Thanks for the iinfo, I've not made up my mind
yet to get another car, but if I do, I'm leaning towards
the HX 5 speed. My commute is mostly interstate. But since
I've paid off my accord I enjoy not having to make that payment
every month. I've not been able to find any HX civics in my area
(North Alabama), apparently the dealers don't sell that many of them.
