With this civic you don’t need to pay 10k extra for a brand new hybrid that will take time to get use to the quietness and these civics are so reliable, easy to work on, and spacious! 🚘 great review again Gold 🐴
Excellent review, especially the photography (in spite of the Fit clip that got mixed in there 😉). You provided a lot of camera angles that I’ve never seen elsewhere. 👍
Purchased the Civic EX-T back in July. It was my second choice that I do not regret. Handling is great and I like the interior design despite some cheap bits. The infotainment is buggy and laggy but it works. I have no complaints with this vehicle. I was reluctant to get a Honda but now I got it, I am turning into a fan.
What does EX-T mean? Did you simply get a Civic Touring? I’m supposed to pick one up tomorrow but I’m not 100 sure. The civic gets a redesign that Honda is releasing all the pics & specs on this month on the 28th.
@@2004cyrus T is for the turbo engine. You save yourself about 4K if you get this over the touring. What is different is cloth seats, 17” wheels, no rain sense wipers, no paddle shifters, and halogen headlights. If those features are important then go for the Touring.
@@terrencebenjamin7241 oh gosh yes I feel stupid. I don’t ever add the T because I knew the EX is turbo automatically but yes you are right and I follow you now. Thank you for replying. And I’m all about saving money where possible too!
@@terrencebenjamin7241 Yes I hate to spend $4k extra but I drive at night and need the LED headlights: people complain the halogens are weak unless you use brights. I need lumbar adjustment in the power seat. I need to see if the touring has that. I don’t need or want heated back seats that come on the touring as well. I may go with a VW Jetta SEL Premium.
@@2004cyrus the Civic EX-T comes with an 8 way power drivers seat. The halogen lamps at night prove plenty sufficient for night time. If you still want LED’s you can add the after market. They are easy to install.
style in and out is good on civic. toyota takes the reliability up a notch though and the powertrain innovation. ...the teardrop shape is what helps that fuel economy probably.
Nice review. The civic seems like it is kinda claustrophobic with those low bucket seats with the center console much higher between them. The Corolla however is almost flat between the two front seats... Thats my only hesitation in deciding between the two. Is the seating position lower with the Honda? Thanks!
I would settle for a Nissan Sentra .. The car is just way too sexy ... Despite it having those CVT's its still better looking in all ways possible than the Civic or Corolla
The only thing I really dislike about my Civic EX are the headlamps. They are terrible, the are dim at night and have an overly warm glow. That is why the have the auto high beam function is on it. When the high beams automatically switch on they look normal brightness.
Civic. I know I'm very late to the chat but Civic definitely. Nissan from what I understand is kinda like the GM of the Japanese car companies. Although they are not as bad as GM.
I'm about to buy an EX or EXL Annoying that the Touring is only one with LED headlights. They look so much better, but I don't want to pay the $3k difference for nav, slightly better stereo.
I’m sure he has but he doesn’t need to explore that on his channel. That just takes a reviewer into a rabbit hole of speculation and he probably wants to keep his reviews simple.
@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow accurate isn’t the word to describe it. If he doesn’t mention the issue then being accurate doesn’t come into relevance. He leaves it out which is smart and they all do.

I would agree that the oil dilution problem would need to be addressed. But not in a car review that talks about a cars features, road performance, and creature comforts. That is more for a pros an cons review or maintenance review. Any good car owner/buyer worth their salt is gonna do some research on the car/SUV/truck they are looking to buy. It's an investment after all, you'd be pretty stupid not to research for yourself before you invest. Plus you don't buy a car and then give it once over to look for any problems you do it either as you buy or before.
Civic is aging very well to what many thought differently when it was released 4 years ago. Stay tuned for the all new 11 th Gen to blow the soon released Elantra away again.
Hyundai’s are better and have surpassed Honda’s the last few years. Honda is not what it used to be with CVT crap and peeling paint and oil dilution issues etc
Moe Anthony Moe , I suspected you’d hit me with that. Yes a couple models have the IVT and so does Kia.. I am aware. Those are much superior to Honda. Just as Gold Pony said the CVT sucks the soul out of the Civic. It’s an awful trend that can’t end soon enough. Honda is falling behind tho and their 9-speed transmissions are awful as well.
Im getting mine tomorrow! Same color and trim too

That interior does not belong to the civic but the Honda Fit, what happened?
Just noticed that too... Oh well that one is coming next 😆
Gold Pony lol
I was so confused lol

I prefer this current Civic genetariont than the Corolla, tbh
Another great review keep it coming!
Thanks!
I was literally just thinking of the civic and corolla like a few minutes ago. 😂
Haha I read your mind! 😁
I love the gray leather so much too Gold Pony!
My 2006 civic sedan has 240K miles. No issues what so ever but I'm starting to wonder if I should start looking at some newer models.......
Same here 🙋♀️I’ve had my 2004 accord for a few years with no problems but it’s starting to feel like it’s time for a newer model lol
Short answer neither the Mazda 3 is the one to get

In honda its really low im 5 foot 11 and in corolla its much higher.
The trade off is Corolla doesn’t have much storage and the civic has tons there

Tino Miller it is gorgeous
How’s it going Tino
Great review!! I love how you starting putting in your final thoughts. Keep up the great work!!
Appreciate it!
Is there a reason why this guy is showing the interior of a honda fit when he is supposed to be showing us the civic?
I prefer the current generation Corolla but this is a great option as well.
The only thing I really dislike about my Civic EX are the headlamps. They are terrible, the are dim at night and have an overly warm glow. That is why the have the auto high beam function is on it. When the high beams automatically switch on they look normal brightness.
That’s my fear with buying a civic tomorrow so I may have to get the Touring model
Would you recommend me buying a Civic right now at the end of April or at the end of May?
That 🚔 4:27 👮♀️ even when not doing anything wrong, we still act more civilized 😂
Idk if Morris garages is in America but it’d be great if you can review those cars
Excellent review. Can you hear the difference between the 8 speakers 180 watts on the EX and the 4 speakers 160 watts on the LX?
Oh I did!
Is the KARR security system worth it?
Is the Honda Civic sedan ex-l better than the Honda Insight ex? For 2020
I really don't like that CVT gear box.
why cant honda just forget chrome trims :(
2020 nissan sentra or honda civic please advice which one is better to buy. Please and thank you
Civic obviously
Civic. I know I'm very late to the chat but Civic definitely. Nissan from what I understand is kinda like the GM of the Japanese car companies. Although they are not as bad as GM.
Its starting to look outdated.... no standard LED headlights... there entire trim levels look the same except the touring ...
I'm about to buy an EX or EXL Annoying that the Touring is only one with LED headlights. They look so much better, but I don't want to pay the $3k difference for nav, slightly better stereo.
@@Thomas-fk3cw at toyota/ led is standard on all trims along with blindspot monitoring
You haven't heard about the Civic 1.5T oil dilution issue?
We all have but he keeps reviews positive.
I’m sure he has but he doesn’t need to explore that on his channel. That just takes a reviewer into a rabbit hole of speculation and he probably wants to keep his reviews simple.

Better get the 2021 Elantra
Why? So the transmission will fail? You better get a Honda!
Civic 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️💘
editing is fucked up
💙🧡💘👍
Only thing I miss so far is lack of beeping with the back-up camera. I park up against a stone wall, and a little beeping (for my wife) would be nice.
I Think this is what I’m getting rid of the 3 series for. I want some Honda reliability.
Civic is aging very well to what many thought differently when it was released 4 years ago. Stay tuned for the all new 11 th Gen to blow the soon released Elantra away again.
