We, my wife and I have always drove Hondas. This is our fourth iteration of the Civic. Test drove the EX-T 1.5L Turbo and the one we settled on was the 2.0 EX Sedan. To tell you the truth, not a huge difference in acceleration and performance between the 1.5T and 2.0. Just a 1mpg difference between the two engines. The 2.0 accelerates well from a stop as well as on the freeway and passing maneuvers. Never worried about merging with traffic, CVT performs well and always in the correct ratio when needed. Even in ECO mode, performance is diminished some, but transmission/engine will engage when needed for passing etc. The 7.0" Center Dash Digital Display takes a while to understand. A little slow on input response, but works fine. Cloth interior on center console, and armrests etc. gets soiled very easily and material feels a bit flimsy. Not sure how well it will hold up, time will tell. From our first CVCC, to our 1988, then 2002, to our current 2017. Lesson learned, always stick with an reliable, well engineered car! Wife loves it...oh btw, we purchased the white orchid pearl color, nice...

So far so good! I've had my 2017 Honda Civic EX for 3 months & 2 days. I now have 12,000 miles on my Civic. The gas mileage is amazing I literally get 44 mpg highway. I've drove to the city of Atlanta 3 times & I have to go back for a forth time in two weeks. The driver seat isn't totally confortable with no way to adjust the lumber bar. The steering wheel has the perfect balance. The screen in my EX model is easy to use & has the perfect sloped centered location. Apple CarPlay is good to have for navigation on the screen from your iPhone. Remote start came standard on my EX and I absolutely love it. Push button start is always a perk to have. Sometimes the CVT shifts at the wrong time which causes my Civic to jump when in stop in & go traffic at times. The daytime running lights are such a eye catcher. The Civic does sit low to the ground so having 4 average size adults would make the car weigh more to the ground. A full tank of gas says between 380-390 miles to E & a half tank says between190-200 miles to E. If you over fill the gas tank it will says between 430-460 miles to E. The 16 inch rims on my EX has a fresh looking appearance. Half the car is literally painted plastic & the other half is fiberglass. I typically drive on long stretch of highways minimum 40 miles one way to maximum 70 miles one way. So in one day I drive 80 miles to 140 miles on a highway.

Bought the 2017 Honda Civic as the first car for my daughter turning 16. She had max budget of 20K, but we had a little wiggle room. This car has great features in that price range and drives great. She drove the civic and accord and preferred the civic. Great gas milage and she preferred the handling of the civic. She will be paying for her own gas, so the MPG was great. The car has sporty and pretty styling and next to my '07 MB C230, is about the the same size! She is super proud of it!

I bought a 2017 Honda Civic brand new, and has only driven this car for 4,500 miles from 2017 to 2019. From the beginning this car has a heating and air conditioning problem. In the winter the windows are frosted I have problem seeing outside. I can't see the vehicle at the back of me and also the side of me. In the summer the outside air is cooler than the inside of the car. The car is blowing hot air. Buying a brand new car and had to drive with the windows down is a disgrace. It is a bad investment for me , I regret buying this car. Be careful if you plan to buy one.
Stay Away!

I've always had a Honda, this was my first ZERO miles & NEW NEW car! I have had this car 3 years now. I loved the look and how it drove, my car is my baby!! HOWEVER! FIRST Month-Front bumper popped out of place! It was bizarre, I know no one hit me-paint and body were fine. Rear bumper-the black plastic trim started loosing off. Like wth? Brand new car and already coming undone front to back? First year- we had a bad rain storm and my wipers completely died! Yup, mid drive. Turns out the motor died. More paint chips around the body and parts look as if they weren't sealed right??? Second year- battery died (waaaaaay too soon) The navigation and Apple CarPlay keep freezing and locking up. I use a legit iphone charger and they keep burning out after connecting to car. Sun Roof is starting to make a screeching noise and locking up. Third year- the chrome trim in my interior is chipping badly (Again, I take really good car of my car. Everyone thinks its brand new.) This weekend I went to get oil change & I'm told the AC Clutch & Coil are out & guess what, yeeeees-my warranty is out therefore Honda is asking for $928!!! I have done my research and MANY people are having AC issues and funny how they come up after warranty is out. Many say that the dealers are telling them to prepare to fix again AFTER you give them all that money and "fix" it. I have always rooted for Honda and loved their cars. I've had 3 different ones & years-all used. However, I'm really disappointed at the poor quality they put into this car. It could've been one of the BEST cars out there, TOP quality that lasted over 300k miles. Now, I don't believe mine will unless I keep putting money into it. I've never had so many issues with a used car-this was my first new car & never again. I also HATE going to any Honda dealership. I have been several times to different ones & I feel as if they just don't care to help you out. Save your money because this seems like it is just the beginning of a money pit!! :(
