| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | Less than some of the others. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | In comparing all the other reasons for purchasing a vehicle the CR-V was the better price. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | When I bought it, the price was competitive with other small/midsize SUVs |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | I bought it used so the price fit my current budget |
| Price of the Honda CR-V: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | Cost was a bit more than the Jeep, but for a less capable snow vehicle. Honda has a good reputation and resale value, but with the lifetime Jeep warranty the Honda was not a contender |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Much more expensive than a Rogue with similar features. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | high price = high monthly payments |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | The crv has a high sticker price compared to other brands of like vehicle. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | no incentives, dealer wanted close to list price. no way i ever pay list, never. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Paying in built-in premium for the Honda brand. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | Over 2k more than Grand Vitara which seemed much less cramped in the interior and better styled |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 156-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD | Its too much. The interior is some what plain. Not a lot of helpful features like a Message center. |

| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | good lease rates due to high resale value |
| Price of the Toyota RAV4: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | Price was high, dealer did not offer much of a discount or was willing to work with me on my trade-in |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | A base RAV4 is quite inexpensive. Fully optioned, the price can balloon by a third. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | V6 more. Not a fair comparison. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | No incentives |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | A bit more than the crv, didnt want to wait 3 monthes for a custom built one from toyo corp since brother works there. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | Too pricey compared to a Honda. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Almost $5000 more than a comparably equipped Santa Fe. Depreciation will be better, but I tend to keep cars long term so upfront pricing matters to me. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | Little more expensive than some competitors and no great financing rates either. I guess since the car is popular they know people will pay the extra. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | I have always thought that cars are way more expensive than they need to be. Toyota tends to be more expensive that most. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | The RAV4 was a bit more expensive than comparable cars. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD | Significantly higher price than comparable vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD | The vehicle is somewhat expensive, but the value is high because it offers alot for that money. |

| 2011 | 4dr SUV 180-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
One can see that engineers have pull at Honda. No part says "we saved 5 cents on every unit". |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Flawless bodywork and paint job. Excellent fit and finish on everything. Even the plastic pieces seem well made. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Te materials are firm but of good quality on the inside and the outside has great fit and finish as does the inside. The design is simple and functional. After a drive of almost 2000 miles we love it even more. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
The car is solid.... nothing cheap looking or fitting on it. No squeaks or rattles. Controls well placed and thoughts out. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
Everything fits, looks nice and has no rattles. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
First class fit and finish of materials. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Higher quality than competitors. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 156-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic AWD |
It is a solid car with no items that are likely to break. Doors close with a nice "thunk" Interior trim etc. just feels like quality but with no shiney frills. |
| 2004 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
They made it wash out simple |
| 2003 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
For a low cost suv things are just fine |

None so far |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
While i am sure the reliability will be outstanding, the fit and finish on the EX model does not compare to the Tiguan. It feels cheaper. I mean common, give us a decent console if I am to pay 30K |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The plastic strip inside the doors looked cheap, as did a lot of the interior. |
| 2002 | 4dr SUV 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
Interior panels are hard plastic. Lot of problems with the A/C in this model and the brakes have issues. |

Mine has been 100% reliable with no repairs needed beyond normal servicing. Forget the media-hyped recalls and check the reliability stats here and elsewhere...their at/near the top of most surveys. Check out the Car&Driver Cute-Ute comparison articles. The V6 AWD version topped all other similar-optioned vehicles...even the newer-designed models. And the 4-cylinder version is still seen as a safe purchase holds its own against the lower-optioned versions. |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Good quality interior materials except for headliner. Not quite as good as my 2008 Accord |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Tight fit. No rattles or squeaks. |

| 2010 | 4dr SUV 179-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic AWD |
awful rattles and creaks when turning from drivers side, major reason to sell it after only 3 months, 8000 miles |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Hard, very cheap plastics all over the interior. Creaks, rattles, squeaks and groans are plentiful in the interior. Road noise can be invasive at times. Very disappointing in a near 40k SUV. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Hard touch plastics for the price they are asking? No way! |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Interior has held up well, but there's way too many hard surfaces on dash & doors. But it's comparable to other value-priced Cute-Utes (under $30K) designed & marketed prior to 2009. Most auto manufacturers have focused on upgrading the interiors since the later 2000s, when they re-design their vehicles. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
Heating duct drains were not installed properly causing water to drain into passenger compartment. The evap cannister will fill with gas if you top up your tank beyond the first click at the pump, causing it to fail. Poor design. $1000 repair. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 269-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Interior materials are more spartan and more trucklike than competing models. Other than that, overall fit and finish is very good though. |
