2019 Honda Civic Sport Manual Review - You Don't Need A Civic SI!

[@Sampsonay]

The fact that they downgraded the cup holders in the 11th gen is weird. I have no where to put my big friggin bottle!

[@floridaroadways]

Actually they upgraded it

[@cheesycadet6296]

I have a 18 Lx with the 2.0 and the 6MT and it is dead reliable and is super fun to drive. These cars will drive until the end of time.

[@oaky1283]

How many miles do you have?

[@cheesycadet6296]

@@oaky1283 55k, I expect to get at least 300k

2016 Civic manual owner here. The shifter is cable operated, no way near old school honda linkage shifter. Rev hang is quite noticeable. The Android infotainment screen can be rooted with hondahack and customized to the moon.

[@ano0213a]

I have a 2017 EX T 6MT-- I'm going to look into this Hondahack thing!!

[@kimochi33]

​@@ano0213a best $10 ever spent. You can even throw navigation directions to the instrument cluster like a 2024 top of the line car. Bypass the startup warning. Remap swc buttons.

"Hondahack". Just learned something new. Thank you!!

[@chilly3528]

I love how Honda still offers 6spd manual in their brand new 2024 models. Although only in 5dr hatch, if u want a manual sedan its only available in SI

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

Way better than Toyota. Killed it in the Corolla sedan and then in the Corolla hatch. "Just buy the GR Corolla" ah yes, spend 50% more just because I want a manual. Also there's like 20 2024 GR Corollas for the entire country.

[@narniebone1332]

Off piste a little but today I saw a Honda S660 for the first time in the flesh you totally need one of these on the channel so cool

[@NAUS2K]

Awesome review Zach. I really considered getting one of these over my 2023 sport 6mt hatchback. Love the front end looks, however can’t get over the eyesore crab leg taillights and rear end design. The center console had so much more room in the 10th than the 11th it’s insane. 11thgen is much more impracticable it’s insane. 11thgen is also proving to be much less reliable with the leaking hatchback issue

[@ShaiyanHossain]

you could always get aftermarket tails or something

[@vineelgarsa3956]

I used to have 2019 Honda Civic Sport Manual and recently sold it. I miss this baby badly. Amazing machine to drive, fun, pickup, shifting gears everything is a top notch.

[@2Kriss2Kross]

Had an ‘16 EX Sedan and ‘19 Touring Hatch of this gen before moving onto my current ‘22 Touring Hatch. Remember what a stir this gen was with its design when it was released. Think Hyundai aped this gen with their current Elantra. Loved both 10 gens I had but my 11th gen despite its simpler styling is definitely a better car in refinement, quality, and features.

[@sheldonlamey7010]

This is a great car thanks for posting manuals are rare now.

[@diablow1411]

This one has been my favorite generation of Civic with the design and all the creature comforts it comes with! Though, we never had a manual one here (all of them had CVTs, even the base model). A friend of mine has the 2018 Sedan and we did ride on that car quite a few times. Miss the dude.

[@vicp8772]

Canadian here - have a stick 19 sp touring hatch 1.5T - Rare for sure. Good review - don't have the oil dilution issue

[@dave11686]

There’s some thing I do love about the infotainment and dash on these Hondas

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

I'm saying this again and again. Economy cars need to have manuals! "Only enthusiasts buy them so only enthusiast cars should have them" is insanely stupid because way fewer people will learn manual if it's only in a couple cars and enthusiast cars are hard to obtain. I applaud Honda for having a manual in the Civic to this day! I will never forgive Toyota for killing the manual Corolla. The GR Corolla is at least 50% more expensive and entirely unavailable. I really hope when the Corolla gets a facelift the manual will be back, considering the brand new Tacoma got one.

[@davidp2888]

Cool car. Hondas are solid and dependable.

[@electricwatches1]

I have this same car, but it’s an auto. Not the fastest or fanciest thing in the world, but still a great car!

[@darkproduce15]

you should shoot my 2018 accord 2.0 6mt..:)

[@kencai6803]

I think 2019 and 2020 were the last two years that Honda offers the combo of a manual naturally aspirated sedan. No to mention there is no more base manual normal Civic after 2025😢 Not even for the 1.5 turbo.

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

That's a nice car. I've always liked this generation of Honda cars. CAR GOOD!! CAR NICE!!! CAR WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@robme3660]

Avoid any cleaning products with ammonia. That includes windex. That's true with these Honda instruments panel covers and all makes of infotainment screens.

[@hollybirge4087]

I agree with you on the styling. It’s so much better than the new ones which I think are ugly.

[@rickyeligio1674]

Wish my 24 sport sedan would have come with a manual option

[@GengarZ28]

This is so nice , still don’t like the sedan . The hatchback is much better looking BUT It doesn’t have this configuration 2.0 M6 .. but the next generation does 🔥

[@aurorayoru5333]

I don’t know why Honda got rid of the K 20 in the SI

[@angrybadger8136]

bet it sounds good with a full exhaust

[@stickshiftdriver1832]

I 2ould take the basic civic. The SI would be more expensive to repair. I think that most would rather purchase the Civic up to the downturn of the economy and no disposable income that were available when this car was produced

[@kcm732]

is this 2.0L non-turbo still port injected?

[@namesdom]

Better than a manual mazda3 from that era?

[@Commandos12]

i too wanted a manual non performance car for daily use. only one i found was the jetta. too bad it's not a hatch back :I (mazda 3 is too expensive)

[@ShaiyanHossain]

the civic...

[@Commandos12]

the civic is alot more expensive than the jetta though. @@ShaiyanHossain

[@veilsideFD3S]

I always see this generation of Civic in white.

[@HarleyMartinez-t6e]

👍🏻

[@cyrilmatthew2995]

I hate the design of this gen of civic ... The type R look like a ricer car ...

[@Userxxx840]

This one was a runner up right before I got my Camry. Loved this car but Toyota had better financing.

[@floridaroadways]

Ford is dependable too
