Went and test drove the black one that Colonial Honda has. Wasn't really too impressed. Outside looks big, inside feels smaller than usual. Seats are kinda smallish for a bigger person. Doesnt feel like its too quick, really smooth though. Vtec cross over sounds extremely sweet however.

Oh, and the stealerships are adding on $2000 to the price "because demand is high, and supply is low". Its supposed to be $20,540, so right now with no opts its at $22,540.

 

well when the car is selling, the dealership doesnt think they have to mark the vehicle down. People always try to negotiate anyways, why should they start low? if not just wait til later in the year to get one, or at the end of the year. (btw i sell cars thats why )

 

Get last year's Accord at that price or bump for a few bucks or the hybrid and get those juicy tax credits which pays almost for the entire price difference.

 

u thought it was gonna be quick?

 

Yeah pretty much. No Civic in history has ever been quick, but this new heavier one will be.

I love how Honda runs people's lives (not directed at thread-starter)

 

2006 car of the year... PERIOD

 

Thanks for justifying my post.

 

agreed.

 

1988 Civic Crx Si, if you want to count it as a "civic" in which it is. Back then low 15 second cars were considered "quick". Most of your camaros, stangs ect. were about that fast in the late 80's.

 

I really just wanted to see what all the hype was about. I wasn't really disappointed, but not really impressed either. It's a really nice car, but a 6sp V6 Accord would prob be a much better choice for the prices.
