Good daily drivers?
Go FA5. It's the /o/fficial car for a reason. Coupe is barely lighter and less useful.
>>15007587
Civic sedans look like shit tho, too much faggy chrome and overall disproportional looking with awful wheel gaps
>>15007576
Shitty modern car design, sohc engine until recently
>>15007611
Tf are you talked about. Also it's implied you slam your civic. Second I drove mine home from the dealer I chopped the springs.
>>15007616
I wouldnt slam it. I'd leave it stock suspension, 16 inch, swap the stock wheels for last gen 16 inch just like in the pic. I'd rather have good ride comfort and better mileage for a daily driver. Still deciding between manual and cvt since I hear Civic manuals are excellent
>>15007683
I think 8th gen EX wheels are clean.
>>15007576
Depends on what you mean by good. They are very reliable. Driving "feel" is ok, as long as you view it in the context of other cheap entry-level cars.
tl;dr: "Good daily" - definitely. As long as by daily, you mean commuting.

Enjoy that slow laggy touch screen infotainment screen with no volume knob
>>15008751
You mean the new one? It uses Android Auto and Apple Careplay wich are both fast as fuck
And it has a volume wheel on the steering instead of buttons
>>15007683
>heard civic manuals are excellent
can confirm own 9th gen 5 speed
I dd an 08 Ex-l with a 5speed manual, It's a pretty decent little car and I haven't had trouble fitting anything it in yet.
I still don't get why usa didn't have the superior euro design for the civic
>>15010313
Ugly af senpai
>>15007683
Honda generally makes great manuals
>>15007576
I've got an '05 EX Coupe (special edition)
I daily drive it in Houston, and for a while, I was driving from College Station to Houston every single day in it.
So far, I've had some pretty big repairs, but the car is over a decade old and was missing some maintenance items like the timing belt.
Solid manual trans, I may be due for a clutch replacement.
Pic related.
There are much better cars in this category/price bracket.
For fucks sake it uses a SOHC inline 4.

>Buying a poverty spec with an R series and not a K series
>>15010509
Then name better alternatives that match its reliability
I know you won't respond since you're a shitposter but I'll wait here.
>>15010509
I bet you think pushrods are bad too
>>15010540
A 5k civic is just as good as a newer one. They're both boring appliances. Get something interesting or gtfo.
>>15010585
>Buy something that I'll validate as acceptable or gtfo
Yes like I care what some stranger on a Serbian woodcrafting board thinks
>>15010540
Mazda 3.
Toyota Corolla.
Ford Focus.
Nissan Sentra.
Civic isnt really more reliable than any of those.
>>15010555
Not really, the point of pushrods is that its cheap for the performance.
A SOHC Civic isnt any cheape than its superior DOHC competitors.

Who cares really.
But its just stupid to buy an inferior product because of a so called reliability reputation that may or may not exist.

Civics are made to be daily drivers. Its one of the best shitboxes out there.

I guess Toyota is best car yet again
Thanks for your vote, anon
>>15011076
Why get a boring, reliable Toyota when you can get a less boring and just as reliable Honda?
Corolla interiors are utter garbage as well, a 2013 felt like it came straight out of 2003
>>15011023
I DD a Boxster and still think the Speed6 is a terrible car to drive every day
Last guy I saw that was trying to get rid of his straight up put in his ad that he's selling it because of how much of a piece of shit it is
>>15011111
Maybe it is a piece of shit, but the post was implying its some car thats hard to DD for being some high performance car.
Pic related are my DDs when it isnt winter.
>>15011128
I figured the "glass AWD" comment was enough to hint that it's a piece of shit
best
My SRT4 is a pretty fun daily.
So please buy it from me.
>>15011102
>a 2013 felt like it came straight out of 2003
That's exactly what makes their interiors good, faggot. New car interiors are generally awful.
>>15011176
Are you a senior citizen?
>>15011176
Meanwhile the 2015s look like modern cars but are still using horrendously cheap materials
Seriously, a Mazda 3 felt more higher end than the new Corolla

>interior fags are the worst.
>>15011197
You spend most of your time with your car sitting inside it, of course the interior is important you retard
>>15011188
Why do you care about materials? Are you constantly touching the dashboard like some autist? It has padding where your arms rest, knobs feel good and instrumentation is clear and legible.
You can complain all you want but the Corolla literally outsells the Mazda 3 10:1
>>15011204
Sure, but
>engineering
>performance
>mpgs
>reliability
>exterior styling
Are all more important
I know I'm a little late, but I haven't had any issues with my 2013 coupe. It makes a great DD and the 6 speed transmission shifts like butter.
Pic related, my 2013 Si Coupe.
>>15011207
People are idiots, that's no surprise
But why the fuck would I pay all that money to get plastic molded to look like leather stitching when I can get actual stitching for the same price?
>>15011225
That is literally autism. You're in a fucking compact car and you'd pay more just for "le real stitching". Probably the most cringe post I've seen all day.
>>15011225
>b-b-but muh stitching
>>15011215
Yeah and the Corollas competitors match and can beat it in all those categories
>>15011231
>same price
>somehow pay more
Nice reading comprehension
I can't believe [people on /o/ are actually defending a fucking Corolla when there are so many better options out there for the same price in the same market segment
>>15011239
Except they aren't better in the long run. A Corollas goal in life is to provide comfortable, fuel efficient and long lasting reliable transportation. Its also the roomiest in its class. None of its competitors cam claim to be as fuel efficient, easy to work on, AND as reliable.
Oh and they hold their value better than anything in its class.
>>15011235
>he thinks im talking about the corolla
I was calling out you fags for crying about interiors in general.
>>15011239
>I can't believe [people on /o/ are actually defending a fucking Corolla when there are so many better options out there for the same price in the same market segment

>>15011254
Jesus tap dancing Christ you sound like a Toyota salesman
>>15011270
I was thinking Civic but okay there bud, whatever helps you sleep at night
>>15011278
Walk into any Toyota dealership and compare it with any Mazda or Nissan dealership. The cars sell themselves, those places are always busy. You walk into a Mazda dealership and the salesman will practically suck your dick to sell his stock
>>15010313
*vomits internally*
>>15011289
I already compared the Corolla to the Civic and Mazda 3 at an auto show, it's really lacking. But sadly people exist in this world who would only buy Toyotas without doing any cross shopping
Funny enough at the auto show the only people at the Toyota section were seniors
>>15011313
You can't blame those people, Toyotas are generally trouble free and overall good cars mechanically speaking. Super easy to work on too.
It'd be a different story if people kept buying shitty cars like Ford or Chrysler without cross shopping
>>15011331
>implying Toyota shoppers work on their own cars
I just hate brand loyalty in general
>>15011003
OEM suspension + a bigger rear sway bar and better tires
