We were able to get about 41mpg on our 12-hour drive from Mississippi to Iowa over Thanksgiving. Got 36mpg on the way down and about 41 on the way back up. Back up the weather was nicer and we were following another car so I think it cut down a bit on wind resistance. Wind is a huge factor, and...

I can tell you that I test drove a 2012 Focus and a 2012 Chevy Cruze when I was shopping for my Civic and honestly the Civic was the best of the bunch. I bought the EX-L with Navi, so my interior is set up a bit differently than the EX, but I really don't know what all the differences are...

That MX5 Bentley conversion actually looked kinda cool I thought. LoL

The unfortunate side effect of the production cut that Honda announced in May for the rest of this year is that there has been a significant shortage of Civics available. As a result, I'm starting to hear about people paying MSRP or even more to get their hands on one of these 2012's. I agree...

I've found out that 99% of the time when I silently "boycott" a movie or series of movies, they end up being some of the best movies I've ever seen. I didn't see Avatar until I got it on Netflix in Bluray, which was probably a year and a half after it hit theaters. It is now easily one of my top...

I wonder what changed on the Insight between then and now because I'm reasonably sure that the current Honda Insights don't get anywhere close to 60mpg. I remember wanting to buy a used one when I was in high school but it was just outside of my price range. People forget that it was really the...

Very cool! Question for those of you who have been around Civics for a long time - did that early 90's (maybe late 80's?) Civic actually get 50+ mpg or was that due to the warped fuel economy rules they had back then that allowed car manufacturers to advertise fuel economy numbers that were...

Yeah I'm pretty stoked to go see one in person. I don't really care that it's FWD, and in fact for those of us who live in colder climates it's hard to justify anything that's not FWD unless you want a car you can only drive between about April and October (best case scenario). I really like...

Hi Logan - I agree with webby. Tell them the price you were offered at the other dealer and see if they can match it. TrueCar.com can be a good source for seeing what you ought to be paying for a car... here is the profile for the EX-L...

That's what I was thinking... this is the long awaited return of the S2000, at least in concept.

I don't know if this is old news or not, but thought it was cool anyway. JD Power ranked the top new cars in each category, and the Honda Insight and Honda Civic tied for first place in the Compact Car category...

Yeah I've heard a wide range for the Prius - for some reason I thought I saw a model of Prius on a news article the other day that got 40mpg highway but they might have had their facts wrong. When you do the math, it becomes harder to justify the extra expense of a Prius over a car like the...

Took this picture two hours into our trip home today. We drove from Des Moines, Iowa back home to Cedar Rapids, Iowa (2.5 hours, all interstate 70mph) and averaged a little over 45mpg. Interestingly, on the way up there yesterday, we only got about 36mpg but it was storming and we were going...

If you try to make her go to rehab, she'll just say "NO NOO NOOO" lol I know... new level of corny

Your wish is my command :-) I'm embarrassed to post the first one with all the dirt on it, but I suppose it shows the usefulness of it. haha. The 3rd photo is the trunk insert... strangely this is my favorite accessory. I'm not really sure why.

Yeah webby I think you're right on that. As far as I know, they just have the one kind. It's hard to see in the picture, but they do say "Civic" kind of diagonally on the lower right of the mat. I posted the passenger side because my driver's side is already dirty (I have a big garden plot lease...

Yeah I purchased all the accessories from the dealer. Probably could have gotten a better deal on them aftermarket, but I wasn't being too picky with the price of accessories after dropping $23k on the car (my next most expensive car I had ever purchased was $7,000 lol!)

Exactly! I've never purchased floor mats made specifically for my car before, but they didn't seem too horribly expensive and I knew I'd have to get some anyway so I figured I would give them a try. I didn't know what to expect... but I wasn't expecting the mats to be so all-encompassing...

Just thought I'd post up a few pictures with the nose-mask and floor mats installed. I've also got the trunk insert, but there's really nothing to see there (plus my trunk has got stuff in it right now). Here are my first impressions of both: Full Nose Mask: I don't know what the typical...

Just bought my Civic on June 7th, 2011. It is my first Civic and also my first ever new car after 9 years of driving used cars with high mileage. Finally broke down and bought something brand new. It's a blue 2012 Civic EX-L with the navigation system. At first, I test drove this car because it...
