It was my best car, ever until today. I fell as I was going out of the car. How? Some ladies in Malaysia wear long dresses; what we call "baju kurung", a 2 piece really, with top and bottom. The bottom, more like a long skirt, got entangled at the part underneath the driver's seat. If you look under the seat, the bottom part of the seat is not completely oblong in shape. In the center, facing the pedals, it was opened to house the lever to control the location of the seat, leaving a protruding element hooking my skirt. I incur injury to my foot, elbows and the side of my thigh. I am seriously considering raising a police report so that I can put up a case against HONDA for bad design. I own a 2007 CRV.

But i'm sure people will appreciate and accept the design after a while. well tHe_CuLpRit, i think at first looks, the CRV indeed looks ugly.

Is there such a thing as a Diesel powered 3rd-Gen CRV anywhere in the world?

In my opinion, the new R-series SOHC with drive by wire is more suitable. Honda made a good call. The K-series is DOHC. In my opinion, the new R-series SOHC with drive by wire is more suitable.
