As a newbie, I have seen several references to previous cars including Audi. I am a current Audi owner thinking about going to a CT. I would appreciate comments from those who have come from non-Hondas to CT. As my old english teach used to say - compare and contrast. thanks..

Thanks...I already like the tone of this forum, others sometimes get abit carried away and off-topic.

Audi

I came from a 15 year Audi ownership run. I've owned the A6, S4 and two A8's.

The CT. Is just as good, if not more comfortable inside than any of my Audi's and drives great in the snow here in Boston.

I wish it was a US company making this car - maybe someday, but until then, I'm in the Honda family now.

I have always owned Japanese vehicles. I'm glad that as of this posting, it's not a newer Toyota.

 

[crosstourohio?]

bradr - thanks! I have not yet had the opportunity to drive the CT. Our family has been predominantly German - Audi and VW. We did have a Honda del sol for a while as our third toy.

Yeah, but I think they meant made by one of the Big 3, which are not so big anymore.

My Wife come out of her 7 year old Murano, and she just can't stop talking about her new CT. Heck, she has yet to let me even have the keys.

I've had the Ridgeline from when they first came out. We're now a two Honda family and there both great vehicles.

 

[crosstourohio?]

Tbird - thanks. I know the feeling about getting the keys. My wife has a VW R32 and the only time I get the keys is when it needs fueled up...

The new CT is my wifes and we sold her 06 Pilot last Dec when we fell in love with the CT. I never really cared for the Pilot because of the truck ride and horrible fuel economy. However, the Pilot was absolutely trouble free over the course of 4 years and 87K miles.

Traded in 06 Accord EX and it's so much better than the Accord and I loved my Accord.

Acura RL...CT ride quality is much better.

I traded in a 2008 Accord Coupe. The coupe was nice, but the CT was a good move for me.
