Got the 2011 Odyssey after trading my 2007. Lots of perks on the new one. Like the design not boxy as the previous models more of a JDM car but built in the USA. Have room for improvements but in all it is the best minivan out there.

Suburban for Odyssey

We traded in our 07 LTZ Suburban for the 11 EX-L Odyssey. COULD NOT BE HAPPIER! We have Triplet 5 year olds that we wanted to keep in their Britax seats so had limited availability. Wow! What a dream this "trucklet" is. I never wanted to be a mini-van owner, but this is heaven on earth! The Odyssey has much smaller exterior then the Suburban, but more interior room! Comfortable, sporty (2011), ease of use, seat capabilities FAR exceed the Suburban. We wanted the Mercedes R Series or the GLK and the Odyssey's options/ease of use blew the Mercedes out of the water! If you have multiple children and want a fun and comfortable ride try the ODYSSEY you will NOT be disappointed! Delighted!

Never Honda V6 again

Stay away. Granted we bought CPO, but it just kept having problems after problems. Biggest issue was the engine, Honda makes worst V6. Misfire was a minor...ever driven when two cylinders go to sleep? Not fun on highway! Then we also had “suspected crack” on engine block. Well, even with CPO and within the miles Honda America wouldn’t stand by its warranty clause. While car sits without engine at honda dealer, repair bill kept piling up and no resolution. My happiest day was when we got rid of this piece of trash. Transmission was super sluggish, but come to think of it was probably due to the crack on engine. Interior was decent, AC worked, infotainment was typical Japanese system that makes no sense…. oddly third row seats felt much hotter as tire well heat up rapidly, generating heat inside the car (despite recall the heat issue never got mitigated…yeah good going honda engineering) We all know Honda changed its course in mid-2000 to become “another Toyota” , and here’s the perfect example. A poorly designed, poorly assembled, mass produced piece of junk. My friends who also owned odyssey and guess what they no longer drive honda. They also had engine issues in one case she paid out of pocket to replace engine, ouch. My advise is to stay away from any honda V6 models, just not worth. Honda should stick to 4 cylinder little cars.

Our Third Odyssey Should Tell You Something!

Nice size for city driving with easy parking and reasonable cargo space. Good visibility and easy to drive. Engine and drive train are durable and ride is comfortable. Some road noise, but partially caused by mud and snow tires. Very nice climate control system and comfortable entry and exit from vehicle. Dealership service was excellent and have never needed anything other than routine maintenance.

Delivers on the Hype - Buy It!

Bought the E-XL on Memorial day and this review is based off 3000 miles, and one 700 mile trip to Ontario, including 2 adults, 2 children, and a Great Dane. I am a tough critic and feel that this car delivers on most of its promises. Driving 13 hours straight revealed some pros/cons. On the pro side, it was great to see MPG at 27.6 for our trip. In town, our mileage is closer to 18 mpg. Handling was precise at any speed, even with torrential rain. Cargo was amazing - Imagine a full grown Great Dane standing up, along with a weeks supply of clothes, food, and fishing gear. Plenty of room to spare. On the con side, visibility was good, not great. Console has too many bells & whistles.
