Drivers on a budget deserve cool cars. There are on a few of them out there and you can find them at Norris Honda. According to Jack R. Nerad, Executive Editorial Director and Executive Market Analyst, kkb.com (Kelley Blue Book online) says, "There are great deals to be had on many cars, costing under $18,000, but only a handful of them really possess that cool, difficult-to-describe 'it' factor [i.e., the 2011 Honda Fit and 2012 Honda Civic]."1
Now, while it may look like we were being coy, slipping the Honda Fit and Civic in there like that, we assure you we aren't. Every year KKB releases a "Top 10 Cool Cars Under $18,000" list. As the name indicates, the KKB's goal is to share the diamonds in the rough... cars priced under18 grand that are both fun to drive and perceived as hip to own. This year, the 2011 Honda Fit and 2012 Honda Civic ranked fourth and sixth respectively.
Praising the 2011 Fit, on its fun driving experience, flexibility, and funky styling, KKB says, "...the Honda Fit remains a unanimous choice for our annual cool cars list. Even the crisper, better-equipped Fit Sport comes in under the $18,000 ceiling."2 The less obvious choice, reminding drivers that understated presence can be cool too is the 2012 Honda Civic.
KKB writes fondly, "Cool doesn't always have to be in your face...the 2012 Honda Civic, for example. Its attributes read like a thought-out online dating profile: Good-looking but not flashy, low maintenance and easygoing...but happy to be your partner in crime...(insert winky face here)."3
