The Accord EX V6 with navi costs me less than 27K total on last May. Todays' Civic hybrid with navi will cost me around 25K total.
I was prepared to see that $2000 saving is on smaller car/engine, not on the interior built quality. The MSRP difference is around 7 to 8K difference, the real market price is pretty close.

I believe that I am fair to ask Honda to put better material in the HCH for selling at only $2000 difference.
