Hybrid Price Thought [View Article] (Score: 1, Normal)

Maybe the price tag is so high because Honda knows that the next generation hybrid system is going into this car and they know that it is going to be more expensive than the current IMA so making the price so high now will allow them to keep the price the same and still make money on it when they put the new system in....?

Just a thought.

Thanks for the review Jeff. I would love for my next car to be an Acura, but I'm glad I don't need a car now and can wait until Earth Dreams hits.

I don't care if they put a unicorn under the hood in the next generation...they aren't going to sell but a handful at that price.

I think all their models are going to get a unicorn, come 2016.
