We were also talking about this as well (over at CSS forums). It does look awkward I'm afraid to say.

Anyways, personally, for me it's just decent. Nothing less but nothing more......

P.S.
I'll see what Nissan has to offer when they fully release the new LHD Quest (and its RHD sibiling the Elgrand).

Ugh I was supporting the concept version of this car so much

Good job Honda way to mess up a decent design with terrible, just terrible details.

Clearly Honda has every intention of building the ugliest cars, pickups, vans, and semi luxury vehicles on the planet. They got that 100% right.

This is horrid, like 3 different vans came together.




I simply am growing tired of their ugly cars all over. STOP BUYING THEM!

Sadness. Just pure, plain sadness. That such a good company can fall so far down, and keep falling... and keep falling, with no end in sight. Really a tragic situation. First, the Northridge earthquake, then Hurrican Katrina, then the oil spill, and now this.

Oh... and the frumpy rear taillights are a dead ringer for the Imprezza.

Dear Lord!!!! I cannot believe what I'm seeing. What in the he!! is Honda thinking? So pathetic! Absolutely horrid. Disgusting. It's a laughing stock. When management signs off on a design like this, there's something horribly wrong with your company. Honda, get a clue!! I'm not a mini-van kind of guy but this is disappointing, to say the least. PATHETIC, PATHETIC, PATHETIC.

Look at that huge hole in the body for the sliding door. They just need to cut the whole rear end off.

No,,No,,,NO!!!!!

Dear god Honda,,,,,when in the world are you going to start LISTENING to what few customers you still have left and start offering something that they actually want to drive,much less want to be seen in. The LAST of the conservative vehicles in your lineup which always retained semi-decent styling, and you manage to even screw this one up. It's hopeless, I am convinced now,,you guys really DON'T have a clue. I am not a minivan type of guy, but I always had a secret love for the Oddy,,,tragically that love has turned into a beauty and the beast syndrome, with this new Oddy being the star.

Swagga wagon,,,congrads b/c the Oddy has just acknowledged defeat in your presence!!!

Notice how most every Honda/Acura debut is in silver to hide the ugly.
