Re: Honda civic 1.8 Auto RPM at highway?

of the top of my head i believe my 2006 sedan lx sits at about 2500 at 80.
I assume the coupe wouldn't be much, if any, different.

Just curious, why do you mind? There's still little to no engine noise(the road noise would cover any up anyways) and you still get good mileage. On my honeymoon I drove across the u.s. about 80 the whole way an still averaged over 35 mpg...and that was with my alignment being severely out of wack too...

Hey, the thing is for some reason i hate cars that are going 80 mph and are in the 4k rpm if its at 2500 then it isnt bad (: i just heard hondas are reaving alot on highway , thanks for your response (: can you check the mph at 3k? thanks, yours is an auto right?

Re: Honda civic 1.8 Auto RPM at highway?

I'll take the highway to work tomorrow and let you know the exact rpm for 75.
Unfortunately here in va there aren't any speed limits over 70, and the roads where I live are heavily enforced.
(a patch of highway near where i live is called the two million dollar mile, because last year the city took in 2 million dollars + in speeding tickets, but they only pulled people going 80 or higher)

Re: Honda civic 1.8 Auto RPM at highway?

I believe under the hood all the trims are the same, as far as I know the only difference is inside the car(LX has a basic radio and sound system, DX has a better sound system, EX has navigation etc.)
Things like that.

EDIT: Reverse LX and DX, had a brain fart and forgot that the LX is a higher trim than the DX)
