Prime Autotainment which one is better ，ex-t and ex？

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Depends if you want a turbo with extra features or not. The current civic now has a turbo on the EX trim

[@fanniethomas2778]

Great

I just went from a 2008 Camry to a 2018 Civic EX-T and I love it! Thank goodness for videos like these because there isn’t a thing I don’t know about my car now.

Just upgraded from a 2002 Mazda Protege 5 to this fully loaded EX-T. It’s insane how futuristic this car feels when you first get in. Bluetooth, beautiful interior, side and rear view cameras, plenty of storage and just all around great looking car.

[@JPDunn13]

I just bought this car about two weeks ago. I got the turbo and six-speed manual transmission. I love it! On the first three tanks of gas, I am averaging 36mpg combined in-town/highway driving. The electric blue color is awesome.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Good choice in the engine/tranny! I bet that manual is pretty fun. I bet the MPG will get even better but that’s great. Thanks for watching and enjoy your civic!

[@mikebingham9700]

Good for you! SAVE THE MANUAL's Dump the CVT's!!!

[@EddyMercy]

Getting this as a first car God willing this summer, super excited

[@gohzilla9356]

Owned 2016 Dark Gray Honda Civic with the similar trim for two years now and not a moment that I regret buying this car. Beautiful exterior, spacious interior, and audio system is pretty good. "Brake Hold" is officially a feature that I cannot live without it! Plus the auto start feature is pretty awesome to have! My 40oz hydro flask was able to fit in that bin perfectly at 9:20 which was a bonus for me. Outstanding car to do a road trip! I lived in LA California and I visited San Francisco, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah driving my Civic. It can do more than 42mpg, I think the record I was able to achieve was 51mpg on the highway. Overall, I was spoiled by this car and the best bang for the buck I had ever spend.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

That’s fantastic! I agree on the brake hold...It’s really convenient. I’m glad to hear that you’re enjoying it and hope that continues! Thanks for sharing that

[@ckrose4163]

Thank you for this video and all who commented. I just bought this exact model and was hoping that I made a good decision. It appears that I have! I Love it! Mine has less than 26000 miles on Her.

[@iLikeTigerz101]

It’s nice! I used to want the civic touring trim but I bought a Prius instead.

[@patrickhauser631]

Great review! I bought this exact car (even the same color) in September of 2018 and I love it. This is my 3rd Civic in the past 19 years and they've all been great, but this one was a huge leap from 2008 model that I had before. You're really getting the best of both worlds with the 1.5 EX-T. When you want to go quick, it will move, once the turbo spools up. But if you want to save money on gas, it really can get the mpg that it's rated at, and without really trying that hard. One feature that I really enjoy is the Android Auto (it has Apple Car Play too, but I'm an Android guy). That gives me the option to run either Google Maps or Waze for navigation and they both work great. Another feature I like is that you can use the extra USB port below the cup holder to load up a bunch of music. I have over 100 CDs worth of songs ripped and copied onto a thumb drive and it works really well. I did try the 3 month free trial of Sirius XM and while I liked it I didn't feel it would be worth the monthly fee. Especially with so many other options for music. It does NOT have a CD player, but with the option to get tons of music through USB and from a phone (e.g. Android Auto provides access to Amazon Music), I haven't missed it. One thing I really like is how sharp this car looks. My previous two Civics, a green '97 and a silver '08 were about is boring as you could get. So I decided my next car was going to more fun to drive, and just plain look cooler. This one actually looks very nice, and I love it in the Aegean Blue. It really stands out when parked in a row of black or grey SUVs at the grocery store. I did consider getting the Touring model for the extra features and the subwoofer, but ultimately decided to be more frugal. And even without a subwoofer, the EX-T model does sound very good. Overall I am very pleased with this car, and every time I go out to my garage I still can't believe I now have a car this nice!

[@jakobbecker6516]

Patrick Hauser quick thing about the Sirius XM. If you buy the cheapest package and then wait til it runs out you can get a much more reasonable price. Just call and tell them you want to cancel and they will usually offer you 6 months for $30 which is a lot better.

