Yes and no. I took no less then 8 test drives over the past 2 years before I purchased my Civic last month. That included a 70mph stretch of highway around 10 miles long so I could see exactly how it handled and performed at highway speeds. If your dealership woudn't have allowed this, I woulda walked right out.
The gas mileage is open for debate, if you kept slamming the gas pedal expecting a Si boost in power, no wonder your gas mileage was terrible.
