I just got the same car but in black, (yes I know I should consider buying a washing station now) however once its washed/waxed etc, it does beat all colors, i have owned almost all except that red wine one..mine is just 220 kms driven so the consumption is not so great, I'm hoping it would improve..I will be sticking with the honda oil as I have done so for the past 7 years, all the cars had very sound engines. the navgation is hardly used as i already know my way around but it comes in handy when my parents drive it as the like the rear view camera thing..I would very strongly recommend you change the stock tires as they are just useless, i switched to michellin's energy saver series and the ride has become immensely smooth..no noise at all! has any of guys had any experiences with the electric rear sun shade? i might just get the regular ones as the mistris just ruin the whole car once they start playing with..enjoy your ride and keep belted!
