What did you drive before your 10th Gen Civic?

[Chupacabra519]

2001 Hyundai Tiburon - Awesome first car, but the auto tranny went, had it rebuilt, went again

2007 Ford Focus ST - Lots of wheel bearing issues, and the A/C decided to die a glorious death, stock exhaust didn't compliment the car's lack of power

2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI Comfortline - Great car, excellent torque and fuel economy and premium interior, was supposed to be my "10-year car"; taking the VW buy-back as a result of dieselgate, and the car was also quite expensive to maintain, plus lots of complicated system that would be very expensive to repair if they ever fail (HPFP, DEF system, particulate filter). Will be returning her to VW this Tuesday.

2017 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport (6M) - Picking her up on Wednesday, aegean blue metallic. Can't wait since I've been driving my wife's 2010 Escape to work for the past 2 months.

These millennials, who spends anytime figuring them out. He seems nice maybe he just wanted what looked like a bigger car. My thing was the 1999 Civic has a good motor and I would have spent funding that with CAI or even a manual conversion. But this is a young millennial.

Yeah I guess it depends on the person, I mean I'm a bit of an older Millennial but I still value efficiency and reliability over the "look at me" mentality.

I love the look of my 2017 Civic, but even if it didn't look as cool as it does I would have still gotten it, because at the end of the day as they say, "it's a Honda"

I finally have >1000 miles on mine, and let it stretch its legs a bit. My previous DD was as '13 Elantra GT. There were a few features in that Elantra that I liked, but otherwise it was an absolute turd.

7th gen accord- 7.5 gen V6, yeah I had the tranny replaced but bought an extended warranty and it paid off. Eventhough Honda extended the warranty on them to 100k, I still used the extended warranty.

edit: this little girl put her hands on my car 3 times in succession across the side profile at the park and im just mad these kids can't behave and parents were right there outside the car next to mine.

It's not just kids, it's senior citizens, too...!

On my third day of ownership, I had my Si inspected (bought out of state). I was nervously standing inside the waiting area with my eyes intently on my Si to make sure nothing bad happened to it. While it was next in line to be inspected, I saw a very old lady who was barely able to walk with her cane come up around the side of the car then around the front. Between each step, she firmly planted her entire palm on the fenders, doors, and hood using them to stabilize herself as she walked around and inside the waiting area. I was equally split between feeling sorry that nobody was helping her walk and being angry because she was putting handprints on a brand new car that didn't belong to her.

I have a pretty short attention span with cars...
Some of my favorites:
2008 Acura TL Type S. Really loved that one. Sold it to buy a Tahoe Hybrid. One of the best economic decisions I've ever made, but the Tahoe was just a terrible vehicle. 50+ days in the shop in 18 months. The tax benefits and the deal GM gave me to get out made that pain a win.
2012 Acura TSX love driving that thing. So responsive. Kept thinking how much the Civic felt like it during my test drive. (Pick up my Civic Wednesday)

Is that your Type R?

Not enjoying your sport, are we? The Type R is not a wise car for me.

Before my 10th gen Civic LX sedan was an 8th gen Civic LX sedan and before that a Y2K Accord LX sedan. Before that, some Fords and stuff.
