Just got a 2023 Civic LX.....can afford anything I want, but wanted steel wheels and tires that can take a pothole because the roads are horrible where I live, also wanted the naturally aspirated engine....nice and simple, will outlast a turbo every time.
If that makes you feel better, but the CVT is more likely to give you issues in the life of the vehicle than the 1.5T that has had pretty much all of its problems addressed. Manual transmission with either engine is probably the way to go.
Had a sport Touring for 15 months. 12.000 miles. Really no complaints. I may even like it more as my confidence grows that i made the best choice I could, for our needs and budget. I did drive the Mazda and Toyota and considered Hyundai/kia.
Recently got the 2023 Honda Civic Sport 2.0L, I am happy with this one, glad I did not go with the hatchback, heard they have had some issues with leaking around the back window on the hatchback. Next car will be the Acura Integra 2023-2024...
I just picked up an EX and paid $29K OTD including all taxes and destination. No markup! These high interest rates have slowed sales. Even for Honda. They are eager to move vehicles. Mazda is doing the same. I really wanted a new Prius, but Toyota is not producing enough of those and dealers making crazy markups with them! I will hang on to it for a couple of years and see how I like it. Maybe trade it. Great thing about Honda's, they have great resale value!
Recommend the turbo? The 158hp multi-port engine configuration with the MT is a 30 year / 300,000 mile car. Do you want to go zippy shorter term life of the engine or have a more reliable multi-port that lasts over 3 decades? It's your money.
@@ms.b9093People who take care of their things and don’t waste money. I like how you tried to pigeonhole “professional people” as if they think like you🤣🤣🤣
the last option hatch is my personal choice with manual transmission at $32.345K. the only thing that slows me down is the eye-soaring infotainment screen on the dashboard !! it did the same negative impression with Genesis and Hyundais products. I would option it out if that was possible. unfortunately, it is not
The EX should also have leather seats IMO!!!! Though I have not seen many of these 11th Gen on the road. Definitely have not seen a hatchback out in the wild yet!
Rumor has it that if you put a new Civic side-by-side with the absolutely huge 1976 Cadillac Sedan, the Civic would dwarf the Cadillac...making the Cadillac look like a tiny clown car. Seriously.
The Civic is the same size in length, height and width as the Mazda 3 sedan. However the Civic does appear larger for some reason. It definitely make better use of its interior space. The Mazda is cramped AF in the backseat. Not an issue in the Civic!
If you don't get the Civic Touring (excellent everyday driver) ... Get the Civic Type R (Sports Enthusiast), not the blah Si. ... need more room get an Acura RDX. The Mazda 3 isn't great but could do.
Sticky steering bro wake up on 2022 2023 Civic sedans.... Bad electrical steering mecanism. PERIOD even the NHTSA is aware of this Honda Civic 11th Gen fault...
You’re comparing the exterior to Audi lol they make some of the best looking cars. The new Gen Civics still looks better than the last gens. Those tail lights were hideous 😅
@@samrastagar8554 yes I pay attention to body shapes and Body Lines quite often. And whenever I see a car on the road where I think it is one make of car for a Split Second and find out it is actually a completely different car then that's when I make the occasional comment. Yes, haha, they are definitely different kind of cars with quality and performance etcetera that was just referring to the profile of the car

You made the correct choice. Avoid the turbo as they already are reporting problems with it.

Sport touring hatchback 2023❤

What made you get rid of the Sport Touring?
you crashed the car right

Too bad all the dealerships are screwing customers over. Expect to be paying way more.
It's 45k in Aus for baseline 🤔
Find a dealer network that doesn’t mark up. They exist. Just harder to find these days.
Yeah I payed 30 for a sport
true! honda ex 23 ill be paying 40k in total for 7yrs lol

Sport touring hatchback manual / standard transmission for sure. The si would have been perfect if they didn’t short it on a ton of feautures.

