Review: 2016 Honda Civic EX-T Coupe

[@fefisfefis42]

I have the same exact car! About 5k miles. It is ridiculous the number of people that change the ac temp thinking it was the volume knob... cracks me up!

[@99sr]

How has it held up

[@fefisfefis42]

Seyi Oluwasanmi sold it last year because I moved out of state. Had it for 2 years, 19k miles. Never any problem, no noises. Great car for the money. Got 16k for it at carmax, so held the value really well. I do recommend.

[@99sr]

Fesa Sa do u live in an area with snow and if so how was it

[@realdavidpayne]

A Civic is the best car in its class. For people saying "its too big," or "its ugly" have never driven it, or can't afford it.

[@eloyreno]

David Payne it's 19k. chill.

[@itsajoke631]

Heyu Yoma 45k now saving up for type r

[@texasblaze1016]

Jiren The Gray What a financial crisis

[@exionem]

Drive them since the late 80s/ early 90s and YES, the new Civic is bloated, about the size of a freaking Accord from 10 years ago. Nothing against the brand but this car is no longer a compact sporty coupe or hatch.

[@toyota420xp]

Mazda3

[@CristoffandFriends]

The EX-T is easily the best value for the 10th generation as well. The price difference between the EX and EX-T at my local dealership in California was only $800. A 1.5 L Turbo, fog lights, heated seats, dual-zone climate control, and a decklid spoiler is an ABSOLUTE STEAL for only $800. Love my Cosmic Blue Metallic EX-T sedan :D

[@Teremei]

yeah and a 450 watt sound system. Definitely worth the price. I just bought mine. And the 1.5T and 450 sound system are my favorite parts of the car.

[@BameronCerry]

@@Teremei it doesn’t have the 450-W system btw that was only on the EX-L, Sport, Touring, and higher trims

[@ted101975]

I have the 4 door version and love it with lane keep assist and radar cruise control. I drive 37 miles one way to work and get 39-42 mpg

[@MrChow408]

ted101975 that's amazing. Very nice car to have as a daily. Not a car I'd get since I'm young and I want a beast, but I respect it for what it was built for

[@TonyEG6]

ted101975 a civic from 92 got 55mpg

[@HarryTwatter]

and this is 3x as fast as a POS 92 Civic. Oh and you'll actually survive a crash in this one.

[@Err0Rx420]

If you want to go fast, put it in sport mode and turn off traction control and econ mode. big difference.

[@philopasaurus]

Why no traction control?

[@robertniemiec8146]

@@philopasaurus traction control slows the car down when it looses traction even if it will just be a slight slide or slip of the wheels. Always turn off tc at the track.

[@Craziemexican00]

It's hard to best the civic for just an all around practical and affordable car

[@NoLifeArcade]

I gotta give Honda credit, unlike Toyota and there annoying ass commercials, they are putting out some pretty attractive cars.

[@eloyreno]

Quinton Wideman have you seen the 18 Camry?!

[@NoLifeArcade]

It looks like a Lexus, that's really all I got to say about it.

[@TylerJ2000]

+Quinton Wideman interesting, considering lexus and toyota are one in the same

[@NoLifeArcade]

@Material Female I know, and that's why they aren't my cup of tea, I hate to say it but both manufacturers' cars are kinda ugly, and their competitors (Mercedes, BMW, Infiniti and etc) run rings around there cars, especially in performance.

[@jrg_lmnop]

Attractive cars, yes. Honda also has annoying commercials, though.

[@zedzero77]

Im old school, but can honestly say back in the early '90s the common thing you would hear about Honda was that the crx's back looked awful. then people started tuning them and all of a sudden it became a head turner, now everyone wanted one or admired it. Im already digging the fact that Honda's making people say the same thing 25 years later. once a tuned Si leaves you in the dust you will admire the back end of the car..lol

[@HAL-dm1eh]

First Civic I've seen with some character.

