Probably worth the money..

2017 Honda CR-V EX-L w/Navi:Problems: (1) Honda-Bluetooth-Smartphone automatically connects only 80% of the time..20% must force-connect from the car.. (2) Navigation map out of date already..how can we do updates?.. (3) Armrest slides forward while getting in car and leaning on the armrest.. 2017 Honda CR-V EX-L w/Navi:Observations:Positive: (1) Love those blind spot indicators.. (2) Love SiriusXM radio.. (3) Love the flash drive USB capability.. (4) Love backup & side sensors.. (5) Love the backup camera.. (6) Love the ease of power steering.. (7) Relatively comfortable for a small car.. (8) Nice large mph indicater.. (9) Nice bright letters & numbers on navigation display.. (10) Love the heated seats in Winter.. (11) Love the mpg achieved in town & on highway.. 2017 Honda CR-V EX-L w/Navi:Observations:Negative: (1) Need more legroom in driver's seat..the driver is in the car far more than the passengers in the 2nd row.. (2) Car engine sounds like a little truck..our 11-year old CRV engine actually sounded better.. (3) Lane Keeping Assistant "shudder" is horrible..should have a type of "beep" instead..decided not to use it.. (4) Console functional design is horrible..extremely inconvenient to use for storage and to reach ports & items.. (5) Gas gauge design is horrible..why should something that has to be viewed constantly be so difficult to read?.. (6) Very few nooks & crannies for storing things..our 11-year old CRV had many more places to store things.. (7) Print is extremely small at the bottom of the dash board display..virtually impossible to read in daylight.. (8) Why no storage pocket on the back of the seat behind the driver?.. (9) Why no 2nd hook for hanging a clothes bar from side to side across the 2nd row seats?.. (10) What on earth do you do with the storage cover in back of the car?..

Great bang for your buck

I got the loaded version of this vehicle and absolutely love it. Very spacious inside but I still feel very sleek driving it. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a mid-sized SUV.

Great Car

This is a great little SUV. Has a lot more room than I ever thought it would from looking at the outside.

Great quality car for a great price.

The Honda CRV is the best car I could have pictured for myself. It drives well, is always dependable, and looks very slick. It was my fist car I've purchased and my local Honda dealer, Fischer Honda, made it an amazing one. They were positive, easy to work with, and happy to give me the car Ive always wanted.

Sweet vehicle

This car has great driving performance. I was sceptical about the 1.5 liter engine but it performs wonderful. A little more road noise than I expected but adequate.

3rd CRV for me

Keeps getting better. Safety features are exceptional. Can't so better for the price. This vehicle is very reliable and has better room for storage than models of similar size.

Great runaround car with comfort

Excellent SUV with all features, went with the Touring model, with the navigation, traffic warning and many other features, I really enjoy the car. Looked at a Pilot, but couldn't justify the mileage difference or additional cost. Really satisfied with the CRV Touring!

First new car I've owned.

Like it, been looking at it for 3 years. Right size for me. And like the adjustable set back. Haven't had it long enough to tell you what I like about it. Just got it yesterday. Like the color and the leather seats.

2017 Honda CRV EX AWD Review

really happy with the CRV so far (1700 mile) Averaging just over 32 mpg. Love all the safety features. And it has plenty of power going up the mountains here in NC. Only problems so far are the cruise control does not slow the car down enough on long steep hills. And on the narrow country roads, the lane departure warning goes off sometimes when you are still in your lane. But I do have that set at it's widest sensitivity. And I can shut it off just pushing the button. But over all, very happy with my purchase!

Love the new redesign 2017 CR-V.

I test drove a 2017 CR-V. I really liked how it drove. 1 thing that is new on the 2017 is where if you feel drowsy & the vehicle crosses over the yellow line the whole steering wheel shakes to wake you up & applies going over the white line. The only thing is the back tail light isn't flush with the vehicle. It looks like it has bat wings. That is the only thing I didn't like about the vehicle. I really love the interior & the way it drove. Only wish I could afford to buy 1.
