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.

  If MPG Is What You Want ... - 2008 Honda Civic
  By mrmark99 - May 2 - 4:40 am

  Purchased on 12/31/07 in time to still get the $2,300 tax credit. I drive a lot of miles (25,000 a year), so gas mileage was my #1 concern. I have 11,579 miles on the car now and it has been fabulous. My gas mileage was in the 40-43 range for the first two to three months due in large part to breaking in the car as well as the Illinois winter I was driving in. Since then my gas mileage has gotten better and better as the weather warmed up and the car began to get broken in. My last 7 tanks of gas have gotten me 51, 50, 51, 50, 53, 52 and 51 MPG! I drive on the interstates with the cruise set at 65 mph and I neither accelerate nor brake hard in the city in an effort to maximize my MPG.

  So far, so good - 2008 Honda Civic
  By cwhyte - April 28 - 7:40 pm

  First year with leather in a Civic and I jumped at it. Actually, I wanted an inexpensive car with good mileage, but nice enough that I would be satisfied with driving it 85 miles daily. Ive only had it a week, but it has been fun and comfortable to drive and my first tank of gas got 34mpg!

  Great! - 2008 Honda Civic
  By N.A. - April 12 - 9:53 am

  After extensive research (a must being an engineer) and looking and test driving multiple cars, I settled on this model. It gives you all the extras you want with a reasonable price. The design is amazing, and fun to drive. I owned a 99 Honda EX Coupe and it was noisy on the highway. This one, however, it was really quiet. Inside is very spacious and comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

  Best Purchase Ever - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Jenna - April 11 - 10:50 pm

  This car was the best investment I have ever made. I am a 19 year old, full time worker and college student, so this was a big choice for me to make, but Im glad I did. Little bit of a blind spot which I knew about before I made the purchase (its not that bad). People are so impressed with the interior from the gauges all the way to the space and comfort. I have no regrets. I always look at my car and smile, it really is a perfect car for me.

  Great value for your money - 2008 Honda Civic
  By tsheata - March 18 - 11:36 am

  I looked at purchasing the Ford Fusion, Ford Focus, Honda Civic, and Honda Accord. The civic is great to drive around town and fits nicely in spots that larger models cannot fit. The gas mileage is great and it is very responsive and sporty. Furthermore, the resale value is great on these vehicles. Very happy with the civic.

  Nice change - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Wayne - March 12 - 8:00 pm

  Purchased first Honda car after years of owning Corollas. Was looking for a four door with more power, and great gas mileage. Purchased the car due to its many performance, safety features and its low price. I am satisfied with the vehicles performance, and have been getting 30 mpg. I could use more room in the front seat, but I am 63 250 lbs. Car has many blind spots. Overall, it seems to be a solid car, nice combination of ride/ handling. Easily accelerates to highway speeds. Peace of mind with the standard side curtain air bags. The interior dash is different but a nice change.

  2008 Honda Civic EX 4-Dr. 5M - 2008 Honda Civic
  By MATT - February 28 - 3:03 pm

  I drive an 08 black Civic EX 5M. All in all this vehicle is very fun to drive. I love the shift, very easy compared to my previous manual vehicles. I seriously average between 34-38 mpg per fill up. No joke. I can get average 430-470 miles per tank and its not even a hybrid. Mileage has a lot to do with owners driving. I have tons of fun on side streets with my car, but keep the highway driving around 60, and that shows about 40 mpg on the highway. With my crazy driving on side streets, it averages to 35 mpg usually. Great car for MPG!

  Awesome - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Rich - February 19 - 7:53 pm

  I purchased this car 600 miles ago. The ride is a little tight but smooth. It handles great. The seats are a perfect fit. Im 6 and I fit very well in this car. I am a first time buyer, but its the 4th car Ive had. I had an old 93 civic and they changed up a lot on this vehicle. 300 miles to a tank isnt bad.

  Still the ONE. - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Matt Landers - February 13 - 3:50 am

  With 5,500 miles on this car in a little over 2 months. No complaints. Gas mileage for mixed driving is around 30 MPG. Not too bad. Exclusive HWY driving yields between 37-40 MPG. Even better. Overall a good car and thus far would recommend this model to a friend. Ill write back in a few months with more updates.
