Mines in the paint shop so I cant do an exact check for you. Off hand i d say it sounds about right. Tire size will affect the accuracy of your speedo & therefore your RPMS.

Are you running the recomended 205 55 15 tires ? If not, you should check at your local tire shop to see if your tires are the correct height. :)

sorry pops this is a true sport compact, sorry if its not a gas guzzling v8 or diesel chugging around at 1.5k on the freeway, this is a high revving motor, anything below that for this motor is un-natural
