Goodbye Civic



After living with two cars for over 6 months, it was finally time to sell the civic. Since I´m moving and paying a higher rent I´d rather sell the civic and pay my other loan...

The new owner is picking up the car on friday and I´m trying to stay away from it as much as possible (you know putting some distance preparing for the final goodbye)

Overall I consider myself quite a pleased owner with the civic. In two years never had a single problem, love the looks of the car with the rims, excellent gas mileage and excellent dealer service (and cheap). Only issue was the rubbery extremely soft suspension.

This was my first Honda and definitely sold to the brand.

My other car ("new" after 6 months) is a Mini Cooper, red with a white roof and hood stripes.

Thanks all for the information, the site has really been useful and entertaining.

Nope, I got the regular Cooper, but I have driven the S on several occasions. Both cars are a blast to drive. The Cooper S is faster but it won´t take your breath.

Where the Civic gets its but kicked is in handling and suspension. The Cooper is an amazing piece of engineering in terms of handling. Power on the regular Cooper and the EX always felt about the same, but the Mini is lighter.

I´ll certainly miss the Civic. Just took it for its last drive, new owner will pick it up later today.
