Yep ... what RH77 said ... but we Americans suffer more from the addictions to larger, more powerful vehicles than our brethren to the north.

Yes, the Europeans have always driven smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles that would look absolutely absurd on North American highways mixed in with our current traffic.

One thing though, I've seen the pictures of the late-model European Civic on this site with rear wheel skirts ... but they sure seem rare. I'm surprised they aren't standard features on nearly every European car made by now.
