Depends on what you need from it. Probably their biggest selling points are economy and reliability.

front wheel drive is good for winters and weather conditions. they can be fast of course with some modding but that is not there high points. if you are looking for a car you can drive for 200k miles then you want a civic. if you want a car that will drive for 80k miles but if fast then go get some other car. if you want 40 MPG then get a civic.

I kinda feel like this post is like walking into a biker bar and just being like "Hey, I heard that motorcycles are for pussies"

But then again, he's just asking a question...

Civics are affordable, reliable, long lasting cars that get great gas mileage and can pwn joo if tuned accordingly. Civics have a STRONG backing as far as cheap and reliable aftermarket parts.
