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.

  Amazing - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Bucfan47 - February 27 - 10:36 pm

  I have only 400 miles so far, but cant be any happier. This is my 9th Honda since 1988, and this car is amazing. The style, gas mileage, functionality. I traded a 201 Civic EX with 228,000 miles. What a difference

  Fun and Great Value - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Laura - February 23 - 11:30 am

  I am very particular about cars and this Civic exceeds my expectations. I opted for the EX L with a manual transmission and absolutely love it. Interior is very nice especially compared to the other cars Ive owned and the ones I test drove before purchasing this one. Stereo has a nice sound, seats are super comfortable-love the wrap around feature. Easy for me to get in and out of the car. Like the button that remotely pops trunk. Manual transmission is smooth. Steering is nice and easy. Handles corners well. Fold down rear seats are great. For the price, this is an excellent car and value. If you want BMW features then you will have to pay a BMW price.

  Just what I was looking for - 2008 Honda Civic
  By 50MPG - February 14 - 11:13 am

  This is a great highway cruiser - if you travel long distances, this is a great way to get there cheaply. 43 mpg on the 1st fill-up, I expect more when it breaks in completely. Rented a Prius (got 44 mpg with it) and shopped one as well - the Civic stickers for less, Honda is dealing on the sticker price, and you still get $1050 in cash back from the Feds - whats not to like? The Prius is a nice car, this is less expensive and equally as nice. I like the "normal" Civic look as opposed to the unique design of the Prius. The Prius has a bit more room inside, and I like the fold down back seats and rear space. The Honda can carry 850 lbs (pass + cargo) the Prius 800 lbs.

  Civic Duty - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Radar - February 8 - 10:03 pm

  Leather and Navigation System are great additions. Comfort and ride are smooth and much quieter that the 2001 Honda Civic EX. Extremely pleased with the mileage out of the gate, 29 combined city/highway, 38 highway. Would rate straight 10s across the board but that would be unfair given the car been in the garage less than 30 days. Fun to drive, spouse loves it to. Good balance of features and costs.

  Good so far - 2008 Honda Civic
  By mnms_79 - January 20 - 1:13 am

  I have 12K miles and so far other than rough shifting during low speeds and vibration when idle and AC on, I have no other complaints. Of course I dont mistreat my car so perhaps I dont see any problems... so far. :-) Honda civic overall is a reliable and fuel efficient car.

  Do your Civic duty - in a Hybrid - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Bryan C - January 10 - 7:26 am

  I just went one year in my Hybrid - 18,006 miles. My low mpg has been 41 and highest was an interstate drive from Richmond to Miami at 56.4 mpg for the trip. Terms like performance and fun differ with this car. I have owned Audis before this and still keep a Miata in the garage. They are the traditional performance models. The Hybrid ranks high in performance for how it performs its mission - transporting me around in relative comfort with extremely good mileage. The car is slow to accelerate but if you adjust your driving habits (I have) the reward is peak mpg. I still get to my destination but I do not have to pass other cars or arrive first.

  Great On Gas - 2008 Honda Civic
  By UNC Medic - December 25 - 5:10 am

  I got the Civic after several co- workers talked about how much they loved theirs. I went from a crown vic w/p71 package to this and love it. Much better on gas first tank had 39 mpg now after 3 tanks avg 35 mpg all highway @80 mph. Its comfortable considering I am a big guy (6,2) and not exactly small. LOL. The interior is great love the leather seats I bypassed the ex-l w/navi for reg ex-l and not sorry. The ride is fine but loud on certain types of pavement (hwy) anyway. Would highly recommend one. Going one way to work @57 miles its comfortable and dear I say sporty. Head room is great even with the sunroof.

  2008 Civic - 2008 Honda Civic
  By TXMatt - December 23 - 2:16 pm

  Great car, average 31 mpg. The dealer helped me choose a LX and have leather installed, saved several thousand over the EX-L, and got exactly what I wanted.

  2008 Civic EX-L Nav - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Cloud - December 19 - 4:56 pm

  There are a few things I would like to see better on this car, One is the noise level of the road is load, Also the Sound System is one of the worst I have ever heard, Also No Bluetooth, What is with that? I will be changing Speakers ASAP, and put Dyno matt down under the Carpet! This will help a lot! Overall I like the car.
