I like the rear end look with the dual exhaust and the tail lights. It needs a bigger set of wheels on it and i am not a big fan of the front. Kinda reminds me of a Ford, though

yeah, everyone seems to dislike the front, except for the grill, I really don't mind it that much, everything else so far I have no complaint. Honda will most likely change some stuff before it comes out in the spring.

Looks like the current gen Explorer, especially the rear. The real question is what motor will it have?

Always wondered what a Tahoe and Jeep Liberty looked like if they had offspring.

When im looking to buy a Pilot I dont really care how it looks. (unless its super ugly in which that is rare for Honda to do)

Im more intrested in the safey features as well as every day comforts including fuel efficiency....so with that being said, any new gizmos for it? Better MPG?

that's actually the concept pilot...not the 2009...but they're saying the 09 is going to look alot like it. So take everything you like about it off and thats what you get.

YOu know, I saw this concept at the NY auto show this week and it doesn't look bad. Besides the rear that is too similar too a Nissan Pathfinder, I didn't have any other complains.

At 150% scale. I can live with the box. Afterall, that's what market reserach show we still want (Xb). The box will be great in getting that TV home.

What's up with the grill of all new Honda/Acura? It does not take much to just keep it conservative. If they want to be creative and modern, I think they need to select another market research group. Someone must have spiked the free fruit punch they served.
