Just a perfect blend of everything - looks, power, efficiency, reliability! Just right! Everything is sensible.

This is typical Honda at a great price! The ride and steering are tight- -just what one would expect with a Honda. It drives as good as my Accord. The cabin room is very accommodating considering this is tagged as a "mini- SUV". The 5-speed transmission shifts very smoothly and although this is just a 4-cyl 160hp engine, it has more than enough pep. The ability to adjust the rear seats fore and aft is a nice touch. The main factor in considering this vehicle was addition of the SE trim level(has leather seats)--I wouldn't have considered the CR-V, otherwise, and would have purchased a V- 6 EX Accord.

Luxury in a CR-V

The 2005 Honda CR-V SE is a great suprise to me. I owned a 2002 CR-V EX before I got the SE 2 weeks ago. The Diff is amazing.The trans. is smoother,Eng. noise is lower, and the leather seats are comfy for long rides. I have 800 miles on it and which are all highway so far, the CR-v holds it lanes and is easy to drive on the highway at all speeds-----sometimes you do not know how fast your going in the new HONDA CR-V Special Edition.

Bought this car in the midst of a nor'easter in February; it's been a great vehicle! It handles the road well and is a lot of fun to drive. I find myself making excuses to go out driving now, just so I can enjoy the leather seats, the moonroof, and the six-CD changer. My kids love it too, it's a great family car for day trips. I'm a very satisfied Honda owner.

The only complaint I could have is that it doesn't have quite as much "pickup" as I would like when climbing a mountain road. Still, it doesn't LOSE any speed. It's the most comfortable vehicle I've owned. Beautiful styling overall. I feel that it has the best parts of station wagons, SUVs, and minivans put together.
