This is just for you Brandon:

What Edmunds.com Says: The Sienna may be the top dog for now, but don't be surprised if the Odyssey is all that and more.

pwn3d. A barely year old Sienna already outclassed. Sucks being wrong doesn't it?

I think the center console/dash could have been made a little bit more flowing, because it still resembles the current gen dash a lot, but still not bad.



Not exactly a "hot" vehicle among the ATOT crowd though:

What it could possibly look like in the interior

 

[ElFenix]

looks like the old one

 

[BigSmooth]

Front end looks kinda Kia-esque, overall it looks... like a minivan. Not that looks matter all that much in this segment. If it drives like the current Odyssey and has all the features people want, it will continue to sell very well.

 

[Doggiedog]

The front looks like the MPV but the inside looks very nice.

Style-wise yes... but the MPV is taller and narrower. Inside looks very comfortable.

this pic just puts ideas in my head that minivans will soon be riced too...

 

[DemonHunter]

Looks like they added the accord front with a different grill. I guess if it aint broke, don't fix it too much.

I thought this was going to be a spy shot of a new movie.... 2005 Space Odyssey :frown:

[Doggiedog]

Still looks like an MPV.

 

[BullyCanadian]

[jagec]

Yeah, I was like, WTF? They did 2010 already now 2005? LOL

 

[Mayfriday0529]

so are these people just driving them in regular streets to test them?

should 05 model cars already be out in dealers?

 

[RagingBITCH]

Wow, somebody asking for more minivan shots? Here ya go: not much but it's something:

[toant103]

i like it. Real window in the back.

 

[Cat13]

Do all of them have the shifter up on the console like that? Looks like it would get in the way, plus it just doesn't look right.

 

[BigSmooth]

I like that in the new interior shot there is an issue of Car & Driver lying between the seats.

 

[RagingBITCH]

It does look like it might get in the way, but I'm sure that's a standard design now.

Looks like it's gonna have fold-into-the-floor seats also.
