Hi everyone! I need some advice/suggestions/feedback on deciding between the Sienna or Odyssey. Our family is looking to get a new van to replace 2004 Sienna with over 100,000 miles. I've read some positive reviews from both the Sienna and Odyssey, but its kind of a tossup to me. Which one would you guys choose between the two? Thanks for the feedback!

I would have to see the sales figures for this month, but I have seen only 2 odysseys on the road so I dont know if they are very well received...
I like the honda's interior, but the sienna wins hands down on the outside

Which trim level are we speaking about? Do keep in mind the Odyssey does not offer a 'sport' trim, while the Sienna does, the SE. And, have you considered the 2011 Quest? That has also been redesigned for 2011.
IMHO I'd take the Sienna, especially one in an SE trim. The Odyssey resembles something like a rocket ship, and those headlights look like eyes.

The Sienna over the Odyssey hands down. I was a big fan of the Odyssey from the last 2 generations. The latest one is a bit lost. There are many advantages to the Sienna that the Odyssey doesn't have, mainly a great warranty.
Toyota = 3 yr/36k Bumper to Bumper and 5 yr/60k Powertrain
Honda = 3 yr/36k Bumper to Bumper & Powertrain
Toyota = 2 years free maintenance & roadside assistance.

The thing is to get an Odyessy with features on par with a mid level or even base Sienna you have to pay 40k plus. I'm sure its a great drive but to me its no longer the best minivan. The sideview mirrors are not even painted for crying out loud.
The Sienna even in base and mid level trim offers bluetooth and other great items. It also offers AWD.
And the x-factor is you will frighten kids and make them think its Halloween everyday in the Oddy...I have sadly seen them in person and its horrific.

My vote goes to the swagger wagon as well. Honda said that they weren't able to hide the sliding door track, not because of the "lightning bolt" side styling, but because placing the track lower created more shoulder room for the 3rd row occupants. In a side by side comparision with the Sienna, it turns out the Sienna still had more shoulder room compared to the new Odyssey. ![Egads!](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/pat.gif)
Having the two year complimentary maintenance is also a plus.
