2005 Honda Civic consumer reviews

Got this great little car with 117,000 miles on it. It runs great. It has manuel, not automatic transmission and feels sporty.

The Honda Civic is a fantastic car for it's price. Aside from making the 90,000 mile purchase of a timing belt, I never put more money into this car aside from oil changes and gas. Gas mileage on this car was amazing. Smooth, quiet ride. I had a basic model and only sold this car at 120,000 miles because I came to a point where I was ready to upgrade.

This is the 4th Honda car I bought and the 2nd Civic I've owned. Purchased an EX in 2009 with just shy of 75k and still going strong just over 100k. While it may be fun and economical to drive, the heating and cooling occasionally work intermittently. Given the online forums, it looks like it might be a common occurence. Aside from that, the car has been great and served me well. I considered the 2006 and after redesigns but don't like what they did. With the reliability, features and economy of the car, this may be the best civic ever.

This car gets about 40mpg (37.5-43.8) and runs great. Other than replacing the battery and windshield wipers, I haven't had any problems with it. It would be nice to have more space for cup holders.

My 2005 Civic LX is great, the fuel mileage is unbelievably good! The car runs well and has given me very little trouble. But there are a few things I really don't like about it. First: it's loud. The car is not well insulated and really has alot of road noise. Second: the heater sux! (yes I have replaced thermostat and had heater looked at by dealer). The heater is simply not adequate if you live in a cold climate! When I talked to dealer about this, they said "yeah, we hear that alot". How ridiculous that to save a few bucks per car Honda skimps on the heater. And that's the type of thing you most likely wouldn't know when you test drive a car. Third: it's a little hard to start in sub zero weather. But everything else is so good on this car, it's hard not to like it. And it's a great value for $15k! I would buy it again but I will make SURE my next car has an adequate heater.

Had a 2005 Civic EX SE Cpe. that I bought new. Traded it in 2008 because I needed something larger. I have regretted getting rid of it every day since! Admittedly, it is a small car, but it is so fun to drive (esp. w/ a 5spd) because it's quick and nimble. Plus it is quite a little fuel-sipper!! If they're maintained, these cars will run virtually forever. If maintained, at 100K miles, these cars are just getting broken in. Needless to say, I don't need the bigger car anymore so I'm searching for another EX SE Cpe. WITH a 5spd. I don't care if I'm going 'backwards' 6 years. I want what I want!

I love this 2005 Honda Civic Si hatchback only wish they still made them. You cannot go wrong owning a Honda. Also a car that has been in the desert.

too high for the value. its not even fully loaded. no sunroof, power seats, tints, and more. i would rate it a $8850, if you ask me.

vary high price if you compare it with other cars I can save half of this price + tax and spend it in another plece

My 2005 Honda Civic 5 speed manual is a great car to own and drive. When I bought it I wanted a car that was reliable, easy to maintain, and fuel efficient. This car suits me to a T. It's attractive and comfortable, but it's also quick and responsive when you need it to be. Based on my experience with this car I will definitely buy another Honda in the future.
