Went to a dealership this past weekend. Honda and Acura in one building
-Test drove the integra CVT
-Sales rep didn't take us seriously enough and he had an appointment in 10 mins, so he only took us around the big parking lot. Rep didn't do a good job selling the car to us, just tried to figure out how easy of a sale it was going to be (asked when we needed the car, what else we are thinking of, what would expect for a trade in value, etc). After the lap round the lot, he kinda just told us to go try Honda (seemed dismissive).
-It's nice, but need to drive it on the road to get a better feel.
-Test drove the civic hybrid sedan
-super nice, def feels like luxurious civic
-ride is quiet, smooth
-a lot more features with this car compared to an Si (given the similar price point)
-sales rep was a little more informative, probably cause I asked more questions, but still didn't really try to sell me the car by describing all the features, etc.
-I watched more reviews on youtube, it basically runs like an EV almost all the time. The gas engine is only to recharge the battery and gas engine only kicks in past 60 mph or so.
-No Si in stock at this location
-Wifey didn't like the idea of MT when I brought it up cause she would have to learn to drive it, and in case there is an emergency she needs to know how to drive it. I gave her this exact reasoning why I should learn to ride a motorcycle lol.... eye roll.
We aren't in a rush at the moment, so def will look at other car brands too.
