Best SUV I've ever owned.

Purchased my 2002 Honda CR-V in 2017 for $4,000. It's now almost 2024 and it still runs like new, well close enough. LOL Everytime I consider buying a newer car I'm reminded of inflation and the high cost of everything. So in 7yrs of ownership this car has Cost me about $3,000 in repairs. The car still looks great inside and outside. It's actually worth more than I paid for it 7yrs ago. I'm 72 and drive this SUV daily. Best SUV I've ever owned.

Still running at 476,000 miles

Still running. Best car i’ve ever owned. some creaking noises in the cabin but the fact it’s still running is incredible. the 2.4L engine is the best engine honda has ever made. It starts up every time, even in the blistering arizona heat. The only repairs is the rear bumper from a fender bender. ZERO engine repairs. If you change the oil, transmission fluid, coolant, and the timing belt regularly, it’ll run like new for forever.

Mine still is running great at 121,000 miles

I purchased this car three years ago in 2017 for $4,000 with 102,000 miles on it. The body was perfect interior pristine. It did however develop several oil leaks on the motor which were fixed for $800 in repairs. I'm now facing in 2021 a possible new AC compressor needed for around a $1,200 . And it has recently developed yet another small oil leak that I don't think will be costly to repair. As much as I think I should just buy a new car I can't deny the fact that this car looks and runs great. Well it's now 19 years old. It's still looks brand new. I'm thinking it's okay to put in $2,000 on this great car if it'll last me a couple more years. Fingers crossed.

It is a very reliable car.

I have had this car for 13 years. I love the Honda CRV so much, I bought a 2020 EX-L Model. This car still runs great.

As my first car, it’s the perfect choice

This car is great! It’s the best by far of the others I looked at and test drove. It’s in fantastic condition for being a 2002, the interior is clean without any rips or anything, really nice. It drives nice and smooth, and being a Honda I know it will last me a good while. If anything, the sound quality on the radio/speakers could be better. Other than that, I’m very happy!