[@ZephyrCorsa]

The trunk can fit 2 people? hmmm😏😈

[@UniqueMechanics]

This Honda Civic looks nice and clean on the inside, just the details look quality.

[@SpudEater]

Unique Mechanics I've never been a huge Honda fan but I've always praised their interiors..They always look very well though out

[@jacobreed47]

I currently am leasing a 2016 Chrysler 300S V6. great car but not practical for here in the Seattle area. planning on buying this exact car or a new Subaru Impreza. this new Civic gets so many great reviews. good job Honda!

[@Teremei]

I ended up buying an energy green pearl 2018 coupe ex-t. Thanks Matt for your informative videos. You along with many others helped me decide on my next new car!

[@detour9170]

11:41 The look of disappointment

[@samimohammedm]

Mr Mustang GT over here doesn't get enough torque from a 1.5T

[@gudalawrence2028]

De Tour shocking that he was lost for words ..ha ha ha

[@jayczyzyk9707]

whats better

[@Alumnikiid]

I mean when you test drive CTS-Vs and Zo6s all day a 1.5l w/CVT is child's play

[@jayczyzyk9707]

Alumnikiid you need big money

[@SubaruWRXspdManual]

I like the looks. Definitely looks worth the money for low 20k.

[@thtech2133]

Finally Matt, I have been waiting for this one. Thank you and please be sure to review other civics like type r and si when they arrive.

[@isaiahdeshazier1520]

just seen one of these in person today for the first time (live in europe) looks awesome! great video Matt!

[@HarryTwatter]

side profile looks real close to the Accord coupe from like 2012

[@Err0Rx420]

Connecting your phone to the car using the usb port by the push to start button, Android Auto puts navigation on the screen so you dont need the navigation upgrade for the ex-t models.

[@BaldCreations]

Test drove one of these myself at a local auto show. I thought it was pretty nice for what it was. The turbo had a lot of lag though. You really had to get up in the RPM's to feel it.

[@basilakasheh8002]

😂 I own this car but in green. My advice get the 2017 with the Manual transmission turbocharged engine EX

[@guillermoalbarran9855]

Basil Akasheh might as well get an si ... lol

[@zman_autos6091]

Guillermo Albarran may as well have more money that some people don't have for the SI

[@guillermoalbarran9855]

Zman_ Autos if you're going to buy a new car especially a civic , you can afford the si, down payments and monthly payments are almost identical. How do I know? I'm a salesman at Honda and BMW

[@mituljariwala9821]

Guillermo Albarran whats the lowest price i can get a 2017 polit exl???

[@guillermoalbarran9855]

Mitul Jariwala if you have great credit and have good negotiating skills and you get everything the pilot offers you can probably get it for around 39k but everything depends on where you're buying the car from

[@98dc2gsr575]

loving the look of the new civics! and as usual GREAT REVIEW DUDE!

[@Dajen_Tk]

This is the exact car that Im looking at right now.

[@joshengel2105]

One of the main reasons I didn't get the new civic was because it didn't offer a manual transmission on the higher trims- especially with the 1.5t. I got a 2016 Mazda3 Grand Touring (2.5 liter) and love it, but I'm glad to hear that Honda is finally offering a manual again with the turbo!

[@BigHeadClan]

Every car should have a manual hand-break, it saved my butt this winter when I started sliding strait on into a snow bank. Oh and it's lots of fun to.

[@albinbiju7231]

I don't agree with the fact that you can't hear the turbo in the civic. I own a civic sedan with the turbo motor and I usually hear a small whistle when I slowly accelerate. But you really hear it when you roll down the windows. Idk if it's different in the coupe, but you can definitely hear it in the sedan.

[@tralyriawalker3889]

I’ve noticed that! I hear it in mine. The dealership said it was nothing to worry about it but it bothers me

[@vermontvermont9292]

5 years later a $20,000 car is going for $25,000 now for the same car.

