my old shitbox is a honda civic

>>17794058
It looks like origami Japanese trash

>>17794101
came here to post this.

>>17794058
You do realize a civic can also be an old shitbox, right?
Also this car was way better in it's shitbox form, unless you're talking about the si trim, then it's arguable.
Also ugly.

is the NA 2.0 in the new civic gud or nah. im not getting a turbo car for a DD

>>17794122
It's Honda so it's probably good. When I went to the local dealer though they only had one NA 2.0 on the lot; everything else was the 1.5.

>not getting a turbo car for a DD
Why? It's powerful enough to be fun and still gets almost 40mpg.

>>17794058
Mazda 6 is a million times better

>honda
>not pre-2000

Early 2000s Honda was fine other than their really down market offerings.

I had a 2001 civic ex that I absolutely abused for over 250,000 miles with no problems at all
>those hektik handbrake skids in 2 feet of snow
>oh how I miss that car

I plan on getting the 2018 civic lx hatch 6MT soon. Is this a reliable choice? I've had a shitbox volvo s40 for 3 years now and I'm tired of the expensive repairs/shitty transmission problems its had.

>>17795664
EDIT: I also work at the dealership that i'll be getting the vehicle at.

8th Gen was the last good Civic

I have a 2014 Si

>>17794058
3k civic with a couple of simple mods > 2017 Type-R

Looking for an EX or EX T at the right price. Test drove the EX T 1.5 turbo with my waifu, the turbo is fucking sweet. Personally I hate hondas high revving low torque bullshit, the new civic is the opposite. Globs or low end torque. She thought it was fast, and it surprised me too. I wouldnt pay money for the gay ass 2.0L though.

Coupe was nice bur why hinder yourself with a useless backseat. Going sedan for sure.

>>17795856
Bro seriously stop with meme.
I ownd 3 si from 6, 7, and 8th gen.
8th gen was awesome, they out performed rsx-s with LSD and cheaper price. 9th gen was Honda trying to please you assholes crying about torque. 10th gen si and whole civic line up is best ever.
Go test drive new si and see for your self. Stock for stock mod for mod new gen is new king. Get over it

>>17794058
My 2009 Mazda 6 is better. Checkmate, cuck.

>>17796442
Top of the line 2009 Mazda 6 is worth less than a 2009 Accord base model.

Decade old Mazda 3 is rusted apart when the Civic is on its 4th owner and zero rust.

Zoom zoom blol

it is a pretty good car, its nearly the size of a midsize car, isn't a hybrid or a diesel, doesn't require premium unless you get the turbo, and still gets 40mpg on the highway. it'd be even more perfect if it came in a wagon variant

not to mention its fucking awesome for roadtrips, which is why there should be a wagon variant, that way people can bring their camping shit or dogs or dead bodies

I already have a Civic coupe though

>>17794058

But my old shitbox IS a honda civic

>>17794122
The turbo 1.5 is better

>>17795664
>>17795673
The hatches all come with the turbo engines right? Should be a solid daily driver

No it isn't. Watch me destroy your argument with one word.

Depreciation.

>>17796607
That's the new Mustang though

>>17796631
Pointless if you plan on keeping your car for a while

>>17796631
>bus passes don't depreciate, therefore buses are the ultimate form of transportation

SLOWER THAN A JZX100

and 120 hours in paint the civic coupe can be made into a modern crx

How much would it take to unrice the new R?

>>17796596
The turbo doesn't need premium, though you could use it if you really want that extra 2hp

>>17796653
Almost the cost of another base model Civic, and you'll end up with a car starving for air, overheating, and with shit aerodynamics

121 hours in paint

It's a pretty good car, but it's like £25-40K. Basically every 2016 and up £25K+ new car is going to be pretty good.

>>17796637
Dunno bro, my bus pass for August seems to have depreciated recently.

>>17794058
But anon, I have a slightly older Civic. Why would I waste money on a new one, even if it is nice AF.

Also, NA>Turbo

>>17794129
Don't know how it is there, but here you can order the car in a trim and have it made and delivered for you.

>>17794122
It's good, but it had some issues around launch. They should be sorted out by now. The 1.5T is great from what I hear, and can run 87. Synthetic oil is mandatory tho

>>17794058
Except I will dispute this. The Civic is no better or worse than a Cruze. It's just different looking. It's like the Focus and the Forte, 1s only slightly better than the other.

>>17796922
Haha what, the Cruze has a fucking disgusting interior. Hollow thin plastics everywhere and $20 futon material for the seats.

>>17796922
Except my Focus cost $13k when I got it, and now its worth maybe $5k cause Ford reputation. Kia Rio has better resale value. You can buy a Cruze, Ill try a Jap box. Pretty sure the Hondo will be worth more come the day we sell it. Id rather come up with more money in the future. I like how the Cruze hatches look, although a little boring/ reserved... Diesel would be sweet.

>>17796955
Didn't really feel too different from the Focus I was in a few weeks ago. Maybe it's just yank stuff.

Its perfect as is
Dont do it!

>>17796856
While Synthetic oil costs more, it has longer intervals. A lot of newer cars have $100 oil changes every 10,000 miles instead of $30 oil changes every 3,000. Its convenient too.

can honda give us gold badges again and dark green cars?

nothing said you made it in the 90s like a dark green or black accord with gold badges

>>17796979
There's like no reason to not use synthetic when there's always jugs on sale for $20-25

>>17796993
Hahaahha

>>17796922
Having driven a Cruze and a Prius for my driver's course, I'd gladly take the Prius any day. The Cruze is an abysmal car. Wouldn't go anywhere near red line (auto, obviously), had the cheapest interior I've ever seen (and I owned a 95 Civic), and steering wheel was a plastic piece of dead shit.

The Prius was way better. A. Fucking. Prius

>>17796962
What year is your focus? My 09 Civic was worth 10k last year before being butt fucked by a hail storm. Still worth at least 4k, and with 125k I'm on it.

Also, if you want to keep value, gotta get work done at the dealership

>>17796979
I use synthetic in mine as well. I get a small discount on it from work, but I still change it every 8000km. Better safe than sorry (winters are harsh here, so it makes sense to do so)

>>17796631
Yet hondas are like the top cars that barely decrease in value, dumbshit.
