I would buy another one in a heartbeat, possible used if I could get a big enough discount.

No turbo just the 74 hp standard, 4 hp bump on the 2017 model. I wish top ger overall gearing was about 20% taller.

It will do 55 at 55, not sure about 70, the only time I have done that is on the Interstate here, mostly in heavier traffic. I can get 55, but without the traffic helping me along at 70 it would probably drop into the mid forties.

Thanks! I have been looking at either one of these or a new gen civic (turbo), but I think I'll wait until the manual version of the turbo civic comes out and make a decision then.
