Looks pretty hot if you ask me, much better than the version we did get...

19,000 June sales and the title as the best selling SUV in America says the front end is fine just the way it is.

Now if we could do something about an optional V6.

The only thing I like better on that front end is the projector headlights. Other than that, it's an overdone CR-V.

I am not a fan of the new CRV's frontend styling but, with Dom. It seems that I see more of the current gen CRV than of previous generations combined. (A neighbor of mine has TWO. )

Also that there should be a V6 option.

The new CRV is significantly better than the last gen in driving dynamics, interior and from the b-pillar back is very nice looking.

For a small family, it's the near perfect run-about, handles crud and snow with aplomb, and is selling just fine without a V6.

I just dig the modulo front.

My parents got the new CR-V and it's a pretty nice car. I just wish it came with a couple more features for $26k like dual zone auto climate control.

I just scoped out the pics on Hondcars.com and I do like the interior. After getting 18mpg MAX avg on my Murano , I would almost consider "downgrading" to the CRV.

IMHO aside from the odd 'mustache' look on the frontend, it only needs a little more engine for my tastes. (....at least a K24A2, though it does not pack much more torque)

I actually really like the new CRV. It looks great. If the wifey pops out a couple more kids, I hink we're going to have to upgrade her Civic.