[@ashlynsheppard6542]

Being 20 years old I didn’t think I would be able to get a car like this on my own! I went from a 2002 Honda Accord to this 2018 Honda Civic Ex-T in this gorgeous blue color! I’m in love, well worth the price and the sport mode really has some get up and go behind it. I would recommend this car to anyone. Plus Honda financing is fantastic! They were able to work with me and keep my payment low, couldn’t be happier.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Awesome to hear Ashlyn! That’s a nice upgrade coming from a 2002. Good choice with the blue EX-T and I hope you continue to enjoy it. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@edwardquebral8010]

Personally and this is just my opinion ok. I believe that the black panther movie sucked. After the movie I sat there wanting my money back. Of course there was a moron in back of me that brought his baby making the movie more awful for me to bare. And my mom was texting me through out the movie asking me to not forget to buy her lottery tickets on my way home. And as the movie was going on all that was in my head was in about 4 hours the Lakers were going to play the 76ers away from staple center and that was bumming me out because the Lakers this season of 2017-2018 are not any good. So I figure well put this game on the lost column. But about this video, yo that cup holder description was tight. I would buy this car

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I just bought the 2017 of this version of car. I got it for 19500 with 2000 miles on it. It is a blast to drive. Talk about tight steering. I can make a complete turn around with the car with just one hand on the wheel. The car runs so smooth. Has just enough speed and is fun as hell to drive. It has so many functions. Car will unlock and lock itself by just sensing your fob. The only thing i don't like is the seats aren't as comfortable as my fusion but with an added cushion it fixes the problem. A little harder to get in and out of compared to a mid size car. But once youre inside and driving down the road it is fun fun fun to drive.

[@evelynchavira1869]

Trying to get a new car torn between the Mazda3 or the Honda ex-t ... recommendation please 😕

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Hey Evelyn...I think you’d be happy with either one. The Mazda3 feels pretty good to drive with handling and the way the steering feels. The Civic has lighter steering which makes it a bit more relaxing. The Civic will be faster and more efficient. You can get quite a few features on the Mazda3 as options. The Civic has more trunk and back seat space which is nice, plus a more practical interior console/storage area IMO. Even though the Mazda is fun I think the Civic is a more practical option. You leaning one way or the other? I got to spend a lot of time driving a Mazda3 and reviewed/test drove it if you wanna see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6G6cp-re5ikpJo Good luck to you 🙂

[@evelynchavira1869]

Prime Autotainment Aw thank you so much for replying, didn’t think anyone would. My car got totaled and have no other option but to get a new car and have no idea what to get. I’m leaning more on the civic but wanted to know if it was a smart idea. Saw both of your videos and they were great reviews. Again thanks so much for answering have a lovely day 😊

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Dang that’s unfortunate. Hope nobody got hurt! I always try to at least read comments and respond to some. Thanks for watching. I think the Civic would be a good choice. If I was shopping for a car in that class...it would probably be Civic. I’d love to hear what you get if you decide later!

I don't know if I should opt for the Turbo or just get the basic EX. I test drove both of them yesterday, and I came to the conclusion that I could live without the turbo, but I do like heated seats in the winter...

[@PrimeAutotainment]

The non turbo is definitely faster than the old 1.8 in last generation so it would work fine for most people. Maybe go up to exl? Otherwise my wife has a cheap heated seat mat in her car we got off amazon for like $25. Not as nice as actual heated seats but it works lol.

Have you noticed something like this in the Civics 20th Gen you have tested? Thanks

Weird, no I haven't noticed any of that but haven't had that much time with them!

I wouldn’t buy any car that’s been in an accident

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Gabrielle sorry I missed your comment earlier. I would be hesitant to buy it after the accident too. If you get it, It sounds like a good price but if possible see if the dealer would let you take it to and independent mechanic for a quick look to see if there’s anything they would see or notice that could be an issue, just in case. Also be sure to double check with your car insurance company what insurance would be because things change after there’s been an accident.

[@goldensun168]

Pretty much! I know one thing is different...Coupe EXT has upgraded sound system with a subwoofer, sedan does not. Other than that I believe it’s basically the same

[@jackgordon9727]

Thanks!

[@Victor-vq9ks]

Does this have a factory amplifier?

[@kalnse9982]

Does anyone know how to clean the seats???

