Was happy to learn my insurance went down with the CRV vs. Hatch. I guess because Honda Sensing wasnā€™t available in the Hatch when I got it (it was a few months after I got mine before the sensing models were produced) and itā€™s standard in the CRV.

Man I love that sandstorm metallic - wouldā€™ve gotten that on my ā€˜18 hatch if it was available.
The Sandstorm Metallic is even nicer looking in personā€”the metallic flecks really shine. Like the Sonic Grey Pearl, it looks matte in pics, but shines in person. Love it!

I would consider it if it had black interior
Funny, I like the beige in both of our CRVs
(Prefer it to the black interior my hatch had). They do have the black dash and accents, but with the EX, I can see being concerned about keeping it clean.

I like the ivory seats, looks luxurious. I did get seat covers to prevent stains though. Once it's older I'll remove the covers.

Very nice upgrade. I am contemplating trading the hatch for a CRV or an Accord. I need more space.

Very happy with my CR-V! Saw in Car & Driver that the Honda brand was tops in fuel efficiency. Still averaging between 31-34 MPGs. Have you driven one yet, Nismo14?

Never driven one, just the Accord because my mom just got one. But I am very intrigued by the new look of the CRV.

Any regrets on no nav or leather? That package is out of my budget, just wondering how bad I will miss it.

Mine is an EX-L so I have leather but I bought a ā€˜17 with 12K miles so I could get the leather. Steering wheel is also leather-wrapped. No navigation isnā€™t an issue with Car Play. My husbandā€™s is an ā€˜18 EX. Donā€™t mind the cloth seats, but Iā€™d add leather on the doors & arm rest if you get an EX. That seems to be where dirt shows. The EX has heated seats, too. The other thing we added to his is an autodimming mirror with HomeLink garage door opener. Both are standard on EX-L, as is the auto rear lift gate.
