Nice car mate , dad had one but too be honest he found the petrol consumption to be very poor, but to be fair it was his first car off this type, normally going for toyota corollas and such like, wonder how you / wife find the petrol consumption ??
neighbour off mine has a black four door version off the HRV and must admitt it really does look well smart, dads was a red two door, having driven his when he owned it must admitt it really was nice to drive.

My Grandad had one 
Watch out if it's CVT auto, as they judder when pulling away and slip excessively at motorway speeds - requires expensive gearbox work to fix.
Drive and handle nice though - like a big civic and a decent Pioneer radio as standard
(although no rear speaker...cheapskates 
)
