Leslie,

You can see this folder dedicated to Stream and Ody users. Got some complaints about the ICE (sound wise) and other stuff which i may have missed out.

Heheh, i wish i was on the Z4 however...

But at those kind of times...even your butt would get sore in a 7 series. More of a sound insulation kind of thing. And maybe getting a ahmat to drive the car for you while you sleep.
I volunteer to be the ah mat..

No lah, I really like the Odyssey. You know me lah, if I get a car, I won't let it stay stock one. So, I am just imagining how I would do up an Odyssey if I own one. I wonder why Honda don't do a 3.0 litre version (as in the previous generation).

Here are the 3 top things I like about the car:
1. it's really slick-looking (especially the front)
2. it drives like a car
3. its automatic folding 3rd row of seats is really cool

Only 2 things I don't like about the car:
1. one is the center console where the ICE headunit is located - it sorts of sticks out and spoils the front dashboard lines
2. the other thing is that the fake "wood" is a little too "fake" for me - but hey, this is nothing an aftermarket mod cannot fix.

Oh, one more thing, for a change, I won't get it in black - looks a bit like a hearse.

Ryan, can you show some pics of the Modulo bodykit?

Ryan,

U r makin my Mit Grandis look naked........sigh; also, yr Barney really looks good after the kit n grill change. I like the front look; when I bot my Grandis, the H. Ody was also being launched. I still went wif the Grandis for the followin reasons:

1) marginally cheaper (abt 5K dat time compared to the basic H. Ody)
2) better specs; things like DVD TV screens, Rikecool, 17" rims, 2-tone leather, light sensor, etc etc etc
3) n somehow the high MPV feel appeal to me more as I felt MPV shld b high abv the sky.....haha.

No regrets till now n it has been 4 months since I got the car; only complain: fuel comsumption veri high, using the 2.4 litre Mivec engine.

my 2 cents

Cheers
