That is exactly the type of comments that I received. I am very glad I made the trade, especially with the gas mileage that I am now getting. There is truly no comparison in that regard.

Re: Planning to buy a HCH 06 in Boston...Questions
I just thought I'd mention a big factor in the price you get is your negotiating ability.
Every large-ticket item, house piano car, sells for as much as that seller can get, at that location, on that day, from that buyer.
Need fewer troops to support.
Drive a hybrid.
Best tank 71.65 MPG.
Before this car I spent two years learning hypermiling on my 2004 HCH1.

Re: Planning to buy a HCH 06 in Boston...Questions
Hi, Sorry I didn't see this earlier. I bought my HCHII at Majestic Honda in Lincoln, RI. It's an easy drive (about 45 minutes from Boston). I waited two months for my HCHII, but that was for financing reasons that had nothing to do with the dealer. They generally have one coming in every three weeks, and demand there is a bit less. I paid 22,000 even for the car (plus tax, title, etc.)
I had a really good experience there. I would heartily recommend it.

Great to see a positive review!
I hope the car does you well for years to come.

An ex GF had one of those and said the mileage was terrible. I didn't realize it was that bad. Too bad for her

My folks had the G35 Sedan (RWD, not AWD) and got in the low 20's even with my dad's lead foot at age 76 (nearly 77).

What killed the mileage on my G35 was the bumper to bumper rush hour traffic.

Re: Planning to buy a HCH 06 in Boston...Questions
I bought my 2006 civic from Honda Village and was very happy with the service. Waited about 3 weeks for a metalic pearl w/ navi. that was already ordered and on the way.
Good luck.
