Stand Proud!!! What do you like the most about your Civic?

Since the 7th generation Civic is always getting flamed by design/engineering dislikes, what are some aspects you like the most about your ride? I will start...

1). Front-end design... the cat-eyed headlamps... unique appearance
2). OEM body kit
3). Side profile... looks sleek!
4). Dash layout... even though it is simple... still looks good

hey, saved my life when I was hit and spinning 360. I came out without a scratch (well a lil one on my left arm) but better than a shatter one, side air bag helped.

I like the fact that it's sleek, reliable, and all around good transportation. But it's funny how many people who know nothing about cars think it's fast [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] .

- the body
- the backseat with no hump
- the gas mileage
- the cd holder (i love that!)
- the dash layout (simple and clean)
- the heated mirrors (i live in winter 6 months of the year)
- the fact it warms up fast (i live in winter 6 months of the year )
- the trunk space
- the option to have only the back interior light on or off

I love my car, best one i've owned. It could be faster but I didnt buy a civic to race

I like how it comes with a lot of features that are just convinient. flat floor, huge trunk, i love how comfy the seats are, tilt steering came in my dx, remote trunk open inside the car...these are things that are just great for functionality, and some of you might think they're nothing, but toyota, for one, makes you buy the most expensive corolla if you want some of the same features. toyota never puts fold down rear seats in the base model cars..once again, i got them in my dx..i love my 2k2 civic.

Where is that! I thought I was without one. That is the one thing that I missed when I got rid of my Trans Am.

to me its no longer a civic, because its not so small, its not so slow and its more like a mini accord, the interior is not cheap looking at all, especially when u compare it to a sunfire or a cavalier...
the coin pocket is under the sunroof,. power mirros, cruise control switch, you have to pull it...
how can u not find something so simple???

and yea i love how smooth the tranny is, but they are the worst trannys ever, i know a bunch of guys at honda, and they will all tell me, my car has 14 000 km on it, and i swear its starting to give me problems, my friend had the same thing! they are crappy quality, tranny and engine! honda mechanics call it the "LAZY ENGINE"
