Q: Will I have to worry about my Honda being stolen?
I am leasing a new car and Honda was one car that I was going to avoid getting because of my parking issue. I live on a side street off of a major highway in New Jersey and I have to park out in the street every night. I know Honda's are the most stolen car. I decided to go with the new 2010 Honda Accord Coupe because there really weren't many options left for me to choose and everything else is too expensive. Honda will give me a good deal. I'm just wondering if the newer hondas have more security than the older ones. I know the new ones do not have the push button start, but they do have an immobilizer. The salesman told me that the only way it can be stolen is if that person has the same key with the computer chips that my key has, OR get taken away on a flatbed. Is this true? Or id there still other ways of stealing? Thank you for your help. This really worries me. My area is okay, but I border a town that is not too good. Also, if I don't leave anything out for thiefs to see, then they should have no reason to break into my car right?

A: Do you live in a bad area? Have you heard any other Honda owners complaining of thief? If you keep that Accord as stock as possible I doubt it will draw any attention. Most Honda thieves prefer to steal Honda Civic's that are modded because they can take it somewhere, strip it, and sell the OEM parts as well as the aftermarket ones for a good amount of money.

Q: Will Accord come out with a new body type for 2010 coupe?

A: There shouldn't be a big diffence in this and next year's body style. The mid model change for the Accord should be in the 2011 model year.

Q: Honda Accord Crosstour (true or fake?)?
im huge fan of honda accord crosstour, i heard that in 2010 there is comming one, is that true or fake? can any one provide me with info?

A: It is true. It will share the same base frame as the current 08' Accord Generation cars, just as the Toyota Venza share's its frame with the Camry. So far it's gathered that it is a launch from Honda to compete With Toyota's Venza and Nissan's Murano & Rouge. So far Honda has only released the specs on the v6 edition. It will have a 3.5 L 271hp 254 ft-ilbs of torque and AWD for an msrp of $31,500 it has a 5-speed. It is about 3 inches shorter than the Venza and 3 inches less wide, so it will be comparable to the Venza.

Q: For my first car which should i pick?
I am 16, 6 feet 2 inches slim male a junior in high school, I live in a decent school district no fancy luxury Lamborghini or Maserati. But can afford something like Honda civic 2009/2010 , scion TC 2010, Hyundai genesis coupe 2010, Honda accord 2010. What cars are under 23k and sporty looking great for modifications and is not so common like the civic

A: out of your list i'm definitely going to say the hyundair genesis coupe because those are just bad little cars.. however have you thought of getting a used 350z or a new v6 2010 camaro.. the new v6 camaros have 300hp

Q: Honda Accord Coupe vs. Nissan Altima Coupe- which is better?
I want to buy one of these cars, new (2009 or 2010). Which do you think is the best in these categories? I want a 4-cylinder by the way. Gas Mileage Reliability Looks/Sportiness Best Resale Value

A: Mileage - you can look this up, about the same, slight edge for the Nissan Reliability, both good, Honda better Looks - I like the Altima's looks better, but this is subjective. The 4cylinder Accord EX has a little more power than the Altima (190 vs 175) Resale - Honda Overall - I have an 08 4 cylinder Accord, so you know which one I'd buy with my money, I already did.

Q: Is a Honda Civic Sedan or Accord Sedan better?
Do they both have leather seats & wood grain available in the interior? Do the 2009 models have the built in GPS touch screen, or is that just the 2010? I plan on buying a new, smaller, more gas friendly car. I drive a 2009 Toyota Ford Runner right now. 4runner, forerunner... Typo. Sorry.

A: the accord is a full size sedan and is a lot bigger and more luxurious. The civic is smaller and more gas friendly. As for all the other extras you want, you can get the xle models of the cars and all of that comes with both of them.

Q: Honda accord EXL v. Acura TSX, please help with purchase decision?
On January 25th my lease for the 2007 Honda accord EXL ends. So i went to dealer today and they say best price they can give (after we bargained) today until January 5 (promotion ends) is $310 month with $1500 downpayment and taxes and handling fees... Then i went to Acura for the TSX basic and they said i can get $335 month and $2500 downpayment and pretty much same taxes and handling fees. However the guy at Honda says after the January 5th promotion the Accord EXL price will go up $30 or more. So i'd be paying now a $1000 more on downpayment for Acura. The lease is 36 months. 1000/36 is approximately $30 extra. So getting the Acura NOW would be the same price as getting the Honda after January 5th. If Honda promotion ends Jan 5th then so does Acura. Also my lease for the 2007 model ends January 25th and this month lease for January is already paid for can't be taken back. Should i give my 2007 Honda back and get New Honda on January 25h and get the Acura NOW while it's technically same lease costs as getting the Honda on the 25th after the promotion ends or should i get the Honda now while before January 5th promotion ends eventhough for 2007 lease is paid for january and can't be taken back or pushed into 2010 first month lease?

A: Honda. way better vehicle.

Q: Do you know any brand-new cars under $200 a month?
I'm 21 years old and deaf. I'm in college. My car (Oldsmobile 2003 Alero) has been trouble a lot, so My father will buy me a brand new car next week. I've been looked in a couple day. I don't want any cars by GM because there's no good running longer. What about Toyota, Honda, Nissan, or others? I really like Nissan 2010 maxima and Honda 2010 accord coupe.

A: for under $200/mo? not gonna happen $200/month on a 60 month purchase only repays $12,000. That has to include taxes and interst, so it will buy about $7500 worth of car. So if you have enough cash to get the purchase price down to 7500, then you can get those cars. Otherwise, prepare to lower your expectations.
