- 2016 Civic coupe
I test drove a 2016 CVT they let me have it for a couple hours.Hated it so much that I settled for an LX mt coupe because that was the only trim level that offered 6mt. All the higher trims were CVT in 2016. I thought I might regret getting the bottom of the line, but turns out I love the car. Really fun to drive.Best of all under 20 grand. While it may not actually be faster than the CVT it sure feels faster. And the NA 2.0 engine is, IMO, an excellent engine. The gears are too short, but it's not a problem unless you want to go 90. At 70mph the rpm's are fine. And I'm thinking maybe the turbo and CVT may have problems down the road, although obviously I don't know that. I'm 66 ,had a lot of cars,and I believe this is the best best car I ever had. Not the most expensive,but the best. I've had expensive cars that were junk.
