They remind me of the old Civic hatchbacks, which I've always liked. Except that they're taller and have seats that fold flat and other little niceties.
The Honda dealership is actually where I'm taking the van tomorrow for the appraisal. If they give me more or less the same quote as the Hyundai dealership instead of telling me to take a hike...I'm going to be sorely tempted. It'd mean a wait while they locate / order a car, though, if I do go that way. And I'd give up some features vs the Hyundai. But it's a Honda, and that makes me feel better about it. Plus it's just a fun little thing, ya know?
I loved my Civic hatchback. Drove it off the lot with 13 miles on it in 1984. It was a great little car and very dependable.
I LOVE that color! When we got the new Windstar, back in 2000, we bought it sight unseen. I’d driven a few used ones, but we hadn’t even considered a new one until SirKit started thinking about the small difference between the price of a low mileage, slightly used one, and a new one. We had told the salesman what we wanted in a van, and he called one afternoon, and asked if we’d consider a new one, and he mentioned the Sport Model. He quoted a great price, then gave me the color choices. I went with the red, and three days later, the afternoon before we were going to take it on the road to take David to college, we went to pick it up. The first I saw it was when they drove it around to the front door for us to pick it up. We really enjoyed that van!
