2007 Honda CR-V EX-L review from North America
"Great car/suv, I love it and would not choose any other car. You have to drive one to appreciate it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with this car, the only thing I wish the headlights were brighter. though acceleration is adequate when passing the engine can get a little noisy but, it's less than id expect from a 2.4 166 hp engine so its no problem. there is a little more wind noise with windows shut then my old 2002 civic.
General comments?
This car is great. I love it and highly recommend it. this was my first SUV after owning a car a van and a sports car. It is very good on gas and at the same time the 2.4 166 horsepower engine is more than adequate. I am still surprised at the acceleration on this compact SUV... its hard to even call it an SUV, because it drives exactly like a car. the interior is very nice especially with leather, and man... there is A LOT of cargo room, especially if you move the rear seats up which only takes seconds. The handling is great, the car looks unique and I've had a few people actually come up to me and tell me I had a nice car. im not sure why a lot of people think it is a girl car, I think it suits the needs of males and females. Overall if you have a small family of if you are a young single male like me, this car is a great choice that will not only please you, but also keep you happy for years to come, as Honda's are known for their reliability. My tenant has a 16 year old 1992 Honda civic with 292 km and it is in amazing condition. So I look forward to having this for a long time. Id give this car an overall rating of 8.9/10. looks: 9 comfort: 9 reliability: 9 Fuel economy: 8.4 controls 9 Value 9.3 braking 9.3.
