At first sight, the Civic EX L presents a handsome, sophisticated vehicle with great lines. Inside the luxury continues with leather seating surfaces as well as a leather wrapped steering wheel. The moon roof adds an additional positive feature. Front heated seats put the finishing touch to a conservative yet sporty interior. Performance is strong as well. There is ample power whenever it is needed but it never hurts overall fuel economy, The sound system is great and is user friendly. On daily commutes (to and from work on mixed traffic routes) the Civic easily attains 32 plus miles per gallon. This is without utilizing the econ button, which would provide even better MPG. The front bucket seats are comfortable and supportive. They would be at home in a more expensive automobile. They offer the a nice level of adjustments. The rear seat space boasts a center armrest. The are a significant number of small storage areas in the forms of door bins, center front console bins, front center armrest storage space, and a glove compartment. Trunk space is not bad for a compact car. It can be expanded by fold down back seat backs. Finally, compared with many cars being manufactured today (with small greenhouses, large support pillars, rakish designs, etc...), I found this one provides the driver with a commanding view of the road.

I have driven Hondas for at least 25 years now, and have owned both accords and civics. I like Hondas for a lot of reasons, particularly the way they handle. This 2013 civic handles well like all of my other Hondas. This car is very good looking. I have the dark gray and it looks so nice with all of the shiny silver trim this model has. Mine is the EX, so it has the nice looking larger wheels, which improve the overall appearance of the car. This car has performed well with routine maintenance.
