The sizzle in the Steak
Front looks like a Q7...rear reminds me of Jeep/Dodge SUV's.

Front end looks WAAAAAAY better than the MDX.....but then again it does not take much too get a better looking front end than the MDX.
...and so far this is looking WAAAAAAY better than the RDX.....again, not too hard to design a better looking SUV than the
RDX.

At least it appears Honda is going to vanilla with a slight touch of chocolate syrup on this one.

Not bad. It looks like an evolution from the current Pilot, which I own in addition to my RL.

Finally, Honda's leaning away from the wussy look...

Moog is right: it does look Jeepish. 
....I'll go with the 2009 Nissan Murano in this segment.

I'm sure its still a great SUV, but after seeing in person at the auto show I dont like the new front end at all.

Is it just me or is the new Pilot really ugly?
I just saw this on the TOV site and I just could not get over how ugly this thing is.... ouch!
What is up with that front grill and the headlights? I think this is trying to battle with the 2009 Murano to be ugliest new SUV around....
I hear the Mazda designers laughing out loud now!!! LOL

Very disappointed. I wasn't expecting a home run, but not this either. Too plain with minor details that don't help at all. I think I actually like the current version better.

The CX9 is downright sexy compared to the new Pilot. I think we'll DEFINITELY be keeping our 2007 Pilot....looks much better....but the new one will sell like hotcakes anyway. The new Pilot simply looks more Butch than the last one, and the average non-enthusiast driver goes for that.

But I do like the interior a lot more than the current model. Notice the extra storage compartment underneath the armrests. Talk about tons of storage space. I bet the center console has storage space going all the way down to the floor, like it is in the Ridgeline.

it looks like a ripoff of the Land Rover LR3 or LR2. Wtf is Honda thinking? Now, I really like the current MDX a lot more than this pile of crap
at least it will get HIDs something that only the S2000 has in the Honda brand line of cars.
