Used 2007 Honda Civic Consumer Reviews
Near perfect car
This thing is incredible. I loved my 2003 Acura RSX-S, but this is a step up. Yes, a step UP. It has more sophisticated technology, better build quality, more of the "it" factor, and it's my daily driver. I still love my K20s, and this car is built so well around it, I am pleased to say that I've never owned a car as satisfying as this. Get the navi, you will regret it if you don't buy it.
Can't go wrong
Purchased in May, already 4000 miles (two long road trips), couldn't be happier. Yes, there are faster, flashier cars out there, but for overall practicality you just can't beat the Civic. We're actually looking at getting another. It's true, close to 40 mpg on the highway, about 30 or so in town. Granted, it doesn't have the pep that some may desire, but heck, it's a 4-cylinder! The power, however, is plenty sufficient for merging onto the freeway, driving uphill, etc. And did I mention the gas mileage!? The EX of course has the sunroof as well as stereo controls on the steering wheel. The mp3 jack is a great feature as well. Honda is just doing it right. We love it.
What a surprise
I purchased the vehicle without a test drive for a second car for my daughters. I previoulsy had a Matrix AWD, but could not get side curtain air bags. I have always owned Toyotas and I was completely surprised by what a great car the Civic is to drive. On the highway the wind had no affect (very stable) and the motor was extremely smooth. I love the safety features. The only complaint I have is the emergency brake is in a bad spot for tall drivers. What a thrill.
The Truth You'll Hear From Me
I love my new car. The gas mileage is supposed to be excellent: 30 in the city and 40 on the highway. I've had the car a week and still have a half tank of gas. It must be true. Gas will NEVER go down; why buy a gas guzzler? The doors are made high, which makes me feel safer. Some cars have too much glass. I wouldn't feel safe in a side collision in such a car. I'd suggest silver; it shows less dirt. White is pretty on this type of car; black, too, but blk shows dirt easier. There is a light blue which is handsome. I have mudguards. Glad to have them. The dash is cavernous. Buy a duster. This car looks more like a fine European car; what with its back-seat head restraints.
Thought I had bought perfect ca. Wrong!
When I bought I never thought I had to see a mechanic again for a long time . Wrong. I had minor and major problems. Although I still love my Civic. Maybe it happens 1 in 1000 I don't know. Hope it's not a lemon. First had to go back to replace split sun visor. Then battery. ( some times when starting engines makes a zzzzzzzrrrrrr sound. And engines does not start.) dealer adviser told me battery was changed. It won't happen again. Wrong still same . But I gave up on that. Second I had to have my Civic towed to dealer with tensioner belt, tensioner bolt, water pump and don't know what else. That day I wondered myself if I had bought a lemon car.
