Well, I bought a 2014 Q60 AWD to replace my 2016 GTI.
As I expected, on a Honda forum, fanbois will always, no matter what car, defend a Honda using "cost of ownership" calculations.
Even if you can tune a 1.5T into being competitive on paper, you can never tune-out the FWD. I paid $20.9k for...
Last night my wife and I test drove:
2018 Civic Si
2018 Sport Hatch (base)
2018 Accord 2.0T 6MT
And my impression is, "WTH Honda!??!?" Why the heck did you guys put the 2.0T into the Accord, but not the Si?!?!? The difference in performance between the Accord 2.0T and Si is mind-boggling...
Cheng,
My wife and I drove a Sport Hatch, Civic Si and Accord 2.0T 6MT last night. And I drove the G37x again.
My opinion, the 1.5T is way too underpowered when considered against anything with sporting intentions. After driving so many cars, I couldn't even imagine wanting to own a 1.5T...
Structural damage would be apparent from a visual inspection, no reason to think this is voodoo science or something. If your car was hit hard enough for structural damage, something on the exterior wouldn't be lined up right. I used to work in a body shop, I have seen wrecked cars that were...
I'm just so quick to call out your assertion because Honda fanbois will scan this thread to bash anything non-Honda and soon the thread will devolve into how stupid it is to compare an LS460 to a Civic.
I believe we have 3 newer G37s 6MT coupes for sale up here in WA State, I found them on CL and Autotrader. I believe they are all lower miles with Navigation also. I was seriously tempted, but traffic in the PNW and my wife insist that I get an AT car.
IIRC all 3 G37 6MT coupes are below $20k...
Where did anyone say they were cross shopping an LS460 to a Civic?
I was just mentioning, in passing, that as great as the G37 is the LS460 was way better. No mention of LS460 vs. Civic, unless you have comprehension issues? If you read the OP's post, you'll see the OP is shopping a G37 against...
OK, I just test drove a 2014 Q60 AWD Coupe 7AT and we have test driven Civics recently.
I arrived at the dealer in my 2016 GTI, for reference. I will preface this with, IMO, as fairly as I can I truly believe the GTI is FAR superior to a Civic Si, and even my wife agreed the GTI is in many...
You are on a Honda site, there's tons of fanbois here. You can't have a subjective discussion about cars at all.
I have been on here prior to CivicX being released, and when it was released, all of these stories started coming out about the car. Including dash vents that wander in the summer...
That rust is totally normal.
The one concern I have is the cracked steel in the first picture.
Did you buy this car used? Almost seems like it may have been in an accident
I suggest the Pioneer AVH-2330NEX. HD radio, CP/AA, super stable doesn't bug out and require a "reboot". Get that and a Metra install kit. I have the 2330 in my truck, it is far better than the Honda Infotainment system.
OP you are just trying to make yourself feel better about having a weak 1.5 engine.
The 2.0T, as I understand it, adds:
HUD
Power Seats
Sunroof
a REAL transmission, not a rubber band droner
and I am sure I am leaving stuff out.
Oh, and it'll do 102mph at the end of a 1/4 mile, it is not merely...
Not an odd comparison! I remember about a year ago there was a thread in the CivicX vs. forum about the IS200t.
The infotainment issues you and others have had resolved me to avoid all Hondas with this setup. Ridgeline and new Accord owners are reporting similar issues. My wife wants a hatch...
So what if you get video of someone stealing your wheels?
You need clear video of the vehicle they are driving in and a clear shot of the license plate.
I always see videos online of people's stuff getting stolen, great you have video of some random person wearing a hoodie, now what are you...
All of the Preludes (1987, 1991 and 2001) I have had have the same peeling black over chrome trim as what has been posted about the CivicX. I wonder what the heck is wrong with Honda that they haven't come up with an alternative yet?
Yeah, you are wrong: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_120957812B/Metra-95-7812B-Dash-Kit-Matte-Black.html?tp=3121&awkw=207613060585&awat=pla&awnw=g&awcr=106648188985&awdv=c&awug=9033394
