General Comments:
The automobile was not reliable, leaving us stranded on several occasions.
The dealership never seemed to be able to correct the problems. Every time we had "regular" maintenance performed, more major malfunctions were discovered.
The automobile looked very good aesthetically, however, performed poorly.
The dealership and the Honda Corporation were contacted several times regarding problems with the automobile. Basically, we were told that the Bank owned the vehicle now (through a lease) and the responsibility was no longer that of the dealer or Honda Corporation.

In order for you to make an educated observation on this car, you need to have had it since it was new. I have a 1995 LX Coupe, and bought it brand new, it has been the best car I have ever owned. The car now has 35k miles on it and has not required one unscheduled repair. Don't make make an uneducated comment about a car the rest of the world highly regards as a superior automobile.
