1. Less plastic look on the interior.
2. Improve road noise.
3. Navigation System w/ intergrated entertainment system.
4. More comfort for rear bench seating.
5. Updated Instrument lighting.
6. Less pushy finance managers who cannot understand the meaning of "No, thank you".
 
Don't get me wrong. I traded in my '05 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab for the comfort and safety of a '06 Honda Pilot.

Well they can go more in the direction of big SUV a la Toyota Sequoia to haul boats or more in the direction of the Mazda CX-9 refined 3 row crossover / people hauler with AWD. I am hoping for refined crossover direction.

My guess for the Pilot is the sporty crossover and I think the next version of the Odyssey will go that direction also. The Ridgeline platform (modified from the Pilot) will spawn a brute SUV if needed.

2007 vs. 2008 by sagaliba

I just bought a 2007 Pilot. I knew about the redesigning of the 2008 Pilot before I bought it. Even though I hate the idea of owning a relative new car that is already "out of style," I have to say I like the look of Pilot better than the new MDX.
 
To me, the round-ish look of MDX looks more like a crossover than a SUV. Yea, I know some may argue that Pilot IS a crossover, but I still prefer the look of a SUV! (One reason I didn't even bothered to look at Murano)

if the '08 looked anything like that, then I'm totally glad I went with the '07 version...

Honda and green by jeepvan

really surprised after looking at Pilot, Odyssey & CRV
 
Both Pilot & Odyssey has strange green colors. Olive oil green, actually it is a lame grey color. Why cant they have a regular not-too-dark-not-too-light green color. The red tail lights on a green will look charming.
 
CRV has a nicer looking light green, like a mini-bmw. The only complaint about the crv its happy-protruding face. Still, CRV doesnt come with the regular green.
 
Odyssey finally came up with midnight blue color, which is fantastic of all the other colors. My opinion is they should have the regular green too.
 
Saw a regular green Pilot in Fry's electronics parking lot in sfo bay area. the owner has re-did the paint job. it was looking nice.
 
Honda will you listen ? ..... hate to see those slate green & amazon green ... who comes up with these ideas ....

A better Pilot and better than Veracruz by practical

Hyundai has a real competitive SUV now.
 
I like it a lot, value vs. pricing.
 
Honda is always my favorite. Besides the SHAWD, I wish these can be the options for 08 Pilot,
 - HID light, a must have for 35+
 - Proximity/Smart key, very convenion
 - puddle lamp / approach light
 - turning signal at side mirror
 - yellow rear turning signal is a lot safer than the current red one.
 
Also, can we not to have a truck-like front looking?

"turning signal at side mirror"
 
There already is a side signal on the quarter panel. If your talking about an actual Mirror signal, you can get them from muth.com, but I agree the mirror could use one.
 
"yellow rear turning signal is a lot safer than the current red one"
 
I second that comment.
