I was going to say that seemed kinda heavy for a Civic, my 2012 Chrysler 200 Touring weights just under 3600lbs (the Limited and S are over 3600lbs), has 6 airbags, the larger, heavier, and much more power 283hp flex fuel V-6 backed by a 6 speed auto transaxle that I think might be a distant relative of the 60's Torqueflite 3 speeds, yet has given me upwards of 25mpg on E85, nearly 30mpg on 91 octane premium on the interstates, is capable of 14's in the quarter mile on either fuel. In day to day use in Suburban Chicago can range from a low of 14mpg (on E85 while sitting in traffic and seeing lots of cold start drive-thru time mixed with some hard acceleration pulls ) to a max 21mpg on regular (lots of easy, hypermile type driving at night with low traffic)
Even my 1998 Jeep Cherokee shouldn't even weigh as much as my 200, probably close in weight to the a fore mentioned Cornet, even though it is a 4wd vehicle with a 700lbs engine up front over it's live front axle and has 2 airbags up front.
