Re: Damn those peeps at Honda

We will go firm up the paperwork today if DH doesn't change his mind for the eleventh time.

Re: Damn those peeps at Honda
No, it's a V6 Accord. The 4 cyl only gets 2 more mpg and the styling was nice IMO. We drove the civic hybid and while there was nothing wrong with it, we decided we wanted more car. Also, on a lease, it wasn't that good.
FM with what you're thinking and I'll help you negotiate if you want.

Re: Damn those peeps at Honda
We got ours in Royal Blue last Sunday. I love it. VCM is a little bumpy when it turns cylinders on and off, but I deal with it for the gas savings.
Which dealer did you goto? We went to Atlantic and the first price out of the box that they gave us was great. Maybe its because we financed and did not lease.

Re: Damn those peeps at Honda
It didn't happen today. Found out you can't getr XM without leather.
We may be back to the 4 cyl w/leather or not at all!
It takes DH eons to make a decision..I guess it will be another few weekends looking.
Jeez, it didn't take me this long!
But I did find out that my credit score is 794 and 772..that's pretty cool.

Yeah - I don't like the package options on the car. Or more specifically the fact that you can't get things seperately. If you want bluetooth capability, you need to buy the Navigation system at an addiitonal 2,000.00. That's a big hunk of change, for someone that doesnt have any problems reading a map but would still like Bluetooth.
The satellite radio was a must for me, considering I commute 2+ hours a day. So we got the EX-L V6. We had the car no longer than 2 hours before we ripped out the XM and converted it to Sirius.

Re: Damn those peeps at Honda
Yep, Honda is pretty independent.
Also to mention you see a lot more Altimas and Camrys on the road than the Accords.
I don't know if the new ones are taking off like they thought they would.
It just messed us up. Didn't want to pull the trigger when you can't get what you want. There are plenty of other cars out there that offer a lot. Honda, not one of them.

 your DH and I are related I think. I also cannot seem to pull the trigger on a car.
just found out that the car we both love *MIGHT* require premium gas. which would put back in square 1!

Re: Damn those peeps at Honda
what I've been hearing about the cars that need premium is that you can generally use regular but they do recommend 89 or better for best performance. Also, if you develop engine issues from not using the right gas, that may void your warranty. I know, DH wants a car that takes premium too...can't win for losing!!!
He knows what he wants but we are trying to stay within a budget. If he got the car he loved and I got the car I loved we wouldn't be paying our mortgage.
