  Love my Civic - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Hondamom - May 27 - 4:46 pm

  We bought our Honda EX new during hottest part of summer, and took it on vacation. Very roomy, 40mpg on highway, about 23 in town (very hilly where we live). Air conditioner, heater are fantastic. Is garaged, but even sitting outside in subzero temp days after getting off work, starts great! The car got around on snow and ice fine! Only thing Id rather have is a higher bumper in front, Ive scraped the bottom a few times pulling too close to a curb while diagonal parking, and on ice berms when slushy roads refroze. And backing out of diagonal parking spot when next to a long pickup truck can be tricky. But other than that, LOVE IT!!! Vacationed with 2 teenage boys in backseat, enough leg room.

  Simply sweet - 2008 Honda Civic
  By John16 - May 25 - 3:03 am

  This is my 8th Honda, and couldnt be happier. I love everything about this car. Looks, gas mileage, reliability, too much to type. If youre thinking of a car that gives you great gas mileage, fun to drive, reliability, this is a must see.

  Car Stinks - 2008 Honda Civic
  By mark primrose - May 23 - 9:56 pm

  This is my first and last Honda I will ever buy, I have had nothing but problems with the car from day one. Headlights fell out, interior is falling apart, windows have broke, power window motors went out, transmission is going out, had the cheapest tires money could buy on the car when purchased. Heater vent went bad, radio controls are barely working, the car is horrible, bought it for its good mileage and reliability. Havent encountered either one.

  Wonderful car - 2008 Honda Civic
  By ajprn - May 12 - 10:33 pm

  Ive had my civic sedan ex for a month and still look for excuses to go take a ride. Its comfortable and fun to drive. I use the cruise control a lot to maintain speed at economy limits but today when driving got preoccupied and when I looked at that great digital speedometer realized I was over 80 and the car felt as solid as it does at 25. Only complaint is that the radio seems weak, otherwise an all around great ride.

  Its a Great Car! - 2008 Honda Civic
  By RBAILEY57 - April 18 - 6:53 am

  I love everything about my Civic, the styling, the fuel economy, the handling, the performance, and it is very quiet and comfortable for its size. Best of all is its quality, though. From the fit and finish to the feel of its switches, this car oozes quality. Having driven Japanese cars for 20 years, I think Im hard to impress, too. This is my first Honda, but it wont be my last.

  A good decision - 2008 Honda Civic
  By chasda - April 13 - 3:10 am

  I recently traded in my 2005 Acura TL for a 2008 Honda Civic EX-L. I know, why would you do that? Well, I drive about 30K a year,my TL had 60K miles and it was time to either keep it till death or trade. I could have got another TL or similar car, but the premium gas and the mileage were starting to hurt. So I went hunting for something simpler and more economical. I considered a hybrid, but the numbers just dont work. The Civic is a good choice. It is peppy and fun to drive, it has everything you need. Its comfortable and very economical. Im averaging 31+ mpg, Ive had it 3 weeks and have over 1700 miles already. I added the leather, I think it brings the car to the next level.

  Glad I bought it! - 2008 Honda Civic
  By ggrec1 - March 23 - 2:06 pm

  I really like this car. Im 6 tall and the seat & steering wheel adjust perfectly. The seat is comfortable and the 2 tiered dash is cool. I can see all the instruments perfectly. The shifter is smooth and the position and movement are just right. I owned a Pathfinder and to me the visibility is great. You cant see the hood while you are driving but it is so short it doesnt really matter. Also has a nice amount of power for a fuel efficient car. I definitely recommend it!

  Expected Better Gas Mileage - 2008 Honda Civic
  By JVM - March 18 - 11:03 pm

  I absolutely love the way the car handles. It feels like a sports car. At first glance, I did not like the new dash, however, it really grows on you. The only item I was disappointed in was fuel mileage. I was expecting at least 30 to 31 mpg in city/highway driving, but I am only averaging 27/28 mpg. I do drive for fuel economy; so hopefully when the car is broken in more, the mileage will improve.

  Honda Coupe 2008 - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Linda - March 17 - 7:36 am

  Car is very sporty & accelerates & handles quite smoothly. Bucket seats mold to you & are quite comfortable. A power seat would be desirable. Trunk is roomy with fold down seats adding to space. I like the speedometer out in front by windshield so you dont have to look down. Center console armrest slides forward (nice feature) but slips back when you lean on it (should lock in place). Mileage is great. Overall quality & design is excellent! I love driving my civic.