It's your money.
Who the hell keeps a car for 30 years? Not professional people!
@@ms.b9093 I do, have a 24 year old car with 287,000 miles. I have a "professional" job.
@@ms.b9093smart people do, as long as it lasts and doesnt start costing you money

Glad someone can afford these.

amazing video very informative and straightforward
TT-ABC sells Led headlight assembly, Led taillight assembly suitable for 2016-2022 Honda Civic. And supports customized research and development.
I would be happy with almost any of them depending on where I set my expectations. That said, the Si is probably the one for me.
@@JB-jr3bm I don’t think you meant to post that as a reply to me.
I want a civic since they save so much gas
Is there a trim that offers leather seats without a turbo?
how are the Civics in the snow? Trading in my Honda Odyssey which is terrible in the snow.
At that point get a truck that’s 4 wheel drive If your looking a small car get a awd Camry
The EX should also have leather seats IMO!!!! Though I have not seen many of these 11th Gen on the road. Definitely have not seen a hatchback out in the wild yet!
Got the touring im in love with it not really a fan of the hatchback
Where does the RS fits it?
The LX doesn't have alloy wheels
The hatchback LX does
Psh difference between si and sport is what I came for
How about the Si and Type R?
Did you even watch the freaking video?
@@DubcatcherAmazing ??? Was it Freaky???
Are these prices US or CAD
US
Primary complaint with EX/EX-L is the homely looking wheels!
No leather seats in the EX is my complaint!
They grew on me. Seeing so many Sports and Sport Tourings in my area makes them unique.
You missed a detail. The tourings get digital dash
The turbo has some problems I’ll take the 2.0
What problems?
Is it a VTEC
Rumor has it that if you put a new Civic side-by-side with the absolutely huge 1976 Cadillac Sedan, the Civic would dwarf the Cadillac...making the Cadillac look like a tiny clown car. Seriously.
You're obviously being silly making up stuff here. Yeah, the Honda is a nice car but the old Cadillac in question is the bigger car in comparison.
Lol. The Civic sedan IS about 5 inches longer than a 1982 Cadillac Cimarron sedan. Remember those?
The Civic is the same size in length, height and width as the Mazda 3 sedan. However the Civic does appear larger for some reason. It definitely make better use of its interior space. The Mazda is cramped AF in the backseat. Not an issue in the Civic!
U really skipped sport trim
It's at 1:34 in the video
This skipped on a important aspect is the digital guage display lol
You forgot the Si and the Type R
They were clearly mentioned in the first part of the video.
I buy it
Only 180 hp? No thanks. There's others out there sub 25k with over 200 hp.
Please provide a couple of examples.
What?
YES! AMERICAN GREED!!!
Nah fam, Sport Touring is the only way to go!!
You would not believe the price of these in Canada ... ugh!
If the prices are so high there then why do folks buy them?
I need a two door civic.
If you don't get the Civic Touring (excellent everyday driver) ... Get the Civic Type R (Sports Enthusiast), not the blah Si. ... need more room get an Acura RDX. The Mazda 3 isn't great but could do.
I cannot explain how much I hate the hatchback body style
Its more of a Euro sportback! I do like the tail light set up tho!
Don’t like the black wheels or sunroof.

No No No 1.5 Liter is too small.
Then go with the 2.0 liter engine.
Way overpriced 😢😢😢
I got my for $40,000 My bad!! but I love it. Plan on keeping it till the end.
@@irenemanuel4217 oo which trim you have
I got the sport touring hatchback 2023. I know I paid too much🤮
@@irenemanuel4217 oo by the way nice car and yeah 👍
@@RamBatra-uu8wj I fell in love with the color of the civic. The color is call Smokey mauve (purple) which is limited.
I'm shocked that people like this Accord look. It is so boring. And 4 doors? Why not just buy an Accord? Nothing about this, price, looks, says Civic.
Its very Audi imo!
All overpriced!
honda is like sony with ps5 , they know there better
Honda is mostly crap now . Horrible service in their deals too . Run !!!!
So they basically made the four-door Civic look like a slightly older Audi. Disappointing. Honda has never been creative with body styles.
You’re comparing the exterior to Audi lol they make some of the best looking cars. The new Gen Civics still looks better than the last gens. Those tail lights were hideous 😅

Hated the Anime 10th Gen! So ugly! Especially the hatch!
10k over the price for a 2024 civic sport
