Care-free and Reliable

This was the most care-free and reliable car we ever owned. It was surprisingly sporty and spry to drive too. Let's not kid ourselves, it's no performance machine. It is a car that provides great value for the money though. I highly recommend this car.

The Honda holds up to its name.

The car maintains great gas mileage while having one of the best know reliability rates among cars to this day.

Very reliable car

This car has been taking me hundreds of miles each week for years. I have never had a problem with it and it drives great. The only complaint I have is that the seat is made for someone around 6 feet tall and I am 5 feet 4 inches so I put a cushion on the seat to raise me up so that I fit the car better and I can also see better. But overall, a really nice, reliable car.

Very reliable car

I use this car on my daily commute and for long trips. It's a very smooth ride and hasn't had any major issues. I love that the radio and a/c are angled toward the driver. The Econ button is a great feature and allows me to save gas.

Great Gas Mileage

I wish it had a compass and other interior options. I do like how great the gas mileage is. We travel to WA from CO and the seats are stiff.

Comfortable comuter car

After driving a Pontiac, KIA this Honda Civic is a breath of fresh air! We test drove the Toyota Corolla and the Honda Civic and by far the Honda Civic was the best in gas , get up and go, comfort, as I commute far. I like the way it gets 35 to 40 miles a gal, did I tell you it is comfortable leather seats no blind spots, easy to read on dash this car stylish.

My favorite car

I was gifted the 2012 Civic in college and started driving it three years ago and love it! I love how small it is but still have a big trunk and it drive so smooth! Would recommend it to anyone!
