I went to the DMV to get it inspected. The guy couldn't find the gas lid opener so he skipped that part until the end and then asked me how to open it.

About 30mins after I took delivery on Saturday, I went to practice driving manual transmission and I let someone cross the parking lot in front of me. She is talking to her friend/sister/whomever and says "oh it's a honda."

It reads over 199 in kilometers, so it's not a limitation of the cluster... Are you saying the sensor can't read faster than that? Just curious.

The first digit appears to be only capable of a 1. Weird, I never switched it over to KPH to test.

Let me see if I can find a pic...
