loaner car?
guys i'm takin my civic in for maintenance this friday to a honda dealer, and they said they were gonna give me a "company car" to use for the time my car is being serviced. just wondering wat kinda car should i expect? can i request a certain car and can i request it be standard?

*crossing my fingers for an S2000 but i KNOW thats not gonna happen *

consider yourself lucky that you are even get a rental.
its a complimentary service that is not mandatory.
dont be picky cuz they will just refuse you if they get annoyed.

I would say if you do get a loaner it will be an 4dr auto. Most likely something used that's been sitting on the lot for a while. ie. echo, focus, suncrap, etc

No dealership in there right mind will loan out an S2K.

Not so, they usually give you a honda vehicle, more than likely a 4 door civic.

ask for a ferrari and accept nothing less. tell them you know your rights as a consumer and say "haven't you heard the customer is always right?"

right about to swallow their teeth haha
