It's all relative... I test drove the Civic Hybrid today and was quite impressed for what it was. Point of reference, I've been autocrossing and tracking for about 10+ years in Preludes, RSXs, S2000s, etc.
For the driving that most people do, the Civic actually handles and feels like a much more expensive and substantial car - when driven up to about 5/10ths. When pushed to the limit, it obviously has the traits of a typical front wheel drive car with economy minded (read: low grip) tires.

Did you test it well on corners?
