......ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ! :evil: OK.... I'm pissed. Have you Car Talk thread posters heard about this: (New York-WABC, September 30, 2002) — Drivers will have to think twice before parking illegally in New York City anymore. Starting Tuesday, October 1st, fines...
We interrupt this discussion about boring cars to bring you breaking news about....possibly purchasing a boring car.
I'm in the market for a new (or maybe gently used) car, and I'm a Honda loyalist on a budget. I'll start by test driving 2010 Civics in the coming days.
For the life of me, I can't tell any real difference between the EX and LX. The EX is more 'spensive. Why, Brainy Car People, why???
"...a brilliant combination of foodie, cold war, vintage and biblical. If you replace cold war with band geek." -kimpossible
Actually, I'm eyeing the 2010 Insight Hybrid! It gets good reviews and it's actually within reach for me. I didn't think there was a hybrid that was.
This is my first new car and my first time negotiating a large purchase. Even though I'm armed with all the advice and strategies I could possibly need, I'm not looking forward to it. I can be good at pushy, I can be good at persistent, but not when it comes to money. :-/

The Honda Grand Prix is six miles from where I live. I'm inside and I have the windows closed. I can hear the cars.

Rear seatback pocket.
Rear armrest.
Additional 12volt plug.

Exterior temperature sensor.
Available navi.

Good luck!
Was hoping for a Honda Fit hybrid, but that doesn't look promising with their botching of the new CRX. But for myself I prefer the fit over the civic.
I'm a hatchback driver.
If I find a cherry 2004-2006 insight, that will be my next city/commuter car.

I don't know what I was so worried about. I did it! And I robbed them blind. BLIND, I tell you!!

The next Art car is on it's way: a BMW M3 GT2 racecar will get Jeff Koons treatment.

Rear strut mount failure on the M3. Just glad it happened in front of a parking spot that was good for three days.
It's being repaired and I am having four new struts installed as well. Excited to see how that affects handling.
