All my dealer can tell me is that mine is "in transit" and will hopefully be here by next week.

I test drove one a couple of hours ago.

It is a pretty good cross between a civic and a fit, I got 50mpg and have no idea how warm it was, but it was a short test drive in 40 F weather.

The paddle shifters are pretty fun, although don't seem to help with mileage much (although there are 7 ratios selectable).

We just got our first 3 on the lot...and I must say I am pretty impressed.

Materials are on par with what you would come to expect from Honda, it "gets up and Goes" as well as any Fit - except you have more room in width and length than the Fit.

We have one we have designated as a long term demo...to see just how well the MPG's stack up to different drivers and conditions over a long term test.

The ECON system seems to be pretty usefull...and will help those not used to hybrid vehicles in training them how to get good MPG's rather than just expecting them.

It's coming to northern Illinois, but my dealer couldn't even tell me where in the country it was.

Otherwise...maybe they are getting it from another dealer elsewhere...or in another state.

I guess mine isn't going to be here anytime soon. Schaumburg Honda is nearby, but not my dealer.
