it has 304,000 miles on it and looks nearly new inside and out, no mechanical problems besides disposable issues. Nothing else to say.

This is a mechanically great, peppy little car. The seats aren't too bad and adjust for a 5'7" driver to a 6'1" driver comfortably. We've owned the car 11 years and has a little less than 200K miles. Other than routine maintanence, battery, tires, brakes, oil changes every 3K-5K miles we never had any issues....until now. The oil light has come on and the engine isn't getting oil. We stopped ASAP so hopefully no catastrophic damage but it looks as if the oil pump has failed. That is dissappointing as it has been well maintained. We'll find out soon if the repairs will cost more than the car is worth. Otherwise, it has been a great car.

This car rocks socks. Just like I do when I'm driving this car. It goes fast. It goes slow. It goes where I want it to go.

Genuine Love Forr My 2012 Si Coupe

I have a highly earned respect for my 2012 Si coupe. I bought her new in 2012 and have had NO major technological issues, even at 130K miles on the original clutch plate. She deserves some respect Maybe I'm weird, but I honestly don't give a damn about how luxurious the interior is. If the vehicle is supposed to be focused on performance, let it focus on performance! I have zero brand loyalty. What I do have is car loyalty. My 2012 Si Coupe has easily been the best vehicle of my lifetime, and I've been around a LONG damn time. Update: I have now had the car for nearly 13 years, and it still runs like it was new. It has 140K miles on it, and has had no issues outside of standard maintenance. I also still think it is the best looking Si ever made.

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.
Love 2nd time around

I recently owned a 2006 civic coupe and crashed at no fault of my own, it was totaled, so when I got the insurance check I immediatly told my boyfriend I want another civic. He tried to get me to look at other types of cars, but I had to have my civic and I just love my 2012 automatic w/ navigation. I feel safe and comfortable with the size of the car. I dont feel the road noise as people talk about or the vibrations. My car has a smooth ride and its a step up from the 2006, but to be honest, I liked the look of my 2006, it was more sporty, but thats not neither her or there, its a great car. I get double takes on the 2012 car all the time. I know I made the right decision.

I like my car, but it's broke down 3 times in the first 3,600 miles. The rocker arm bent the first, and the next time another rocker arm broke in two. This should not happen with a that only has 3,600 mile on it. Has anyone else had this issue?
