Well, they are well screwed together, they hold onto their value well and are undoubtedly reliable. Not desperately keen on the look of the new one though, from behind they look awful, i'd be tempted to go for the old Type R, quality motor and quick with it.

A lot of work has gone into improvements for the new model Civic and the styling is very good. The guys in Swindon do put a lot of effort into ensuring that every car is manufactured and checked to the highest standards. You could do a lot worse than the new Civic and they do drive well.
Try a test drive, it will probably make up your mind for you.
Things to look out for are mainly price and what deals you can get compared with the other makes. As with all Japanese cars the seats can feel a bit hard on a long drive, depends on your preferences. Look out for the new Type R in January!

The Civic is a very nice car and it looks great too. Test drive a new 2007 Nissan Sentra, Hyundai Elantra, and Toyota Corolla to get a good perspective. I did and ended up with a Sentra, but you can't go wrong with a Civic.

Hello. I would tell you that you don't go wrong with Honda. That's why they are expensive. I own a Honda and you can tell the difference if you try same class cars of other makes. Besides that Honda gives a ridiculously amount of miles per gallon. My Honda Civic 2002 gives me between 350 and 400 miles each tank. the tank holds 13.1 gallons, but i add only 11 everytime i go to the gas station. Do the math.
Recently there was a first page (huge) article in the San Diego newspaper about why american cars suck (not all american cars are bad, but...). The article explained detailed the fact that american cars are usually cheap because they tend to use cheap materials. If yuo buy a Honda, give it the maintenance it needs. It'll last forever.
You are welcome.

I don't own one but I sell them and I think they are really great cars. I'm seriously considering purchasing one myself. They get great gas mileage 30 mpg city and 40 highway, even more if you go with the Hybrid. I like the previous generations exterior better but the interior is much improved. Honda engineers moved the entire cabin forward which creates much more space in the interior. For a compact car, the sedan has lots of legroom in the back. The unique two tier dashboard is really convenient for drivers today who are increasingly distracted by phones, children, other motorists etc. It has all the information you need most on top, right in your line of vision and secondary information on a lower tier. As far as safety, it comes standard with side curtain airbags as well as the front and front side airbags on all trim levels. Civics competitors don't offer that. It rated 5 stars in crash tests. So overall its a great car especially as a second vehicle for a family or a first car for a teenager or young adult w/o kids.

I have one! My last car was a peugeot 307 hdi which needed a engine rebuild at 8000 miles, due to a faulty injector system.
I traded it straight away for the new civic and havn't looked back.
The only problem i have is that i catch my leg on the dash when i get in, as it seems to sort of jut out a bit!
Other than that. It's the best we have had !

The are nice reliable cars, but there are other brands you can look at like the Toyota Corolla, Subaru Impreza are reliable and dependable all hold a good resale value. Honda civic and Subaru Impreza have great safety.
Stay away from Kia or Suzuki.

Honda's do very last a lengthy time period, yet i definately imagine you may get one with decrease miles. Has the timing belt been replaced? (with that mileage it likely could were replaced 2 cases already...and soon waiting for its third time because it may nicely get replaced each and every 60k or 5 years in a Civic) Oil adjustments are tremendous, yet thats not the biggest ingredient you want to seek for. even as replaced into the most suitable time transmission fluid replaced into replaced? even as replaced into the most suitable time it had spark plugs replaced? Has it ever been in an twist of destiny? Does it look like its been used to race round on the streets? A automobile searching in solid condition doesn't recommend something. i purchased my Honda Prelude and it regarded ideal. purely a minor blemish on the rear bumper, and the engine ran ideal after I were given it. yet i quickly realized that it had really purely been saved up on oil adjustments, as each and every thing else purely fell aside after I were given it. Transmission, spark plugs, timing belt, all that. Its value me more effective than i purchased it for to have all of it fastened. So imagine about that to boot. you're 16...you want a Honda...thats a very good determination, yet go searching formerly you purchase one, do not purely purchase it because at the starting up impressions its "solid" to you. Do study on it, get a carfax and ask what's been done on it. (Reciepts as information are continually solid too)

buying the car brand new from the dealer is not worth it because they charge you too much. maybe if you get a good deal in the streets but then again you never know whats wrong with it. i think the civic is a dependable car that gets good milage i dont think the looks are worth that much though. i would recommand an older civic there good cars and it will cost you way cheaper than a brand new one.
