Used HONDA CIVIC EX-L (POV Test Drive + Ownership Review) | 2006-2011 8th Generation Coupe

Join me for a POV drive on my used 2009 #Honda #Civic EX-L 5-speed manual transmission coupe. In this used car review, I share my ownership impressions of the 8th Generation Civic, winner of the 2006 MotorTrend Car of the Year award.
The Honda Civic is very popular on the used car market being a fun to drive, reliable and fuel efficient vehicle equipped with the 1.8-litre SOHC i-VTEC (R18A) engine from Honda.
The 8th gen was first introduced in 2006, and continued into 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and lastly 2011.

I love this car so much. When I was 7 and first saw my dad bring this car home I was struck by the styling inside and out; The blue paint, the sports car-like windshield angle, the corresponding huge dash, and the digital speedo made it seem like a spaceship to me. And Honda engineering means that 16+ years of commutes and 197k miles later she still revs out and consents to being driven like she's stolen day in day out. I love that the limit of this car's performance is fully accessible, and the rattles and wobbles she has developed with age sometimes even make her feel fast, haha. I want to give my dad a big hug for buying this beauty and handing her off to me.

[@RideYEG]

Honda really is timeless hey? Beautiful story and glad you are still enjoying this amazing car!

[@richardreyes3764]

I just bought a 2011 civic and I’m IN LOVE!!! I used to have an 08, and this one really just takes the cake. I absolutely love how it handles corners, the screams of the engine, and the overall quality of it

I have the same car but an automatic, it is incredible how timeless it looks in the inside and the outside.

Within 30k miles, the transmission was done for. Was replaced under warranty at least. But yeah I've heard nothing but bad things about CVT's so I still wouldn't get one myself.

i got an 8th gen si as my first "fun car" because i didnt like my 7th gen lx. theyre pretty cheap, and as an 18yo going into the airforce i didnt want any debt so i bought a used si thatll last me until im out of the military. im loving it every time i drive!

I remember when I was younger I absolutely loved this generation of the Civic and it was always my dream to drive one. Almost a year now during my summer with all the crazy gas and used car prices I was saving up money to just get a car in general when one day I managed to find someone selling their Manual 08 EX Coupe for a great price, good mileage, and has given me no issues at all. Every time I get to drive it I absolutely enjoy it and I'm glad that luck was on my side and I got my Dream Civic ^_^

I own a 2007 Honda Civic LX sedan with 220,000 kms and the engine runs like brand new. I bought it new and it has been serviced at the dealer since day 1. In June of this year, I got t-boned in it, and now it's a write off because the insurance wouldn't pay for the repairs even though it wasn't my fault, as someone ran a stop sign and hit my car. A week ago, I bought a 2009 Honda Civic EX sedan with 145,000 kms and I hope to drive it for another 5 to 10 years.

[@davidlp3019]

Hey mate awesome video. I just bought this as my first car here in Australia. 2008 civic 1.8l 5 speed manual with 180,000 kms. Coming from automatic it's hard to learn to drive but I'm getting the hang of it. I like the look of these cars, I really think they got the styling right. I had a mechanic check it before I bought it and he said it was in good shape. The car runs really well but does have some minor issues. The AC works really well for about 20 minutes after a cold start then cuts out and in intermittently. Think it might be a refrigerant pressure issue that's shutting the compressor off. Also mine can sometimes be hard to get into 2nd and reverse gear and the clutch has quite a high take up point, so I'm not sure if the clutch or the synchros(hopefully not) are worn somewhat. I'm gonna keep it serviced and try and get some good use out of it.

[@alisterruss9818]

I had to do the bearings in my 5 speed at just under 190k. They have some odd sizes and were hard to find

[@marksystemed4678]

[@scottmallory3507]

I presently have a 2010 ex-l coupe manual as my main car, also have a 99 miata (yes mazda does make a nice manual trans). I am 57 and I have been driving civics for well over 20 years now. I have owned a 97 dx coupe manual, a 2004 lx sedan auto and a red 2005 si coupe manual. I drove many Fords and GMs when I was younger, my first car was a 1970 mustang 302 fastback. But for me the Honda Civic is the perfect car. Reliable and fun to drive. I have never purchased a new car but recently have been looking at videos of the new civic hatchback. I didn't care for the 9th or 10th gen civics so much but I do like the look of this 11th gen hatchback. For me it would have to be the lx so I could have the manual transmission with the 2.0L K20C2. I do not trust the 1.5 turbo to last as long. My problem is I really don't like all the new tech. My first 3 civics had well over 300,000 km on them when I sold them, in fact I gave my 2004 civic sedan to my son and he's still driving it daily with 340,000 km! My present 2010 ex-l only has 162,000 km currently so maybe I'll just continue to take really good car of it and drive it for another decade and more! Cheers and thanks for sharing, I agree with you.

[@RideYEG]

Thanks for sharing! Let me know when you’ve picked up your new ride if you do decide on one. Would be curious to hear your experience👍

[@piercepadre]

I test drove one in 2010 when I was looking for my first car because the car was beautiful. Was unimpressed with how bumpy the ride was. But 12 years later I bought one for $2k to satisfy that itch. Moral of the story, young kids. if you love a car that’s being marketed today, wait a decade to buy it and it’ll cost you a fraction of what you’d pay today 😂

[@RideYEG]

Haha that’s what I’m planning to do with that new Mazda 3 AWD in a couple years😝

[@drbichat5229]

Mine is 2010 4 door automatic with 265,000 miles. Engine is running like new, doesn’t consume, burns or leaks one drop of oil. Negative issue is a reflection of the dashboard light on the screen that you sometimes see at night. That is due to the long and flat windshield and took a while to get used to. Excellent commuter 35 mpg highway. Service is every 5 thousand miles. Make sure to service the transmission every 30 thousand miles, fluid degrades faster than recommended and may start to shift funny if you wait 50 K

[@RideYEG]

Here's to the next 265k miles! You're right about the slanted dash but it makes the vehicle so unique. Drive safe✌️

Your coupe is about 450 lbs lighter than the si sedan. And it’s only 1/2 second slower on the 0-60 than the si. Build up the 1.8 engine and you will have a lite weight screamer. The manual coupe ex is very rare. Don’t sell it!

