  • MRF 95 T-Bird I don’t think even Hoovie would buy this. “I found the cheapest Passat VR6 Syncro wagon” “and passed on it..”

  • Jeff "Honda said it would introduce seven new 0 Series vehicles by 2030, with the first models scheduled to reach the market in 2026." My take on this is the earliest these would be on the market is 2026 If then. I think Honda is going to drag their feet on this and 2030 is a more likely date. Honda is probably going to wait and see what the competition does before they do anything.
