Car looks really good, but unfortunately due to the crap weather I can't get out to take a pic and post it.

My vote for most useful feature to date is the retracting wing mirrors - without it I wouldn't be able to get the car in the garage!! That's gonna be a right pain and I think we should start a sweep on the date when my 'bust wing mirror' post appears!!

Thought I'd done my HW and the width stats on my old Stilo were 1,756 mm and the Civic 1,765. A difference of less than 1cm surely can make that much difference, I thought. I think I know where I must have cocked up. I assumed that width was measured from wing mirror tip to wing mirror tip - but I don't think it can be. Anybody out there know for sure how width is measured?

Honda quotes 2 widths the 1765 is without mirrors, with the mirrors its over 2m (2046mm to be exact!!)
