What rpm and mph do you cruise at on the highway, like is it better at say 65 then 75 far as noise etc.

Cool thanks


The base lx in silver looks nice with the std wheels, best color I liked so far with that set up, but you really have to see the car in person to really tell for sure.

Will be using the car for 20% highway and the rest local around town stuff so don't see that being a problem.

Leaning towards buying the ex over the lx now.

Reasons

Like the better wheels and chrome.

Is the interior the same inside on both models, or does the ex have a upgraded interior.

Do without no buttons on the radio, sunroof kind of a push.

Approximately 1200 rpm difference in steady highway cruising between CVT and 6MT. Even though I currently own three Hondas (one is CVT) and REALLY wanted a new Fit, I don't want another CVT, and Honda's engineers totally screwed up the manual ratios! The larger Civic with 1.8 engine and 5 speed beats the smaller and lighter Fit...who woulda thunk?
Dang it! I'm even considering a Fiesta with the 1.0 liter ecoboost...at least they got the ratios right in the std 5 speed manual.

Yes they really missed the boat, when buyers see 6 speed they think of a true o/d their really is no excuse.

Almost makes me want to fix my truck.
