we got a honda dealer here, where they have a few hundred mile Toyota Supra Turbo (1995ish)
1995 Cobra R (200miles)
1991 Porsche Turbo (30k miles)
1987 GN (20k miles)
etc etc

maybe they realized since they only have the unloved S2K for perf, they should get something else to draw the people in.

I go up there every once in a while just to see what they have.

Theres a 69 Mach 1 at a Ford dealer up hear too. Haldeman Ford on Rt. 222.

The accord hybrids are really supposed to be nice, great family cars and some decent power too. Honda makes some great vehicles. Just stay way from toyo

Hey Zach, those cars belong to the owner. I saw them when I went up there to apply for a job.

Honda dealers can make real good money. They do have rebates and discounts, but they go to the dealer - not the customer.

This dealership is about 3 miles from my house. It's so fun to drive by there and you know everyone's rubberneckin' as they go by. They always have gorgeous cars on display.

Look around their site..

It seems to me that the two cars are like comparing apples and oranges. An Accord Hybrid or a Mustang? Do you want a sports/muscle car or a four door sedan/family car? How can you be comparing the two for your purchase? :scratch:
