Used 2015 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Honda Hits a Home Run!
My 2001 Honda Civic LX with 268k miles finally had to go due to mounting repair costs and I ended up replacing it with this beauty. This car is solidly built for a "basic" car. The interior has a clean look and the outside looks quite sharp. I opted for a 5spd Manual since my prior car was one and admit it is quite peppy with a smooth clutch. I walked off the lot with the car brand new for $15,200 (not including tax, fees, etc). The car handles very well, with very little road noise on the freeways and is quite responsive (avg 35 MPG, 60% Freeway). My only gripe was the stock radio was not very good with a lot of static, I am not sure if it's the area I live but my prior car didn't have the issue. I wanted an LX since I could swap out the center console that was better then what Honda (Honda Link) made, I ended up replacing the OEM ratio with a Pioneer 4100NEX (Android Auto/Apple Car Play, HD Radio, etc) which ran $500 out the door. For the price and what you get with the whole package you can't go wrong. I had a choice with the 2016 but the 2015 model was by far a better deal and with the new radio, brings in many features the 2016 model incorporates for a premium. Out the door for a car brand new <16k you can't go wrong, I think a comparable car with the upgrades would go for >23k. Overall a great buy and reliable so far.

Just leased my new Civic, nice car.
Good interior & trunk space. Comfortable seats. Poor accelleration & mileage for a 5-speed. Nice sound system (USB & iPOd connection). Just wish Honda would recognize us Android smartphone owners! Great A/C.

Great car!
I went into purchasing this car and was hesitant at first. I started looking for cars with Hyundai and such before, and did not like them one bit. I started researching other cars such as Chevrolet Cruze and just Honda in general. Less than 5 minutes at the dealer and I was offered a test drive. The car is fantastic, have had it for 2 months and still love it. Great first new car. (Got rid of my 2004 Ford Taurus - wanted an upgrade) Edit: it's now been 8 months since I've gotten the civic and I still love it very much. As it is a 3 year lease, in a couple of years I'll have to decide whether or not to renew it. Theoretically, I will; however being a young man a newer version may be out and I may want that. All in all, I'm sticking with Hondas.

Peeling Paint on roof
Over all the 2015 civic is a good economy car. However, Honda has an issue with their factory paint. My white civic has paint peeling on roof from rear window and both A pillars. Honda acknowledges that it is a factory paint issue but won’t fix the issue.

Has H20 idiot lite for temp. otherwise ok
No Water Temperature Gauge is in the Civic. It has the idiot lite instead. I tell my friends to stay away from this civic. In my opinion, a water temp. gauge is critical to being able to prevent problems before things get out of control. Example: When in stop and go traffic or on trips where there are lots of hills you want to be able to monitor if your engine water temp. is starting to go up ... Why? because if you have your air conditioner on, you will want to turn off your AC for a while so the temp. gauge does not go up and stress out your water hoses and engine. When this car gets to be a few years older and i put stress on my old water hoses because i cannot see What the temp. is, the car will be less reliable. I drive in areas in the United States where there are signs on the roads where there are long grades that say, " watch your engine temp." and prevent "boil overs". Its is amazing the Honda Corporation does not realize how people in many areas of America would be much better off with a water temp. gauge. This lack of in site with Honda Corporation raises a "red flag" to be careful with buying a Honda product because i wonder what else in all their dumb wisdom have they overlooked.
