2011 Honda Civic DX 2dr Coupe (1.8L 4cyl 5A)
If you need a reliable car for a teenager or just a ride when commuting to work i would definitely recommend the '11 civic coupe. I've had mine on a lease for the past 3 years now and so far its been excellent on gas. the car is a little small especially for taller people but for short people like me its comfortable! I have never had an issue with driving it in snow (especially with some … michilen tires). it accelerates at a decent rate on the highway too. I will say though that its a high maintenance car. the slightest amount of dirt in the filter or air loss in the tires brings your mpg down. And the paint chips and scratches easily on it. The clock goes too fast too.

2011 Honda Civic LX 2dr Coupe (1.8L 4cyl 5A)
Past GM owner got tired of all the recalls and failures. Bought a Honda Civic as one of the most reliable vehicles out there. I have only had the car about a week, but I already love it. Handling is phenomenal, performance while not screamingly fast, is very good. Fuel economy in the first week has been good, 35 hwy, 30 round town. Comfort is good for such a small car. I took a 500 mile … round trip starting the second day I had the car and was more comfortable than in any car I have owned. Great little car. Long term reviews to follow.
Fun to drive, noisy, and unsure of quality

2011 Honda Civic EX-L 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)
Had the left rear wheel bearing replaced at 10K miles. Do a quick search and you will see wheel bearings on this generation of civic are an issue, and Honda didn't correct the problem even on the last model year. The car seems to be well built otherwise, only a small rattle by the tweeter near the front left of the windshield.
I love my Honda

2011 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)
Good car for a single person or couple, or even for a family of three. Tall people don't fit in the back seat though. I love my little Honda; the only trouble I've had is having to replace the A/C last year - which was $1,000, it has some road noise, and it's a tight fit for a big family BUT it's still wonderful and I will hopefully drive it til the wheels fall off. Has 190,000 miles … right now and still going strong.
