Seems reasonable...

DC2 used to get ~32 on the commute, and this is heavier and bigger engine. 30.6 seems about what I was hoping for.
Certainly better than my RX8 that struggled to better 20mpg ! !
(and *much* better than the Charger ! ! )

Still loving it :)

I get annoyed if i dont Hit VTEC on every journey :| :p

i know but it makes it harder to work out. I know what i was getting previously with my last car so with the price increase i cant compare now ive got the DC5.

Thats true....

And its gonna get better. This weekend (now I get a chance to see it in daylight) I'm gonna chase out the one annoying rattle (found a trim plug, so I guess that is why).
Also gonna reverse the seatbelt mounting to get rid of the twist.

Then I reckon she will be perfect ! :)