[@towncaptain7]

Had a 13 Si on lease and got a 17 Hatch manual when that lease ended. No regrets.

[@andrewruehling7669]

anyone else notice the owner is a member of the E-4 mafia? look around 7:30

[@Montblanc1986]

Decent review but I don't think it's Wednesday material

[@icedham6686]

I really want to see you drive the new Elantra Sport. I really like the new Civic Coupe, but to me the Elantra Sports interior looks way better.

[@hen913]

My sister has the EX Sedan without the turbo and I must say it's a fairly fun car to drive. Comfy and quiet and it looks great at night. Yeah the back rear quarter is gross but you can forgive it after a while. Only complaint is the CVT, it's a good transmission but I just prefer my gears.

[@elCART3L]

The cloth is actually easy to clean. Wipe with a micro cloth and color comes right back.

[@onemanarmy1310]

26MGP AVERAGE! He must romp it around everywhere he goes, I do most of the time and i still get 32mpg average.

[@ParanormalMetalMan]

One Man Army I have this exact car he is testing and I always have the econ mode activated since I don't ever need to drive fast anywhere and I average 35 to 36 mpgs

[@synysterXsteve]

I just got the same exact car, but it’s a 2018, and it does have a leather-wrapped steering wheel. That was a pleasant surprise.

[@pedrofernandez3893]

I can't believe that they're doing the next Accord from the Civic architecture, what a gamble Honda is taking!

[@pedrofernandez3893]

The majority of Camry buyers won't know or care. They are a loyal bunch

[@ryanlittleton5615]

pedro fernandez A lot of manufacturers do the same thing as well, not just Honda.

[@TPickle430]

My first car was a manual '06 Civic Taffeta White EX coupe back when I was 16 but yeah, Civics have always been touchy at low RPMs.

[@obaidmohammedamjad7126]

the gauges are super awesome especially the graphics😍

[@zacharycromlish7337]

The new Civic's are too big

[@drunkpolack7612]

Zachary Cromlish ikr...they're now just a cheaper accord

[@tylerjordan9899]

Zachary Cromlish they're only an inch or two wider and longer than my '08. And the wheelbase is identical.

[@LittleCD]

The new accord? Oh it's a civic now

[@QarthCEO]

Accord is the new Land Whale.

[@oemasian9617]

Abstract Name the new accords represent the honda legend

[@importcarenthusiast]

I love my 2017 EXT 6-speed!!

[@ForeverDade]

Review the sport hatch

[@frankly2677]

Bryan Galeano why would he review something identical... it's not that different other than space

[@mehftv]

Quick Sipper the hatch is tuned differently and is built in England instead of Canada.

[@realdavidpayne]

its the same damn thing kid.

[@basicbodybuilding]

Quick Sipper he does it all the time

[@raulomar9057]

Can you please do a Kia Forte Koup Sx 2015 review? I'm very interested in one and if you could do a review, it would really help.

[@alansmilealot]

Raul Omar I wanted to see a review to but with the manual transmission

[@SimbaTheGreat]

Raul Omar they're fun cars to drive. If you can find one with a tech package you get heated and cooled seats, nav, back up cam (comes with out tech package as well), heated steering wheel, sunroof. It's fast. Like not blow the doors off a mustang fast, but it's a very quick car. The automatic with paddles is fun and the stick is even more fun. It's downfall is it doesn't really "stick" in the corners and the steering feel can be kinda vague even with sport setting on the steering wheel. I heard this can be remedied with a set of coil overs and better grippier tires.

[@raulomar9057]

Simba TheGreat Thanks for the advice, I bought one last week with the manual and it's so fun to drive and you're so right about the car going in corners. I'm about to buy a new set of tires since it's a used car and maybe a exhaust.

[@TickleMeElmo55]

Is the owner of the car in the National Guard/Army? Spotted an ACU patrol cap in the backseat. If so, thanks for your service and nice choice of a vehicle.

