Owner Reviews
Perfect to own as a first car
Fuel efficient. Will really save you money in the long run. Never had engine problems. I do have issues with wheel alignment from time to time. The battery was normal as usual- it did die on me one time in which AAA came and changed it on the spot for around $100. This car is decent in snow because it's front wheel drive, however you should probably install Blizzaks or Yokohamas during the winter for better traction. The cabin is a little noisier compared to other cars but this is expected. This car really holds up against the test of time. I also appreciate the 4 doors and the practicality of the civic. I realized early how practical the Civic is. I think the Honda Civic is best suited for new drivers ages 16-23. I must admit there are some performance issues. Other than that, I think that the Civic is a tremendous car, especially if it's your first. It will keep you humble, will get you where you need to be and you won't ever have to worry about it. If things go wrong, you have the peace of mind knowing that parts are cheap. If you get a ding, it doesn't really matter since I hate to say this but it's a civic. I mean that in the most respectable way possible and you really do get that peace of mind when you're working or studying. You won't constantly be wondering if anyone is trying to steal or key your car or anything. Overall 5/5 car
Good car, excellent gas mileage, loud anti theft alarm, spacious trunk.
This car is very good on gas mileage, it is very reliable. We bought it used for $10k with 60k miles on it. I don't really like the color, but it was the only one they had. It drives very smooth, but pulling out of a parking spot in reverse there are some blind spots. It is very comfortable with a lot of space throughout. I have also been put in the trunk and let me tell you there is space for two of me to fit comfortably laying down in the trunk. The car holds up pretty well, it is 8 years old and still looks brand new. The only problem that occurred was when I was sitting in the car (off) with the doors locked for a couple hours and I got too hot so I started the car to try to turn on the ac, and the alarm went off and did not stop for 10 minutes straight no matter what I did. By the time I found the section about the anti theft lock in the manual it turned off and to this day I do not know what to do if I ever have to deal with that again.
The good brake pedal installment is one of the major reasons we bought the car.
Some of the problems in the vehicle include: the black leather seats, since my state is kind of near earth's equator, it is gets cooked up in the car, fast. It is small space, I can barely stretch my legs in the front and back seats, and the manual seat adjusters, very inconvenient to do when driving compared to electronic switchers. As for performance, for some reason, whenever I am on a hill, when I let go of the break, it'll backup, very scary. However, I like how when I am driving, it feels quite smooth and I don't suffer from headaches, same goes with the passengers. Well, due to the leather seats, I guess comfort level is 8/10 while the features such as radio, convenience in placement of buttons for that is 9/10, but it would have better if it provided functions to connect Bluetooth with.
