any comment or review on the new 2007 honda crv?

hi, i am a sales manger for a Honda dealership and besides the reviews from company's such as motor trend and JD and Powers i can also speak from a more customer based review. we have had alot of people coming in cross shopping the all new 2007 CRV with the Toyota and other competitors and after driving them all the CRV seems to be their choice for their next vehicle. With Honda's reputation superior gas mileage high resale value and low problem per vehicle ratio just to name a few people are buying the car quicker than we can supply. With the features of the new crv we now have a luxury crv (leather, navigation) that also we have been told looks similar to the Lexus and other more high end vehicles... anyways hope this helps you with a different kind of review, one that is given by the buyers.

Personally, I think the CRV's are ugly.

I LOVE the new CRV!!! I want to commend Honda for doing such a great job on this marvel of machinery! I was driving the other day and saw (from the side) this thing that kind of looked like one of the new Mercedes SUV's and kind of didn't,so I said Hmmm...... what could that be? Then it turned and I saw the Honda logo and I was like WOW!!! that's a Honda?,it looks too good to be a Honda!!! I just want to let Honda know now that they are guaranteed at least one customer. Why would anyone want to spend $50-55K when they can get a nicely equipped CRV for about $25K? Plus you can have the benefit of driving it forever without any major problems. With the Benz you have to pay out the nose for repairs and you probably don't get a life as long as the CRV. Keep up the great work Honda.
