  1. Is there something you would change about your Civic?

    Although I do like my Civic very much, there is one thing in my EX-L that I think is a bit strange and that is the very low passenger seat: I have never been in a car (other than very low sports car) with such a low seat. I suppose it is to allow for greater headroom and legroom. Feels like...
  2. 2016 Honda Civic back and hip pain cloth seats

    Yes, I developed this problem with my 2007 Civic and it was one of the big reasons to upgrade and trade it in. I got the EX-L trim package with an adjustable seat and now with the same cushion I always used, I have little or no pain. I can drive across town with no pain. On a long trip, I have...
  3. What do you like best or enjoy most about your Civic?

    I bought my Cosmic Blue EX-L Civic in July, trading in my 2007 Civic Hybrid which I liked very much but the unadjustable driver seat became an issue. At first I did not like my new vehicle more than the old one but as time goes on I am liking it more and more! My new car did not have a CD...
  4. Official COSMIC BLUE Civic Thread

    Nor have I. And even though sales records have been set sometimes this year, I have not noticed many new Civics where I live but many of the older ones.
  5. Gas tank range

    Range is over 500 miles. Getting between 39 and 41 when all in town driving and over 50 on the highway. Very pleased.
  6. What is the best real world MPG average you are getting from 2.0l or 1.5l

    Drove interstate today of 470 miles and got 50.2mpg. This with econ and a/c at about 70mph. One tank was totally city and got better than 39mpg. My hybrid got better in the city but not as good on the highway!!! I should mention that I have the EX-L which is a 1.5L turbo
  7. What little tips and tricks do you know?

    Do you mean the tab on the top or the audio 'button'?
  8. What little tips and tricks do you know?

    Hi, Without looking through 12 pages of items, could someone remind me how to reboot the audio system please? I have an EX trim model. Sometimes the car will not read my ipod for some reason and then next time I drive, it does. I think the reboot when this happens would be helpful. Thanks in...
  9. 2016 Civic Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far?

    LOL! My son laughed at me when I moaned the loss of the CD player. I would not have minded an 'outdated' dash! And the thing is that I attend a number of conferences and talks are still on CDs but now I put them on my laptop and then sync to ipod. Takes time to do this. I did not know there...
  10. 2016 Civic Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far?

    Have the EX-L trim package with a Navi which was what could be found in that package and color at the time. I like the navigation too. I needed an adjustable driver seat for sciatica and so needed this package to get it. I know the Touring also has adjustable passenger seat as well. The...
  11. 2016 Civic Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far?

    First disappointment was no CD player so bit by bit I am putting my favorite songs from CDs and good talks on an ipod. And am finding the ipod really quite convenient for finding what I would like to listen to without carting around my CDs. Still in process of transferring though; that takes time.
  12. 2016 Civic Owners-Biggest Surprises/Disappointments so far?

    Yes, when I ride passenger and hubby wants me to find something else in audio, it is not easy. Nor is adjusting volume from the passenger side.
  13. Why did you purchase Civic EX trim over Corolla?

    Drove a Toyota Camry for years and then passed it along to teenaged son and it even survived him! (but looked much the worse for wear). That Camry was a hard to kill car. When time for a new car in 2007, I was interested in Hybrids. Did not like the look or feel or drive of the Prius and...
  14. Gas Mileage

    With 6 weeks of ownership: I am getting a little better than 39 when all city driving and up to 47 on a good highway, or about 45ish with more stop and go highway. This is not far off my former hybrid mark.
  15. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Oh, have not found how to bring that up yet. How do you get to that screen please?
  16. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Washed the car by hand. Ordered California Duster.
  17. Help! Can't decide on a color!

    Ok....I would NOT recommend the Cosmic "Blue". For one thing, it is not blue. And secondly it shows dirt more than any car I have ever owned and I have owned many and in many colors. I only drove to the store in the rain the other day and it is only a few miles and my car looks terrible! So...
  18. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Where did you get the screen protector? Is it unique for Honda?
  19. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Used the Invisible Glass again; still working on the last of that 'fog' on the windows in my new car. Went to the car wash and filled up the tank! About 460 miles for the tank.
  20. Official COSMIC BLUE Civic Thread

    My dealership obtained the Cosmic Blue EX-L from a city about 90 miles away and overnight.
