2006 Honda Civic DX-G review from North America
"Exceeds expectations!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The auto unlock on the passenger's side door went, but was replaced under warranty right away by the dealership. This was apparently a common defect for this year and nothing has happened since!
General comments?
I'm thrilled with my Civic! I had an older Civic before purchasing this one and this has exceeded my expectations. Sure, it could go a bit faster or have a bit more guts in some situations, but for everyday use it is perfect. I found the automatic to have a lot less power, but the standard I got solved that problem. I live in BC, so hills and mountains are everywhere!! My Civic climbs them easily, I'm thrilled!
The seats are comfortable and the coupe even has a decent amount of room in the back seats (not for anyone over 6' mind you). Honda takes great care of their customers and I'm very happy overall.
