2009 Honda Civic Sedan LX 5-Spd AT

Pros

room, fuel economy, easy to drive

Cons

dashboard, acceleration

Purchased As New

Just about the ideal car for its class so don't expect much luxury nor sport, just a car to take you from A to B with ease and no hassle. This is an economy car and that's what you get. But it is put together rather nicely. Exerior is more stylish than most in its class though can't say that for the dash which is just horrid. It rides comfortably and it's easy to drive. As expected, fuel economy is excellent and you get quite a bit for what you pay. Compared to the Corolla which I spent a week in as a rental, the Civic feels roomier and if the Civic feels like an economy car, the Corolla feels several notches below, whatever that may be. But the Civic drives better, and seems to be more car than the Corolla.

If you want a simple means of transportation that's easy to own and offers some good advantages over others in its class and you can get past the horrible dashboard, the Civic is a great choice.
