  1. Decent dealers in the SF Bay Area?

    This pretty much sums up why I prefer Acura over Honda every time. I live in NYC and even in the suburbs Honda dealers are slime balls saying anything to get you into the dealer and thus into a car. My experience with Acura dealers in the Tri-State area fall bellow Lexus or Mercedes but...
  2. What did you pay?

    New York Civics tend to run only a couple hundred bellow invoice right now due to demand. If you can live withe less features, less fuel economy, but better brand experience and warranty the 2016 ILX is a great deal right now going for $3000+ bellow invoice. My 2016 ILX Premium was $26,260...
  3. 2016 Touring or ILX?

    It's important to note that real world fuel economy. Fuelly has the 2016 Civic Turbo at 36 combined and 2016 ILX at 30.5 combined. Is that 5-6 MPG worth it, plus the premium gas? If you are trying to inch out every mile possible and refuse to buy into 91 octane gas than the Civic is a no...
  4. 2016 Touring or ILX?

    They are already heavily discounted with dealer incentives, upper trims (Premium and above) are getting $3000-$3250 off factory invoice. While yes the 16 ILX is based on the 9th gen Civic IMO it's not that far off from the 10th gen Honda Touring Turbo. The Touring Turbo is so good it's...
  5. 2016 Touring or ILX?

    I will admit the 2016 is behind the curve and always is like a iPhone type S, where it has minimal upgrades compared to the current gen Civic, but the 2nd gen which should be based on the 10th gen Civic should be a whole other ball game. Still the 1.5 gen ILX is still competitive even though it...
  6. What did you pay?

    So I just did a quick look a day before title taxes a day fees for 36 months 25k a year the Truecar lease calculator comes to $360 so your offer is really good. And the official residual with 25k is $11,476. So let's say at the end of the lease you out less miles than you think on the car or...
  7. What did you pay?

    I would still lease and here is why. You are getting a Great deal number 1 and number 2 while I hope you have a long lasting fulfilling career you never know with jobs. It could last 3 months or 30 years. This lease keeps things open so God forbid you loose your job your not stuck with a $400...
  8. What did you pay?

    My next question is where the he'll do you work? And are they taking applicants?
  9. What did you pay?

    Well the $355 reimbursement does solve a lot. my mistake on the years. Yeah the $355 reimbursement really is the key information in this. So I still stick with my belief that this should be leased. You can lease 20K miles a year, unless you really believe you can't properly maintain the...
  10. Some 2017 Civic Si details we learned

    Well maybe that's why I like it I am 5'5" not kids. Perfect car for living in nyc
  11. What did you pay?

    I don't mean to question you, maybe I should congratulate you but most 2016 Civics are going for only a couple hundred dollars bellow invoice at best. The car invoices at $21,463. But after reading your posts it seems like you had a trade and equity of $3000? With this being said I think you...
  12. What did you pay?

    To answer EVERYONE's posts about price. The best way to make sure you get a good to even great deal is using TrueCar. Unless a new car has really high demand you should NEVER pay close to MSRP! Always pay invoice or bellow with rebates and incentives. Just plug in your location, pick the...
  13. What did you pay?

    what is the car final negotiated price. Is the $24,000 include all fees, tax and tags, ect? It be better if you itemized it. But using True Car whether it be NYC or Ohio best you can do is get a couple hundred dollars off invoice at $23,072. So either you are getting a good deal with $24,000...
  14. Some 2017 Civic Si details we learned

    Lol don't we all!? The HRV without a doubt needs more power! I think since the HRV is based on the Civic putting the 1.5 T would be easy. The HRV although has a fugly front end. Mazda CX3 still the best sub compact crossover
  15. I think I messed up... Test drove a GTI today!

    The Golf is a GREAT car. Simply put many auto journalists and enthusiasts rave about VW and Mazda as the best "drivers" cars and I would have to tend to agree. The big thing I have against VW and Mazda jointly are that the prices are higher compared to Honda in most cases since your a paying...
  16. ILX BSI on 2016 Civic?

    ok thanks for the heads up. But I think just using the backup camera in conjunction with your mirrors is just as effective if not more.
  17. 2016 Honda Civic Touring vs 2016 Lexus IS 200T

    HAHA Ok this comparison starts to get into a larger discussion based on more than money, performance, and features. Lexus in general is just a notch or so above an Acura product in terms of fit and finish, types of material, brand/dealer experience, and even reliability. The IS 200T IMO is...
  18. Rumors swirl.... 2016 Civic Si 2.0T with about 230hp.

    I couldn't agree more. There will always be the joy of driving an manual but living in NYC and owning an 16 ILX has been FANTASTIC. I agree the Type R manual only is fine because it will be a Halo car that will sell maybe sub 1k cars a month at best most months and maybe Si would be up there...
  19. Rumors swirl.... 2016 Civic Si 2.0T with about 230hp.

    This would be awesome and would answer the cries against the 2016-2017 ILX not having quite enough, which I disagree with but none the less more the better right!? We all knew the 1.5 T on the Touring set the bar pretty high for the Si, but the real question is what the transmission will be...
