Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Overpriced, there are faster things for less money.
Costs
Honda dealers are not cheap, parts are not cheap, insurance isn't as much as I thought though.

On the road
Driving
Stupid levels of grip and feedback, it's a real drivers car. I honestly look forward to every journey in it.
Performance
Best handling FWD car ever! Goes around corners like it is on rails. Once you hit 6000rpm it's like a nest of angry bees in unleashed, hang on to something.

Living with it
Reliability
Honda Vtec engines do not go wrong if looked after, but they can't make gearboxes!
Image
Depends who is watching, those in the know will look in admiration. The ignorant will think the spoiler is ridiculous.
Comfort
If you can find more comfortable seats I would like to see them. Ride is bumpy - but what do you expect?
