2011 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Rear seat was a bit tight for adults, in hindsight we should have bought the Accord. see full Honda Civic review |

2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 260hp 2.3L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |

Extremely comfortable and supportive. air-cooled seat option is great in the summer. Front seat ergonomics and comfort blow away those of bmw, infiniti and acura, although leather quality is not as good. see full Saab 9-5 review |
