Honda Odyssey - 2005 Reviews

We bought our 2005 Honda Odyssey Touring used with almost 50,000 miles on it two and a half years ago.  WE LOVE IT!!  Honda changed the body and interior styling in 2005.  One of the things they changed was the location of the gear shifter from the steering column to the dashboard.  We love the location of it now.  The steering wheel is smaller, which makes it feel sportier, not like your driving a huge boat of a car.  It has the triple thermostat control so that driver, front passenger and rear passengers can all decide themselves what temperature they would like.  The leather captain's...

We live in Illinois and drove to Ohio to get our Odyssey.  We have the 2005 touring edition.  It rides so comfortably. The only complaint I have is the wind noise......it's not terrible but it's definitely there.  Our kids love the DVD player.  I love that it can be controlled from the front seat.  I've seen other entertainment systems that only have controls on the unit itself which makes it very hard to set up and run for the driver.  This van has so many options......GPS, heated seats, dual climate control, steering wheel controls for the radio (which includes XM satellite), cruise control...

We bought a one year old used 2005 Honda Odyssey three years ago. It has been the greatest family van ever! The only service it ever needs is oil changes- and the van actually tells you when that needs to be done- it has a service light. And guess what- the oil doesn't need to be changed every three thousand miles like the oil and lube places make you believe- my van requires an oil change approximately every six thousand miles. You can see the oil life of the current oil but scrolling through the odometer so its easy to see whn that oil change is coming! I drive seven kids to school every day...

its an amazing car with the luxury and style priced just right, i love the cruise ocntrol to save gas, heated seats and best of all it has held its market value even in the last 4 yrs. tat we have owned it for.this is an amazing car with a lot of power , even though the fuel consumption is on the higher side, the speed and and the pick up is reall good.  its very comfortable to drive it. we have done a comparison between and lexus and bmw basc models this car beats them hands down.

we have a big family with kids we all can fit in very comfortably with a twin stroller and a single stroler, we...

I love my Odyssey.  It is stylish ( for a van), drives like a dream, has power side doors,  side windows that open, and is roomy enough for my family of five.  Nobody has to sit next to on another if they don't want to.  Also the van sits 8 passengers, which is great for carpooling to school or after school activities.  Very comfortable for long car rides.  Huge cargo area even with all the seats up.  Back seat folds down to give you a gigantic cargo area.  I have put 4 bikes in the back (before I got my bike rack).  I love my van and you will too.   Only complaint is the fabric in the...

I was against mini-vans for all the same reasons most people are. However, my husband finally convinced me to get one and we wound up getting a used 2005 one last year. It is now my all time favorite car! I wish I had gotten one before we had kids. It drives really well, has so much space, is great for traveling and for hauling big items, has lots of storage space and cup holders and is really kid friendly. 

The Honda Odyssey is the best car that I have owned.  I love the cup holders everywhere - I think there are 9. 

 This car is easy to drive and doesn't break down even though I am hard on cars. 

My Odyssey does have a change holder.  I cannot think of any negatives about the Honda Odyssey.
