Replying to: cnguser (Nov 17, 2006 1:03 pm) as for the CVT issues, 2006 and on no longer have CVTs, so that won't be an issue. i'm sure that murphy can offer some insight on CNG motor durability, but my understanding is that a CNG engine is likely to last >10% longer than it's gasoline brothers. the tank itself has a lengthy warranty on it already ... which leaves the rest of the car, which of course is simply a civic LX, and likely quite reliable over the long term. it's a honda!  hope to have you join the community soon, epi

Replying to: bank1avp (Nov 17, 2006 3:26 pm) I also swear by synthetic oil, I have an Astro Van that has 295k on it and I rarely had to add oil in between the 10k oil changes. They say you can go 10k in a GX with conventional oil, but I would not recommend it. Murphy, great job on the CNG prices on your site. Anyone know if you need an access card for the Riverside city yard? I see the price is 1.43! I am sure Ontario probably has a good price, but the few times I filled there, the fills were lousy (3,000psi). Even when I used the 3,000 fill at the Hemet station I could still easily make my 143 mile commute. Last fill I went 188 miles and the fuel light did not come on (GG-CE) J |

Any of you out there have extended warranties on your GX's if so did you get it through the Honda dealer you bought the car from or an aftermarket company and what did you pay? Deductable too please. Murphy

Replying to: bank1avp (Dec 04, 2006 8:32 am) I bought a Honda extended warranty from the dealer when I purchased a new 2004 Civic Hybrid for my daughter. It is seven years/100,000 miles with no deductible. I was able to get a substantial reduction in the price of the warranty as part of the negotiation of the total price of the car. I bought a Honda extended warranty from the dealer when I purchased my new 2006 Civic GX. It is eight years/120,000 miles with no deductible. I found it interesting that I was able to negotiate a lower price for this warranty than I was for the warranty that I purchased for the Hybrid two years earlier. When I was negotiating this deal, I was unaware that the salesman with whom I was dealing was also going to be the person doing the paperwork. Thus, the "finance" person didn't need to get his/her share of the profit from "selling" the warranty. I was pleasantly surprised how low they would go with the price of the warranty. I promised the dealer that I would not post the price that I paid for the car or related items. Suffice it to say, there is a lot of dealer profit built into the price of the extended warranty. Neither the 2004 Civic Hybrid nor the 2006 Civic GX has enough age or mileage to received coverage beyond the standard three years/36,0000 yet, so I haven't had an occasion yet to see the level of customer service I will get from the extended warranties. Also, these two cars are the first Hondas that I have ever purchased. In the past, I have always had enough warranty work done on my cars to more than pay for the cost of the extended warranties (after market or dealer purchased). We'll see if the same is true for the Hondas |

I want to know where I can buy a used GX in Los Angeles. I found only one in the Recycler. My 05 is so much fun I want another.

In looking over many tell-it-all web sites for "dealer costs", none appear to have anything on the '07 GX. Am interested in ordering one, but am not the type who deals from the MSP down. It is best to go in armed with close to accurate info and work from that, upwards if need be. Even Consumer Reports does not have it on their fee charge info price line. This Edmonds site under what people have paid for the GX implies full list price paid - I don't want to go there. Anyone out there found something on the '07 GX dealer cost? What did you end up paying for the bare car, excluding tax, license, extras, etc?