COOL Review: 2016 Honda Civic EX-T Coupe

[@willowcairns]

I plan on getting an Si when they come out, and i am in the Greensburg area if you would like to test it.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Hey Brent, thanks for offering it! I'd love to! If you can send me a message on Facebook or an email to [e-mail] whenever it's ready to go (broken in) we can set something up! Thanks man!

[@willowcairns]

Sounds good, who knows when it will be out now, rumors have it that it might be till summer. But i would like an Si but if i cant wait that long i will get a 6 speed sedan, and you can also test that.

[@realdavidpayne]

wait for the type R -- it comes out a few weeks in between.

[@willowcairns]

David Payne won't be able to afford it, and would be a lot harder to get anyway

[@nickjiang5048]

[@marcmcphee]

I remember accidentally hitting that volume slider on the steering wheel a few times…it really wakes up the 450 Watt sound system haha. 😂

[@JesseDominguez_FTL]

Try having a 2000 watt system lol

[@marcmcphee]

@@JesseDominguez_FTL 😂 ouch!

[@XXtheJUMPoffXX]

Very nice coupe, this will be my next car

[@7viewerlogic670]

That Tach is awesome! Don't like electronic emergency brake.

[@nimaside]

I'd be interested if they offered the Accords v6 engine in these. They certainly have gotten big enough.

[@huebman]

That would be sick in the SI.

[@SimbaTheGreat]

nimaside why? The balance to weight ration would absolutely ruin the cars handling and overall balance. Not to mention it would cannibalize the accord.

[@nimaside]

For that awesome 278 horsepower engine. Have you driven a V6 accord coupe manual? The car is fast!

[@huebman]

There are ways around that...there are lighter cars with bigger motors. Not saying it is a great business decision for Honda, I just would interested in seeing that, but I am sure it would eat into the accord coupe sales.

[@nimaside]

There's a rumor that this will be the last year that Accords offer the V6. Not sure if that's accurate.

[@thehondasteve2292]

Great review! Thanks for sharing ...

[@changeuse]

1:31 wait wat you said the Honda Civic exl even though in the title it says ext

[@Z3sty367]

LMAO! that acceleration reaction was funny, waiting waiting...waiting did it work?

[@wadep9916]

Love this car! Does it come with CD player? What options can I add?

[@A_guan]

Wished civic came with the 9 speed auto. Sacked in the pilot but maybe it would have been improved in this

[@Ezero8]

Can you please review a Civic Hatchback Sport? I feel like that is the best all-around Civic to get.

I find it weird and kind of funny that car manufacturers have different solutions for emergency brakes. On my 16 Chevrolet Cruze it has a foot emergency brake. That was foreign for me

[@Mr2002Ford150]

Anyway you could review the 2017 Honda Civic EX-T manual sedan?

[@snicky35]

Thank God I got my Accord when I did. The exterior of this new Civic looks horrific. It's very clear to me that the new Civic is now the old Accord. It seems that every generation the car just gets bigger and bigger. Initially I was planning on getting a Civic, however, I'm a big guy and I just found myself cramped when I test drove the prior generation Civic and thus went for the Accord.

[@bendriscoll2884]

So if the steering is heavy then I don't wanna buy it

[@quanronghu4900]

I keep my lanewatch on all the time, I found it distracting look at right side mirror on highways and in San Francisco

[@magnaxilorius]

I have a 2016 EX-T sedan and it's a great car especially for someone like me who commutes 52 miles one way. It's efficient and deceptively quick for its specs; however, the infotainment system in it is one of the worst things on the market. It's usually non-responsive, the touch power "button" for the audio literally doesn't work in mine, and every time you start this car there's always this annoying warning message that takes over the touch screen that you always have to confirm on before you can operate things like the climate controls, radio, or other options. That's the one complaint I have about this car. The mechanics/engineering 8/10. The infotainment system 1/10.
