Right, but it is not like a Civic SI is going to walk all over a twin.

The rubber on either vehicle would also make a drastic difference in those times

The Civic Si has more torque which helps his launch, but is FWD which hurts his launch.

Definitely a driver's race.

Hah, I have to "suit up" in my new job but it never occurred to me I needed to hang my coat. I just throw it "relatively neatly" in the passenger seat.

A car this slow shouldn't need premium. I wish they stick with GDI only so it would run on regular without problem in the long run.

No way.. That 12.5:1 cr makes the throttle response quick.. Well worth the extra cost for fuel.. You're just not working it enough if you think it's too slow..

Muaddib · 06-15-2013, 02:25 PM

Ya well i am sure you will probably complain if you are paying close to 1.60 for a liter of 94 octane.

Maybe you should have gotten a Prius..
Getting 29 avg with a heavy right foot.. Not much to complain about..

Sasquachulator · 06-15-2013, 02:35 PM

why don't you guys just put your suits in the trunk, laid flat?

Or fold down the rear seats and lay it down flat

ihaskrayon · 06-15-2013, 02:35 PM

I hate when people complain about gas. you're only spending like $2 more per tank...

Muaddib · 06-15-2013, 05:45 PM

Maybe in the states it is only 2 dollars more. But here it is about 10 bucks more each fill up.

jshadeck · 06-15-2013, 06:22 PM

How are u going to complain that a car is slow and then wish it was slower so u could run cheap gas? The car is tuned to run on premium regardless of slow/fast. Alot of luxury cars are slow and they are tuned to run premium too.

If its a high end jacket treat it nice, keep it away from the dry cleaners or you'll get that glazed look. Yeah it wrinkles, never drive with it on. Linen is the worse. Never drink coffee with it on.

Make it look good and it makes you look good, wrinkles are not professional, trust me. Okay back on topic.

Even better is to use the child latch if you have more than one batch of dry cleaning. You've got two latches in there, perfect.
