So sorry
This is my 3rd honda, 2nd civic ex-l. i had a 2015 civic ex-l and traded in for 2016 civic ex-l. I am so sorry i did that and paying a lot more for no difference in upgrade. the trunk is small, no power seats on the drivers side. I think they cut the size a lot! I think in 3 years going to change to a different make car. I am so sorry i traded my 2015, : ( big big big mistake!!! only thing good it has 8 speakers and turbo and faster than the 2015 and has Sirrus! that is it. Don't waste your money.

Great car for the price.
Being just over 6ft tall I am comfortable, but my hair sometimes brushes the roof (car had moonroof so slight loss in space. But I bought the car for my son who is 5'10" and it's perfect for him. As a parent, Honda Sensing is a real comfort factor for me.

Smooth sailing in a gas affordable car!
Love my 2016 Honda Civic! Stylish, gas affordable and made to last! The only car and make I’ve purchased since 1986! Traded about every two years! Hardly spent a dime other than oil, tire rotation, maintenance and gas! Purchased sometime the Civic Sedan and sometimes the Coupe. Both built to last! Kept the monthly payments affordable! Had a car that looked brand new while working! When to the dealership I trusted Hugh White and purchased from the same agent Jim Jeffers! Used their service department and found they were trust worthy! With that confidence I never chose another, make of car!
It's cosmic!

Awesome body design
Engine performance is awesome but one problem I have seen so far is the rear center light cover kept falling off. I was told that there is a recall and a new adhesive is being developed to correct the issue, otherwise overall it's great for single guys and gals.

Not recommend when it goes old
I bought this 2016 civic EX in 2015, as a new car. The alternator broke when the car is ~15k mileage, and at that time the warranty still covered this which is OK, but the car just stopped in middle of nowhere and cannot start when the alternator failed, and it costed me ~ $100 to tow the car to the dealer, plus one day time and I have to leave the car in the dealer a few days for repair. Currently, this car is in 55k mileage and out of warranty already, and the engine gasket is aging, leaking liquid to stuff such as circuit and generating smoke while starting, and the starter also went bad due to that. Cause it’s already out of warranty, and it’s pretty costly if you repair it in a dealer: I am in San Francisco Bay Area, the diagnosis itself costs $200+, and replace the engine gasket is $500+, and the starter replacement costs $2400+. So I can tell actually the engine itself runs well during years, but the quality of Honda’s parts is actually very poor controlled. I am planning to switch to Toyota or some other brands with better parts quality control.

2016 Honda Civic
I have really been impressed with the changes Honda has made to the Civic since I owned my last one which was a 1996 model. I really have been spoiled on the keyless start and remote start feature. The Display Audio works great with my smartphone and gives me on-board navigation using Google Maps. My gas mileage has been terrific so far and I hope as the engine breaks in will increase even more. I'm 6'2" and I can sit comfortably in my Civic though my hair will sometimes hit the headliner if I sit the chair up straight. The seat height is adjustable but I feel like I'm sitting on the floor if I let it down too low.

LUV MY CIVIC EX-T
This is a great car to drive and enjoy overall. I have the Turbo that works quickly to reach 60mph and beyond. Great looking car and interior, with a plenty of room in the truck for shopping, suitcases, or golf bag. I wish I would've otten power seats just because of the many different positions. Don't get me wrong, the seats are comfotable, just my own preference. The steering wheel volume control is new, but placed beside another control which I have push instead many times. I would highly recommend this Civic EX-T for those wanting dependability and great looks. This is a winner design for Honda.
Like the last three civics I have owned, reliable
Love the space, more roomier then the older models, best bang for buck, stock has plenty of technology for a driver who uses bluetooth. The gas mileage is stellar, and the car holds well.

Fan fricking tastic car.
Best bang for the buck currently on the market plus Honda's lease deals leave you scratching your head wondering how the company is making any money at all. I can't say enough good things about this car and it's hard to criticize much of anything. The good. Honda hit a home run IMO when it comes to styling, comfort, and just being a darn fun car to drive. Oh. It's cheap too. Fuel economy is through the roof. The CVT is just fine, it shifts the car better than you can. Acceleration is more than pleasant, bordering on giggly fun. If you want brutal you're gonna have to go buy a Charger Hellcat or similar. Don't expect a Civic to compete with that. My gripes are few. Two to be exact. Visibility out the rear window could be a little better (but it's still not too bad) and the GUI for the touch screen radio .... interface .... thing was apparently designed by an engineer and not a normal, ya know, person. Good luck finding a radio station. Or the radio for that matter. The volume knob is actually for climate control. huh. ok. The steering wheel mounted buttons work far better and are easy to use thankfully.

