I rack up a lot of mileage and I have kids to shuttle around so I need a car to be 100% reliable and inexpensive to run. I also think dealer service is a waste of money and the only service I perform on my cars is an oil change and tire rotation at whichever quick-lube joint I happen to be driving by when the maintenance minder goes on. I could drive a Toyota, but talk about bland. Civics are the perfect blend of sporty and economical, have great driving manners, good build quality and are more than powerful enough to appeal to most drivers. The 2013 is no exception, not to mention it's so classy and well equipped you really wonder how long people are going to waste money buying luxury cars.
Fun to drive

Easy to park, responds immediately to commands (better than my cat!), the front of the car looks like it’s smiling. Comfortable for rear passengers.

I am already on 203k miles after years of highway driving only for about the first 5 years of her life, I finally had to get breaks, spark plugs and transmission fluid service. She's done me well and will hopefully last another 203k miles.
Great car can be better

2013 Honda Civic EX-L 4dr Sedan w/Navigation (1.8L 4cyl 5A)

Honda did a great job on this Civic. They fixed the inadequatcies that Consumer Reports pointed out. Fit and quality excellent. For those that feel the ride noisy, upgrade to the EX. The noise is from the cheaper tires on the LX. This is true with all the Honda line up. Blue tooth works great, navi and radio excellent. Good ride quality, 36-38 MPG HW at 65-75 mph. Overall 29-31 mpg, even with my wife driving...she only know to accelerate or brake..nothing inbetween. 4 wheel disc brakes stop the car very quickly compare to disc/drum combo. I've heard some complaints about the seats, I find them very comfortable. The Hyundi elantra has 2 big blind spots, Honda does not. After 42kmiles, No problems. Put gas in, change oil rotate tires. Ave mpg 32.8. 51 k update No problems, voice recognition on navigation is pretty useless. The navi doesn't recognize a lot of commands, but it gets me to where I want to go. Transmission fluid changed oil changes, new tires and gas have been the only costs.

Great Mileage, but feels cheap

Bought the manual because I did not like how bad shifting felt in automatic. Pros: mileage is insanely good - averaging about 37 combined with 75% highway and 25% around town (I drive pretty conservatively, highway is cruise control with econ button on). Safety - was rear ended, not injured, car held up fine. Fairly quiet and comfortable - good space for a smaller car. Cons: It was relatively cheap and it feels cheap. I had a VW golf before this and it felt like a tank in comparison (mileage sucked). The paint already has a chip after one month. And there is a sloshing sound that comes from the gas tank that is really noticeable if you have the radio off.
