2012 Honda Civic in Atlanta, Honda Carland

Honda Civic Atlanta 2012

 

Did you know that Honda sells more Civics than BMW sells BMWs? Interesting? Well for 40 years Honda has been providing a quality vehicle at an affordable price to the American Car Buyer. The 2012 Honda Civic will carry the torch for Honda for 5 more years. The 2012 is classic Honda, meaning when you see the 2012- you can tell it is a Honda! Too often, I see extremely radical design changes, and my first question is – “Who makes that car?”. Honda knows what will work, and they pay close attention to protecting the sanctity of the model.  They do not “Throw the Baby out with the bath water.”

The 2012 Honda Civic will teach you how to drive economically. ECO-Assist is standard on all 2012 Honda Civics. The dash will glow green when you are conserving, and blue when you are wasting. Honda wants the burden of the automobile on the environment to reduce, and Atlanta’s air quality can use the help. The 2012 Honda Civic also will allow personalization of the instrument panel. The Multi Informational Display is

Eco Assit on all 2012 Honda Civics

Driving economically? Let the Civic show you how!

 

 fantastic. The 2012 Civic will allow you to show music, your Honda’s Fuel Stats, what file is being played through the USB, outsied temperture, odometer, and clock, and ladies and gentlemen that is on all Civics. If you go with the EX or EXL – Bluetooth comes into the picture, and this will allow you to handle all of your phone duties- handsfree and safe. Not to mention, add little photo to your dash, through your USB to hit home just how customizable the Civic line is for your needs.

The line up- Civics for everyone. You can get a Sedan or Coupe, you can get the Si in Sedan or Coupe. Honda is also introducing a HF model, which has eveything a Hybrid has – without the hybrid- including low friction tires.  A natural gas Civic or Civic NGV is available in GA. (Limited). The 2012 Honda Civic has sportier wheels, and is full of technology, including a new Lithium-Ion Battery – and an incredible 44 MPG in the City and Highway for the CVT.  The Civic has it all, whether you are looking for a Sedan or Coupe, Sporty or fuel effiecient- the 2012 Civic has it.

Please feel free to visit either of our Atlanta Honda Dealers.

2011 Acura TL in Atlanta

Acura Carland has a great selection of New and Used Acura TLs in Atlanta

Acura is coming off one of their most successful years ever. In 2010 the Acura TL brought home the top rating for IIHS Crash-test results. Automobile Magazine wrote “The Acura’s steering is lightening quick, with an overall ratio nearly as fast as a Mitsubishi Evo’s and its thick rim communicates more feedback to the driver, especially at the limit…”. The TL has become the standard in Luxury Sedans in Atlanta. Our customers enjoy their technology, but demand the style and performance that only Acura can deliver. The Acura TL offers a wide array of interior comforts that allows the driver to integrate their technologies into their Acura. USB adui interface with iPod Integration is a must have with the iPhone users. This will allow your TL to play your music files, place it on hold, and answer the phone with Bluetooth audio. This technology is fantastic, and almost makes your commute to Atlanta seem shorter.

Performance… well the 2011 TL starts at 280 HP, and ends at 305 HP. Also, if you haven’t had the chance to drive a TL, be sure to check out the TL SH-AWD.  The experts say “…the TL begs you to steer it with the throttle. The more power you add, the more neutral the TL’s balance and the faster its scrambles through the turns. Indeed, the Acura was faster than the Audi through nearly every single corner at BeaveRun.” -Automobile Magazine. The Acura TL in Atlanta would be able to handle 85, 75, 400, and an occasional qualifying round on spaghetti junction with room to spare.

Styling- Acura’s European design is like no other. The styling exudes confidence with its “Predator” front facies and wide stance, the TL is ready to play. I had the pleasure of driving a 2011 Acura TL at night. The dash cluster lights energize the driver. The Xenon High-Intensity Discharge lights cut through the darkness, and seem to guide the TL. The styling of the dash folds contour around the driver and passenger. The 2011 TL almost seems like it was built around their comfortable form fitting  seats.

Acura Carland in Atlanta has an excellent selection of the 2011 TLs. If you are looking for a “Game Changing” Sedan, the Acura TL is the way to go. Please feel free to contact Acura Carland in Duluth, GA to schedule your testdrive. Acura Carland is one of highest rated Dealers in Atlanta. Please visit our TL Specials page or browse our new and quality pre-owned TL inventory.

2011 Honda Odyssey is Here!

2011 Honda Odyssey Atlanta

Ultimate

The 2011 Honda Odysseys are at our local Atlanta  Honda Dealers. “Bullets”! The 2011 Odyssey is more Odyssey than ever. The Odyssey has captivated the mini-van market for over 10 years. Quite a feat, and deservingly so! The 2011 Honda Odyssey has more technology than ever.  The improved Odysseys will all have a CD library! What is that? Well it is really Hard Disk Drive Storage. So on the base model LX, you can store 18 CDs in an electronic folder… no more trying to remember what disk number holds Taylor Swift’s CD!  In fact you will be able to store her CD, and 17 other accomplished artists. Now, if you decide to go to the EXL, how about 15 GBs of storage, which means you can now store 3500 songs! Which may be enough for the entire  Rolling Stones, Who, Led Zepplin, and you guessed it -Taylor Swift Library (Which Artist doesn’t belong? – Joke!) !  If you want the Ultimate Mini-Van Created – The Touring Elite is the way to go? Hmm, -What does that one have? How about a 650 watt Surround sound that will move the family movie to the garage! You can even download family pictures to wallpaper for your NAVI (HDD too) screen.   How does blind spot information sound? The Elite will notify the Captain of the ship if any vehicle is detected within the blind spot area. The Elite also has the HID ( not to be confused with HDD-sorry) Headlights. They will project pure white light more precisely and further.

