Civic GX

I know it's not really new (at least not in CA) but it's new to me! A natural gas powered Civic that you fuel up at home... interesting.

Yeah they've been around since 96 or 97 I believe. They are still only available for fleet sales tho.

According to Honda they're being released now for consumers in CA. There are even natural gas filling stations appearing

yup...out in cali...u have the cash for it its urs...

wtf is the difference between natural gas and unleaded?

[NutBucket]

Natural gas burns MUCH cleaner.

Here in Cali if you buy one for your house you can get a home refilling station installed so it can refill itself overnight. Pretty cool deal considering how much cheaper nat. gas is.

i guess u can say it burns cleaner...the correct way of really saying it is the gas that come sout is pure oxygen and water drips those two are ur excess waste isntead of carbon monoxide

100HP and 98 ft. lbs of torque? With a 12.5:1 compression ratio??! Damn... good thing it's light and has that CVT tranny...


Also found an error in Honda's spec sheet. It says the alternator is rated for 70 amp-hours when it should just be 70A.
