What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Honda Civic
| Price of the Honda Civic: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
While not the bargain they once were, Honda still offers good value for the money. Maintenance costs are relatively low as well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
honda lease rate is very good |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
I got good interest rates from Honda. They also paid off the remainder of my lease on my Ford Ranger so I could trade it in 2 months early. There are also many options available on a lease. Overall it was cheaper than a similar Toyota Corolla. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
It is the "fastest" car under $20k and very fun to drive for the price. You do not feel like you are driving an "economy" car. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Not expensive for what you get. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Overall total cost of ownership was far less than other sporty models, to the tune of over $1200/year, before even considering the lower price and less depreciation. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
My Civic was reasonably priced and monthly payments are easy on the budget. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Cheap. Got it used from dealer for 16,000 w/only 3,000 miles on it. |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 127-horsepower 1.7L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Lots of bang for what we paid. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
This car was within my price range for monthly payments. |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
A comparable Civic is about $5,000 more than the Forte. Interest rates for 5 year plans were also higher. |
| 2009 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
too expensive |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
good sales people but not much in the way of discounts or coming off the sticker or dealing ,at sticker they make at least 1500 per car and they dont really want to deal any off the sticker and say they will sell eventually |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Too pricey for what you get. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
You can expect to pay somewhat of a premium for the name, compared to other cars of similar features/economy. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
price of 20 k Euro a little too high |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
to expensive at 20,200 Euros |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It costs more, with less to offer, than the Scion tC ... unless you can haggle them down on the price. And good luck with that at a Honda dealer. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Civic is a good vehicle overall, but Honda name commands a higher price with few cutting edge features by comparison to usual (Toyota/ VW /Mazda) and not so common (Hyundai / Kia / Pontiac) rivals. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
In order to get the features that were comparable to the Elantra I had to at least get the LX model. It would have cost me close to $5,000-7,000 more to get an LX civic coupe versus the final cost of my Elantra. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price was non-negotiable in 2006 it should be better in the current economy. |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
No room for bargaining, and the car was $4000 more than the Protege. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Have a high resale value, so it might not be on the top of the list when buying used. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 93-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid 5-speed manual FWD |
Do not buy a hybrid if you want to save money. It will cost you more than an LX Civic, even in the long run. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 127-horsepower 1.7L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
too high |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan Versa
| Price of the Nissan Versa: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
With the $2K incentive, I got a useful, comfortable hatchback for about $12K, everything included. |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 107-horsepower 1.6L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I was looking for the most inexpensive car I could find. We paid $11,700 with TTL after a $500 tradein with payments of $218 a month. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
We got my Versa for 11,000 plus T.T.T. Total was about 12,800. The MSRP for mine was 13,100 + T.T.T. + 95 for floor mats + 750 for the road hazard contract (nitrogen in tires) + 750 for destination and handling. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Dirt cheap |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
affordable!! |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Paid $12,600 for 2008 Versa 4 Cylinder Manual with the only upgrade being cruise control. Great price for a brand new car. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
Insurance is low. Price of vehical was low to buy. Low intrest rate for 5 years = low payments. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Lots of features for the money you pay. I paid $12,908 before tax and I got the 1.8S manual, power package, ABS, kickplates, floormats and a couple of other things. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
The price was very reasonable, and not because my brother was the salesperson. (one reason we bought it though, other is my wife liked it better than Fit, which I would have preferred for superior reliability.) |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
new car for nearly the same price as some used cars I was looking at |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
not much. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
The V fit my budget nicely . . . and the interest rate offered was a bonus. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It is a relatively cheap car overall, and definitely in its class of vehicle. A value, for sure. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It was far less expencive than others in its class. And came with more features than anyone else. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Reasonable price for the available options, plus a supplier discount from my employer. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Less than $500 a month for 2 new cars, which also includes dealer maintenance and extended warrantee. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Under $20,000 no contest |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
It was one of the cheapest cars in its class. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The competition when I was buying this was the Toyota Yaris, and this car was quite a bit less than the Yaris with AC, automatic transmission, and power locks/windows, etc., even when you counted in the government grant for $1000 for the Yaris. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Reasonably low priced given the available features. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Low price and you get a heck of a lot more than from a civic or Fit. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
When we purchased the Versa we compared it with the Fit, the Yaris and several other small hatch backs. There are other models that may be cheaper or get slightly better gas mileage, but considering all the variables the Versa wins hands down. |
| Price of the Nissan Versa: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 107-horsepower 1.6L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
It was around 2000$ more than the Yaris with less features than come with my Yaris. The payments were more. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 122-horsepower 1.8L I4 CVT FWD |
New cars from Nissan were overall slightly higher than other models we looked at, with no bargaining room. |
