The DX is bullshit. No AC and 3 colors. Honda DX bullshit designed to force people into an upsell model.

This isn't the 80's anymore they should add ac and get a clue.

[KPKonliner]

[xdivisionx]

Honda kills Ford no doubt

@etoyotarockshsucks I've been to Florida twice, it's hot over there but you guys don't have the humidity, that's even worse. Heat I could deal with but when it's really humid it's f**kin' terrible.

@DjJokerr chicago is nothing try florida heat

[etoyotarockshsucks]

flashy? no way

[DjJokerr]

Like always all the dealers advertise the start price 16,000 or 18,000 for basic version which usually they don't even have at the dealerships plus the standard version doesn't have A/C and no Radio. Radio I could live without , rather buy better quality one, but A/C? come on that's some b.s. here in Chicago summer time you need that shit. I got mine The version above DX which is LX and it was like another 2 grand or something. Rip off.

alright man don't get yourself a heart attack bro I can see one is on the way for you. Get a life man, obviously you've got beef with Honda's and a love connection with Toyota's. Nothing wrong with that but dude, don't try to talk all hard, it just makes you even more retarded than you already are.

[rayj778]

@OCX600RR Maybe you & your forum are a bunch of lying homos. I check the fucking tires all the time, & i have friends who said Hondas take a lot of gas, not just family you fucking moron. & SURPRISINGLY ones who have toyotas all brag about their good gas mileage.

@rayj778

well it seems like your family is having difficulties driving Honda's correctly then. I belong to a very popular Civic forum & I must say there are many many owners who are averaging 32+ MPG for the LX model (Auto). Like I said before I inflate the tires a bit more and also drive efficiently so I average around 35MPG combined which is not bad at all. Your family like to all put the pedal to the metal? the 2004 model should get even better gas mileage than the current generation
