather get vehicle stability control. Slightly increased fuel capacity helps extend driving range, and a revised power steering pump provides improved on-center steering feel. Inside the cabin, the instrument panel has been tweaked with ambient lighting and a six-disc CD changer for all EX trims. A driver footrest has been added, and leather-upholstered EX models can now be had with a sunroof. The LX now has standard keyless entry, and all models get an integrated remote key and fob. Honda has made slight frame changes this year that resulted in improved IIHS crash test ratings.

• Roomy interior with eight-passenger seating, versatile storage and cargo-hauling abilities, many standard features, comfortable ride, smooth power delivery.

• Mediocre towing capacity, side curtain airbags not available, feels big behind the wheel.

  Great Car!! - 2005 Honda Pilot
  By thrilled owner - December 4 - 4:58 am

  Ive had my Pilot for almost 6 months now and I love it!! The storage is great...drink holders for everyone too! The seat warmers are great. Has great "get up and go" and very easy to handle when driving. Smooth and quiet. I absolutely love my car and am so glad I have it!!

  I find the Honda Pilot to be an excellent quality vehicle. Its interior design gives the driver and passengers exceptional comfort and room. It is a true eight passenger vehicle and affords comfort for all even when loaded to capacity. The Honda Pilot handles well both around town and on the highway. One only needs to sit in the vehicle and close the door to experience the solid workmanship.

  Nice Product - 2005 Honda Pilot
  By impulse_88 - December 2 - 6:30 pm

  Awsome car. Very roomy for a family of 5. Well designed interior especially the radio controls on steering wheel. Rides very smooth, though it will remind you that it is still a truck. Has generous amount of storage compartments.

  By mom of three - December 1 - 10:11 pm

  My entire family has enjoyed our 2005 Honda Pilot. The high safety ratings are a must for us. We owned a Honda Odyssey prior to this vehicle. It was totaled when a semi 18 wheeler slammed into the rear end of us. With the protection we had during the accident, I think I will always buy a Honda. We were skeptical about the Pilot at first but we have not regretted it for a moment. During our vehicle shopping experience we drove several SUVs, including the Mercedes. None of the others compaired to the Pilot. My fourteen year old daughter is hoping she will be handed the keys when she gets her licenses in a couple of years. So..... it must be pretty cool to teenagers too.

  I wouldnt give my Pilot up for anything - 2005 Honda Pilot
  By Sivilay Thiphakhinke - December 1 - 9:32 am

  I have had my Pilot for over a year now and it still runs as well as it did when I first bought. I love the way it handles. The AWD is great and it makes me feel so much safer. Ive driven other SUVs and the Pilot is by far, my favorite. My niece even went out to get herself one after taking mine out for a test drive.

  05 EX with NAV - 2005 Honda Pilot
  By THD - November 26 - 12:50 pm

  Overall this was a good purchase. Dont like that the passenger seat does not have power. Even with Premium gas we have not been able to get the stated gas mileage of 22. It really eats gas over 70 mph on the highway. :-( Also, dont quite understand why you cant get both DVD and NAV. The rear seat climate control does not adjust fan speed, only temp. Very peppy for take off. Also, first smaller suv I have not been afraid of rolling in high speed manuevers. Very much liked the safety ratings. The 05 did not come with side curtain air bags, but for $5000 more, the 06 did. The 06 also came with a variable speed motor which greatly improved its gas mileage.

  Love this car!!! - 2005 Honda Pilot
  By Crystal Berry - November 19 - 9:06 pm

  I have always wanted a Pilot. The fun in driving and being a passenger is great. It rides smoothly and is comfortable. The navigation system has been fantastic. What I do not like is the noise when a window is open and the opposite window is not. I would not trade the car in for this. It is very roomy for passengers.
