  • Great car - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    I just bought my crv a week ago. I love it. It handles extremely well, and is fun to drive. Everything is well thought out in the interior. I drove every mid and small size suv on the market, and the minute I drove the crv I knew it was the car I wanted. It has a reassuring solid feel to it, and high crash test scores ratings. The fuel economy is great,too.

    My first mini-SUV and it feels like a real SUV. The 2003 re-model transformed the CRV from a homely mini-SUV into a pretty hot car--especially the dark blue EX with privacy glass and leather seating.

  • The Ride Inside Is Hella Bad - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Got me a CRV EX model, cool ride and nice looking from inside and out. At first I was wondering about the 4cyl engine that won’t have enough horsepower like my old car V6. But after a month of driving it does have enough horsepower more than I expected. Why did Honda choose not to put on fog lights, front tire splash guards, roof rack and a bigger wheel for a high end model like other SUV in it class. Other then that this is an Excellent SUV for the price with good gas mileages. For all Honda owner, who interests of adding additional Honda OEM accessories go here cheaphondaparts.com I’m in the process of adding fog lights and front tire splashguard.

    Short, turning radius. Drives like car, but has the roominess of a larger vehicle. Quick acceleration.

  • A Lotta Bang For Your Buck - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    Before I bought this car, my main two concerns were price and reliability. Everything else would be icing on the cake. Shopping around, I realized that most the cute-utes were comparably priced depending on the model and options; so next up was the "outliving my watch" factor. All reviews, ratings, research, etc. lead to the CRV. I bought it without much worry and have been very pleased. Its not a 6-banger, but I live in Houston where hills are antbite-sized so the power from the i- Vtec remains steady and peppy. Its remarkably spacious and can hold five passengers even if not in complete comfort.

  • Just bought it! - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    I just bought my new 2003 CRV EX last Saturday. I traded a 98 Acura Integra and put some extra down. I had a great Sales person, but I mainly dealt with the numbers guy..They low balled me on my car, but I had researched on this site previously and was pretty confident. He tried to sell me the car for $26k which included a $1200 markup. I said no way.. Ended up 8k for my car, $22k (the asking price on the CRV) and put some down. Walked away feeling great about the deal. I love the spacious interior and the CD changer in dash. Lots of room and fun to drive.

  • A great value - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    The CR-V EX is the best value for your money. It comes loaded! Lots of room inside for a small size outside. Our labs love the roomy back seat! It handles very well but it rides a bit stiff and has a lot of road noise even though we replaced the tires with some top-quality Michelins. Gas mileage hasnt lived up to the sticker numbers, we get only 21mpg in mixed driving. Overall we like it a bunch.

  • My 1st SUV - Love It - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    After being in two accidents this year I decided to get a vehicle that was a little bigger and safer. I actually enjoy driving again. It handles well and I get great gas mileage, which was a concern. I have been averaging 31 mpg. I also love the space, I no longer have to borrow someones truck to get larger purchases home.

  • Very Reliable Car - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    I now have over 70,000 on this car that I bought new in May, 2003. I have had it in the dealership for just one minor issue. One of the front struts was not torqued down to specs and began rattling. The dealer fixed promptly and aside from oil changes, its run perfectly ever since. The gas mileage could be a little better. I can consistently get 25 with highway driving and about 23 with city and highway. The car is very easy to drive. It is easy to park and easy to manuever. Im 62" tall, so it could have a little more leg room. Especially since I rarely have anyone in the back seat.

  • Its the Best - 2003 Honda CR-V
    By -

    I am extremely pleased with my Honda CRV. It is well made, pleasing to the eye, very functional and a pleasure to drive. I purchased the all wheel drive model as I have a long commute to work. It turned out to be a very tough winter weather wise and my CRV performed extremely well. My best description is that I felt very safe in exteme road conditions. All you had to do was drive like you had some brains and the Honda never lost traction. I would purchase this vehicle again and recommond it to anyone.
