Thank you for your response. I need to sell my 2004 due to surgery on right wrist...hurts when I shift...plus black/snazzy just isn't me...never felt comfortable driving someone else's miles...had 39000 when I bought it, only 42 now, so I think I'll get most of my money back, plus peace of mind and less sore wrist:-)

The black rubber are the floor mats for people who have a lot of mud, snow or water tracked into their car. However, they should still give you the set of standard mats for when you don't need the rubber protection.

Here's where the invoice prices are at:
 
Go to edmunds.com
 
Select NEW CARS link
 
In the Browse by Make section select Honda
 
Select 2008 Honda Civic from the list
 
Click on the trim level of the car you are getting---I think you said an LX.
 
The MSRP and dealer invoice will show up on the next screen. These prices do not include the $635 destination charge which you have to add to that as well.
 
If you enter in your Zip Code, edmunds will also show you the price that people in your area commonly pay for that vehicle.

Tire Pressure warning light by jet10000

This morning my Tire Pressure Warning Light was on. I pulled over and checked all of my tires and they all were near 30psi. Has anyone else had false warnings on the TPMS sensors yet?
 
I'll have to take it to the dealer and see what they say.

It's not a false warning, your tires were all low. This is a fairly common thing to run into when the weather gets cold. We've had a car with TPMS for almost five years now, and every fall we get pressure warnings. Simply air your tires up to the proper inflation pressure and the warnings will stop.

Running at low pressure will really hurt your mileage too... not to mention increase your chances of a blowout.

Recommended pressure is 32psi. I made sure all tires were at 32 exactly and you were right it did go away. But when I first checked this morning, they were all around 30. Is TPMS that sensitive?

Yes. Comment, I thought that the Civic had a recommended inflation pressure of 36 psi. Yes, no?

From the 2008 Owner's Manual:
 
Cold Tire Pressure, Front/Rear
 
DX: 30psi
LX, EX, EX-L: 32psi
Si: 33psi
Si (at speeds over 118mph in a sanctioned competitive event): 35psi

Hmmm, I wonder if Honda changed the pressure requirements for 2008, I'm almost positive that I've read that the 2006-2007 spec was 36 psi. Oh well.
 
Regarding your TPMS threshold (i.e. avoiding the light), your best bet would be to fill your tires with air during the coldest time of the day and when they are cold (i.e. undriven for an hour or more), if you don't (or can't), then you'll need to compensate for the temperature fluctuations by adding a few more pounds.
 
Best Regards,
Shipo
