ps. why do you want one? the fuel is more expensive, less available,
and has a lower calorific value.

Thanks for your responses!

I have international experience with manual transmission, and a year's
experience with CNG,
so Andy & Carol I know I want manual, and Art, JXStern and Jim Beam I
know I don't want CNG (=natural gas =Civic GX food)
CNG is too inconvenient to find -- I have to spend a lot of time
driving out of my way to get it.

I have driven with LPG (=LP Gas =autogas) in Europe and wonder, Jim
Beam, how you find it more expensive.
I have understood it to be better for the wallet as well as for the
environment.

Maybe worldlpgas.com can give me an idea when/where such a car will be
available here in the US, or if you find anything, please do post me!

Thanks again for your time!

As far as I can tell, Honda does not make a LPG propelled vehicle
(production). At least for the US market.

And the GX does not come in a manual.

I am kind of leary of driving any vehicle with an explosive pressurized
tank, though. Just my own thing, I guess...
