No, sorry YOU ARE CORRECT. But he did say Honda. But to think of it,
I can't come up with a Honda at under 18MPG combined.
Probably another lie he told me. He couldn't find the jack, either.
And he said the 1.5 VVT-i engine designation stood for some fuel
metering device, and that the reason the gauges are in the middle of
the dash is so your line-of-sight is in line with the mirror.
The guy was an idiot, but I like the car. I don't need a salesperson anyway.
