2006 Honda Civic LX review from North America
"Not perfect, but certainly the Best Choice in its class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. Except the manual transmission / clutch might have a problem.
General comments?
I really like the car, the style, the driving compared to what I had before, but I expected a little bit more from Honda. I feel like it's hard to change gears sometimes. The clutch is not has "quick" has the other manual cars I've driven before. Usually I can switch speed pretty fast, but with this one I have to do it smoothly. I guess I'll get used to it! Other than that, I really like the style, the steering wheel response and the performance is good if we compare to other cars in its class.
