That's a nice car, man. Congrats. It has a CVT, of course. How many RPMs does it turn at 60mph? My 1993 Civic CX/VX transmission does about 2050 at 60mph. Would be fun to compare. I bet you're well under 2000 rpms.

It these wheels you no like? I love 'em... very aero too. Wish I could get 'em for my ride but they are a totally different bolt pattern. Grrr...

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
