so why compare apple to an apple...
here's the deal... more of a people carrier with luggages (2-3 adult + 2 kids, 1 stroller 2 carseats)
which is more apt?
in terms of.
-space
-fuel consumption
-resale value
-sturdiness
etc
i have already some answer in my head but i wanna see other tsikoteers' opinion...thanks
Given both are in good condition, CR-V. Panalo sa resale value and space (esp. if you have kids and like going out of town). You can still find 98-99 units in good condition but the price may be higher then a typical '01 Civic
Sa fuel efficiency (esp. in the city), the Civic has the advantage though.
Current Civic - still a good car, but Altis is better hands down. No longer as charming as its forebears, rather bouncy ride, almost minivan-like driving position and lousy A/T, but good space, economy (M/T) and the badge are the reasons for its survival.
1st-Gen CR-V - very comfortable ride for a tall vehicle. I personally love the interior, both in look and space. Engine willing but economy is so-so. Get the M/T!
