New ride!

Mar 18, 2009 00:04

The Ahiru has been passed down to Steve, who's been Waiting Forever to inherit her. In her place is Roque, a shiny, lovely-if-less-yellow, Civic Hybrid. I'm seriously, seriously jazzed. And the mad fuel efficiency makes me feel just a wee bit pious.

Anyway, without further ado, here's Roque!

Good choice! I'm twiddling my thumbs until the Honda Insight gets released next month, but then I will also be Hybridized. :-)

Thanks! But you really should consider this hybrid. Honda's offering an insanely good lease deal on these. It really tipped the scales as I was waiting for a Fusion hybrid and Ford just couldn't compete.

Iiinteresting... Thanks to a bachelor uncle who won the lottery (and then bought all his nieces and nephews stock, theoretically to help pay for college), I was planning on pretty much paying in cash, which limited me to the low end of the Civic line vs. a fairly souped-up Insight, but I'll keep that in mind as I shop.

Ooooohhhhh, shiny and new!
I love the restyled body, especially the front.
Now, how long will it take you to get the hot glue out from around the headlights?

Congrats!!

Thanks! I do love it. The front end is really tough looking.

Probably won't be worried about that hot glue. They're well positioned and I think Honda's using those new Zoukeimura headlights! *grins*

So shinyyyy~! New cars have a particularly unique happy-feeling, don't they?

Very happy! I'm pretty jazzed about it. Especially with a summer road trip coming.

Feeling better?
