Glaring error on American Honda's website

Post by GatorGreg »

Anyone else notice the glaring (pun intended :D ) error on American Honda's website for the 2016 PCX? They boast about the new LED lights yet they clearly show a non LED equipped model with turn signal stalks. As Ditka would say "COME ON MAN!!! :D

It's a pic of the 2013 model's headlight cluster. They probably didn't bother to update all the images. The windscreen is the giveaway.

Yeah from the side it's clearly the '16.

But the photos from the front look like the '13 to me.

What's weird is that for the '15 model year which you can still toggle to on their site, they have pics of what looks like a correct black '15 with no signal stalks but it's not a dead on front view of the headlight cluster, unlike the red one featured for '16 where you can clearly see the halogen bulbs and signal stalks so someone at Honda either F'd up or got lazy and decided to just use an old '13 pic :D

right...as I said "It's a pic of the 2013 model's headlight cluster." The full pic is the 2016 model, but the pic of the headlight cluster is from the 2013 model.

You are lucky the US site doesn't even work for me.

You'll have to call Canada and buy a metric version? Image

NHTSA might still need stalk mounted turn signals though?

False advertising. Anybody who buys a 2016 thinking it came with non-LED lights and turn signal stalks can get his or her money back.

I would be happy to get the non stalks and LED version - so much better.

I was joking about getting a refund. Should have added: ;)
