despite what the majority thinks, a very nice car. perhaps not fast, but very reliable. not really a poor mans car, nor ugly. we're upper middle class and drive one....not hondas fault that retards go off and by a 92 civic, slap a huge ass wing and euro taillights on it and loud ass exhaust. foreign jobs are better than domestics. ford = fucker only runs downhill

Get the civic mug.A car which, no matter how much you try to improve it, still sucks ass cauz its FWD. They are an absolute waste of money and by the time youve modded it, you could have instead bought a second-hand WRX which owns!
Man, I've got so much power in my Civic, that my wheels always spin and my car suffers from chassis twist! how cool is that?!?

Get the civic mug.Dispite what the majority of people here think, Honda Civic's are very nice cars. The sporty models are faster than most of its rivals. Also very easy to customize, and can be gorgeous cars if planned out properly.
Just because some people arn't interested in modified cars, some peoples passion lies in cars, if people have nothing better to do than talk about how much hey don't like them they should find something better to do with there time, everyone is entitled to do what they like and what makes them happy.
to round this rant off, Honda Civic's are good looking, relativly cheap to run, reliable, and despite what some people say are relativly fast (perticluar the V-Tech and Type R). :-)

Get the civic mug.A reliable and well built car often criticised by uneducated Americans who are unable to drive cars with manual gearboxes. Built with technology at least 20 years ahead of American car manufacturers (Corvette still use leaf springs for Christ sake!) they are widely hated because they embarrass 'muscle' cars developing pitiful power from enormous engines (oh and of cause being completely useless if you ever come across a corner).
Unlike Hondas, American cars sell in minimal numbers outside the US, because they have appalling build quality, have pathetic power to weight ratios and can only go in a straight line.
A civic is either reliable transport, or at its best (167 bhp VTi/Sir, 197bhp Type R) a great hot hatch, that’s it. Of cause you WON’T keep up with an Evo in a Civic, it’s a mere hot hatch, not a 4x4 rally beast, but you CAN piss yourself laughing as you fly past American crap on a race track or country road.

Civic driver: I took my standard Civic Type R to Germany’s Nurburgring and got round in under 9 minutes, not bad for a 1.6.
Camaro driver: I took my muscle car to the Nurburgring and crashed on the first corner because it handles like shit, It broke down on the way too. I rented a car but I couldn’t drive it because it wasn’t an auto and I’m a fat useless sack of crap.
Mustang driver: My cars awesome because I can beat Hyundai’s on the drag strip and I can go above 100mph as long as the road is completely straight. Anyone who drives a Japanese car must be gay because I say so.
Generic muscle car driver: I am a cretin who knows nothing about cars but express my uninformed opinions loudly. I wouldn’t go anywhere near a race track because I would be urinated on by people in Japanese and European compact cars with engines a quarter of the size of my ‘beast’. I prefer to hang around in bars, boasting about how I can beat people off the lights in my V8 and then beat the crap out of the prostitute I’ve just paid for.

Get the Civic mug.Despite the criticism the Civic is actually a very well made and reliable car. The Civic type R has a V-tec cam profile tuned for high performance giving it awesome acceleration.
Very cheap and easy to mod due to abundant aftermarket parts. Some go overboard and rice them up with no engine improvements and this is why all these guys are so angry. Despite this they can be made to beat any stock domestic car fairly cheaply.

Get the civic mug.A car made to be economical reliable transportation. Usually seen at any number of clubs or malls with multiple neon lights, gay neon paintjobs, blingbling 18" rims, bumble-bee-in-a-can mufflers, blue headlights, ridiculusly styled fibreglass body kits, and a comically large spoiler that looks like it was stolen from a NASA project.
ricer - "Mah civic is so fast I will kill that Mustang."
Me - "Shutup before I put my Jeep's tire through your windshield."
Also see wankers

Get the civic mug.Yo, I was rollin down the strip just hollerin at some bitches. my honda was bouncin I cut the springs 3 inches. My neons are flashing with the beat of my bass
Just another Friday night and my Civics ready to race
I got mad props for days from all the races that I’m winning
And when I’m stopped at a redlight my hubcaps keep spinning
My Seat is layed back got my hat cocked to the side
My skin may be white but I claim asian pride
My FWD is just burning up the streets
While I got your head bobbin to this cold ass beat
Tearing down you block with my crazy ass drivin’
I’m ripping through your town like hurricane Ivan
Got the music blaring from my audiovox speakers
The crowd parts in half when I hit the strobes in my blinkers
People gather around looking kinda curious
They all wanted to know if I’m in the Fast and the Furious.
I got out of my car with my pants just saggin
Then popped open my hood so I could start bragging
Chrome exhaust tip with built in LED lights
Custom cold air intake made from PVC pipe
2 Jensen subs in the trunk that are bangin’ hard
Grill from Home Depot made from Gutter Guard
Reving up my exhaust at everything I drive by
Saw a Camero in the slow lane and gave him a ricer fly by
I got your mirrors vibrating from the bass of my subs
I told my momma for Crimus I want the Giovanni Dubs
I got Japanese symbols on the back of my car
If you could read Japanese it would say Type R
I got a carbon fiber wing that stands 3 ft high
It it was any bigger I’d be flyin’ in the sky
Fools driving driving domestics know that imports are superior
I got 15 horsepower just by painting my interior
I got more horsepower than the phonebooks got pages
And my speedometer reads 140 on my indiglo gauges
I got purple neons underneath that keep the ground lit
3 more paychecks and I’ll have my body kit
Got decals on the side of all the sponsors I wanna get
And they’ll all coming crawling cause this songs about to hit
I gotta get my Civic ready for the road to Nopi
When the judges see my car I’ll get the first place trophy
I’ll smoke any car at Hot Import Nights
The only thing you will see is my altezza taillights
Cause everybody knows Hondas are the fastest car yet
I'LL EAT A MUSTANG FOR BREAKFAST AND SHIT OUT A CORVETTE
