  • Best all around low priced car - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    So, love the car... except the interior, interior for this model just feels cheap all around from the visually unappealing "cock pit" dash to basic button layout for controls, and cloth on doors. Girlfriend just got 2010 mazda 3, its interior blows civics away, from tech to looks. Super fun to drive, even just around town, but really is not that fast which is good and keeps me out of trouble. Fuel is what u expect, but uses premium, if u care that much get a different car. Bang for your buck, cant beat it though, good looking, fun to drive, reliable, car has everything for a reasonable price... except interior, well I like the seats, they are comfy, I am also not a big guy though.

  • Fun, Fast, Invigorating - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    Lots of fun to drive. Youll hear people talk about the low torque, but theres plenty of power to bring you to 60mph very quickly. Fast, fun car, with Honda efficiency and build quality. Typical civic interior design leaves a bit to be desired on the luxury end, but you get what you pay for. Car is very capable on the road and when driving aggressively through corners and on the highway. The sound this car makes when driving, is something that truly must be heard first hand to fully appreciate. All this with real world MPG rating supposedly around 28-32. The car and all its components feel solid and high quality.

  • VIBRATIONS??? - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    I recently purchased this LX-S and when I test drove it, I experienced a mild vibration from the car at about 50 MPH. I asked the sales rep about it and he explained that flat spot on the tires may be to blame. This sounded logical and in his explanation I agreed with him that this could possibly work out with the tired being inflated and brought up to operation temp. However, now 1500 miles later, I still have a vibration at 50-60 MPH. This is most severe first thing in the A.M. when the vehicle is cold. I have the vehicle in the shop today for the issue today for the second time. I am being told now that there is a service bulletin for this.

  • Basic Transpo - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    My 99 Accord was finished at 155K and I needed a replacement fast. In this economic environment, I did not feel fiscally justified to get a higher end car. Honda offers very affordable leases (thank goodness for a weakening yen and high Honda residual value) that are unmatched in this class. The Accord is now too large so we downgraded to the Civic. Value for dollar is astounding, but it is still a basic cheapo transportation device. Interior materials are a preponderance of plastic. Trunk has no nooks and cranny space. Interior storage bins are smaller. All what one would expect at this price point. Ride and handling OK at best.

  • good car- but some minor issues - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    The biggest complaint I have about this car is that I spent extra money for the leather and it has not been very durable. I have several rips- and a big one in the drivers arm rest. I take VERY good care of my car- oil changes, all scheduled maintenance ect. Now that I have 115,000 miles, I notice some loss of power and hard shifting. I also recently had to replace a motor mount ($400!) I seem to go through brakes quickly. On the positive side, with some snow tires it does well in the snow and I am overall very happy with this being a daily driver. It also handles very well on the turnpike and gets decent MPG.

  • Fun ride - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    I just got this car last night and thus far in my opinion its pretty sick. I dont have money pouring out my ears, so I feel theres a lot of bang for your buck in this one. Corners great, quick acceleration. Love the nav in it, that really can pull the interior together. Had leather seats in my old car and they just got visibly scuffed up so I like this material, and it doesnt melt skin in the summer. Only had it for a day so I may be jumping the gun, but I love it up to this point. Its also not too fast which is good, it does keep you out of trouble. (maybe my favorite feature) I would certainly advise people to buy this car.

  • Love the EX - 2010 Honda Civic
    By -

    Ive had this car for over one week now and love it! The fun to drive factor is out of this world regarding the 5 speed. I test drove an automatic and it just does not compare to the do-it-yourself rev happy manual (6,800 RPM red line)! The way the manual interacts with the drive by wire system is phenomenal and the engine loves to sing the further you get on the RPM scale. Fit and finish are excellent. The digital MPH / analog RPM is most ascetically pleasing. Kudos to the standard sound system. Factory installed XM Radio was my only option. The grin still hasnt left my face, even in heavy traffic as the clutch is very light and the shift throws are close ratio.
