I bought a '06 Laguna Blue one on friday, should receive it in a couple weeks when it arrives. Will take some pics and post them once i get it. Paid 31,583 before tax & lic.

By the way, do you guys think it's worth paying 1800 dollars for the extended warranty which is 6 yrs / 75000 miles? (includes cost of parts & labor plus towing and rental coverage)

Extended warranty is risky, since they will bill you for a problem analysis fee (around $180 here) and only refund you if HondaCare agrees to do the warranty work. Because of that, I am hesitant to bring my car in for small things such as clicking rear end, soft-top wear.

I did have a broken latch replaced under extended warranty, but it was hardly worth mentioning.

I walked around and sat in one of these at the local dealership here last saturday. The color is just freaking perfect, loved it. Makes me want to trade in my Sebring... :-(

I didn't get to test drive it though because it was on the show room floor and was the only '06 they had and they weren't really letting people drive it yet. The sales person did joke with me about upgrading to the next years model though because he saw me pull up in my S...

I just got back from Atlanta and saw one of the new blue cars and it looked stunning.

The local super dealer, Nalley had a bunch of fresh of the truck toys sitting in their Lexus lot (650 i convert, 750 sedan, A3, xk8, etc..) including a new blue S2000.

Here are a couple shots of The Raptor's car next to mine and my husband's that I just took on Sunday.


^Laguna Blue 2006, Suzuka blue 2005, Silverstone 2001.


^The Laguna Blue has the Honda wing or spoiler, and the other two have the Honda trunk lip, I think it's called.


^The Laguna Blue has the front bumper lip.
