well the deals i tried were freakin retarded, so when i told them i wanted my matrix back, they got me 366 a month for 60 months.

total purchase price was 15,900, they gave me 18,300 for trade on the trix, it was only worth 13,500.

total of payments was 20K on the dot.

Congragulations. Nice car. I hope this goes a long way towards solving that unfortunate situation with the Matrix.

I reviewed a new 2006 Civic EX and found it an excellent small car except for the quirky split-level dash, digital speedometer, and somewhat jumpy electronic throttle starting up from rest. But the car, like most Hondas, is built like a Swiss Watch.

I need to get HID's, but other than that it has everything already...stereo (factory is SUPERB!), tint (5% rear, 15 front) and thats pretty much all i want...

mmarshall, ty for the congrats...

i noticed the same things as you about the drive-by-wire throttle, it does take some getting used to. but the dash and digital speedo are some of the things i love most about the car! LOL. can u link me to that review so i can read it? i know, i know...but better late than never... LOL

Great purchase. The Civic is one of the best cars out there regardless of price. And you got the best color - Galaxy Grey!

Oh, and you can easily achieve 40 MPG on the highway.

^the incredible factory stereo. best stereo i have heard come out of a car from the factory in a LONG time. harder to steal when molded in the dash, the drawback is, you cant install an aftermarket deck without ALOT of custom work...