[@juniormmmm]

Nice review. I don't see the hatchback link, but I am sure it's coming. I would definitely get the turbo engine because I feel like it'll get me out of some situations when I require a little bit more power.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yeah sorry I will get it published on Thursday! I agree with the Turbo. Thanks for watching!

[@Outplayedqt]

juniormmmm situations like...running from the cops? Lol

[@Bartonovich52]

Outplayed.... like merging traffic or passing. The torque on this engine is unbelievable. I have a 6 speed and at highway speeds you can leave it in 6th and pass another vehicle no problem.

[@10GolDenHeaRts]

I wish they had put the same center console including the charging areas on the crv

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yes definitely, that CRV center area is really convenient

[@RyanMiller3039]

Could the touring trunk be smaller because of a subwoofer back there?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yep, you're right! Thanks for that...when I did the video I was wondering. Thanks!

[@RyanMiller3039]

Prime Autotainment you're welcome sir.

[@AntonGumiran]

Civic vs Mazda 3 base models. What's your opinion?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Dang. On the base I would maybe go with the Mazda3 because if it’s driving dynamics and interior feel. At least my heart would want that. My head might say Civic because of the extra backseat and trunk space/interior practicality. On the other trims, I would probably go Civic. Are you leaning one or the other? I got to spend quite a bit of time with the Mazda3 and liked it, wish I had more time with a Civic

[@AntonGumiran]

@@PrimeAutotainment Right now I'm leaning towards the 3 because I dont really see much reviews of the base models Civic. Also in my country the Civic and Mazda 3 are only available on CVT and Automatic respectively. The Civic seems to be the better deal in terms of practicality but I have no idea how reliable the CVT of the Civic.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Interesting about the transmissions! I’m not sure about the reliability either. I definitely don’t really hear about them like the Nissan CVTs. Maybe do some research in forums. The practicality is the Civic is definitely nice, Honda always does good with that. Good luck with your decision!

[@RileyXmusic]

How come the Honda website says 28mpg in the city and you and other places sat 32mpg??

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Hi James, the 28 MPG is with the base engine and manual transmission. The 1.5 Liter turbo engine with a CVT is what gets the best MPG. In the Honda site you can go to “Models and specs” then “compare models and specs” and it should let you compare trims and see which combination gets what. Hope that helps!

[@johnnybman7125]

He forgot to mention all Civics Come with Sport Mode, that is awesome i never heard of a car that has sport mode, this would sound better if i was wearing racing overalls, yep yep, it has sport mode, in fact all civics have sport mode, first of its kind its worth mentioning that ALL civics have SPorT MOdE i never heard of such a thing this is innovative... did you hear me people i said SPORT MODE yup SPORT MODE... yup yup they surely dooooooooo.... sport mode sport mode sport mode, sport mode for me sport mode for you sport mode for everybody.... sport mode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@LongNguyen-lx8if]

Also can you get the manual in the touring trim?

[@raffiboi22]

I thought all the 2018 Hondas come with a knob for volume? Is this a 2018 or 2017?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Raffi C it’s a 2018. The Accord and CRV have knobs now that I know. The 2018 Pilot, Civic, Ridgeline still haven’t had the update with knob. But should get “refreshed” soon then I’m sure they will add the knob(s) lol At least you can still use the steering wheel!

[@Rhardebeck]

Would I fit in it being 6'2"?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I really think you would. I was in a 2019 more recently and pumped the seat all the way down and had a ton of headroom. I’d be curious about your right knee by the center console though...that might be the tightest area for you. At the 10:24 mark in my 2019 Civic video I give you a better view of headroom if you want to see that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4CVh2tui8qWa7M

[@jeremytorres9593]

Yes I’m 6’1 and I’m good

[@TheYellowmon02]

Has anyone heard of or had any engine problems? I’ve read that turbo engines don’t do well in the south, I’m in Texas

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I’ve heard of the 1.5T having “oil dilution” where fuel and oil are mixing that causes issues, but more prevalent on the CR-V. Honda is supposedly working on a fix. As far as being in the South...I’ve driven several turbos in North Texas and haven’t noticed anything unusual. Turbo engines do better than non turbo engines in higher elevation because they can force more air into the engine, but haven’t heard of any deficits in warm/humid weather

[@TheYellowmon02]

Thanks for your feedback brother

[@PrimeAutotainment]

You’re welcome!

