Honda Civic (2005-2010) for Sale near Owen Sound, ON

Love the new body style same great gas mileage the comfort of the seats the reality of a Honda badge also love the visibility of a glass house roomy interior seats five comfortably

The car is great, it was clean, very low miles and has great gas mileage

This car hasn't had a repair performed in 7 years and 70k of mixed driving. If this car had more road noise isolation it would be perfect. Easy ingress-egress, the driving position is great, controls are simple and well placed. Power is ok but at 38-40 mpg highway driving it strikes the perfect balance. It is as solid, rattle and squeak free as the day it was delivered. Handling is excellent. The interior is designed with high quality materials. The leather seats look new. I paid $23K for this car new and it's worth $10 to 11K today. For a small economical car I find it difficult to believe there's anything better.

great acceleration, gotta love the k20z3 with the 6 speed...great combination. Excellent first car. Braking is superior, no repairs needed, no rattles, interior is nicely crafted as long as exterior...car could be a little lower say about another inch lower. Cost is great. Fun as anything to whip around with especially with the sport tires. Grip like no other.

I had researched several different vehicles in this before purchasing this one right off the truck. Alternatives were the Toyota Yaris, Nissan Versa, Nissan Altima, Pontiac G5, VW Golf, Toyota Corolla, and the Toyota Matrix. All of these are fine in their own ways but none can quite compare to the Civic outside of the Golf. The Civic has better handling on sharper corners, an example of this, there is a certain corner that I take that the entry speed is 55 in the other cars, the Golfs was 60 and the Civic was able to do it flat at 72 mph. Acceleration is a bit lacking though and it feels as though it could do better but is just not quite tuned right. The interior is roomy, I am six foot five and can fit in it comfortably... the one complain I have is that the handbrake pokes into my leg if I lean it there. Fuel economy is excellent though. I have been able to get well over 40 mpg traveling on the highway at 72 mph. In town it is cut back a bit to around 30 mpg due to stopping and going and passing. The car is fairly light on its feet but provides good traction in rainy weather. I will say that it does not do well in snow and ice; where I was only able to do 25 mph, other cars were passing me by at 45. Some people don't like the digital speedometer/fuel gauge but I have come to prefer it, it is strategically placed in my line of sight and I can easily concentrate on my speed as well as the road ahead. I dislike the fact the the front pillars come forward so far as to obstruct my view when taking a corner and the road noise can be a bit pronounced. I do like the looks of the car although they are a bit French and reflect a lot you would see in a Citroen. I have put nearly thirty thousand miles on it in the past year and it has not been in the shop one time. The top speed is supposedly limited to 125 mph but I have seen my speedometer at 138 which is not bad at all for a four cylinder car.
