I will also shed a tear for that old Metro. Sad to know that rust-free shell is going to be recycled into a small portion of an Escalade or something more profitable!
I'm seeing Civic prices all over the map! A local dealer has a 2-door version, same year, with half the miles on it for more than TWICE the price.
Speed vs. RPM: rev it & weep!
This car is not very good in sub/urban driving ... if you have to hit the brakes unexpectedly, it takes a
lot of effort to fight the average back into respectable territory.
I struggled to get ~38 mpg US on a short, cold start round trip of a couple of km on the weekend with two unexpected stops from cruising speed.
