New 2007 CR-V EX-L in Tango Red -> 2 days

[ncoday]

10am this coming wednesday I get to pick up my new 07 CR-V in EX-L trmi with the Tango Red color!

I am so psyched. I tested it head-to-head with an Element SC and their was no comparison in my mind!!

I am very happy.

One question, anyone know if there are high-quality after-market all-season rubber floor mats available? The Honda OEM ones, which I got on my Civic, seem really cheap and not good quality.

I've not seen the Civic mats, but the OEM ones I got for our '03 Pilot (the CR-V replaced it) where very high quality (in my opinion). The pictures of the CR-V ones look similar, but I've not see them in person yet. They arrive on Wednesday.

I just checked http://www.superiorcarcare.net/wefl.html for WeatherTech's but they don't show them for the new V yet, it just has the dash after the 2005-. You might try to give them a call

[ncoday]

I sent an email to the people at Weathertech asking them when they would have mats for the CR-V.

I think I am just going to buy some cheap ones at one of the "-Marts" until then.

Congrats on the V. Post some pictures.
I got some rubber mats (black ones) and I did cut it with a scissors (very easy) to costume fit. I went with the rubber mats since winter is coming.
And I paid like $20 for it.

It has been 4 days, we need pictures!!! :)

I'm echoing sleeksilver's post. I know it's kinda intoxicating but please stop driving for a while, ncoday, and take some pictures of your new baby and share them with us.

[ncoday]

Ooopss, sorry guys!

I had totally forgotten :oops:

Will post pics tomorrow

[sleeksilver]

Sweet :)


Call up weathertech for mats, much better than what Honda offers....

[ncoday]

Weathertech does not yet have custom mats for the 07 CR-V. They said it should be a while. I do keep checking back to see when they came in stock. I will be ordering a set when they are available.

[ncoday]

Here are the pictures as promised!

VERY nice! I had thought about the red-looks great! :D

[liquidfuel88]

i love that color! :D

[joe cr-v]

Beautiful CR-V and and nice pix to boot!

[bluewho25]

Very Nice.
Good luck with it.

[sleeksilver]

Hey that gray leather isn't that bad!!! :)

Looks good!!! 8)

I absolutely love it!! Added a Garmin Nuvi 660 GPS unit and that thing is perfect and portable

[videone]

Where did you get the Nuvi 660 and how much did you pay? Everywhere I call they are on back order. Where did you mount it - pictures?

[ncoday]

I got it at Circuit City for about $825. For now I am just using the windshield suction mount. I am going to order the auto mount that adheres to the dash for about $40.

What places have you called?

[videone]

Best Buy and CCity in my area both have them on back order...I tried a couple places on line and same thing. How do you like the 660?

[ncoday]

I love it!

The screen is very bright and easy to see. I like how it is much larger than my Mom's Garmin c330.

I'll set it up in my CR-V today and take some pictures. They'll be posted in this thread by tomorrow morning/early afternoon.

There is a very excellent review of it here:

[partyboy1970]

awwwsome looking V :wink: ... its just like mine :D ... ok maybe a bit newer :lol:

[segfault]

Thanks for the pics. The red looks darker than it does in the brochure, which, IMO, looked a little too bright. The actual shade is just perfect!

[ncoday]

Here are the pics of the Nuvi660 as promised:

I just looked on samsclub.com and you can get one for $789.33 for the 660 and for the 360 it's $629.88. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the photos and the link...excellent review.

Nice V, I have the 2007 EX in Nighthawk Black Pearl with black cloth interior. I absolutely love it. I wanna get the Honda navi because it has the rearview camera.