[@RideYEG]

If I was 17 again I'd personally go with a 4 door Civic for the fuel economy, nimble handling and small form factor. The accord is likely faster (2.4L 4-cyl or V6 available) but imo handles a little heavier than the Civic. Your compromise might be the 8th Gen Civic Si with the 2.0L + 6-speed manual. Let me know if you have other questions I'll try my best to help ✌️

[@dougharding5231]

I've always been a Toyota guy. But I was looking for a fun car, like maybe a Celica. Couldn't find one but I found an '09 Civic EX Coupe with a 5 sp manual. I concur with the review of the drivability, but I'm really disappointed in the quality of the interior. Lots of cheap plastic, much of which was broken when I bought it -- shift knob & boot, e-brake handle, both visors, little hanging hook behind driver, and of course the cruise control switch on the steering wheel. Additionally, it had a bad passenger side motor mount and an oil leak I have yet to solve. Only other disappointment so far is the suspension. It does not take bumps and dips well at all, as compared with every Toyota I've ever owned. Overall, jury is still out on if I'll keep this. Speedy and fun to drive, but that could be said of lots of crappy cars out there.

Hi, my GF and I, we are looking for a first car for her (probably Civic 8th gen or Volvo S40/V50). 8th gen Civic looks pretty cool, but in Europe we've got 4-door version similar to Acura CSX in Canada (and 3-door/5door hatchback). Are there any differences between CSX and North American 4-door Civic (ofc except front and back bumpers, front and tail lights design)? And are there any problems with leaks from sunroof or any other leaks into interior?

[@RideYEG]

Hey there are definitely a lot of CSX’s here but they’re hard to find because people love to hang on to them. I believe the CSX is a 2.0L as opposed to the civics 1.8L. Otherwise just some Acura branded luxury features like upgraded sound system, leather heated seats, etc - similar to what you’d find on my EX-L. I have heard less complaints on the CSX, there’s a Type S version that resales for very high as well.

Do NOT buy an eigth gen with a 1.8 R18 from years 2006-2009. Your engine block could crack. (I saw this info when i first got my 08 LX.. thought "meh" ..) my block cracked. (And so now 2023 where i live, the price of the repair was cheaper then another used car... but, is close to.. the price of the well kept high mileage SI i wanted, before biden took office. (Damn him!)) There are paint recalls, motor mount issues, airbag recalls, engine vlock recalls, and control arm issues. Other then that, great car. Mine has had most the issues listed above (not control arms), and i love it. Im sour that im paying what i would of spent on that SI back then for this engine replacement.. that hurts. I wanna try a K series before they fade away. But on the positive, ill have new motor mounts, new clutch, newish R18 w/33k miles from japan... so im good. Its pushing me to go thru entire vehicle, down to the weather stripping. Aside from the coilover setup, that limits whre i can go, this will be 1 of the most sound FA1s in my area. Love Honda.

@@RideYEG Yes, AC is always on whenever I drive. I think that can be the reason why.

@@ajperez9264 same happens in Pakistan 🇵🇰. Very low fuel average of this Honda Civic. 8-9 km/L . I haven't seen discussion like this in other countries.

Debating over this or Mazda 3 but I’ve only driven 5 speed couple of times, thought?

[@RideYEG]

I have an in depth Mazda 3 vs Civic comparison video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnLOgWugbKeNnZY Both are great choices depending on the year.

Carplay

[@trqrider94]

How does this car compare to the fit in terms of speed/handling?

[@RideYEG]

I haven't driven the Fit but it seems like a really practical and fun car. I'd imagine the Civic just has a bit more power and "drive" factor.

[@Vladg111]

The double dash doesn't look that good and it blocks some of the driver's view. The 10 and 11 gen civic look a lot better.

In 5th gear my Civic sedan does 100 at 2500rpm 120 at 2800 or close to 3000rpm No way close to 4000rpm

Is it an Si?

[@Quest4Unknown]

“Fun” to get 0-60 in 18 seconds and the 140 hp very nice.. dame I miss my focus titanium with all the packages 2.0 160 hp stock and 215,000 when at fault pulled out in front of me. Ford should build small cars again. I hope I’ll buy. So the Honda only offers 16 inch rims and for me the coupe looks better and gas mileage and reliability is where your focus should be. Like a Ford. Lasts forever

6000rpm, do you really think the engine likes it? its stupid to drive like this

[@RideYEG]

Lol it’s not being driven constantly at 6k. Considering the redline on it it’ll be fine, it’s also a Honda.

2008 LX 5 Spd. has 250,000 kms on it and it has never skipped a beat on me. I drive it quite spiritedly but it’s never failed or nothin. 3 years I’ve owned it and I honestly never want to own anything else, besides my PT cruiser that I use for winter driving which is also one of the most reliable cars you can buy(engine wise) for super cheap and maintain for even cheaper.

Amazing!!
