    I don't believe in hyper-miling. I get about 31mpg in normal driving on the highway, and that's good enough for me.

      So you feel it doesn't exist?

          No matter how hard I drive my motorcycle. I have never gotten worse than 55mpg. Whether I do 65 or 80 on the Interstate. So hypermiling is no concern. Just get a bike.

          Its a cool concept. focusing on making a car more fuel efficient. But for hondas. it just sounds like another excuse to "shave" and "delete" stuff for that that "jdm" look.

            Didn't say it doesn't exist. I just don't, and won't do it. More power to those who do.

              Sure you did.  You said you 'Don't believe in Hypermiling'  That is like saying, 'I don't believe in bigfoot'.

                                      You can buy one just like it in silver, for about 4k with 70k on it! 

                                      But seriously. What a nice car for 3200. I wonder if they seriously suck or something..

                                        I've heard they are VERY problematic.  You could have gotten a good one though.  Good luck!!

                                          Yea I haven't heard the best about them either.  They're kind of a turd as well in the power department but for a winter beater you really can't get any nicer!
