Perfect point made here IMO. It all comes down to what a person is buying the car for. In my previous post I compared the Touring to the Audi A5, and it's pretty much the exact same line of thought.
I'm coming to the Touring from an Audi A5, and it is most certainly not as sporty of a car. That being said, I very much enjoy driving the Touring compared to the Audi. Yes it doesn't have AWD, and the turbo is not nearly as quick as the Audi, but it's still a nice sporty car. For about half...
I'm having the same issue. I used my first tank on the Touring with the Econ off, and now on tank #2 with the Econ on, and the car definitely feels a lot more sluggish. Not terrible, but not the same as with it off. I haven't really been able to tell the MPG difference yet, but it appears to...
I noticed this morning on my A/C that when I have it set to auto and about 65 it started to cool off. Seems that it's just something that has to be adjusted until it gets to a comfortable temp, and then put it on the temp that you want
I heard this so many times before I got my Touring... and sure enough on day 2 of mine now, and I've had many car enthusiasts that I work with come up to me after seeing it in person with the same type of reaction. It really feels pretty sweet to drive too, which is always a plus :)
Just got the Touring in on Tuesday night. So I've had it for a day now. Absolutely love it so far. A few minor kinks and stuff that I've run into but nothing crazy. They called me after I checked their site and saw that they got other Tourings in and I was starting to get even more depressed...
I had my iPod plugged in for the first time today. Everything worked fine but then when I went to disconnect, I just pulled out the iPod and then it came up with no device connected. When I went to switch back to Sirius, it sort of froze, and I couldn't even turn off the unit. Had to restart...
Picked up the Touring last night and I gotta say... I was a bit sad driving away from the Audi, but man, this car seems great so far. So many features I didn't have before. The thing I'm noticing is the switching from the AWD to the FWD again. A little different with the torque steering on...
Sounds like a good deal to me. Unfortunately I don't that happening for me since they already burned us once, and won't admit the fact that they did so by offering us a better deal for the Civic.
I think I may pass on the maintenance plans. I got that for my current car (Audi) because maintenance was so expensive, but not sure it'd be worth it on the Civic. Makes sense that they push what they can sell. I guess it certainly doesn't hurt to bring up Honda Care if need be, but I'm...
Yeah I was talking about that and the tire rotations and what not. We paid 399 for the CRV. Really debating on if I need that or not for the Civic. I'd probably pay it up front, so no financing, but not sure it'd be worth it.
yeah, I have no problem turning down the warranty. My only fear is even bringing up Honda Care if they don't bring it up first. Not sure they will since they hammered us on the 3rd party the first time around. Also is the extra maintenance plan worth it? They also gave us one of those for the...
Definitely don't seem to be trustworthy. Hoping we will never have to use it on the CRV. Do you think that the dealer is going to be less likely to comply if they try to push this 3rd party warranty so hard? Maybe they don't even sell Honda Care. Is that a possibility too?
Picking up my Civic Touring tonight. We bought a CRV from the dealer 2 weeks ago and they really got us on a 3rd party warranty (similar to Honda Care though). I'm really thinking I'll decline the 3rd party for the Civic and just go with Honda Care. Kinda scares me a bit though since they...
Yeah apparently they threw in the maintenance on the CRV so the 2400 price tag for both doesn't sound far off of what I would've gotten elsewhere. I think I may go ahead and decline that maintenance on the Civic and see what the price drops down to. 800 does sound like an awful lot for routine...
Ah ok, that would make sense. Seems like that is what we got with the CRV. I think I'm going to have to check from the dealer again and see exactly what is covered by that. I paid double what I'm getting quoted from these online dealers, but that would've been without the maintenance. Is the...
Thanks for the info. I looked at Saccucci's site again and it says that it is accepted at 99% of dealerships. (Wonder what the 1 percent is). I've also noticed that the plan we got for the CRV included oil changes and tire rotations and what not as well. Looking at the quote for Saccucci, it...
So here's the deal. I'm currently waiting on the dealer for my Touring to come in and just wasn't sure about what to do in terms of warranty. The dealer really overcharged my fiancée and I on her CRV for the extended warranty from third party. I assumed it was Honda Care, but it was not. So...
