i dont own a crv but i been looking into getting as a daily driver ....does it lack in power ,eg. up hill or accelerating onto a freeway?

 

depends on what you normaly drive if you have a porche tthen yes it would seem slow if you drove a fiesta then it would apear to haul a$$ but its realy not that bad i like mine its get up to autobahn speed decently and can cruise at about 85 without problems and all i have done to it power wise is an aem cai
its worth test driving the newer models are a bit faster but more expenisive theres thing i like about both but cant recomend either more i like um both but cant aford them both right now but wish i could

 

well i drive eg boosted ......i just want something that will get me back and forth to work .....i mean like if i had full house (5 people) the crv wouldnt struggle going up hill or accelerated on a onrump to a freeway. that's my concern???

 

The newer ones definately have plenty of power. Especially a 5 speed. It's actually very quick for an AWD SUV. If your planning on having it packed with people I reccomend a Second generation 5 Speed.

 

like he said
ive had mine packed and it still did fine didnt seem to make any differnce but the newer models are faster
i dont have problem on most hills and the one i have problems with i have in most cars that are faster

 

Sadly...I must admit...
My 98 crv, and my bros 02 crv..raced from a stoplight one night for ***** and giggle..
we let off at 40mph, and they were dead even..

 

ok thanks something to consider

 

My mom's did fine when I packed 7 ppl in it not including myself (the driver). I had to pick up drunk friends at some club. I had no problems on the on-ramp. Its an 03 automatic.

For those who will ask how:
1 driver
1 in passenger up front
4 in row seat
2 in trunk

 

i like my 05 crv as my daily..its nice....i drive a 98 itr k20 so i wish my crv had more power.......thats my 2 cents..... over all im happy with it.......

 

thanks for the input....

 

i have a 2005 honda crv
just getting through with the warranty period

any power upgrades available?
