right off the bat i want to say i am VERY impressed with the latest honda civic. my friend visited me in college and took me for a ride to dinner. right away the NVH is absolutely non existant, the car feels solid, and the interior build quality is much improved from the 01 model. the car rides EXTREMELY nice. for a stock suspension its not too soft and of course not too stiff. it corners very confidently. the headlights also project a very clean pattern. no discernible hot spots at all. This car is a HUGE improvement over my 98 civic in every way! i know 6 years does a lot in car years but wow, im extremely impressed.


i have another friend with a 01 civic coupe, and the 04 is just so much better than his ride. im supremely impressed on how honda has evolved this generation.
