Here's a kind of cruel comparison...What about the base Acura TLX 2.4, which has a list price of $31,695 before destination. I think it's a beautiful car, and it has also sorts of premium features and engineering, including an 8-speed DCT, precision all wheel steering, etc., etc.
But wait, you're probably saying, isn't the TLX a size larger? Yes, it is on the outside, but in terms of interior room the TLX has 93.3 cubic feet inside compared to 95 for a 2016 Civic with a sunroof.
But surely the TLX's trunk is larger? No, the TLX's trunk measures 13.2, while the new Civic's trunk is 15.1.
Plus the new Civic has CarPlay/Android/Auto, which the TLX apparently won't get for another year.
I think the TLX is one of the best looking cars on the road. But so is the 2016 Civic.
And when it comes to acceleration, Car and Driver tested both as going to 60 at 6.8 seconds:
