Hondas are so great. Anyone who thinks otherwise probably drives a shitty car.

Driving a Civic while not Asian should be a felony
EDIT: As should driving one while being asian

I'm fine with the look of the Civic coupe, but the sedan just looks awkward.

Actually this means you don't have to divert you're eyes away from the road as much to view the mph, and the large tachometer lets you get a general idea of your rpm without diverting your attention away as much.
Anyone who has a Honda Civic as their dreamcar certainly has low aspirations in life, but I don't see why you people are all so quick to bash the Civic, for it's class and price range it's a very well built and reliable vehicle, and it certainly competes quite well in the style and performance categories against it's american comepetitors of say, a Ford Focus or Chevy Cavalier.

I'm looking at getting a car in this price range, but I'm looking more into a Volkswagen. I hear those Mk V Jettas drive really nicely.
My other question: Why do you need a big-ass tach on a car with an automatic? I can understand with a manual tranny (though my manual doesn't include a tach), but why with an auto? Annoying.

I was going to make the same correction, until i looked at a new camry

They do look very similar, although neither is very disitinctive or unique in it's own right.
When it comes to a civic I care about how well the car is built, as the reason I would buy a civic is to save money
If they are as well built as they have been before then it's a good car, I don't think how it looks matters much

Personally, I don't like VW for a few reasons.
1. I have some weird bias where I think of them as a chick car
2. They spend a lot of time in the shop
3. They are overpriced as if they are a luxury, but aren't any better than your standard car. They don't get the same respect as the big 3 german automakers.
Of course, most of this probably comes from my sister owning a shitty jetta and it spending alot of time broken down because she doesn't know how to drive well. I know nothing of how nice they are to drive.
I agree with the tachomoeter on an automatic, very confusing and unneccesary. My friend used to have an old truck that was a standard with no tachomoeter, I don't how he lived with it.

Meh. I used to spend a LOT of time around Camrys, but I still don't think that the new Civic looks much like the Camry at all. I dunno.

You just get used to it. Nowadays when I drive a stick with a tach, I barely look at it. I've been driving this same truck for 6 years now, and it's the first vehicle I've ever owned. I don't know much different.

E90. Hell yeah. My bud just got a 2006 BMW 325i (6-speed manual of course), and I'm in love with that thing. Best 3-series ever, and I've driven every model of it except the E21.

My grandparents went to Germany in 1981 and decided to bring back a 320i (that my dad still drives). BMWs kinda run in my family /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

The only similarity is the sloping from the roof to the back. The Audi's windshield rises up at a pretty distinct angle.

A nice gallery of the sedan can be found here (http://www.vtec.net/articles/view-article?article_id=396471).
I will picking up mine late next week/early the week after depending on when the first shipment arrives here in Los Angeles.

The brown people you see driving those cars are "ASIAN". You may think of them as "Orientals". Mexicans drive busted old pickups and mid 70s Chevys.
I loved my 91 Civic, if I ever get another car, I'm looking in that direction.
