What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Honda Civic
| Price of the Honda Civic: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
While not the bargain they once were, Honda still offers good value for the money. Maintenance costs are relatively low as well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
honda lease rate is very good |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
I got good interest rates from Honda. They also paid off the remainder of my lease on my Ford Ranger so I could trade it in 2 months early. There are also many options available on a lease. Overall it was cheaper than a similar Toyota Corolla. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
It is the "fastest" car under $20k and very fun to drive for the price. You do not feel like you are driving an "economy" car. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Not expensive for what you get. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Overall total cost of ownership was far less than other sporty models, to the tune of over $1200/year, before even considering the lower price and less depreciation. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
My Civic was reasonably priced and monthly payments are easy on the budget. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Cheap. Got it used from dealer for 16,000 w/only 3,000 miles on it. |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 127-horsepower 1.7L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Lots of bang for what we paid. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
This car was within my price range for monthly payments. |

| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
A comparable Civic is about $5,000 more than the Forte. Interest rates for 5 year plans were also higher. |
| 2009 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
too expensive |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
good sales people but not much in the way of discounts or coming off the sticker or dealing ,at sticker they make at least 1500 per car and they dont really want to deal any off the sticker and say they will sell eventually |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
You can expect to pay somewhat of a premium for the name, compared to other cars of similar features/economy. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
price of 20 k Euro a little too high |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
to expensive at 20,200 Euros |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Too pricey for what you get. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
It costs more, with less to offer, than the Scion tC ... unless you can haggle them down on the price. And good luck with that at a Honda dealer. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Civic is a good vehicle overall, but Honda name commands a higher price with few cutting edge features by comparison to usual (Toyota/ VW /Mazda) and not so common (Hyundai / Kia / Pontiac) rivals. |
| 2007 | 2dr Coupe 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
In order to get the features that were comparable to the Elantra I had to at least get the LX model. It would have cost me close to $5,000-7,000 more to get an LX civic coupe versus the final cost of my Elantra. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price was non-negotiable in 2006 it should be better in the current economy. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Have a high resale value, so it might not be on the top of the list when buying used. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 93-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid 5-speed manual FWD |
Do not buy a hybrid if you want to save money. It will cost you more than an LX Civic, even in the long run. |
| 2003 | 2dr Coupe 115-horsepower 1.7L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
No room for bargaining, and the car was $4000 more than the Protege. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 127-horsepower 1.7L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
too high |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
a great value for the money - it compares to BMW 3 series, Nissan Maxima, Saab, or Volvo all much more $ |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The car had 5K miles on it; the price for a loaded EX-L (no navi) was $19,400. It now has 12K & is very nice especially for the price. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
its cheap! It is a great bang for the buck. I could not find a better car for 22K |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Best car for the price. Unable to obtain any like american car for the same monthly payments and we have leased for 12 years. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Got 2.9 APR for 5 Years (0.9 APR was also available for 3 Years) |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Got 2.9APR for five Years(.9 APR was also available for 3 Years) |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
I bought in December 2007 in Woodbridge, VA. I got a great deal. All said and done after all taxes and fees: Less than $21,500. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
price was significantly lower than list |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
The Accord is priced at a very reasonable price point for the different models. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
$22K out the door; 3.9% for 36 months |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
about $1500 less than the same Camry |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Got a good deal on my vehicle, which I purchased at the end of the model year. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Paid cash. |
| 2006 | 2dr Coupe 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
I received a $3500 incentive for buying a "left-over" car. I purchased a new 2006 Accord in Jan/2007. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
I must have hit the dealer at the right time because I am paying less for the V6 6SP than I was paying for a 2003 EX-L 4 cyl w/5SP and with no money down, only first months payment due at signing. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price was 19 out the door including tax for me new in MT. Dealership cost may be high, but the chances your car is going to break down is nil, so thats even more thirft. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
We bought a DX with dealer-installed AC. $13,000 plus a Plymouth Breeze with a blown head gasket. Not bad for a brand new car with 11 miles on the odometer. |
| 2005 | 2dr Coupe 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
Using CarsDirect, my price was 23.4 exclussive of TTL |
| 2002 | 2dr Coupe 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
In 2001, I bought a fully-equipped Honda Accord Coupe brand new for less than $21,000. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 150-horsepower 2.3L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |

The dealer was terrible. No price break offered or given upon my request. I walked. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
See above. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The car is expensive, lets hope the resale stays up long enough. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
If your replacing an Accord with an older Accord, say 4 to 6 years older you will reap the benefits of their resale value, otherwise nearing $30,000 your first one can bring some steep payments and rhey expect much larger downpayments going into a lease. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The new car prices are over rated for what you get because the value loss in the first 3 years. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
In my area used Accords cost more year by year than Camrys do. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Year for year used Accord prices in my area are higher than Camry prices. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
The low deprciation is a double edged sword and V6 Accords were about $3000-4000 more than any of the Maximas I was looking at. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Pricey to buy both new and used, but worth it for the reliability and resale. |
| 2000 | 2dr Coupe 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
It was simply too expensive. |
