If you appreciate world-class refinement (along with impressive mileage), and you’re looking to spend anywhere from $16,000 to $25,000 for a new car, your test-drive schedule might not continue past the Honda dealer.
If the Civic’s $16,000 starting price is the most you want to spend, you might be disappointed to find out the least-expensive DX model doesn’t include a factory-installed audio system, air conditioning or power locks. Shop around and you’ll find your money goes a lot further at a Hyundai or Kia dealership.
