2006 Honda Civic: Smooth?
November 28, 2005 · Posted in Uncategorized
On the way to school this morning Abbe and I stopped to admire a new 2006 Honda Civic sedan. I said to Abbe, "Daddy thinks this car is pretty neat." Abbe asked, "The gray one?" (Sigh, the ubiquitous gray…) I said, "Yes." And, get this, Abbe said, "It looks smooth." Ha! It is smooth. So after I dropped her off at school, I went home and configured one on Honda's site… Yowza! $23k for a Civic? That ain't so smooth. I picked the EX and all the fancies (since I'm not really buying the thing, why not deck it out?) but I got to wondering if any of you have picked out the latest Civic in DX trim and what ya'll think of it?

Bob, congrats on the new gig.
My Honey bought a new 2005 Civic in July, a coupe loaded to the gills and it didn’t come anywhere near that price. A Special Edition EX Coupe, with the foglights, moonroof, A/C 6, disc stereo, power windows & locks and a dealer installed leather interior, cost under $18k.
Now, before you start laughing about a Ford guy having a Honda, I told you it’s not mine, it’s my better half’s. I would have bought the Chevy Cobalt for the same money, wiht factory leather and more horsepower.
So I can’t see how a Civic would go for the same price as a new Ford Fusion.
