Low-Mileage Gem - Don't Be Afraid to be Picky!
I wouldn't recommend this car to all of my friends; it is a high-performance vehicle, and definitely not a family car. It's nimble, responsive, and a lot of fun to drive. After owning and driving "troop transports", it's nice to have a car that's just for me. I used CarFax's shipping option to find the perfect low-mileage vehicle that ticked off every requirement I had for my RX-8; shipping took a bit longer than expected, but the service afterward was perfect. Always check the blue book value and the CarFax reports before making your decision - and have your vehicle checked out by an independent mechanic immediately upon taking delivery. Take the list back to CarFax - once confirmed, Carfax repaired everything at no charge.
Pros
- Styling: Small and sleek - elegant and functional interior
- Power: Will get up and go with a quickness.
- Seat Comfort: Multi-user settings, heated leather seats.
Cons
- Fuel Economy: This car is not for anyone concerned with fuel efficiency.
Good build quality that's both fun and economical
For basic transportation this generation of Civic is intrinsically fun to drive. The handling is spirited and acceleration is lively, especially with the manual transmission. Visibility is somewhat compromised with the coupe; it has thick A-pillars that obstruct some angles while making turns and small rear windows. The base sound system is more than adequate and the control layout of the dash is very easy to use. Compared to other coupes of this price range the Civic has a more usable back seat, especially with head room. Civics are rather noisy (wind and tire noise) but you can't have everything. With safety, frugality, style, and fun, this little Civic is a good first car for any kid.
Pros

- Ride and Handling:

Cons
- Cabin Noise:
Solid deal, great price, leaves little room for improvement.
I have the hybrid model. I got about 38mpg in winter, and I'm getting about 34mpg in summer. This car combines great gas mileage with some more luxurious features (ie. leather seats, navigation, satellite radio and a sun roof.) Some of the things that I think need improvement are the headrests. Many vehicles today pitch the headrest forward so you're sort of forced into a slouching position. The rear view mirror for my height seems too low. I feel like if it were higher, closer to the roof it would create less of an obstruction through the windshield. Also, I wish the sun visor move more smoothly and allowed more freedom of placement. It pretty much snaps into either of two positions (ie. closed or flush to the windshield.)
Pros
- Fuel Economy: Awesome gas mileage.
- Safety: Got great reviews in the crash test.
- Technology and Entertainment: Has all of the bells and whistles I wanted.
Cons
- Seat Comfort: The headrest pitches forward and is awful. I don't know why manufacturers do this, but lots do it.
- Ride and Handling: There is a little lag compared to non-hybrid, but I felt this handled better than the Prius in a test drive. Also, when driving approx. 150mi./wk. I only have to refuel about once every 3 weeks.
- Cabin Noise: I do experience some cabin noise, but I'm told that I have super sensitive hearing.
