2008 Honda CR-V EX-L review from North America
"The CR-V is the best small SUV on the road"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Can't believe the CR-V does not have automatic headlights.
Even on the fully loaded model, the roof rack still is not standard. I wish the doors would lock automatically, I don't know if my other car even had that, which I had a few years and never paid attention.
In the morning, from sun glare you can tell the paint is so thin that can easily chip and nick.
General comments?
I really don't like the look, but I love how it drives. So far my gas mileage is great; I gone over 500 miles and only filled up once. Right now I'm on the second tank and the needle is between full and half (I think that's 3 quarters).
Love the stereo and speaker system, and I love the MP3 and XM that goes with it.
I really really love the color I picked. The color is royal blue.
I love the fact that I have lots of cargo space.
It rides great everywhere. I'm very glad I got this vehicle.
