You mean CVT... CTV is Canadian Television Network.

CVT is crap. I won't even get a new SI with a weak clutch either... 2018 Hyundai Kona with 175hp/195ft-lbs 1.6T and 7-speed DCT.
I drove a 1995 SC and although it was reliable, I was short of being 100 satisfied cause it was the V6 and it had stock rims. Other than that, I loved that it was my previous cause it was used as a battering ram with all the vandalism that it was a victim off. Some random dude that I was shadowing for not even a block did a pit manuever on me and did some damage there. This black guy pulled out a broken piece of a curb and struck my vehicle. Oh my.

CVT on this Civic I got is bad a$$

Different stage of life calls for a different vehicle!

I'm 32 years old, married with 3 kids. I will probably drive the Civic until it dies, as it is purely a commuter car at this point.

Before the Civic, I enjoyed my fair share of vehicles, including a 330ci, a 335i, and a 550i.

Once we had became pregnant with our 3rd child, be bought a Sienna. I bought the Civic purely to commute to and from work.

I know Civics are primarily marketed towards younger drivers, but I'm curious what other people drove before their Civic, or is it their first car?
The List...(In order)
1966 Chevrolet Bel Air 4/door
1970 Opel GT
1973 Opel GT
1978 Audi Fox GTI .. 2/door
1982 Chevrolet Celebrity .. 4/door (Don't ask)
1989 VW Fox GL Sport 2/door
1995 Honda Civic EX Coupe...(Still own)
2001 Honda S2000...(Still own)
2005 Honda S2000...(Still own)
2008 Honda S2000 CR...(Still own)
2020 Honda Civic Si Coupe

I’m sorry I have to ask was it a Eurosport?

LOL... No it was actually a desperation (used) purchase replacement for the Audi Fox GTI after that car was rear ended (and totaled) while I was sitting at a stop light. It was the worst car I ever owned followed by the VW Fox, and the Audi Fox. Everything that could possibly go wrong with all 3 of these cars did... several times.

before my current 2018 Civic was a 2003 Civic.

Going backwards:

2013 Hyundai Tucson
2003 Corvette Z06
2008 Scion tC
and it goes back further. Been driving since the mid-1990s.

Erm... how to simplify this...
First vehicle was a 1983 Toyota Helix. I had nine different VW Bugs, ranging from 1968 to my last 1975 Super Beetle. Three GM trucks. Four CRX's, all second Gen, all Si. A '83 Cutlass Supreme. Two EF hatchbacks, two EF sedans. Right before I got my FC3 I had two EK'S (EJ) one a sedan, one a coupe. Now it's just the FC3. I got rid of everything to have this car and I've been pretty satisfied with the decision!
