Sneak Peak of the 2007 Honda CRV
By JLP | August 28, 2006
Here’s a preview of the 2007 Honda CRV. This might be one of those cars that people either love or hate. I don’t like it (so I guess that means I hate it).

Just curious JLP, what is it you don’t like about it?

Adam,
I don’t like the black space under the grill, which kind of makes it look like they glued an old Honda Civic front end on top of a larger vehicle. I also don’t care for the way the window slopes down in the back but the roofline doesn’t follow (you can’t really see it in this picture).

I kind of like it. Keep in mind that the older style of CR-V (we have a 2005) isn’t necessarily that pretty to look at. The other thing I’m not crazy about is the larger engine. Yes, it’ll increase towing capacity, but it’ll also push mileage down. The CR-V has always filled the niche of an SUV for people who don’t really need an SUV (if you know what I mean). With our family, I need carrying capacity, but I don’t need a huge fuel bill.

Looks a bit better overall than the old CR-V, but basically the same as all the other “Cute-utes”. I bet it’s bigger, too. They always are!

Honda has never been known for drop-dead gorgeous styling, so this doesn’t surprise me. People buy Hondas despite the styling, rather than because of the styling. The front end is way too busy. But then, I’m not much into SUV’s in general.

I like it…I think it’s sleeker than previous models, and certainly nicer looking than it’s larger brother , Pilot…The Pilot just looks off kilter with those dinky donut tires and that big body….

When will the Honda Civic LX model for 2007 be out?

[...] So, after looking at the Edge, I looked at the 2007 Honda CR-V. I wasn’t a big fan of the CR-V until I started looking at its specs. According to their specs, the CR-V gets 30 miles per gallon. [...]
