Replying to: johneboy (Apr 02, 2008 1:26 pm) I have to agree with the interior cloth problems. The beige and the blue are both pretty poor choices, as well as limiting the colors available for the hybrid. There is pretty much one good color, Silver. Also, whats with the lack of a sunroof! That is lame. I have heard that some dealers will install the leather seats in the civic, but it is expensive of course. But then again, how much are the details of a car that important. The silver looks nice, the blue seats are liveable, and you can get your own rims if you really hate the solid wheels. I still think the drivetrain of the hybrid is pretty solid, and the better mileage is always a nice addition.

The car felt tight and according to my wife it had enough pep for her. Pulling out onto the highway was fine, seats were comfortable. It had a much nicer feel than a Prius. We took our HCH home yesterday. 46-50 mpg right off the lot. I can't drive it yet, I have a broken leg.
