So should I buy the Crosstour out, and have $8214 to apply to future repairs?
Should I ditch the old car and get a faster car, with better mileage and a warranty? (I like the Crosstour, but I REALLY like the Accord. The extra speed is "fun.")
The new accords are quite nice, the electronics are extremely impressive.
I see alot of customers get calls from our dealership to come-in and trade-up their early leases on new ones for similar money on similar models.
This equation doesn't work quite the same on newer models like the accord, or the soon to come 13 crosstour.
Money factors and discounts on the 12 Crosstours are INSANE right now....best deals in the entire Honda lineup.
Smart money would be to get the smokin' deal on the 12 Crosstour, and try to trade-in early for a 13 if you're inclined to go with another crosstour!
Right now - you are "upside-down" on your miles, and they're going to punish you, especially if go for the 13 accord.
it all depends on how much money you want to save/spend.
The Accord are nicer and newer -- but the best DEAL is on the 12 CT.
Ouch.
Yeah - the '13 accords are SO much nicer than the 12's.
Sorry man.
lesson learned - and now you KNOW!
One of THE most impressive things about the '13's is the elimination of the Double Wishbone front end in favor of a macpherson setup.
Wow - just wow! So much more refined, less harsh, and not to the detriment of handling!
In all honesty - I'm not sure yet if this will carry-over to the 13 crosstours, but sure HOPE so!
Get on board for a 13 accord or crosstour, and you'll be be happy again!
I leased a 2012 Crosstour. The 13's don't seem earth shattering except for the electronics.
I think the seats, the higher position, the ride, and the quietness of the 2012 is good enough for me right now. I like the car a lot. (Didn't realize it until it was gone.)
Wow! You've had quite a wild time Tom! That's good to know of your experience though...I think that you made the right choice overall, especially if you weren't happy with the 12 Accord.
Which Crosstour did you get?
Welcome back Tom, glad you were able to resolve your predicament.
