I'm looking at buying an Accord hybrid in early-mid 2015 and was wondering if some of you folks had experiences shopping at Charlotte-area Honda dealers you would be willing to share.  I've shopped Honda of Concord and Scott Clark Honda before (didn't purchase though), and SC seems like they're willing to give a better deal over Honda of Concord (plus HoC adds $1200-$1500 worth(less) of extras.)  

 

I'm willing also willing to hear what others have to say about dealers outside of the Charlotte area.  I've heard some good things about Leith Honda in Raleigh but never traveled out that way.

Avoid Metro Honda in Monroe/Indian Trail area at all costs. My wife bought a car there and they took it for a final wash before she was supposed to leave dealership after paperwork was finalized. They brought the car and opened door for her so she can get in with no questions asked, kind of rushed her out which was weird. It was dark so I decided to walk to my wife to wish her safe trip when I noticed that almost entire right side was scratched and dented. The fugers side swiped her car when they took it for final clean and tried to get her out of the dealership on damaged accord. The second she leaves, it's not their problem anymore and she's totally liable.

I asked them what is the process for returning a car and they said I can't. They said they will fix it for free and will make sure it's not on carfax report. I said don't want damaged car and he said I'm poo out of luck. Pretty much told me and my wife to fug off because contract has been signed.

I've used their service dept for years for my acura and wife's van.  Just bought a used vehicle from them too, and so far no complaints, but that is messed up if they tried to push you out the door and hoped you wouldn't see the damage.

That's BS.  IIRC you can return it under law.  Never ask a dealer anything, tell them.  They are the scum of the earth.

That's exactly what they did.  It was a tall, skinny guy in his late 40's early 50's.  If that happened today, I'd call cops right away to get a report.

They've all blown in my experience

 

They expect the cars to sell themselves

 

They refuse to negotiate

 

They drove us away from honda and straight to mazda for the wife's mom-mobile.

 

This. I did the exact same thing, even got a Mazda back in 99, and no major repairs 16 years later closing in 130,000 miles and negotiated 4 grand off the sticker. Honda, there is no negotiation. My advice is try and find teh car you want NOT at a Honda dealership. I bought an suped up Accord  at the tyota dealership on 74/485 for 13k and turn around and sold in 4 days later for near 18k.

 

 

Also agree with the Monroe/Indian trail Honda dealer. Don't go there.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
