Q: When will the next generation of Honda civic come out?
Well I'm planning on buying a 2010 Honda civic. I was wondering if they were going to redesign it or is it going to look the same as the 2009 civics... ok i also want to know when a new redesigned model of the civic will come out if its not coming out 2010

A: Okay, the 2009 Civic has been refreshed from the 2006-2008 design. Usually a model generation lasts 5-7 years. The 2010 Civic will be almost identical to the 2009 (very minor tweaks if any). The 2011 model year Civic (it will most likely be released late 2010) will be totally redesigned.

Q: Is Civic Type R coming in 2010??
i saw it on a web site that honda might bring the type-r here in the US, is that true??

A: Honda released the Civic Si in late 2005. This is a sedan version of the Civic Type R from Europe - but for all intents and purposes it's the same car: - same 198 bhp 2.0 litre K20 engine, 6 speed manual gearbox, similar interior. The European version BTW gets 201 bhp - probably the result of US emissions laws. So no need to wait until. (But expect to wait a month or two for a Civic Si as they're relatively rare).

Q: Does anyone know if the new 2009 Civic Hybrids will include bluetooth and leather?
I love the 2008 Honda Civic Hybrid but wish it had better quality stereo, seats, and electronics. Anyone know if there will be any upgrades in the 2009 version? Maybe I should wait until 2010. Update... I found this info on about it on the hondapreview.com site: There's more info on the mid models too. Hybrid There is a new variation for both NAVI and non-NAVI trims. We don't know what it is at this time but we are guessing from the model description that it is a leather option. New colors will be Atomic Blue Metallic, Crystal Black Pearl, Polished Metal Metallic, and Spectrum White Pearl. Opal Silver Blue, Galaxy Gray, and Taffeta White will be discontinued. The mid-model Civic will go on sale in September and the Hybrid in October.

A: Leather is for sure. As for the Bluetooth haven't heard anything about it being available yet.

Q: Does this car sound like a good deal?
Hi there, I'm looking to buy a used Honda Civic from a dealership. Can someone advise me if this is a good deal? S reg - 1999 1.6 power steering, air con, etc. 80,000 miles MOT till feb 2010 6 mths tax 2 weeks ago SERVICED 3 mths warranty for engine/gearbox hpi cert - no accident £1500 Worth it? If not, why not and should I try and bargain some more?

A: Sounds good for the states, but i am unfamiliar with pricing in the UK. You could always bargain some more, especially if you have cash to pay vs needing credit.

Q: Could Chevy catch or surpass Toyota as the greenest auto manufacturer?
Chevy remains on schedule to produce the Volt by the end of 2010. This car will be able to go 40 miles purely using an electric engine, after which point it will act like a gas/electric hybrid. Effectively as long as you don't travel more than 40 miles in a day, the Volt will be an electric car. GM is requiring a 10 year lifetime for the Volt's lithium-ion battery, and expects to have next-generation lithium-ion battery packs ready for the vehicles by October this year. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070809/sc_nm/gm_volt_dc The Toyota Prius is clearly the greenest car available right now http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070727/sc_nm/cars_pollution_dc although the Honda Civic hybrid is close behind. While Toyota is working on a plug-in Prius model, they haven't yet advanced to the lithium-ion battery stage and thus have fallen behind Chevy in the plug-in market. Toyota surpassed American companies in hybrid technology a decade ago - is GM finally about to reverse this?

A: I actually think this could be quite possible. G.M. have copped heaps of bad press since the release of "that movie". What better way to clean up their image than to regain no 1. Toyota and Honda have proven beyond any doubt that people will pay a premium for environmentally freindly vehicles. Personnally I don't give a rats as to who has the best as long as they are all trying to better each other. It is probably more likely that a start up specialised company similar to Tesla, Eestor / zenn or even Zap might get the nod for greenest car first. (It will all depend on what is fact and what is hype) Just as a footnote I can see no real benefit in trying to be almost as good as Toyota. Civic Hybrid is almost there, but doesn't sell anywhere near as well.

Q: what do you think of these cars?
I'm a college student and I am in desperate need of a car...but i don't know which ones are good deals and which aren't.

