Overview & Reviews

Since its launch in 1973, the Honda Civic has been one of the most popular compact cars sold in America. Its success can be attributed in large part to its consistently high level of quality inside and out and its long-standing reputation for reliability and low running costs. Impressive fuel economy and engaging performance have also played a role in making the Civic a top choice for many Americans.

The competition has largely caught up with Honda, though, and there are now many excellent small cars vying for your attention. Still, we continue to recommend the Civic due to its ergonomic interior layout, wide range of models and high resale value. For small-car shoppers in search of a solid used vehicle, the Honda Civic is certainly a smart choice, as its long production run and many variants make it easy to find what you want.

  Give and take - 2017 Honda Civic
  By Vivi Nguyen - March 2 - 5:50 am

  I only driven the twice since I bought the car(1 wk). When I saw the car able to open the trunk from inside the car, I was happy. Right now, I am very disappointed because I found out I couldnt open the trunk with the key! So inconvenient!

  Will run Forever. - 1991 Honda Civic
  By Ben Frink - March 1 - 10:39 pm

  Have had this car for years and its still in good shape. With only a few major repairs (brakes, exhaust) it hasnt missed a beat and it gets great gas mileage too. Coming on 160k miles now and it looks like Ill be able to keep this for years to come.

  Forget the Jones - 1996 Honda Civic
  By Fronteeer - February 27 - 7:24 am

  Why did they stop making cars like this? Underpowered fuel-sippers with lots of passenger and trunk space. Who cares if you cant take off fast? Im getting 38mpg. This Honda is 13 years old and its better than any car Ive ever owned. Sure, its got a few dings and scratches, and theres a little surface rust on the fenders, but thats to be expected when salt is sprayed on the roads all winter. The transmissions still tight and smooth, everything works, and its the most reliable vehicle in my driveway. On a few occasions this winter its been used to jumpstart two much newer vehicles on really cold mornings. This is definitely not my last Honda. It has 125,000 miles on it and runs great.

  Good deal to be had. - 2004 Honda Civic
  By Bill R - February 27 - 2:00 am

  Find this baby for under 13k and you have a good deal. Great milage, lots of pep. Kind of plain on the body with sporty rear lights and interior. Ill put 250-300k on this one. Its a commute car for me. And I will probably let my daughter drive it in about three years.
