Oh also, this will get decent mpg right? Think I could achieve 40mpg with careful driving?
I agree with Pale: Civic VP. Not that it matters much. For mpgs, DX/LX/VP will be the same; same engine, same tranny.

Functionally, the SG2 and Ultragauge are pretty similar but the Ultragauge is cheaper... I'm happy with my Ultragauge.

And I'd guess 40mpg will be an upper limit for a set-it-and-forget-it approach with that automatic. High 30's will be more likely.
