Pros: What do you like about 2006 Honda Odyssey?
The Michelin PAX Tire run flat system should be avoided AT ALL COSTS. That said, with exception of the Michelin PAX tire system, I like everything about my 2006 Honda Odyssey.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Honda Odyssey?
The Honda Odyssey Touring Edition does not offer the option of wheels and tires other than the Michelin PAX run flat system. Had I know the issues with PAX tires prior to buying my 2006 Honda Odyssey I would have avoided the Touring Edition like the plague and chosen a lesser model. I plan to replace with after-market wheels and tires the Michelin PAX system mounted on my Honda Touring Edition. Anyone able to provide technical specifications for such a change would be appreciated as Honda is aggressively thwarting such attempts to facilitate my change by threatening to void all vehicle warranties and will not return ANY of the warranty requests and support requests I have made by phone. The best improvement Honda could make to my Touring edition would be to offer alternatives to the proprietary and limited availability PAX tire system. The PAX system suffers from a number of deficiencies namely vibration issues not addressable by the multiple dealer balancing attempts performed (multiple and different Honda Dealers in three states), deficient tired tread life of in my experience less than 20000 miles, uneven tread wear characteristics and an over all clunky ride. Most disturbing is the total lack of availability of not only tires, i waited 9 days for my necessary to tread wear tire replacement at less than 18000 miles but lack of service personnel trained to actually perform the service. Additionally the stated fuel efficiency is not achievable with the PAX system mounted on the vehicle. Driver access to controls and vehicle functions are well thought out though a mute feature and channel tuning ability from the steering wheel mounted controls would be very beneficial. If you decide to buy a Honda Odyssey and choose the Touring Edition with the Michelin PAX system then you do so at the peril of your family and your bank account.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Honda Odyssey?
I would make fog lamps standard on EXL models and the PAX tires a ready option. The silver paint seems to chip easily.

2006 Honda Odyssey Review:
All who ride in it are surprised that a minvan could be so comfortable and easy to get around in. It is the best car I have ever owned.

2006 Honda Odyssey Review:
I OWN A 2005 ODYSSEY TOURING MODEL.SE HOW YOU LIKE BUYING TIRES EVERY 30,000 MILES FOR $1200-1300. AND, YOU CAN'T USE ANY OTHER TIRE. PLUS, YOU HAVE TO GO TO A HONDA DEALER TOGET THEM, IF THEY HAVE THEM. ALSO, MOOST DEALERS CAN ONLY GET TIRES ALREADY MOUNTED ON SOMEONE ELSES RIMS AND TAKE YOURS IN "EXCHANGE" .
OFCOURSE, NO ONE TELLS YOU THIS WHEN YOU BUY THE VEHICLE !!!!!!

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Honda Odyssey?
telescoping steering wheel, adjustable pedal heights, automatic door locking mechanism upon driving, seat memory on EX model and a moon roof that allows you to choose the amount of air you want (it is either open all the way or closed completely), Most of all, I would want better gas mileage in city driving.

2006 Honda Odyssey Review:
Over all, I am very pleased. I never thought I'd own a minivan. "Never say Never."
