So I'm car shopping at the moment for my first car. And I really wanted the honda pilot but after sitting in it i was like there's no way i'm going to be able to drive this thing lol but i'm starting to like the cr-v. any opinions on the car?

and what color looks better?
right now its between red


and urban titanium

The urban titanium looks good, but I think it'll look boring after a while. I say red. I don't really like any silver, gray, gold type colors but it is you that matters.

I think the CR-V is a great SUV on a car platform. Handles well, doesn't guzzle gas too bad, good materials, stylish, comfortable. The people I've talked to love their new CR-Vs. Go for it!

[aznfishyfart]

yep, never hear anything bad about the crv
i dont like flashy colors on SUVs so i vote for the titanium
but its up to ur own personal taste

[twix0rz]

My dad was looking at a CRV a couple months ago and he really liked it.
The pilot was a little big and the crv seemed just right. haha. It would be a good buy.

I would say urban titanium.

[hailing from ny]

I recently visited Japan and Korea. I saw the CR-V's there, and they're a step up from the American version. Imagine Xenon projectors stock on your CR-V. Then again, lots of cars in Korea and Japan had them...

i drive the red one but it isn't like apple red, it kinda looks purple sometimes lol especially when its dirty

i like it in white but with the base model's black grill thing..i don't like the chrome that comes with the cd changer package..it also looks nice in green, that double mint gum wrapper green

but yeah my parents got this..i had no choice in whatever they wanted..just grateful for a car

[KrnJen]

I own the baby blue CR-V. I love it, but i have to say white looks the best.
Between the two colors you have... i have would have to say the urban titanium.
I put in HID's in my car so that it looks light blue-on-light blue ! i wish it had projectors =[

[radicalCHOPSTIX]

between those two colors i'd go for the the urban titanium . if i remember, the red was like a dull red. but ultimately i'd go for the white cuz its so much sexier!

the cr-v was going to be my #1 choice for the next car i wanted to get.. but after test driving it it felt like it didn't have enough power, although that might not matter to you. i also test drove the honda pilot which was pretty nice, yea i get what you mean when you say its big but the quality of the pilot just seems much nicer to me in the end.

looks-wise

the old crv was a better design. the rear tail light looks weird and the grill under the front emblem look weird IMO

[versep]

you're going to find the crv is going have somewhat of a hard time going up hills

but a great car otherwise. i prefer the pilot.

[Laxntiga]

Get the Titanium Gray color. It looks much better IMO, also the cheap plastics contrasting against the red paint make it stick out and the plastic look even worse.

I have a '04 CR-V. About 120k miles on it.

In it's history aside from regular maintenance, I had two issues which were completely resolved with the help of Honda.
I think some part in the engine, the one that gives the car the gas, not injectors, not fuel rail... but some component I forgot, failed. It was out of warranty too. I took it to Honda and asked them what's up with that and that I had no problems before with all the Honda's I drove before and I told the guy I love Honda's. The guy over at my dealership said, well... what is it exactly you want? (came of a bit rude), but I told him straight up. I cant remember what I said EXACTLY, but it went something along the lines of.... "well, I have been a loyal Honda fan all my life and wouldn't want any negative experiences with Honda..... I want it fixed for free." He said, "well, all you had to do is ask. Bring it by tomorrow and drop it off for us, we have the part in stock, we'll have it installed and ready for pick up the same day". When I went back, I wore my fake Honda pitcrew racing t-shirt I bought in China for 40 yuan. They loved it.

It sounds bogus huh? Sounds like something like that would never happen in this day and age huh? Well... it happened to me!!! The other small problem was, I didn't change out the differential fluid? Whenever I turned, I heard a clicking noise. I took it to Honda, they told me whats wrong, I bought the fluid, went to my Korean mechanic, problem solved. I knew I could have just taken it over to my Korean mech and didn't have to do two trips, but after the engine issue, I tried my luck. I don't know about other Honda dealerships, but mine in PA are really nice people. No problems so far, I hope to drive it to 200k and beyond.

Only negative thing I can say about the CR-V is... they stuffed it with a 2.4L 4 cylinder engine. IMO, a bit small for a SUV. It's noiser than sedans, eh. Also, the gas mileage isn't as good as you would think. Trusty, reliable, dependable, inexpensive to maintain, AWD utility, a near perfect inexpensive work horse.

[efflorescent musings]

Since the CR-V is a small SUV, I would get the titanium one. It just looks better but it's personal taste.

Good choice for a car though. I love driving big cars.

[AznBetty]

CRV is awesome!!! its sooo spacious and comfortable.
and the back seats are a dream. so much leg room, compared to my '99 Rav4.
It even feels more spacious than the new Rav4's or Pathfinders.
it's a really comfortable drive, just a right size; not too high of a height that it feels like
youre towering over everything,and not too big that you feel like you cant fit through a
street when cars are double parked.
but then again, i live in NYC and you live in Florida, so youre streets are probably not as hectic.

Take it out for a test drive, and get a feel of the car.

I prefer the titanium color, cuz the red looks kinda old to me.

but mine is silver. i originally wanted the ice blue color, but my parents kept saying that silver would
shine better and look better than the other colors in a few years cuz of the metallic undertones.

get the CRV!!! less of a gas guzzler too!

no way... the previous generation crv looked bland as hell.. plus the spare on the hatch... = =

the old design was so boxy and outdated

the best looking compact SUV to me would probably be the vw tiguan
