    Thank you, Laura! I have been researching this vehicle for over a year and will be buy a 2014 Crosstour identical to the one you reviewed, minus the navigation. One important point you missed is how quiet this car idles and drives. It is in the league with the Lexus ES 350. And the ride is amazing!

    I"m adding this comment, late to the party, to help anyone who is considering purchasing a used CrossTour. This is an absolutely amazing vehicle. Either you like the look, or you don't, or you don't care;
    Frankly, I really like the bubble look of this car.
    I'd encourge you to stick with the 3.5 Liter V6, J35Y engine. At 70 mph with cruise, I can get 30 mpg but usually I'm about 20 around town and 27 on the highway for mpg.
    For me AWD is the way to go. I've made a number of mods, mostly cosmetic but one very rewarding mod was replacing the rear sway bar with one from an Acura AWD TLX, which was substantially larger in diameter. This eliminated the understeer I was experiencing. My guess is that if you bought the 4 cylinder, FWD version, which would be lighter, you wouldn't need to do this. And you may not be as fussy about handling as am I. I've always chased handling rather than speed, as this is what makes the car fun to drive on a curvy road using the steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
    Many parts are exchanageable with the Accord, many are not. I look at new cars every day and just can't find any car out there that I'd rather have than this one.
    The primary reason this car failed as a model is that people couldn't get past the look; but if you focus on the utlity and think of it, as Laura has suggesed, as a "jacked up accord with AWD and a hatch" you will not find a better value for utility.
    One prior car, I had 236,000 on this version of engine and transmisson when I got rid of that car, for other reasons. I had zero issues with either the engine or the transmission, changing oil every $10,000 with Mobil 1 and transmission fluid every 100,000 miles, along with the timing belt (very important with an interference engine).
    After the current insanity in the used car market dies down, if you can find a 2015 V6 EXL with AWD, think hard about getting it. And, like always, have fun and stay awesome.lp anyone who is considering purchasing a used CrossTour. This is an absolutely amazing vehicle. Either you like the look, or you don't, or you don't care;

    You look marvelous in the car Laura! They really did a good redesign on the exterior. I'm leaning toward the new Accord though. What do you think about it? Also btw love the jacket. How many different jackets do you have? Your closet must be HUGE girl lol. Laura be shopping! :)

    nice review! i love the crosstour so much, and i am trying to get my parents to get it so I am researching it as much as I can. I am trying to decide between the Accord Crosstour and the regular one. Have you found any difference between them?

    Love the car. i don't why people add music to talk over it...its just dumb i cant hear much of what she's saying as she seemed to be trying to battle the music or the music added after is trying to battle her all in all i muted and watch and it rate it still a good effort. NEXT TIME LOSE THE MUSIC when you have something important to say to the masses.

      951tony Hi Tony; Nice choice Insights are a great value right now. The 2014 LX would sell for $17,907 which represents a $3383 discount. I hope this works for you. Where would we be delivering the car too?

    For smart entry or handless entry don’t put you Accord remote with mobile in same pocket.
    As mobile radiation could jam the transmission of the remote.
