What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Honda Odyssey
| Price of the Honda Odyssey: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | Got a new year old model on lease. Was able to lower our monthly payment. I just think we got a better than average lease deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | When we were shopping, I found that the high residual value of 2005 and 2006 Odysseys was putting me into the NEW market (only about $ 1,600 difference, with a full warranty) ... kind of a "no-brainer". |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | Was leftover with all the toys and nice discount |
| 2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | Got a great deal in MA although I live in NJ. Price is the main reason we choose this car instead of the Toyota Sienna. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | It was the lowest price minivan on the market in our area with under 75k mi. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Was able to pay cash for the 2002 Odyssey. |
| Price of the Honda Odyssey: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | Not much discount available. Cost would have been 15-20% more than a similarly-equipped Nissan Quest or Toyota Sienna. |
| 2008 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 241-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | High price when compared to competitors. |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | could not get Touring model without run flat tires in 2006 |
| 2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD | Minivan prices have pushed into the same price tier as luxury sedans. This can make it difficult for the frugal family to afford a car that is, from most other perspectives, ideal for their needs. |
| 2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | It is not cheap and even used one are expensive, but you pay for what you get! |
| 2003 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Compared to other minivans, the Odyssey tends to be a bit more expensive in capital acquisition costs. |
| 2003 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Nothing. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Same features or more were available on the Freestar for much less money. Unfortunately it was too small. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Very expensive for 6 years old, and probably will depreciate quickly with fuel prices rising the way they are. |

During the time we owned our previous Odyssey both the interior and exterior held up well hauling kids and pets. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The car is very well made, if maybe a bit too much plastic. |

nice fit and finish |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD |

Interior fit and finish is high; gives the sense of a solid well-built vehicle |

Leather seats are well-made, not a lot of cheap plastic in the cabin. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The switches and handles feel like they are made to last. They operate smoothly and solidly. The seat fabric looks and feels top notch. |

Very well assembled and materials quality is great. |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD |
Nowhere near the quality and workmanship of other Hondas. Built in Alabama instead of Japan - must make a real difference. |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Seat arms have sunk two inches on drivers side, Wimpy middle tray is tilted and always has been. Tires wore out because they would not hold air-reported to Honda, nothing done about it. Latches broke, everything feels flimsy. |
| 2003 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Built in Alabama by people with hangovers? |
| 2002 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 240-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Broken transmission. Owner can not compensate for bad design and manufacturing. Noisy. Rattles, squeaks. Doors stick. Window motors break. Cheaply made junk. Fabric wears out quickly,looks old. Paint thin and chips. Steel too thin. Dents easily. |
What Our Members Are Saying about Nissan Maxima Materials and Workmanship

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 290-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
A lot of thought obviously went into ensuring that this redesigned version of the Maxima is very luxurious and, given the price, is really how it should be in order to compete with the higher-end brand names like Infiniti and Lexus. |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Nissan Maxima: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Not to the standards Nissan use to be and are in other models. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 265-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The fact that the body rusts and the interior is kind of cheap. |
