Actually Drove the car finally outside of my Test drive (My wife drove home), and have basically confirmed this is the ideal commuter for my drive.
Big observations so far:
-The audio in the 2.0T is crisp and higher quality than the MACH 500 system in the Mustang
-'HondaSense' is VERY impressive (the name of the suite of safety features). On the Highway with ACC/LKAS, the car drives itself. I don't mean like "It bounces from one side of the lane to the other" I mean, it holds itself in the center of the lane, through turns, and at appropriate speed/distance to the car in front of it with me just resting a hand on the bottom of the wheel. (It detects when I'm not holding the wheel and yells at me for steering input).
-The Drivetrain is likely the smoothest I've ever driven, I didn't even realize I was in 4th on the highway for probably half a mile at one point.
-Turbo Lag/Spool/Surge simply doesn't exist, Period. It makes power like something with vastly more displacement.
-Ride is extremely compliant on the highway, nothing from the morning commute unsettled it.
-It's exceptionally light and responsive, which is a huge relief going back into FWD as my daily.
-I'm going to probably look into shifter options at some point; the shifter is excellent, but I'm just very accustomed to shorter throws and a tighter feeling. That being said; it's actually tighter/better feeling than the Mustangs OEM one (which I had put back before trading in and forgot how bad it was).
-K&N Typhoon Intake/Tint/Some kind of Exhaust are likely all in the cars future for a little more 'sporty' feeling, the car is no doubt heavily muted for 99% of people that buy it.
bruh ive been saying this about the crv for two years bruh