Great lease price
This Hoňda Civic is good on gas. Had to get use to the CVT transmission. Wasn't to happy that I had to take the car in for a Crystal Windshield Infusion Coating. Having a bad back, I didn't realize how low the car was to the ground.

I love my new Civic EX-T, but it can get better
The style both inside and outside of this car are great and a huge improvement. The engine is the best one in the segment and delivers impressive power for 1.5 L motor in an economy car. The CVT is also far less annoying than previous iterations of this device (I'm a fan of a manual trans, but I deal with too much traffic to want to drive a stick in my everyday commuter). The car handles well and is fun to drive. It comes well equipped with a decent stereo, a decent infotainment system, heated seats, moonroof, etc. Forgive the run-on paragraph, this website won't accept carriage returns. There are some areas with room for improvement. The infotainment system needs a proper software update to simplify the menu structure, allow seamless handsfree sending of text messages. I tell it send a text to my wife that I'll be home in xx minutes, and it starts spewing back random numbers. Installing Android 7 in my S-7 did enable it to reply handsfree to a text after I receive one and the system has read it. No hardware needs to be modified, this is purely a code upgrade. The brakes offer good performance unless you head down a long steep hill behind pokey traffic. I managed to fade them pretty badly coming down Old Priests Grade. I now use low range on the CVT if descending such a long steep hill, especially behind traffic. Honda should fix these two issues right away as they are safety issues. I have three other suggestions for improvement that would be easy in a mid-cycle update of the 10th generation Civic: 1. Volume knob (clearly you know this as the new CR-V has one), 2. Add more padding to the seats, and extra $.58 of foam would help tremendously. At the front edge of the hood is a small narrow extension of the hood above the grill. This separate piece hurts the clean lines of the front of the car, just extend the hood and make it work (I could do it, I know you can too), The extra small features catch the nap of the wash mitt I use every time I clean my car and it's annoying.

Great Car with Annoying Touch Screen Display Fault
Buy this car with a good warranty, The Handsfree Phone Link with the iPhone 7 could be better. I cannot skip forward on Audio Books using the car controls. Defective Touch Screen was replaced within one day by Dealer free of charge. Too bad there is no indication that the new replacement is any different then the bad unit before it went bad. I highly recommend this vehicle as it rides smooth and gets super gas mileage. MPG starts at 30 when cold and goes to 35MPG after 5mins of warming up in the city then I have seen over 45MPG on the highway while still providing significant acceleration. Short couple mile city trips I still get over 30MPG. It's easy to AVG 35MPG. Turbo Engine uses regular fuel. The quick Fuel feature is so nice, no gas cap needed. Compared to the old 2007 Honda Civic I had this is more comfortable, better MPG, Faster, Quieter and all around better. Honda just needs to address the electronic quality issues. You get a lot for your money when buying a car that sell over 300,000 units per year including easy cheap maintenance costs. Also that makes for more negative comments as for the same percentage of defect rate there are more cars so I would not let that scare people away.

HONDA CIVIC HAS ALL NEW LOOK AND STYLE
I have had my 2016 Civic since late April of 2016 and leased it brand new! Has been my best Honda so far. Love the styling and design of the Civic. The Honda sensing package is well worth the added cost. It practaclly drives it self. Handles beautifully and the entertainment system sounds so great! I highly recommend taking a test drive you will be amazed that it's a Civic.

The first car I've ever loved
The first car I've ever loved! This is a fantastic car for the money. Looks and feels so much more expensive than it is. It's beautiful inside and out. Mine is cosmic blue which I think gives it a really rich look. I love the center console design, it's very comfortable and has a ton of room for storage. The interior looks and feels of high quality which was unexpected for a car in this price range . The turbo is a really nice feature. Believe me when I say that when you step on the gas this car really goes. I have no doubt I'm going to get my first speeding ticket in this car. Its super fun to drive. Excellent safety features and the technology is great. I've had no problems with it so far and I'm at 1600 miles. Great on gas too. I can't say enough good things about this civic. I have a feeling that this is the beginning of a long and beautiful relationship!

Best car I've owned.
This car is great. The notorious air conditioning condenser had failed at 50,000 kilometres and was replaced under full warranty. No other issues so far, knock on wood. Peppy 2 litre, responsive touch screen, no electronic issues, e-brake is functioning. I've heard engine mounts are weak on these, I'll keep an eye out. So far so good. Only weird complaint is the CVT sounds like it's going to stall every so often but doesn't.
