We have been very happy with this car so far in almost all regards. The older entertainment system is a little finicky with my iPhone, but all in all, that's a pretty small complaint. We have put a lot of miles on it since we got it and it's been outstanding. So happy we got it.

Bought my 4 door 2012 Civic used a year and a half ago. When the dealership prepped it and changed the oil they forgot to put the oil cap back on and oil spilled. That was more of an individual dealership thing and has not effected the car. My only complaint is that for some reason when I turn it on and idle on a cold engine there is a loud humming noise from the back of the car that increases then goes away. I have brought it to 3 mechanics and none of them can figure out what is wrong. Gas mileage is great. It's gone down lately because of the winter but I'm still getting 33.6 mpgs. Summer I got 34.5. Love this car!

I am impressed with the new 2012 Civic...still under two years old I have already put on over 50,000 miles with 0 problems..smartest buy I've made yet and it's my second Honda and will never buy anything else ! I avg 32 city and 33 to 39 on the highway depending on how I drive. Excellent gas mileage and comfortable car. Love the navigation, stereo and sound, leather interior which is nice and durable ! I just love my Honda and can't wait to drive it, it's a remarkable car ! I plan on trying to get as many miles out of it as I can !

Honda Civic performance is excellent, but CNG vehicle carpool access is awesome for a commuter.

2012 Honda Civic HF 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5A)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
In 12 years and 98,000 miles, I never had any problem. I had the Civic HF, 41 MPG on the highway. We did the oil changes, service maintenance, and tires/brakes. Everything work like a dream, totaled (rammed in to the back of my car), but no body was hurt. Which speaks a lot for the safety. I loved her. Now, I had to purchase a new Honda.

2012 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
This car has been nothing but amazing to me. I bought a 2012 si sedan off of a family friend that took great care it. had installed a skunk2 catless downpipe, with a skunk2 cold air intake and a borla exhaust. Had it tuned on hondata and opened the engine up more...I have had zero problems with this car, the engine is Rev happy which makes the car very fun to drive. Everywhere I have went I've gotten compliments about my car and the sound of it as well. I'm always told it doesn't sound like the typical rice burner. I bought the car with 130k and I'm currently at 174k. It runs amazing and strong. I do have the typical Honda paint fade but I'm going to have it repainted soon so I don't really care about it. I do definitely have future plans to build the motor and transmission some more

Fun to drive but even more fun in the corners

Amazing handling, love the k24 engine it delivers it's power in such a way that you almost get addicted to it's peppy 201hp and the 170 lbft of torque make for an amazing driving car. It's just so nimble and light feeling. It's almost like the cars an angry pug small yet shockingly quick and so light no corner intimidates you. I've owned my civic SI for only a few days and the first trip I took was to Hocking Hills and here with their 55mph speed limit and winding corners thought the forest make for such a perfect combination it's almost as fun getting there in this car as the attractions. Jeremy, Richard, and James should definitely come here for their next big grand tour event in subcompact sports cars like the civic SI and I guarantee by the time they've found samsquanch they would all be leaving in the same car. The civic SI. the one and only complaint I have is the fuel tank could be a little larger so that I can drive it more and fill it up less.

This is our 4th Honda (previously had an Accord, CR-V, and Pilot). We bought this EX-L to use mainly as a commuter car for me. We've had it about 2 months now, and I've already got just over 3K miles on it. Gas mileage has been great, it's comfortable, and wind noise is minimal. I know it's considered a "compact" car, but it feels anything but compact. In fact, it feels about the same size as our '90 Accord! Overall, we're very pleased with our purchase.
