2008 Honda Civic EX review from North America
"Awsome reliability, but boring to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just maintenance. I had to replace all four brakes at 30k.
General comments?
Switching from park to drive, the car jerks sometimes, and starting the car, I get a slow crank that sounds like the battery is dying, so I have to turn the key half way for a few seconds and then start it. The car is awesome on gas, but not as fun to drive. It's basically a plain economical car.
