Well, at least you bought a Honda and not something that depreciates horribly.
 
Still, you are going to pay for your frivolity.
 
And...a VOLKSWAGEN??

I love the new Tiguan.. but, even though you bought a Honda, you will get pounded if you try to trade it so soon..
 
Plus, a Tiguan with leather, AWD and NAV is going to be around $35K, so you are looking at a major jump in price.. Add in the $4K or more hit you'll take on trading the CR-V, and it looks pretty ugly..
 
Enjoy your new car, then maybe take a look in a couple of years...

I agree with kyfdx. You'll undoubtedly take a major 'hit' trading it in so soon. If you're hell bent on getting rid of it, would at least try and sell it privately, but unless you discount it heavily, a potential buyer would likely just prefer to get a brand new one. I debated long and hard about the CR-V versus the Tiguan, but utimately decided to go with the CR-V (bought it in March of this year). I bought it at invoice and got 10% off all dealer installed accessories. The Tiguan I would have wanted (and likely couldn't resist if I went with a Tiguan) was going to be a loaded up SEL to get the leather and other goodies. It was going to cost $8-9K more than the CR-V EX-L AWD with navi I bought, plus I knew the dealers were going to want to sell them at MSRP initially (and some might even try to get over MSRP- though I'd never pay that). Plus, it doesn't get as good fuel economy as the CR-V. Now if the TDI Tiguan had been available from the getco, I might have considered it, but since it wasn't, I just went with the CR-V. If a TDI becomes available, I might go for it (or a diesel CR-V, which I've also heard rumblings about).

Tiguan? by isellhondas

Funny, until now I have never even heard of one?
 
I keep hearing rumors of diesel Accords and CRV's but with diesel at a STAGGERING 4.79 a gallon in this area I can't understand for the life of me WHY anyone would want one. They cost a lot more to begin with and they don't get that much better mileage.
 
Plus the smell, availability problems etc...I mean WHY?

The Tiguan comes with a 2.0 litre turbo gas engine... The same one that's in the GTI, GLI and the Passat.. The diesel doesn't go on sale until next year...
 
You really have to get out more..

Maybe so.
 
Seriously I've never heard of a Tiguan and I sure haven't seen one either.
 
Where do they ever come up with these names? Throw a bunch of scrabble tiled on a table and arrange them until something looks good?
 
Yet another entry in an already overcrowded market.

yes, I dont really have strong intentions of trading in. Just curious. I dont have the money to get a Tiguan now, because yea i test drove one and i would "need" the SEL fully loaded. I will be content with my slow but reliable CR-V until at least 2010 lol
Thanks guys!

The words "reliable" and Volkswagen don't work well together.

Gas just hit $ 4.12 / gallon in NE Ohio. Even Pilot's are $ 7,000 off sticker even before you start bargaining. I'm getting cold feet about even buying one now. Two weeks ago, we were lucky to get $ 1,100 off sticker on the CR-V.

Amen to that! Volkswagen is like a Hyundai of German automobile.
