Urban Titanium

The 2005 Honda Civic is in Tucson. The Grand Prix is 16 years old now. The Jimmy is 15 years old now. I guess that means it's time to buy a new car.

We have always found that Hondas are reliable and a good value. So, when it came time to look for a reliable 4-wheel-drive, we first thought of a Honda CRV. We looked online and the 2 or 3 year old CRVs were selling for the same price as a new one, so we headed to the Honda dealer in Bountiful to look at the new ones. We also looked at Toyotas and Fords, but they couldn't compare.

There's more to this story, but to make a long story short, we drove home the new CRV last night. What color? Urban Titanium. Now that is a cool name for a color, don't you think?

How fun to have a new car. That color sounds like science fiction. We need to get together so we can see it.

Does titanium change it's color when moved from a rural to urban environment? Did Willey have any more s2000s, or are they all gone? They stopped making them in 1999, so by now there may be no more available to by new. I'm not sure when we'll get up to Utah next..but since you now have a new honda, to make room I can take the 1988 version off your hands.

You're welcome to have the 1988 version, but no guarantees it would make the trip back to AZ. Also, one more condition, you would have to get rid of the red GP, AKA "death trap".
