- 2017 Civic EX Hatchback
This. I give my friends this advice all the time when they're looking at new vehicles. If you're spending a few hundred bucks per month for a new car, it's infinitely easier to do so when you love what you're driving. If you feel the same about your car as you do about your washing machine, it's gonna be a lot tougher to stomach writing that check. I've lived on both sides of that situation lol, on the right side of it nowIf I'm going to make car payments I'm going to drive something I like.
On-topic: The only vehicle I was seriously considering other than the Civic hatch was the Subaru Crosstrek, for the AWD and little bit of extra ground clearance. Having driven both, the Civic won me over in how tight and responsive everything felt, and after driving in some pretty serious snow without issue, I feel just fine about my decision. I've said it before but the Civic takes me back to when I had an '08 Mugen Si. Not the fastest car I've ever driven by a long shot, but the most fun, and this hatch reminds me of it and why I fell for Honda every day.
