  My first new honda - 2008 Honda Civic
  By blondelulu - June 3 - 3:48 pm

  I have had my honda for 2 years. I enjoy my Honda, love the gas mileage. I have had problems with my car not starting on the first try more than once. Also have had problems with my clutch making popping sounds while driving. Had it fixed and not a week and a half later it started popping again. The paneling in the back window rattles when listening to music. Very cheap plastic. The factory tires that came on the car were bridge-stone, they were horrible. They became lumpy and made the car vibrate going down the road. Other than that i love my car its fun to drive.

  Favorite Car - 2008 Honda Civic
  By civicacct - May 12 - 5:39 pm

  I absolutely love my 2008 Honda Civic EX-L. I have had several cars - VW, Acura, Pontiac - and the Civic is the best car I have owned. Its fun to drive, its plenty peppy and its comfortable. The price is great for the quality of the vehicle.

  I love this care and I would most definitely by another Honda. I have a 2 door coupe and have 2 kids they fit in comfortable. I love the options it came with. I really love this car.

  Nothing to write home about - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Markl - April 29 - 6:12 pm

  This is my third civic and I dont think it stands up with the others. The clutch/accelerator syncro makes it unstable to pull out on hills and the car has not had even acceleration since the day I bought it. I keep hoping that maybe it will get better.

  Best Civic Ever! - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Chance - April 27 - 10:44 am

  Definitely, the best car I have ever owned. No complaints here-nothing but accolades! This model is much larger with a lot more style than the usual civic.

  Dont buy unless driving highway & alone - 2008 Honda Civic
  By JP - April 9 - 12:57 pm

  The is my third Honda Civic and second Hybrid. I had previously a 2006. This car give good gas mileage on the open road but average 32 mpg in town. It has very uncomfortable seats and feels terrible when in-laws are in the back seat. Personally, I think Honda cut corners on their suspension (rear). I thought it was my 2006 but the 2008 performs exactly the same. Wish I had not risked the same buy a second time. On a positive note, it looks great and does consistently provide at least 40 mpg even at 70 mph.

  Okay car, needs work to make fun to own - 2008 Honda Civic
  By ExcuseI! - April 5 - 9:29 pm

  Bought the car used at a steal (fuel prices had come down and people had already migrated away from fuel efficient cars). Took it on a trip from VA to JAX and averaged 39.5mpg (!). However, the hills of CA and shorter commutes drop the mileage down to 20-25 mpg. For the (lack of) performance from the car I would expect better. My 2005 V6 Tacoma crew cab auto gets 17-20 mpg around town and has much better power. The ride is very loud and I feel the interior material quality isnt as good as my wifes old 1996 Civic (gone). There are scratches on the hard plastics in 1 year that werent there on the 10 year old Civic. However, it has many features for what we paid, but Civic needs a refresh.

  Love It ^_^ - 2008 Honda Civic
  By jdmforever - April 4 - 11:54 pm

  This is an amazing car. I bought it used, but in great shape. Its got lots of power, especially after 6,000 rpm. =] The interior is great, the seats feel amazing, and the six-speed is wonderful. It has great fuel mileage, considering the type of car it is. This car is surprisingly big on the inside, which is nice. The Si Sedan is the best car out there for the money, and its a Honda, so itll run forever!

  Good on gas - 2008 Honda Civic
  By Ms.Jones - April 1 - 10:30 am

  Drives well, no serious mechanical issues even though it was a salvage, One issues have been the damage done before I bought it when it was stolen. The rear shock is leaking, thinking about having the gear box looked at changing gears isnt as fluid as when I first bought it.

  Best car owned so far - 2008 Honda Civic
  By my08hondacivic - March 30 - 10:16 pm

  I purchased my 2008 Honda Civic brand new two years ago. I have owned two Toyota Corollas before and I pick the Civic over those two. I havent had any trouble with it, so far. This Civic requires minimal maintenance and I save alot more with my Civic than I did with my previous cars. It is a small car but very spacious and comfortable for both driver and passengers. Mileage is ok considering I drive street for the most part. I have made minor changes to both interior and exterior but for looks only. I highly recommend this car.
