Damn! I better take my foot off the gas for a while! I only get about 23-25 in the city [8D] O-well, I didn't buy it for the fuel economy! hehehe. I did try and stay off the gas one week and I got about 28 with some highway driving but it was mostly city....still pretty good to me.

 

hahahahahahaha......... yeah, i drive slow. i jus like to drive around and enjoy the ride.

Yeah I normaly would drive that way too but for the last 2 years I was driving an old beat up 1990 Ford (Cli)Taurus and coming from that slow POS I think I have a lot of built up frustration that needs to be let out. [sm=devilgrin.gif]

 

I'm averaging about 30 MPG in almost all city driving.

I drive like an idiot too. lol.

I blip the throttle alot while heel-and-toe driving and accelerating out of the corners. that's murder on the gas mileage...

 

thanks a lot guys for your input!

 

does anyone have performance parts out for the 06 si yet?

 

hi,
just joined today, i bought my new 06 civic in january and im getting between 35-40 ish. the new civic is hard to beat i had been chasing it since it was first advertised. i have the the EX MODEL I.8 IVTEC (NIGHTHAWK BLACK), EXCELENT CAR. I used to have a 53 reg before this 1.4 only but i would highly recommend the new shape better.

thanks for the input again

 

I got my 06 Civic Ex sedan - Auto tranny with 12 miles on the odo.

It came with a full tank and When the low fuel light came on I got some fuel. It took 10.4 gallons to fill up. I can't remember how many miles it was at the time. I averaged between 34 and 35mpg. I drive mostly interstate, with mixed country highway driving. Next Monday evening I will have had it 3 weeks. I now have 1600 miles on it.

The Dash light go very dim if you want them to - not a distraction at all. It's the best gauge setup of any vehicle I've driven.

I love my car!
