Overview & Reviews

A new Mugen Si trim level debuts for the 2008 Honda Civic sedan. It's similar to the regular Si sedan but comes with more aggressive suspension tuning, special wheels and exterior body enhancements. The only other change for the Civic line this year is the new availability of leather seating for the new EX-L trim level.

• Engine lineup that offers both fuel-efficiency and performance, roomy and refined interior, high crash test scores, available as a sedan or coupe.

• Controversial gauge cluster design, slow acceleration times of Hybrid and GX models.

  Its a overpriced matchbox toy - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Choopacabra - August 30 - 8:40 am

  The navigation is a waste of money, Get a tomtom. Its noisy, slow, and fragile. Tires wont last, wheel bearings are cheap, and its leather heated seats are pathetic. The 350 watt stereo just plain blows. I regret buying this car and I will be trading it in as soon as its warranty service is complete.

  40K Miles Review - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Mark Tepper - August 22 - 7:43 am

  The Honda Civic is a safe bet but gets real old real quickly. I have had no problems with it so far but the car is simply boring.

  Overall satisfied with the purchase of my 2008 Civic LX. Got four quotes from the dealers using edmunds.com. The price range varied about $1000 from the lowest to highest. Obviously I went with the lowest quote and closest dealer to my home. Happy with the overall quality, style and price.

  EX-L 2008 So far, so good... - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Kevman - June 23 - 2:06 pm

  Got my EX-L 2 weeks ago. First tank of gas highway driving 34MPG. Very happy with that. Seat not the most comfortable, but OK. Needs Lumbar support. Pickup not too good, but to be expected. Alot of fun to drive. Should have auto-dimming mirror on EX-L model.

  AC Condenser Problem - 2008 Honda Civic
  By JCromer - June 20 - 11:03 am

  We have driven our new 2008 civic only 3700 miles. We love the car and great gas mileage and have always thought highly of Honda. This has now changed as do to the design flaw to protect the AC condenser. Small rocks on the road will damage the condenser and it is on covered under warranty.

  Bringing Sport To Small - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Erich - June 10 - 3:26 pm

  Ive had mine for almost 3 months now and I still shake my head in disbelief when I look at it. Such aggressive styling on a car this size is rare and in this case very well done. The view of the road is appreciated, but the blind spots are troubling, but I am coming from a Maxima with windows all around and if you actually look and not just rely on mirrors then its fine. I have noticed the occasional rough shift in the transmission and a little hesitation/skipping at idle, but im sure its nothing a quick visit to the dealer wont fix. Im also not a big fan of the fact the rear entry effects the front seat position every time some gets in and out of the back seat.

  Love at first sight - 2008 Honda Civic
  By FD - May 28 - 9:46 pm

  Ive only had my Honda LX for 2 weeks. The moment I sat down in it and put my hand on the 5 speed shifter I fell in love. On my first trip I got 37 mpg and since I have gotten 44 and 45 mpg. I drive conservatively about 60 -65 mph. I have always bought Toyota but couldnt find a 5 speed in my color and thought Id look at the competition. Glad I did. Beautiful car. It came with a slight problem with the am radio reception but Im getting that repaired at the dealer. Dont drive the civic five speed or you wont be able to turn it loose. I had a Toyota Supra and this car is just as much fun to drive and I find myself looking for an excuse to drive it.

  Civic exceeds my expectations! - 2008 Honda Civic
  By da_doo_dah_man - May 19 - 9:00 am

  I traded in my Jeep Grand Cherokee for a more gas sufficient car. I was considering getting the Hybrid Civic, but after seeing how the hybrid engine sounded with 3 people inside I decided to go with the Civic LX. I am very happy with the purchase. The LX exceeds my expectations in every way. The only thing that I feel bad about the whole deal is trading in and leaving the old car behind, after so many years together it seems like such a cheap way to go out.
