With three Hondas in my driveway, dating from 1996 to 2006, and a 2007 in my parents possession, I can say honestly I've never heard of any A/C issues, other than a few complaints about rocks hitting the condensers and making holes in them, destroying them.
 
No representation is made that the quality of air conditioning services provided by vehicles produced by Honda of America is better than that of air conditioning services provided by alternate automobile manufacturers.
 
Paid shills? Please... I see you're a relatively new poster here. Just a friendly heads-up to ya... hosts will remove posts with personal attacks.
 
Happy Hon...I mean Motoring.

This isn't the Honda AC problems discussion. That would be the Honda CR-V AC Compressor Issues discussion.

Goes 40mph, and gets 70 miles per gallon. And it's street legal.

No worries about HUMMERs. Just drive right under them. Maybe duck a little.

And there I was hoping you were pointing to a description of some new Honda, smaller than Fit, that we would be getting in the U.S.! If only....

If he did drive under a Hummer, he'd have a convertible, and then there would at least be enough head room!

this little Baskerville.
 

Kia No.3
 
Today I found out the No.3 will come with a standard 6-speed manual tranny. This little subcompact would be a good one to make a return to the manual transmission with. I'd get the colors pictured on this No.3, too.
 
There's only one small problem, carnuts. The No.3's not coming to the U.S.

It's hard to tell the scale...is that Yaris sized, or smaller?
 
Sure beats the Korean-made Aveo5.

Its Yaris sized. Has a TDI engine in it, which is why it won't be for sale in the U.S.
 
It should get 46mpg or so, converting a similar sized TDI engine in another KIA/Hyundai in the U.K., to U.S. gallons.
