According to Honda, the full announcement and reveal will occur at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 29.

After what we've seen Honda do with the new design of the 2013 Accord, we're expecting all sorts of enhancements to this new Civic."

Honda says the 2013 Civic "will encompass a host of safety, feature, comfort, chassis and interior styling enhancements that will further define the top-selling Civic as the best car in the compact class.

Hyundai Car Care: Transmission Care



1-888-CONICELLI or www.conicellihyudai.com

A healthy transmission is crucial for smooth operation



One of the most important parts of your Hyundai, and often a part you rarely think of, is the transmission. Proper transmission maintenance, while not necessary as frequently as other routine maintenance tasks, is still an important part of increasing your vehicle’s longevity.

Getting power from your Hyundai’s engine to its wheels is the job of the transmission. The gears in the transmission help multiply the torque from the engine to get your vehicle started from a stop, and they reduce the engine speed needed to drive at highway speeds for less noise and fuel consumption. Transmissions come in automatic and manual varieties. Automatic transmissions contain planetary gear sets and hydraulically operated clutches, instead of the foot-pedal clutch found in a manual, to engage the gear that’s needed at any particular time. The hydraulic fluid, and the filter that keeps the fluid clean, are the only parts that need any regular maintenance.

Newer transmissions are sealed to help prevent leaks, and many modern transmissions don’t need any service until 100,000 miles or more. Older transmissions need to have the fluid and filters replaced more frequently. Repairing damage if the transmission isn’t sealed up properly after fluid and/or filter maintenance can get very expensive, so transmission service is a job best handled by your dealer’s service department.


The driver-operated clutch in a manual transmission vehicle consists of a pressure plate that squeezes a friction disk against the engine flywheel. Most newer clutches are operated by a hydraulic cylinder that needs to be kept full of fluid, and the reservoir can be easily checked by anyone and topped off if necessary.
The condition and lifespan of the clutch itself is dependent on how the driver uses it. A driver who doesn’t slip or ride the clutch can have it last 100,000 miles or more. Someone who rides their foot on the clutch pedal can overheat it, causing it to wear out prematurely. Replacing a burned out or worn clutch is a difficult job that should be handled by a dealer. The gearbox also contains a thick lubricating oil to keep heat and noise levels down, and this should be drained and replaced according to the recommended maintenance schedule.

Conicelli Nissan Offers Nissan Employee Pricing to Hurricane Sandy Storm Victims

For the rest of the year, eligible car owners can get Nissan Employee Pricing when replacing vehicles damaged by Hurricane Sandy

In an effort to support the victims of Hurricane Sandy, Conicelli Nissan in Conshohocken, Pa. will offer Nissan's employee pricing (VPP A-Plan pricing) and NMAC VPP Special APR to eligible individuals in FEMA-designated disaster areas who need to replace vehicles lost or damaged to the hurricane.

From now through January 2, 2013, qualified customers are eligible for the Nissan employee level Vehicle Purchase Program discount -- which is a fixed discount below dealer invoice based on model -- in addition to NMAC VPP low APR financing, or current factory rebates or other incentive offers.

Conicelli Nissan, in Conshohocken, Pa., is eager to participate in this program from Nissan. By offering both employee pricing and employee financing rates to storm victims, this is one way Conicelli Nissan can help them return to normal.

Warren Lewis, General Sales Manager of Conicelli Nissan, says "We're very pleased that Nissan is being so generous. To do our part, as an enhancement of Nissan's program, we are adding a year of free maintenance to any vehicle bought at Conicelli Nissan through this program."

Who is eligible?

Eligible customers: Residents of the states of Maryland, New York, Massachusetts, District of Columbia, Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware, West Virginia, Virginia, and New Hampshire (designated by FEMA as a disaster or emergency area affected by Hurricane Sandy), whose existing vehicle was damaged due to Hurricane Sandy between October 26th and November 5th, 2012, and that can validate the vehicle's damage through insurance requirements.

Customer must provide proof of vehicle ownership. The offer is transferable within the same household. Proof of residency must be provided.

This offer is non-transferable to other family members or friends outside the household.

Limit one new replacement vehicle at the Nissan Employee Level Pricing per claim (i.e., if three vehicles are damaged, three are eligible for replacement).

Which vehicles are eligible?

Eligible new vehicles: All new Nissan models except GT-R and Versa S Trim Sedan. Current incentives for vehicles may be combined with the Nissan employee pricing.

Information about the specific areas affected may be found at the Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, (www.fema.gov).