Q: Are automotive editors misinforming the public regarding the quality level of American vehicles?
Below, is an actual letter to the editor of a local newspaper in response to the editor's obvious biased views on American vehicles in general. Editor: As I watch the coverage of the fate of the U.S. auto industry, one alarming and frustrating fact hits me right between the eyes. The fate of our nation's economic survival is in the hands of some congressmen who are completely out of touch and act without knowledge of an industry that affects almost every pe rson in our nation. The same lack of knowledge is shared with many journalists whom are irresponsible when influencing the opinion of millions of viewers. Sen. Rich ard Shelby of Alabama has doomed the industry, calling it a dinosaur. No Mr. Shelby, you are the dinosaur, with ideas stuck in the '70s, '80s and '90s. You and the uninformed journalist and senators that hold onto myths that are not relevant in today's world. When you say that the Big Three build vehicles nobody wants to buy, you must have overlooked that GM outsold Toyota by about 1.2 million vehicles in the U.S. and Ford outsold Honda by 850,000 and Nissan by 1.2 million in the U.S. GM was the world's No. 1 automaker beating Toyota by 3,000 units. When you claim inferior quality comes from the Big Three, did you realize that Chevy makes the Malibu and Ford makes the Fusion that were both rated over the Camry and Accord by J.D. Power independent survey on initial quality? Did you bother to read the Consumer Report that rated Ford on par with good Japanese automakers. Did you realize Big Three's gas guzzlers include the 33 mpg Malibu that beats the Accord. And for '09 Ford introduces the Hybrid Fusion whose 39 mpg is the best midsize, beating the Camry Hybrid. Ford's Focus beats the Corolla and Chevy's Cobalt beats the Civic. When you ask how many times are we going to bail them out you must be referring to 1980. The only Big Three bailout was Chrysler, who paid back $1 billion, plus interest. GM and Ford have never received government aid. When you criticize the Big Three for building so many pickups, surely you've noticed the attempts Toyota and Nissan have made spending billions to try to get a piece of that pie. Perhaps it bothers you that for 31 straight years Ford's F-Series has been the best selling vehicle. Ford and GM have dominated this market and when you see the new '09 F-150 you'll agree this won't change soon. Did you realize that both GM and Ford offer more hybrid models than Nissan or Honda. Between 2005 and 2007, Ford alone has invested more than $22 billio n in research and development of technologies such as Eco Boost, flex fuel, clean diesel, hybrids, plug in hybrids and hydrogen cars. It's 2008 and the quality of the vehicles coming out of Detroit are once again the best in the world. Perhaps Sen. Shelby isn't really that blind. Maybe he realizes the quality shift to American. Maybe it's the fact that his state of Alabama has given so much to land factories from Honda, Hyundai and Mercedes Benz that he is more concerned about their continued growth than he is about the people of our country. Sen. Shelby's disdain for "government subsidies" is very hypocritical. In the early '90s he was the driving force behind a $253 million incentive package to Mercedes. Pl us, Alabama agreed to purchase 2,500 vehicles from Mercedes. While the bridge loan the Big Three is requesting will be paid back, Alabama 's $180,000-plus per job was pure incentive. Sen. Shelby, not only are you out of touch, you are a self-serving hypocrite, who is prepared to ruin our nation because of lack of knowledge and lack of due diligence in making your opinions and decisions. After 9/11, the Detroit Three and Harley Davidson gave $40 million-plus emergency vehicles to the recovery efforts. What was given to the 9/11 relief effort by the Asian and European Auto Manufactures? $0 Nada. Zip! We live in a world of free trade, world economy and we have not been able to produce products as cost efficiently. While the gov ernments of other auto producing nations subsidize their automakers, our government may be ready to force its demise. While our automakers have paid union wages, benefits and legacy debt, our Asian competitors employ cheap labor. We are at an extreme disadvantage in production cost. Although many UAW concessions begin in 2010, many lawmakers think it's not enough. Some point the blame to corporate management. I would like to speak of Ford Motor Co. The company has streamlined by reducing our workforce by 51,000 since 2005, closing 17 plants and cutting expenses. Product and future product is excellent and the company is focused on one Ford. This is a company poised for success. Ford product quality and corporate management have improved light years since the nightmare of Jacques Nasser. Thank you Alan Mulally and the best auto company management team in the business. The financial collapse caused by the secondary mortgage fiasco and the greed of Wall Street has led to a $700 billion bailout of the industry that created the problem. AIG spent nearly $1 million on three company excursions to lavish resorts and hunting destinations. Paulson is saying no to $250 billion foreclosure relief and the whole thing is a mess. So when the Big Three ask for 4 percent of that of the $700 billion, $25 billion to save the country's largest industry, there is obviously oppositions. But does it make sense to reward the culprits of the problem with $700 billion unconditionally, and ignore the victims? As a Ford dealer, I feel our portion of the $25 billion will never be touched an d is not necessary. Ford currently has $29 billion of liquidity. However, the effect of a bankruptcy by GM will hurt the suppliers we all do business with. A Chapter 11 bankruptcy by any manufacture would cost retirees their health care and retirements. Chances are GM would recover from Chapter 11 with a better business plan with much less expense. So who foots the bill if GM or all three go Chapter 11? All that extra health care, unemployment, loss of tax base and some forgiven debt goes back to the taxpayer, us. With no chance of repayment, this would be much worse than a loan with the intent of repayment. So while it is debatable whether a loan or Chapter 11 is better for the Big Three, a $25 billion loan is definitely better for the taxpayers and the economy of our country. So I'll end where I began on the quality of the products of Detroit . Before you, Mr. or Ms. Journalist continue to misinform the American public and turn them against one of the great industries that helped build this nation, I must ask you one question. Before you, Mr. or Madam Congressman vote to end health care and retirement benefits for 1 million retirees, eliminate 2.5 million of our nation's jobs, lose the technology that will lead us in the future and create an economic disaster including hundreds of billions of tax dollars lost, I ask this question not in the rhetorical sense. I ask it in the sincere, literal way. Can you tell me, have you driven a Ford lately?

A: Hey Junior, Mr. UAW, how many non-union contractors have you treated worse than terrorists? I have worked in Big 3 plants for over 10 years as a contractor. I want the Big 3 to survive and believe they build good vehicles. But it is the elitist union members who treat non-union workers as scum that makes me want the Big 3 to fail. You reap what you sow...
