Replying to: chrono (Jul 13, 2005 12:54 pm) I am guessing that the 2WD variant of a Pilot, if made, will be like the 2WD variants of the CR-V and Element - FWD. But that is just a guess. In my opinion, 2WD combined with VSA might not be too bad a combo outside heavy snow country or trail duty. |

Replying to: nowakj66 (Jul 13, 2005 7:11 am) I am hoping it looks a bit more like the Ridgeline in the grill and headlights and interior." According to a few sources I've read (all from Canada, actually), you'll get your wish.  Here's what one had to say: "Here are some notes from ******* ***** that was up at the Honda Of Canada Production plant last week and he got to look and the new Civic and revisions to Pilot (all new Pilot comes next year) Pilot details: New items - Back lit dash i.e. Accord - Rear entertainment system i.e. Odyssey - No front/rear filler panels above bumper - more vertical front end i.e. Ridgeline - smaller high intensity headlight bulbs in different designed housing - clear rear tail light lenses - grill similar to Ridgeline but solid horizontal bars - all new front/rear bumpers - very nice looking new alloy wheel" (from CarSpyShots.net). Just to confirm what others here have written, standard rollover-sensing side curtain airbags, Variable Cylinder Management (VCM), XM Satellite Radio, and 2WD models will most definitely be available. The standard Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) rumor has yet to be confirmed (to my knowledge, anyway), but is very possible.  Take care, Mike

Replying to: mike_belknap (Jul 13, 2005 9:22 pm) Back lit dash i.e. Accord ummm... as opposed to what? using a flashlight to see it? Is it NOT backlit now? I could have sworn it is. Rear entertainment system i.e. Odyssey Now I'm POSITIVE a RES is already available on the Pilot. Is it a different version?

Replying to: qbrozen (Jul 14, 2005 7:35 am) I too did not understand what was meant by the RES option beyond what is currently available. Since the info is a re-post from elsewhere its hard to know what exactly the original author meant.

I am really considering a 2006 Honda Pilot. I know it sounds silly, but I'm not a fan of the current front row headrests with the cutout hole. Any chance the 2006 will have a more Accord-like headrest?

Replying to: onlysurfer (Jul 14, 2005 10:14 am) But like many other Honda fans, I always hope they will make some little change that is important to me when the new models come out! |
