I LOVE that color!!! I wanted it for the Ridgeline.... but didn't want the "ivory" interior that came with it.

Great choice!!

Lucky you!!!

The Pilot had the red outside & gray inside in '03, then '04 went to ivory. I was hoping the Ridgeline had gone back.... but not in '06. I don't know know. I try so hard not to look unless we're in the market!

Did you get 4wd & Nav??

I love Pilots!

The color is great, it reminds me of Black Currant Pearl that was offered only on 1997 Accord SE Sedans.

Beautiful!!! - I'm sure you got a great deal on it? What do the kids think?!

yes on 4WD No on Nav or Res.

We drove the CRV with leather 1st ... To small ....
I drove a new Civic 4dr w/leather and the parking brake lever digs into my knee.
My salesman has a 07 Accord EX-L coming in with 7K but it is black so I will have to see it 1st before I get my hopes up

That is a nice looking SUV there. I looks like it will be a constant battle keeping that beauty clean.

Thanks!! and yes it will, but it will motivate me more to have something other than Gold and Beige

The clear bra will hopefully help out. I am having the Hood,fenders,grill,bumper,headlights,foglights and mirrors done.

My prince loves the XM too. I can take it or leave it. It IS kinda cool to learn about the traffic patterns in Houston early!

When we listened to the Disney channel on our way to DL in it... they seemed to play the same dozen songs over & over & over...... I'll stick to the 6 CDs. I rarely hear the same song on our roadtrips!

I'm sure I'll appreciate XM driving to TX!!

Do you plan to add a bug deflector or running boards or anything?

What I am wondering is if there will be more people buying the last year of this generation of the Pilot? Especially after seeing the new ones. I am not too keen on the new one revealed at the auto shows.

I ordered rear splash guards. Due in tomorrow.

It is going to sit until the clear bra is done.

I will have to install HD P/S and Trans coolers just to install a hitch for the bike rack.

I'm going to order weathertech floor liners http://www.weathertech.com/store/mvp...=805&Year=2008
