Civic EX sedan auto Boston Area

Written by: hockeyfool on May 24, 2006 04:48 AM

Just took delivery of alabaster silver EX sedan auto. I had three dealerships in the Boston area competing and each quoted similar prices (within $200). Due to the flooding in the area, sales have been down this past week and dealers are willing to negotiate to make a sale. I ended up going with the dealer closest to my home for convenience. Here's the deal: Price: ... Read More...

Re: Does my 2001 Civic EX require ONLY Honda spark plugs? [timguy]

Written by: litezout on May 18, 2006 08:44 PM

Honda recommends you use NGK spark plugs. You can get them for about $3-$4 each. I have Denso Iridium plugs in my Civic. They are about $12 each. I haven't really noticed the difference and will probably go back to NGK. Read More...

Paying MSRP?

Written by: rha2 on May 14, 2006 01:36 AM

I test drove the Civic LX (automatic) today and loved it. However, the dealer repeatedly assured me they wouldn't sell a Civic under sticker price. Edmund's TMV is well below MSRP, but KBB has the average selling price just below MSRP. I live in Pittsburgh so there are a lot of Honda dealers within a 25 mile radius. Should I just start shopping elsewhere, or was this ... Read More...

Honda Civic vs Mazda3

Mazda's not going anywhere [carfanatic007]

Written by: thegraduate on May 13, 2006 02:05 PM

I doubt Mazda is going anywhere anytime soon... Mazda has quite a boom going on right now, especially now that it is about to release two new SUV models. The 3 sedan has better performance than the Civic, but can't match the Civic's economy. It's a tradeoff that people have to choose between, but there is no "wrong choice." Most kids buy Honda's to tune (or used to, ... Read More...

Honda Civic Ex is superior to Mazda 3i/S

Written by: carfanatic007 on May 13, 2006 01:37 PM

Honda has quality, reliability and engineering on its side. Honda is known world wide for its excellent engines. Mazda has struggled financially for years and is owned by Ford Motor Co. I have driven the 3S and to me the Honda equals its performance. Plus, I like the interior much better. The AC is very COLD. I don't think Mazda will be in business much longer, maybe ...

Back in 2001, the Honda Civic GX was sold to fleet purchasers. I found Chris in the fleet department at Sierra Autocars (Honda) a pleasure to during the purchasing process.
