    I still own my Honda Civic 2014 EX model it has 110k miles and it’s still running like a beast no problems whatsoever. Always done it’s maintenance on time. This generation Honda was well built and really reliable. 😎

      @@corwaincyrus5 I had a EX-L. Came with a 1.5T engine. It was the one right below the highest trim for that model year (the Touring trim).
      I’d say to get one that has that engine. But if you’re not picky, get whatever you’d be comfortable with. That gen lasted til 2021 so your purchase of a 2016 won’t seem outdated. They’ve now made a new generation for 2022. Exterior is kind of lame though.

    Mine is a 2005 w/118,000 miles on it. Still gets about 32-33 MPG. Some cosmetic stuff going because of age. Only around the 95K mark did it start to need more and more work on it besides oil changes, new tires and filter replacements.
    It's also a stick shift. Which means it has a low rate of theft because kids today don't know how to drive a stick!

    I recently bought one. I used a Tacoma as a daily drive for the last 7 years, and I wanted to give her a break. This is a fun car I will admit, but imo it could use a little extra pep. Idk anything about modifying a vehicle for some additional HP, but im told Civics are very easy to tune, and all I would need is an exhaust and a better air flowing air intake system, and maybe a computer to calibrate the adjustments. Suppose that's true (which I have 0 idea if it is), if I change out the exhaust on the civic, its not going to sound like a weed wacker, is it? I dont want to draw attention, just add a little extra power is all

    Need advice anyone please??? I can't decide between a 2012 Scion Tc auto, 120k miles or a 2012 Honda Civic LX w Manual Transmission, 88k miles. I like the idea of a Honda with lower mileage even though it's slow and not sporty look. The Tc is faster as far as hp goes and looks better than the Civic LX but the 2 doors might make car insurance higher. I just want a fun daily, driver car and yes, I considered a Civic Si but they're out of my budget and most are high mileage or heavily modded. Let me know your thoughts??? Thx

    I have a '99 Civic that I bought new. I just bought a 2014 Civic (5 speed manual) and was horrified. My 99 is a thousand times more comfortable (I'm thinking about taking the seats out of the 99 and putting them in the 2014). There is FAR more room inside the 99. The 99 handles better on the highway. And the 99 has almost 300k on it, still running great...After 24 years. I couldn't find a low mileage 99 to buy now in 2023 so I bought the 2014 because it was the highest rated year in the 2010's. Wow these new cars are junk.

      You sure it was your transmission? What were your symptoms? I THOUGHT my 2014 Civic EX-L 72k miles transmission was bad. It became very slow when 0-60. Felt like it was dying at 35 and it started jerking. The engine even died on me a few times when making a few U-turns. until I checked to clean my MAF and found out I had a hole in the airflow tube. 20 replacement and cleaned the throttle and maf. It drives excellent again.
