Actually that's "Diesel power only" max speed for hybrid models. Top speed is 220k (140mph) -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RENFE_Cla… Same as our Portuguese "Alfa" -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_Pend…

After the crash conductor on the phone to headquarters admitted he was "going hard" and at a point said 180/190kph... Apparently unaware they were on an 80 zone.

Surveillance cam video of the crash. Overspeed.

Unless there's heavy traffic, there's no "tailgating" only lane hogging... Clear lane, move over.

Good tip. I'll try to remember that one later on.

...well. You got a point. And can still get a better Civic available than me. Damn.

Don't complain... at least you get the Si with proper rear suspension. We get the hatchback with a piece of iron connecting the back wheels in Europe. No 4door, n coupe.

Indeed. Perfect fit too.

Yes. But not "that bad"... it causes additional vibration and wear on, well mostly everything. But it's not like - destroy the engine mounts in a month - kind of bad.

We drive with the right foot planted on the gas (occasionally brake) and the left on the foot rest. Which actually helps you "feel" the car, maintaining your body pressed to the seat in every situation. Brake pedals are not well placed or work well for left foot braking on "normal" driving conditions. Your left foot…

Can't get more American than that...
