2008 Honda Civic LX Sedan review from North America
"Honda's compact car secret that is as loyal as a loyal friend"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No problems at all.
General comments?
This is our 8th Honda Civic. We had: a 1980, a 1984, a 1988, a 1992, a 1996, a 2000, a 2004, and now this one. All of them were sedans, including this one, and all had/or have automatic transmissions.
As far as this one is concerned, we absolutely love it to death! The dealership that we have been dealing with since we got the 1980 model knows us by name. We got treated great when we got our 2008. It was love at first sight when we saw this one. Many people that we know have this version and are proud to say that they love their Civics.
The interior is as impressive as the outside.
It rides beautifully and handles the same.
Gas mileage? Need we go further? It is great!!!
The reason why we have such a loyal fan of the Honda Civic for such a long time is simple. They are great cars that speak for themselves. Tons of Honda Civics are still roaming the roads to this very day. Why? Cause they are great cars.
So if you are in the market for this version of the Honda Civic, please pay a visit to your nearest Honda dealer and take one of these for a test drive. You will fall in love with it and be a loyal fan like we are. They make perfect first cars for the first time drivers. And they will run forever. Basically, they are like a truly loyal friend.
