Buying a used or CPO automobile is an art, at least when done correctly, because it can be so hard to figure out which vehicles are going to give someone the most value for the dollar. Obviously, if someone could afford a brand-new vehicle, that's what they'd get. But for those who need to get as much car as possible for the lowest sticker price, we get it, and we here at Planet…

Once upon a time, "green" was just the color of grass, money, and that green light in "The Great Gatsby." But today it holds an entirely new set of connotations, particularly in the automotive industry, where it now is synonymous with "energy efficient" and "environmentally friendly."

Those are, of course, two things that have become increasingly popular to both Honda and North Plainfield consumers, which means it has also become increasingly popular to us here…

Honda vehicles have long been recognized as some the most reliable automobiles on the planet, and here at Planet Honda, we certainly value Certified Pre-Owned Honda models as much as the next person. Our dealership stocks a ridiculously large supply of Honda Civic, Accord, and Pilot vehicles from a number of different model years, but a couple of our CPO models are especially well-regarded: the Honda CR-V crossover and the Honda Odyssey minivan.

Last year…

We here at Planet Honda have always prided ourselves on giving our customers access to vehicles in somewhat unconventional ways.

Yes, we sell plenty of new cars the old-fashioned way, with customers stepping into our showroom looking for the latest model of Accord or Civic. But we have also poured a lot of time into selling Certified Pre-Owned Honda models (have you visited our new Certified Pre-Owned supercenter yet?) and making sure that our website…

Every day, thousands upon thousands of people turn to Kelley Blue Book as a reference for buying and selling new and used cars. When it comes to putting a value on an automobile, there simply isn't a more trustworthy source in all the industry.

It's for that very reason that KBB's annual Brand Image Awards are so important. For six years now, they have conducted the Kelley Blue Book Market Intelligence Brand…

One of the tricky things about buying a new car is timing it perfectly with the best financing deals provided by your local car dealers. But we here at Planet Honda would like to save you some of the trouble, by just coming right out and saying that we've got two vehicles right now available for financing at less than 1% APR.

Both the 2013 Honda Odyssey and 2013 Honda CR-V are available through…

There's no question that minivans aren't as popular as they used to be, thanks in large part to the rampant onset of the crossover utility vehicle. But that just means those who engineer minivans are going to have to pick up the pace in terms of what these family-movers will be able to do.

While it's unlikely that we can expect the 2014 Honda Odyssey to make Julienne Fries, we were pleasantly…

When Automobile Magazine put out a list of what they consider to be the ten sportiest family-oriented vehicles in the country, there were very few people that expected the 2013 Honda Fit to be among them. After all, this is a very small hatchback with just a shade over 100 hp; what could possible land this automobile on a list with cars that that cost 4-7 times as much and produce significantly more power?

A…

Everybody knows that car shopping is a delicate balance between finding an affordable vehicle and finding a vehicle that has been reviewed well and offers lots of great features, power, and fuel efficiency. Often what consumers find is that there is a wide gap between these two things, but not when it comes to buying a Honda, and a recent accolade from U.S. News helps prove it.

The honor in question is for the…

It's easy for us to talk on and on about the totally redesigned 2013 Honda Accord, mostly because the laundry list of accolades just continues to grow the longer it's out on the market.  However, we'd like to spend a little time today reiterating that even customers on smaller budgets can afford some surprisingly fancy features in this great new car, because the base LX trim is plenty loaded all by itself…
