Looking for the Best Prices on a New SUV?
Try the WhyPaySticker.com Way and Save Some Real Money
The Old-Fashioned Way
1. You can't leave. You're pressured to buy the car today, without the chance to comparison shop.
2. Endless negotiation. You're stuck for hours going head-to-head with a salesman.
3. You're overwhelmed by numbers. APRs, fees, payment schedules—you have to sign right away and there's no time to think.
Our Dealer Network
We generate millions of dollars in sales each month for the dealers. By using our website as the middleman, you can save hundreds of dollars on your purchase. Why do dealers work with us then? Because of the 50,000 cars sold each day, fewer than 500 are sold through our network. That’s a drop in the bucket for the car dealers, but a bottom line price quote for you.
In addition, we'll show you any available manufacturer Rebates & Incentives for your new car.
The Back Door to Savings
A dealership’s Internet department prices its vehicles to maximize the number of cars it sells, not the profit per car. Manufacturers decide the allocation of vehicles and dealer perks on the basis of a dealership's volume.
Coming in through the "back door" levels the playing field for your negotiation and tells the dealer that you have done your research, that you know about rebates, hold-backs, multiple price quotes and all the tricks of the trade.
When you deal with our contacts in the Internet department, you get a firm price quote, and oftentimes the paper work is already prepared when you walk into the dealership.
Depending on your location, sometimes the dealer will bring the car to you at your home or office for a test drive, walk-around, and ultimately delivery.
We keep referring customers to friendly Internet Sales Managers, and they keep selling cars at incredibly low prices.
The WhyPaySticker.com Way
1. Start from the comfort of home. It's so easy with free, no-obligation Internet price quotes from Accredited Dealers.
2. Make dealers compete. You know you'll get the best price with competitive bids from multiple dealers.
3. Finalize the numbers on your terms. Finish your negotiations on your time, then go to the dealership to pick up your new car.
New 2012 Honda CR-V Overview
For 2012, Honda completely redesigned the CR-V compact crossover taking an already impressive vehicle and improving it even further.
Starting on the outside, the changes to the CR-V are more subtle than groundbreaking. Much like the Civic which was also redesigned this year, the CR-V will look very familiar but there are differences. Up front is a new, larger grille and headlights, while in the back the CR-V loses the rounded rear pillar for a more filled out look with taillights that climb up the sides of the car.
Not much has changed under the hood for 2012; the CR-V keeps the essentially the same engine and transmission, but improvement have been made that have increased fuel economy by 2 mpg both city and highway compared to last year. The CR-V marches on without the V-6 option that many of the other crossovers in this segment offer, the only engine option being a 185-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder that is mated to a five-speed automatic. A re-worked all-wheel drive system is available as an option.
As previously mentioned, efficiency has improved thanks to engine improvements a new “Econ” button on the dash that when activated changes throttle response to make the CR-V more efficient. Fuel economy now sits at 23 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway (22/30 mpg city/highway if you opt for all-wheel drive).
Similar to the exterior, the interior also gets a new look for 2012 and a few new handy features, including rear seats that fold down to open up a large storage space in the rear with one handle pull. We had a chance to test this feature out at the LA Auto Show and it was one of our favorite things about the new CR-V. The standard features list has been expanded and now includes Bluetooth® connectivity, air conditioning, USB/auxiliary audio inputs, and Honda’s intelligent Multi-Information display (or i-MID) which sits above the center console and displays information such as fuel economy, range, music/artist info, or even a custom wallpaper you can upload. Optional features include leather upholstery, heated front seats, navigation system, automatic climate-control, and a backseat entertainment system.
As far as safety is concerned, the 2012 CR-V adds a standard backup camera, a standard feature not usually found in this class, which offers three different views and makes reversing a cinch. The CR-V is an IIHS Top Safety Pick and also offers six airbags, traction control, and antilock brakes all standard.
The 2012 Honda CR-V will compete against a couple of other compact crossovers that will come out of the next few years, including the Ford Escape and the new Mazda CX-5. But the CR-V more than holds its own, with a great mix of practicality, fuel economy, a low base price, and more standard features than ever.
