Why won't you just order what you need on carsdirect.com or likes of
such
if you can't deal with the dealers? I think the whole purpose of sites
like that is to help people like you get what you want.

What a noob! What a maroon! Imagine this chump thinking that anyone in
a forum about for people who buy and use Honda automobiles would care
how Honda automobile dealers are treating Honda automobile buyers - or
potential buyers, at any rate.
This guy is priceless! What a rube!

Hey Dave,
Tell me how you really feel....
That aside, the OP has continually whimpered about his
problems...while only providing HIS perspective. Since you appear to
know the other side, please present it in a concise manner...and try
not to use seventh grade taunts. It should be interesting.
