Honda Civic LX four-door sedan with only 23000 miles. It reads to 50049 Mi and the car wouldn't start. I had no choice but to turned it in for another vehicle. I've been in a Honda owner in the past with an accord and that was a good experience I expected no different. This Honda Civic gave me repetitive problems with the starter. It is hard to comprehend how one can own a cream puff of a Honda like my Honda Civic LX 2012 four-door sedan and at 50,000 MI it would hesitate to start and that's with a new battery. To make matters worse the Honda people the dealer here in Homosassa Florida weren't even sure it was a problem with the starter. They fought it be $677 to fix a possible starter problem. And that is exactly how they put it on the invoice a possible starter issue. Right there at the Bay of the Honda dealer the car would not start that was so embarrassing. When great hesitation I had to turn it in for another car. I miss my Honda it was a cream puff of a car white with beige interior however how far is cream puff going to take you in a car that doesn't start. So how that gets an F. An f as in failure. And by the way every single time I took my vehicle into the Homosassa dealer they tried to nickel-and-dime me to death with little petty stuff. So Honda will not be seeing me for a very long long while. Because this gal does not have a money tree and her yard and I'm a pretty good gardener.

I went from a chevy truck to a Civic in May and I am very pleased. I test drove the 2011 and 2012 civic. The 2012 has more room for the driver because the E-brake is back further for more room. I am 76 inches tall at 265lb and comfortable in this vehicle. It also is iPod ready and very friendly to operate all features. The ECON feature is unbelievable to say the least. Gas mileage has increased since I bought this car. I now have 7500 miles on it and my MPG was 45 average on my drive home from work, it was 33MPG before I filled up due to my in town driving. You can't ask for a better car and gas mileage on a gas engine. It is peppy, but the more you get into it the lower the MPG.

I bought the Honda Civic LX last June and have put on this car about 15,000 miles. I'm not sure why this car initially got so many bad reviews. From what I can tell and have experienced these people reviewed the wrong car or are on drugs. Here are the facts after owning this car for almost 1 year. It averages about 39.8 mpg for my 30 mile commute to and from work everyday, is a blast to drive and I have had no mechanical or electrical problems at all. If you are looking for a great car, low maintenance, high mpg then look no further. I walked out of the dealership paying $18,000 for this car and have since then payed it off. I will keep this car as long as possible. Thank you Honda!
Scary in the rain

I bought this car with 1 mile on the odometer and at first loved it. Over the years 3 issues have happened enough to make me hate the car. 1. So scary in the rain. Light rain and low speed hydroplanes are not fun. Any rain and high speed hydroplanes are even less fun. Several times I have slid across a freeway because of this cars absolute inability to handle rain. 2. Wind noise and Road noise - so loud... I am exhausted by the beating the noise gives me on the freeway. 3. Electrical issues - battery dies just annually. The windows will sometimes get stuck down once lowered and will not go back up. The built charger doesn’t work. The car burns up replacement chargers. Stupid electrical nonsense. Overall it got the job done in a loud and scary manner. If your down with being yelled at by the wind and with sliding across the freeway this car is for you.

Originally purchased a 2000 Civic and have just recently passed it on to my daughter who was only six when I first bought the car. I loved my first Civic and didn't hesitate when buying a new one. Have had it for only a few weeks now, but it's been GREAT! I drive 70 miles per day round trip to and from work and it drives like a dream. I do a lot of highway and city driving and the gas mileage has been excellent. I don't understand the negative reviews. I've had no issue with noise or rattling. It's been a pleasure to drive so far! Hope this one lasts as long as my last!
