Do you like the '06 redesign? - Honda Pilot

shudog · 07-29-2005, 12:42 PM

OK, personally, from what I've seen in the posted pics, I really don't like the new redesign. But what do the rest of the piloteers think?

I said I would not like it if it looked like the Ridgeline....but I changed my mind...I like it...

Don't really like it but it would not stop me from buying it at all.

I voted it's okay. I bet I will like it better in person though. I had the exact same reaction to the Ridgeline when the pics came out versus the first time I saw it in person.

Ditto. I voted "OK", but I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person.

I think a lot of us will change our minds when we see it in person. I know I did on the Ridgeline, especially after seeing the tailgate on the Ridgeline. Even the most clear photos we have see still have some concealment of things like the badge on the center of the grill. The white version we saw seems to have more bright black trim than the blue version, maybe just the color.

Then again, a lot of us making statements have a vested interest in the 03 - 05, we already own one.

When the 06s come out, we will all be one big happy Pilot family.

I'm not so sure I like it. The headlights are a little "Escalade-ish" to me. And while the foggies are integrated in the bumper more to my liking, they now look like an afterthought.

Like the wheels and body-color door handles, though. Side markers are a nice touch, too.

As for Honda styling, I think Honda/Acura styling is nice.....much better than the square slabs they're producing over at GM.
