1,500 miles so far

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic LX 2dr Coupe (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

I've had this car for 12 days, & I've got 1,500 miles on it. I love it so much so far, but I can't really speak truthfully about its reliability b/c I haven't had any problems w/ it since I haven't had it for very long at all. I drive about 75% highway & 25% city, & I have an average of 36.75 MPG.

2013 Honda Civic Hybrid PZEV 4dr Sedan w/Nav (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Review

I recently bought my wife a 2013 civic hybrid for Mother's Day and we are really happy with this car. We've had several hondas so we new what to expect. This car is super quiet and the engine has more power than my previous civic hybrid. (I had a 08 civic hybrid ). I traded in my honda Insight wich I did like it ainsight lot too but the new civic has more features.

Good Value

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic EX-L PZEV 2dr Coupe (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

This sedan has enough hi-tech features to wow. Interior is comfortable but feels confined (I replaced a 2008 Camry hybrid) but reasonably comfortable for medium distance trips. I only have the car for two weeks and filled the tanks twice. In town I was averaging 23-24 mpg. I took a 10-hour round trip mostly at 55-60 mph I was getting close to 39-40 mpg. On acceleration the car has a tendency to be jerky if the gas pedal is released. After driving the round trip for close to 9 hrs my back started to get stiff. A lower back support may be the next item I should try. The trunk is small but acceptable; it could accommodate 2 sets of golf clubs with room for overnight luggage.

Great car can be better

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic EX-L 4dr Sedan w/Nav (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

Honda did a great job on this Civic. They fixed the inadequatcies that Consumer Reports pointed out. Fit and quality excellent. For those that feel the ride noisy, upgrade to the EX. The noise is from the cheaper tires on the LX. This is true with all the Honda line up. Blue tooth works great, navi and radio excellent. Good ride quality, 36-38 MPG HW at 65-75 mph. Overall 29-31 mpg, even with my wife driving...she only know to accelerate or brake..nothing inbetween. 4 wheel disc brakes stop the car very quickly compare to disc/drum combo. I've heard some complaints about the seats, I find them very comfortable. The Hyundi elantra has 2 big blind spots, Honda does not.

Really glad I purchased this!

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

I really enjoy this car. It's definitely saved me on gas with the econ feature. My old Elantra '01 would use up a full tank a week to get to work, with my Civic using econ I use 1/2 a tank a week. Only thing with econ is it drives a little slow going up hills and such, but that should be obvious because that's how it works. You can't hit the gas and take off, but I'm fine with that! I drove it in the horrible road conditions from our last snow storm and while it was very bumpy from the poor plowing, I may have slid once or twice, where as other cars I watched were all over the road. Some of the blind spots could take a while to adjust to.

Honda Civic 2013 EX-L

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic EX-L 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

I've had the car for over a month now so I think I can write a fair review. I considered the Corolla, the Mazda 3, and Nissan Sentra and while I liked the colors available in all of those, I felt more comfortable driving a Civic. My old 2003 Civic was great and this is awesome! Bluetooth, spacious room for a 5'5 male. The car is just fun to drive and gives great MPG. It's quiet and climate control is great. I didn't like the wheels at first but I love the sporty look on them now. Trunk space is limited but spacious enough for groceries, sporting equipment, and the crap I carry around. Dealer wanted to sell me multiple warranties, my response.."It's a Honda!" I know it will start in the a.m.

happiest day of my life!

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

I was hopping from one dealer to another from san diego to orange county and cerritos the whole day today. Its either other dealerships wouldnt give me a try or wouldn't give me any good deals since i had a bad credit history from before in the past, but this dealership was just excellent. The atmosphere of the people working in the store is just pleasant. My sales consultant Mr. Nick Pin never let me down even when i already told him my case. He said theres no reason why i should be turned down in the first place. He made me feel special and gave me hope that i could have a car by the end of the night. A used old car was all i was hoping for yet he gave me a brand new honda civic LX.

2013 Civic Si DELIVERS!

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)

Review

After driving a 2002 WRX, 2009 Forester XT (turbo), a tuned 1990's Altima (w/ slip diff), I'm happy to say the new Si is the best of them all! Road & wind noise are minimized, hearing only the rough & grumble growl of the engine. A buttery smooth clutch with short throws is easy & fun. Front slip diff performs remarkably, & even makes driving on all season 17" / 45s in snow & slush tolerable (I normally have snow tires). Ergos are nice, especially the back split fold down seats, center arm rest, matched int colors, & standard back-up camera. Of course there could be more space & luxury, like an Acura TSX or Audi A4. But then again, you won't pay $30k++ for the Si! Grade: A+

Happy with my 13 HCH!!!!!!

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic Hybrid PZEV 4dr Sedan w/Lthr, Nav (1.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Review

I got the Green Opal one 2 weeks ago. I now have about 500 miles on the car, and it came with 106. It was the only one available in the Tri-state area that was equipped as I wanted! It drives so nice and smoothly and I enjoy the great technology upgrade from the 2005 I sold in order to get this car. The Winter mpg change from the 2005 HCH to the new one, is pretty significant. I was told to keep the Econ button on all of the time to get the best mileage. If you are expecting a Green car, you will be surprised by the color changes the metallic paint makes. There are times the car looks light blue, blue/green. and an almost sea foam green. This is all dependent on the lighting!

Noteworthy improvements and a great daily driver

Vehicle

2013 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Review

The compact market doesnt have 2 or 3 clear cut winners anymore. Honda underestimated this when they designed the 2012 civic (which my wife owns). For someone like her, who just wants something that is painless to own and operate, and gets good mpg, its a great car. But for me, the improvements on the 2013 are a little more than subtle. the biggest and most obvious ones are with the new standard features and the interior quality. I never had a quiet honda until now. Its quieter than my buddies 2012 focus, which is something i'd never thought id be able to say. gotten nothing but compliments and it feels very germanic..more like my old golf than my previous civics
