"Eats Civic Coupes for breakfast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield cracked along the bottom after defrosting in -10 C weather.
Hatch won't stay open in subzero weather.
Seats are less than comfortable on long trips.
Interior plastic trim scratches too easily.
Large blind spots.
General comments?
Nice ride.. bit slow from a dead stop though.
Very precise steering & braking.
Good after-sales service.
Super-cheap on gas.
