I have to ask, and the very end of the video what was the point of video taping reving your si to 3100 rpm? Were you trying to show how easy it is to make to rpms barely go up? Im just wondering? Also, why didnt you do something interesting in the video like to a launch, or hit the gas and show you accelerating quickly? After all you bought a performance car for a reason didnt you?
If you remembered it, it did its job. No real reason for it just flowed with the video.
The car was brand new off the lot so I was babying her. These videos are more for the 1st new car experience than anything else. Hence, the video title.
If i were you i would not have able to keep myself from doing a few launches and v-tecing a little bit. When i bought my 09 civic LX i was flooring it right off the lot and as soon as i got on the freeway i was already hitting 90 and giving wide open throttle every 2 seconds haha.
@Edgarwinter I think because you need to break the car in for like 1000 miles before you do some hard reving. Although newer cars don't need to be broke in, i'll hold off on it. Better be safe than sorry.
Should have waited for the new cobalt turbo to come out.. its cheaper and much much faster.. why did you go with the sedan? the coupe is nicer lookin.. not tryin to hate on you i like the si blue and congrats on your first real investment
yea def agreein with gohan on this one. your parents would be insane to get a kid a mustang or somethin.. the si isnt really fast at all, in fact its a good car to learn stick on because of the smooth shifting they put in it
Whats your average mpg in just city driving? I'm thinking of getting an Si but 90% of my driving is in the city. Its rated at 21, but do you usually do better? By the way, I'm loving the color of your ride...
ahh.. yes. Last refill 9.67gal at 244mi. You do the math. This is shifting below 4500rpm in traffic and VTECing it at least 3-4 times a day on open roads (less or no traffic).
I just filled up mine tonight at 281.9 miles and used 9.47 gallons...29.7 mpg! The vast majority of that was highway driving, and shifting below 4000 rpm otherwise (with the occassionally VTEC of course and a few times going up to 5000, but sparingly). EPA rates this at 21 city/29 highway, so mine fits in about right.
but anyways, while we're on the topic of gas mileage, i have a 2000 Honda Prelude. and i've found that running in mid to high RPM's actually gives me better gas mileage. running it into the VTEC helps a lot. i used abut a gallon and a half on this twisty road that was 40.9 miles long. i never floored it but i never let the revs go below about 4500.
so i dont know, just thought i'd throw that in there.
I am not sure how you calculated 1 gallon and a half. Next time you fill up (gas pump stops automatically) reset the trip meter and drive like you always do. Then at your next pit stop take the miles recorded on your trip meter and divide that by the amount of gallons you needed to refill the tank. Then let me know what you get.
hhahahaa that sucks for u si owners i have a 08 honda civic lx coupe all black with racing seats and i forgot to mention that i put a rear mounted turbo in it and i get 39 mpg =)
well i filled it up before i went on the road and then when i got off of it i immediately wen to fill it up. i put roughly a gallon and a half in. and since then i have calculated my MPG and i get 23-24. but yea sorry for the earlier confusion.
I've been meaning to, but I'm real busy with work right now. I need a dang digital camcorder. I can only take multiple 20 second vids with my digital camera.
man you must have paid like 35 grand to get it. With that kind of money you should have bought the new lancer evo... much faster and sexier I would say. But it's great anyway cause I myself own an 07 si coupe hahaha
how long did it take for you car to come in or was it at the dealer when you bought it? i'm looking at getting one, and was wondering how long they take to get shipped.
Congrats on ur car dude..I bought one bout a month ago..Except my color is white..Damn i wanted a blue one sooo bad..How much did u pay cause i only paid 21500 for it brand new..
congrats on the new civc si. my friend just bought a 2 door and i made a video of it for him. you should check it out on my youtube page.
i really love that blue you got. my s2000 is laguna blue pearl. that is a pretty color. are you going to modify it? how many miles did that say at the end? 23.3 or 233?
Thanks! I just finished watching your video - cool!
233 - Dealer trade - I did not want to wait so they claim they drove it 100+ miles (it's probably a demo car - I don't mind). Got free gas and a couple of free oil changes.
want this to be my first car so badly!