The EXLs and up that are  equipped with NAVIs will also have a 3 view Rear Camera. You can view in normal mode  that will provide guides for parking and tailgate allowance. Wide view which will give you a panoramic view, and then straight down. The straight down view is what NASA uses to dock with the International Space Station. I am not saying that Honda stole this technology from NASA, but I am sure several conspiracy theorists are investigating! Imagine being able to back your Honda Odyssey up to a boat, Jet Ski, or a trailer full of residential use Honda Lawn equipment!

All kidding aside. The 2011 Honda Odyssey is truly the best minivan in the Atlanta Market! If you would like to test drive or learn more about the 2011 Honda Odyssey in Atlanta. Please visit either

The 2011 Honda CR-Z hits Atlanta!

August 25th, 2010 No comments

 

2011 Honda CR-Z in Atlanta

The all new 2011 Honda CR-Z is here! It is absolutely amazing to drive. I spoke to Gary Chappelear the Shop Foreman at Honda Carland, and he was amazed with the handling. I also witnessed a huge buzz and excitement surrounding the first CRZs on the lot. The salespeople were astonished with the handling and sporty feel. I personally like th USB and Dash Layout. See for yourself feel free to visit Honda Carland in Roswell, GA or Honda Carland North in Cartersville, GA. You can view our Honda CR Z inventory by simply clicking here! I really like the spectrum white silver pearl!

Can a Honda Fit Atlanta Drivers?

July 19th, 2010 3 comments

The 2010 Honda Fit knows something… it has an airy calm or confidence around it! Here are some of my better guesses on the mystery surrSeating in the 2010 Honda Fit Atlantaounding the coolness of the 2010 Honda Fit. Could it be the recent KBB.com award for the Fit being a “Top Ten Coolest New Car under $18,000″? Or just maybe … The recent “Excellent Value” award from IntelliChoice.  Well t2010 Honda Fit Atlantahey may be the front runners, but it is not the “It” in “Fit”. The main reason is Honda Gadgetry. James Bond was known for having those clever little gadgets that seemed to draw you into watching Bond Flicks. The Fit does the same thing! “Modes” seem to tell the tale for the 2010 Honda Fits. Tall, Long, Sport, Utility- there are so many ways you can change the seating versatility to utilize the space. Too often you may have walked into a house, or a kitchen, and thought “what a waste of space”.  The 2010 Fit, simply Fits many of the storage challenges a driver may face. You can lift the seat up, or fold it down. You can lay the seat down, and even fold it to the ground.  I believe the Honda Marketers call it “Hyper Usability” which is the case in point.

To make the Honda Fit in Atlanta even more appealing. The 2010 Honda Clearance has begun, and HondaHonda Fit- Tall Mode just introduced a low 0.9% Financing for 24-60 months with approved credit! On top of that, you can lease the 2010 Honda Fit Base with Automatic Transmission for $210 a month, Sign & Drive ! ( See www.hondacarland.comfor Details). The 2010 Honda Fit is fantastic, so if you would like to schedule a test-drive, please visit www.hondacarland.com or call 770-993-2805- The Fit is Go!

2010 Acura TL vs. the 2010 Infiniti G37

July 16th, 2010 1 comment
2010 Acura TL at Acura Carland, Atlanta Acura Dealerships

The 2010 Acura TL

Other than award winning resale value and top quality ratings by Consumer Reports and JD Power, what is different from a 2010 Acura TL and a 2010 Infiniti G37 Base, you might ask? Scott Henley, the General Manager of Acura Carland was posing this question- this is what some of the answers were discussed-

Acura Advantages

The 2010 Acura TL 5-Spd AT has the following advantages over the 2010 Infiniti G37 Sedan Base:

TL 5-Spd AT has 2.6 inches more of Front Shoulder Room than G37 Sedan Base.
TL 5-Spd AT has 1.0 inches more of Rear Shoulder Room than G37 Sedan Base.
Okay, maybe I stretched the evolvement of the question, but the substance is what matters. The 2010 is a MUST DRIVE. I have asked several 2010 TL drivers during the Acura Carland  Owner Clinics, how they are enjoying their TL. The main response I get is “This Car Blows Me Away!” Resounding, yes, but let’s take a look at the field. Many Manufacturers within the Luxury Lines have hit the Panic Button, and Regressed R&D. Not Acura… Awards in Quality and Resale, back that up. Accident Avoidance, State of the Art Technology Packages have simply become what Acura is!
So if you are considering a BMW, Infiniti, Mercedes, and you would like to cash in on Quality and Value. Please allow me to tempt you with the all new 2010 Acura TL… It truly is PRECISION! Also, Acura Carland is participating in the 2010 “DRIVEN BY REASON” Summer Sale. Please take a minute to check out some more reasons to look at the ALL NEW 2010 Acura TL at Acura Carland, Atlanta Acura Dealership located in Duluth, right off I-85!