[@hankv2214]

A very expensive lesson learned. Paid $29k for a 2016 Toyota RAV4 XLE with no power seat and lumbar support. Big disappointment and big uncomfortable seats. Had to dump it. Wasted $11,000 for nothing. Don't. Don't. Don't ever get a car without lumbar support. Power is not necessary but lumbar is the key. Go for the EXL. You'll love it.

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Thanks for the input, Hank. Sorry about your misery with those seats! I agree about the importance of lumbar...always a good thing to have!

[@Niners4949]

Would you say this vehicle would fit someone that is 6'2 ?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yeah I’d say so! There’s a surprising amount of room in there. Your knees might be a little closer to the dash but I don’t think you’ll have a problem.

[@themechanic4222]

Important question! Honda or toyota

[@PrimeAutotainment]

When it comes to civic vs Corolla I’d go with Civic

[@PrimeAutotainment]

What about you?

[@mirianaivanovic109]

Honda. Toyota is basic compared to Honda. This is my 2nd Civic. Just got the 2018 Honda Civic EXT. Traded in a 2007 Honda Civic with 180,000 miles. Looked new. My boyfriend has owned both Toyota and Honda. He also prefers Honda.

[@husnainwali4526]

I alwaysed loved this car

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It’s impressive for its class!

[@cameronbedrava120]

r u a fan of the speakers? hearing diff opinions

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Well on this ext it’s definitely better than the 4 speaker system in LX trim but no real bass or fullness. The touring gives you a 10 speaker system with subwoofer if you really want better sound but I haven’t heard that one personally in the civic

[@LongNguyen-lx8if]

How is this compare to the civic si?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

I’ve never driven the Si but you get more power and torque, for more money though. Depends if you want that extra little zip while driving or not! A hatchback sport trim with the manual gives you some extra power too though for less money

[@bergthe89th12]

Considering this model as the first car I’m buying in the coming months. Forgive my ignorance, as I’m new to all of this but what engine do I need if I drive 10-20 miles from my house to work? The 1.5L or 2.0L?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Good question, well if you want the quickest, fastest...go with the 1.5. The 2.0 is sufficient for speed but if it’s a lot of highway driving and you need to pass people or merge quickly then I’d go with the 1.5. Otherwise if that’s not a big deal, the 2.0 is definitely sufficient and cheaper with the trim levels. Since the 2.0 is not a turbo, there’s potential it could be longer lasting and/or need less maintenance. But maybe not! Which one you thinking?

[@bergthe89th12]

Yeah it’s a lot of highway driving, outskirts of town. So I’m guessing the 1.5 turbo then?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

That’s probably what I would go with, you’ll have a little more fun with it too 😁

[@bergthe89th12]

And it consumes lesser fuel than the 2.0L?

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It’s supposed to. 2.0 is rated at 31 city / 40 hwy. 1.5 Turbo is rated at 32 / 42. I haven’t compared both in real driving though

[@ValueYourTimeOnEarth]

Fucking lane watch is awesome.

[@alexnava8839]

What the difference between the 2018 and the previous 2017 or 2016? I see no difference 😭

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Yep basically unchanged! But from 2016 to 2017 they made manual transmission standard in ext. otherwise same car!

[@DeJuanchi27]

My civic doesnt have the pages icon...weird?

[@a.d.264]

I have a 2016 EX-T model and it’s the exact same car

[@PrimeAutotainment]

Very nice! How do you like it?

[@samrobles1650]

does this model have an aux plug

[@PrimeAutotainment]

It has Bluetooth and USB hookups but I don’t believe it has an Aux

[@vonnmesina9663]

What series of honda civic got the sunroof? :o awesome vid btw!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

For this year the base LX doesn’t have it but EX and up will have it standard. I’m not sure what years they started having it though. And thank you very much 😁

[@vonnmesina9663]

@@PrimeAutotainment thanks alot! Upon checking, it seems that the honda in our country only offers 2016 models :(, ones without the "sharksfin", side cameras and the most anticipated sunroof. Bummer, but hope they release these badass variants soon!

[@PrimeAutotainment]

That’s interesting, crazy how things are different in each country. Even between US and Canada they do things differently. I hope so too!
