2005 Honda Civic consumer reviews

Very reliable car, easy to fix with hundreds of how to videos, pretty simple to manage, good on gas, and cheap to own and enough room for passengers, and can be fun when you put your foot down.

I own this car, and I really love it, very reliable. I've replaced several parts of the engine, tires and battery. I'm selling it because I'm moving to the East Coast.

This car meets all the needs, good gas consumption and very reliable. Its small, and limited leg room but that is the price to pay for a small reliable vehicle that does not consume a lot of fuel.

This car has very low miles still running strong! is in very good condition, clean inside and out. it has bluetooth hands free capabilities. it has clean title. stereo, roomy, automatic transmission etc. this is the perfect car for everyone or anyone that wants to enjoy a small economical vehicle. it goes about 400miles in a full tank of gas.

I love this car. It was my first car, and it's been pretty good. I've done a bunch of modifications to it as it is, and I've enjoyed owning and driving it. I can whip it around everywhere and it can park almost anywhere. However, it's an econobox. It's nowhere near fast. Good gas mileage though, but it's not fast. Also, these cars have head gasket issues. The head gasket doesn't blow like normally expected, but instead hairline cracks will appear near the piston chambers. This allows the combustion gases to escape and go into the coolant system. From there, it will push the coolant out of your system and your car will overheat due to a lack of coolant. In spite of this, I've still daily driven my car with this issue for over a year. All in all, it's a good car and will do what you want it to do.

SECOND CIVIC I HAVE OWNED AND AS GOOD AS THIS ONE IS, I MISS MY 1994 CIVIC. THAT WAS THE BEST CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED AND MY 2005 IS ALMOST AS GOOD.

Fantastic car for the money - Had it for 155,000 miles and besides scheduled maintenance, has only required one major repair: the manifold+catalytic converter (they're combined) is apt to give out around 110-140,000 miles. Experienced it on two Civics (2002 & 2005) and several mechanics told me it was a common problem. Other than that, it's not fancy or luxurious in this day and age, but boy does it keep on chugging no matter what you throw at it!

I think the best thing about this vehicle is the quality. Its has a great price for the value. Dont get me wrong, it doesnt look the nicest, but it has great quality

I got the special edition of this car, which makes it stand out for other 'generic' Civics, and it has many other nice features that are convenient, like an auction input

Gas mileage is phenominal!!!! Rides like a sports car so don't expect a luxury car feel. It's so reliable and cost effective I'm gifting it to my granddaughter.
