2007 Honda CR-V with 168k miles going for around 11k, worth it?
2007 Honda CR-V, 168k miles, sunroof, heated leather seats, etc. - no major problems. Going for about $11k. I'm very interested in this car and for the most part I'm aware Hondas are good for the mileage but I know more about Civics than CR-Vs. The mileage is the only thing that makes me pause - has anyone owned one before or own one now? How is it? Any information on how long they are good for/how many miles you can put on them without problems arising? I've had an '06 Chevy Cobalt for almost 3 years and have only put 20k miles on it myself so it's not like I put crazy miles on my cars, just thought I would get some feedback.
Have you shopped around for anything else in the $11K price range? If not you should really consider doing so. You can find all kinds of vehicles in that price range that are both lower mileage AND newer.
I did a 10 second search on Autotrader in my area (Minneapolis) and, for example, I found a 2008 and a 2007 Honda Pilot (a larger and nicer SUV than the CR-V), both with about 140K miles for the same $11,000 price. I also found cars like a 2007 Hyundai Azera with just 59K miles and a 2007 Hyundai Sonata with only 29K miles on it, both for $11K. If it were me, I'd keep shopping around for something with less wear and tear on it for that price.
Not at 11k. Honda had transmission problems with their models between 98-07 I say skip it
The majority of the running gear is from the equivilant era Civic. The price is too high for that mileage. You can get a good CR-V with those features and 40-60K less miles for that price.
In my opinion no, way too much money for such a high mileage vehicle. You should research all car values using www.kbb.com, www.nadaguides.com and www.clearbook.truecar.com
Since you say you put crazy miles on a car then you should seek out a lower mileage car. Even Honda's need routine maintenance and repair and the higher mileage any car is, the more likely longer term wear items come due on your watch.
- Why did my 2003 Honda Pilot engine just died while i was driving around 30-40 miles per hour? It virbrates every now and then when i hit 35-40 miles really bad of the whole car and I also have a check engine light and vtm-4 light on. I was able to turn off to a side street put in park and shut off and then started the car back up and it was fine again. Any ideas?
- Is it worth it to trade a 2003 Toyota Corolla almost 130k miles for a 2004+ Acura TL 90k-110k miles? This is my moms old car and she got the Honda Pilot, she gave it her old car to me as my first car, but I want to trade it for a nicer car but used Acura are expensive and every time I asked the sellers to trade my Corolla and says no. Do you think Acura owners don't like Toyota?
- I'm planning to buy 2005 Honda CRV, with 140K miles on it, how much worth do you think? It looks in a clean condition. @Lan K, the vehicle looks clean, inside out, clean title, and timing belt and water pump has been changed. He was asking $7000, and Now he come down to $5,600.
