For those of you into car audio, here is what I did with my '09 NAH. 1) Kept the factory radio (in Canada, it only comes with the single cd, am/fm)..we don't get the optional Bose system upgrade that you guys in the states get. The shop then installed an RE-Q5 to help produce better sounds (something like a 21st century equalizer that is installed in the dash behind the radio). 2) I then replaced the front door 6.5" speakers with Eclipse SC6500's (they have a removable tweeter). - the stereo shop replaced the dash tweeter with the tweeters from the SC6500's 3) replaced the rear 6x9's with Eclipse SP6910's 4) to power everything, I have an Eclipse XA4200 amp 5) I've also added in Sirius satellite radio. Actually the stereo shop installed the Sirius receiver in my sunglass holder. It fits perfect and is out of the way when I don't need it. The system sounds pretty good. I chose Eclipse because they are rated quite high. For their website, goto: http://www.eclipse-web.com/us/index.html Something to think about....I went out on the limb because my I didn't even my car a month and I made these changes!...am quite pleased on how they turned out. |

I think two things may be in play here. First, the economy and the fact that the hybrids are more expensive than regular cars. Car sales in general are down and the price compounds the problem. Second, the fact that gas prices relaxed some over the last year. I think price will play a role for some time, unless the gas jumps up again. We bought our NAH in May of 07 when we saw the gas prices starting to go up and our Acura RL was getting 19 mpg on premium fuel (20 cents more per gallon).

I was on a local used lot for private sellers the other day. Has a nice '07 model - they have it priced at about bluebook value - 16k for the mileage etc. However he has it written on there that it's a salvage title due to it being a recovered stolen vehicle. Assuming that was the case, will carfax or the DMV confirm the nature of the salvage title? Also what would you offer on a vehicle w/ a salvage title? A certain percent under the BB? Anything else I should know? Never bought a salvage title car, but this one looks clean and I would like to get it for the right price. |
