Good things can come in big packets too :)

Ever since the Honda Civic was launched it had been my dream car. After ogling at it for over a long time I finally bought one last year. Some of the great things about the car are:
1. decent ground clearance (much better than my previous car, corsa sail). though I think the stiffer suspension also contributes to this.
2. the stiff suspension makes for a great drive. cornering at speeds of 40-60 is a breeze
3. interiors rock!
4. everyone on the road gives a second look to the car :)
5. good pickup
6. excellent brakes
7. finally a car which has both auto up and auto down driver side power window

Some things I didn't like about the car:
1. the stiff suspension can spoil the ride on rough roads
2. the plastic quality is not what I would expect in a car of this segment. in fact I might go to the extent of saying that the plastics in my corsa were better.
3. noise insulation is poor to say the least ... engine noise is like the second music system in the car the volume of which cannot be turned down. further, on a rough road there's lots of uncomfortable noises which make way into the cabin
4. slightly better mileage would have been great or perhaps a diesel engine :)

Good styling, good braking, good pickupmileage, quality of interior plastics, noise insulation
