Same year, same trim, same color, same mileage, yet a $4,000 difference between the 2:
I didn't even expect it to be that much difference but umm yeah...Argument done and over with.
Hey OP, if resale is important to you, the CRV is the better choice.
I'll give you an "E" for effort mango but there are a couple of holes in your argument. First, what's the MSRP or average negotiated sale price for the respective vehicles? Without those numbers the $4000 difference you state has much less meaning. Second, I have a '16 CX-5 that was purchased new on 6/30/2015. If I had purchased a new CR-V on that same date, it would have been a 2015. How would those numbers stack up?
I have nothing against Honda, the wife and I have owned 4 of them (1 Civic, 3 Accords) but we've had 2 Mazda 626's also and they were very comparable in every way to the Honda's. I do know I find the CX-5 to more enjoyable to drive than anything else I've owned in recent memory. YMMV.
