It's not slander if it's true.

Okay, we've now heard a bad report and a good report of Fairfax Honda.  Now
permit me to provide one that's in-between.

Last July I was looking for a new car; I'd previously bought Accords and been
reasonably happy with them, so I went to FH to have a look at the '98 models.
 I test-drove a Civic and an Accord, and wasn't particularly thrilled with
either one.  The Civic was noisier than I'd like, and they seem to have
lowered the roof on the new Accord so I bumped my head on the ceiling when I
sat up straight.  But the salesman was extremely pushy, and kept trying to
sell me a car which I'd already told him I wasn't happy with.  As far as
getting an excellent deal, the salesman told me that they might be able to
give me some discount on a Civic, but the sticker price of the Accords was
non-negotiable.

I didn't get conned out of my money, but it was an unpleasant experience for
me, and I'm not going back there.
