Hey there Honda fans 👋

Welcome to this month's edition of the Classic Honda newsletter. Whether you’re a seasoned Honda vet, or you just bought your first one, we're glad to deliver the Honda news to your inbox.

Here’s what’s ahead:

  • The Odyssey: Best Minivan Money Can Buy

  • It’s Finally Here! The Honda Prologue

  • Blast from the Past : 1996 CR-V

The Odyssey: “Best Minivan” Four Years Running

According to U.S. News, the Honda Odyssey is the No. 1 “Best Minivan for the Money” for 2024 and 2025. This is the fourth year in a row that the Odyssey has taken this title. We certainly agree.

Number one on the list and number one in our hearts

Lucky for us, our Sales Consultant Jimmy gave us a full tour of the Honda Odyssey Touring and its family-favorite features. Check it out!

The Odyssey puts safety first, and it’s obvious with Honda Sensing. Various sensors around the vehicle help keep you in your lane and notify you when a car is approaching. There’s even a function to ensure that the power door doesn’t close on anyone or anything.

MagicSlide 2nd-Row Seats give a multitude of configurations for whatever you need. Did we mention they can be adjusted even with carseats installed?

Camera views offer a variety of perspectives; from normal, to wide, to top-down, you can see it all with the Odyssey!

CabinWatch gives you a live view of the backseat, so you can keep an eye out for the passengers in the back. CabinTalk lets you talk to them through the rear speakers and even through their connected headphones!

The third-row seats can recline, and even fold down into the trunk to become a utility vehicle. Whatever you need the minivan for; family functions or transportation, the Odyssey can do it all.

The Odyssey even holds the brake for you with brakehold; give your feet a break (and brake) when you’re stuck in traffic.

With features like these, it’s no wonder the Honda Odyssey has won “Best Minivan for the Money” four years in a row. Prioritizing safety and comfort, the Honda Odyssey is the perfect vehicle for any family of any size.

Blast From The Past: The 1996 Honda CR-V

It's 1996. Minivans and wood-paneled station wagons have taken over the highways, and lucky for us the Honda CR-V is born. Perhaps the perfect minivan-station-wagon-combo to perfectly meet in the middle.

Wanna go camping? No problem, this 1996 Honda CR-V comfortably transforms into a flat bed. Wanna eat a sandwich and play a game of cards? That’s easy, this CR-V has a portable picnic table in the trunk.

The CR-V these days still has the charm and style we’ve grown so fond of, with even more options and upgrades to choose from. I myself have my eye on the 2024 CR-V Sport Hybrid… 👁️👁️

It's 1996... What Are You Driving?
