2005 Honda CR-V consumer reviews

Has plenty of space, reliable, fuel efficient. stylish, great great resale value, when it comes to service or replacing parts, it's amazing to find pot how little it costs.

great car and great value love the feel love the way it drive and the way it looks. I love my sun roof when it is open. I love new radio and the speakers.

I think it will run forever. currently has over 305,000 Miles. Uses no oil between changes. Will run forever if requried maintance is performed. We also own a 2011 CR-V and are considering buying either another CR-V or a Pilot. For us Honda is the only way to go.

I've had my Honda CR-V for over 13 years. I bought it brand new. It's sporty, compact yet fits 4 passengers comfortably. I had a yellow Labrador when I purchased my car. She loved it! It was perfect for the dog park and passengers at the same time. The CR-V also gets great gas mileage. It's a perfect city car. It also performs well in the snow. I highly recommend the Honda CR-V!

We bought the CRV to save fuel on long commutes over our current vehicles, so far it's doing trick nicely. Our other vehicles are full sized pickups, and SUV's that aren't too bad for short trips, but with gas prices jumping back up again we really needed something that does better...

Great gas mileage, low miles, seems like a very solid car. This is my first foreign car so I wasn't sure if I'd like it. So far so good

I am a tall guy and like that I can drive a car with a little height Drives like a car and great to bring up to the snow and beach here in SO Cal .

Great inexpensive car...so dependable, AWD is awesome. Low cost to maintain. High resale, terrific interior. This is a great safe car and would highly recommend for young drivers. The Honda brand remains a favorite

I like how much head room and leg space there is in this car, even in the back seat. There is also plenty of cargo space and room for two spare tires. There is even a folding table that hides away in the trunk which is great for picnics on the road or camp outs. The biggest drawback in this model is the switch from a timing belt to a timing chain. Our chain went out and it took out the whole engine when it went. I am told this is very rare, but I'd rather have a mechanism that can be checked and replaced instead of a flaw causing $3000 worth of damage. Glad I had purchased the extended warranty

This car has met all of my needs. Leg rooms are very good at the front and back, and the trunk space is the best I've seen in any compact SUV. I would like to find a similar luxury compact SUV with the same amount of leg rooms and trunk space at less than double the price I paid for my Honda CRV but still couldn't find it, which is one of the main reasons I still couldn't part with it after 12 years.
