Honda has lost its way on the rear panel on this one..... That "dog leg" or "lightning bolt" is not working for me....

There's something very wrong when Honda can approve such a messed up rear design. How did this happen and what kind of crack are they smokin' ??

Is it me or does their 3.5 V6 seem underpowered at 248 hp and 250 lb-ft?

Designers need to be tried in The Hague.

Manufacturers do stuff like this and then complain that no one wants to buy minivans.

Did they paste the back of another van onto this one to create it? Awkward.

agree with all of the negative sentiments expressed above. Whoever approved the "lightning bolt" should be struck down with a real lightning bolt.

Aside from the Accord Coupe, how come Honda cant design a decent grille anymore?

As for the third row glass, I think its pretty unique but its too much going on with the (i know its petty) exposed sliding door track. According to motortrend, Honda said the track mechanicals would have made for less interior shoulder room in the third row... (?) *shrugs shoulders*

Anyways, I would NEVER pay 45K for a "minivan". No matter how good it was...
