Good Read

Although I am not a Honda driver, I do like the fact that they are pretty durable, I am a Ford guy through and through but I have a buddy of mine that has the 1999 Civic HX 2 door with a trunk, it has the 1.7L (don't know the engine designation), but unfortunately he has a buffet table attached to his decklid

It seems like this new engine has a lot of new technology going for it. My only question is "Can it match the Civic VX in FE?" If not, then idonwanit
