No Beige ?

Early leaks suggested only black and grey. Official announcement confirmed only two colors for interior. And, unlike in Pilot, in Passport grey interior only the seats are grey.

they were so close to having me back

I’ve never seen beige (Ivory) in the Passport pics, even the early ones. Do you have any examples? Some of the pics I’ve seen show the gray, but under incandescent light that makes it look warmer-toned than it is.I guess Ivory isn’t “sporty” enough the the Passport. I would like the ivory interior as an option, or even better an ivory black combo. Having had two white Accords with Ivory or a Ivory/Black interior, it’s become my favorite color combo.

Having had beige interiors in my last two vehicles (300,000 miles!) I'm so ready for a change.

Wish Honda offered Espresso like the RDX, but gray or black will work just fine for me.

eek, I am not a fan of the RDX Espresso. But I'm torn between Parchment (beige) and Ebony (black). Did you not like the beige interior? Any problems with it? Or just tired of it and want something new?

Nothing at all wrong with beige. It was my "go to" for many years. I guess I just got tired of it. Plus the beige seems to show dirt more now that I'm getting more dirty here in Oregon retirement vs. when I was commuting in southern California.

Now that my seats are going to have ventilation, I might even go with a black interior. I'm thinking more and more silver Elite with black interior. (Have transitioned from gray/gray. )

Gotcha, thanks. Ahh, the So Cal commute... I remember it well. I'll be going with ventilated seats for the first time as well. Now that I'm in So FL I'll appreciate them greatly!

LOL, as I approach retirement, I have a 9-mile round trip drive, on two side streets, I've had enough of SO. Cal. freeways in my life..

Where are you in OR, Davis?

Retired about six years ago to Grants Pass (southern Oregon).

For my last full-time job in LA, I had a 110 mile round-trip commute form the San Fernando Valley to Ontario. That was only on the days I didn't have to drive to an airport and fly somewhere - which was way too often.

Yup - I had enough of LA freeways to last me two lifetimes.

Yikes, that is an unbelievable drive!
I was looking at the Bend & Redmond areas, but my wife doesn't want to leave our So. Cal. weather, but once I get a Passport I will at least be able to travel up that way...

I don't blame her. That's what I thought. We looked all over the southwest for years to stay in the milder climate. But the further you get from it, the more you get for your retirement dollars.

We've got a guest room. Take a road trip with your new Passport and come visit. (Maybe by then I'll have one too and we can compare notes. )

As long as we can go fishing and Sasquatch hunting I'm in....!

I'm not much of a fisherman, but I'm sure Mrs. DAVISinGP will be glad to fry up (or barbecue) whatever you catch (and clean) during the day.

BTW, the Rogue River is a very popular destination - it's very close by. So if you like fishing...just sayin'.

I understand, you really want beige. The leaks I referred to in my post were the the ordering information from the dealers. They are getting the info on what they can order way ahead of time. There were no beige interior indicated. We also know by now that it's not available.

I know, I am waiting to see if the 2020 has it, but doesn't that picture look like beige ?

The grey seats are pretty pale, I think under certain lighting they could look like that.

Grey and black only.
