Summary:
The Civic’s that are made in Canada has very poor fit and finish. The hood on the left and right fender would not be even, other panels on the car would be off on each side and also the bumper in the back. If they can't even make that right, just imagine the engine and the transmission components. “Honda owner check your civics and you would be able to tell the difference on the body panels are not even on the right and left sides of the car”. I asked the dealer sales people and their replied “they don’t know why”.


However the civic hybrids are made very well, those are made in Japan.

Summary:
I had a 1999 Civic that had over 170,000 miles on it. It ran great around town but had trouble with the big hills that's why I decided to get a new car. While shopping I had to decided on a few different cars but in the end the Civic was the best choice for me. I bought a Blue 4 door Civic brand new. It has been a great car! I get around 27 mpg in the city an close to 35 on the highway. It accomodates myself (thin 5 foot something frame) and also my fiance (a larger 6 foot something frame) with ease. The seat pumps up and down and the steering wheel telescopes out. Both features make it easy for anyone to drive. I highly recommend the Civic to anyone. It is a reliable car that will run forever (like my 99 170,000 mile baby!) They are very affordable and extremely safe with one of the highest saftey ratings of any car in it's class. They are great cars!

2008 Civic

Strengths:
Reliability, fit and finish. Engine power has dramatically improved.

Weaknesses:
Let room on the driver side is a little narrow. E-Brake sticks into drivers leg. Other than that not too much in the short-comings.

Summary:
This is a outstanding car. Fit and finish are exacting and flawless. Judging from 3 previous Honda reliability is incredible. I won't hesitate to recommend Honda to anyone.

Strengths:
MPG, Reliable, bang for buck, Price... Price... Quality of material, comfort on long trips, handling, That V-tec Noise...

Weaknesses:
Ebrake, blindspots... Im thinking...

Summary:
A wonderful fun automobile without wrecking your wallet. I went from an 06 sti to this, the sti was garbage, in 20k it had to be replaced as it was no longer reliable. Just closing the door of the civic would tell you how well it is built. Its quick without being unbarable to handle as a daily driver. The seats are comfortable on long trips, im 6'2" tall, the steering is tight and very precise. Smaller drivers may not like the heads up display, it takes some getting used to, as they may have difficulty seeing, there are a few large blind spots. The E-Brake is in a terrible place. But for the MPG and the performance the car is worth every penny. It has the best manual transmission i have ever driven. I have never owned a manual, and been driving about 13 years now. I average about 36mpg, but i also keep my foot out of the vtec, which is hard since it is my favorite song, sounds so mean...
