The civic has excellent fuel economy. When gas got over 3 dollars a gallon I was feeling it a lot less than all those peopel who bought gas guzzlers!
I have been driving for nearly 5 years now and not a single problem with the quality of the car
For a budget car like this and something that is so low to the ground the ride is surprisingly smooth. To be sure there are much smoother rides but this was better than expected.
The car was well built and they paid attention to detail. It is almost unpleasant to drive other cars because mine is so well designed.
