My gf and I are planning on buying a 06 sedan this weekend or next and we were wondering what you guys have noticed that is sort of annoying with the car if anything at all. We test drove one and were really happy with it. We just wanted to here a little feed back from people that have had an 06 for a while.
Thanks

 

well, ive had my ex sedan for about a week now and driven it everyday. i'm still getting used to the seat and it feels really stiff. in fact, the way i have it set up it feels like i'm sitting up really straight with no slouch action like my 89 sedan. if i adjust it, it feels like i'm too far from the steering wheel...i dunno...might just be me...and for some reason it feels like my peripheral view is obstructed by the a-pillar. i guess i just gotta get used to the car more and feel it out...i been driving ef civics for the past 7-years and this is my first new car...i love this car but i just gotta be careful cuz i got the ivory interior...

 

^ Too far from the steering wheel? The car comes with a telescopic wheel... use it.

 

^^i do but i still get that feeling. it's just taking me a while to get used to the new "environment" around me i'm just used to EF civics (and older cars in general) cuz that's all i've driven for the past 7 years.

 

Love my Civic. Ive had it 3 months. Only gripe ive had is I dont see 30/40 as advertised and Its developed some rattles in the dah/A pillar area. Going to get the dealer to check it out.

 

I've had mine for a few months and so far it's been good.

The overall build quality is not bad... but it isn't amazing. You'll get some little squeeks and rattles here and there, but the plastic quality is high.

There seems to be a factory defect with the bottom window rubber trim being too short on the driver's side. Apparently, because of this it causes some wind noise at hwy speeds because it's right behind the side mirror (high air pressure zone). But I haven't really noticed it too much on my car.

When you go to the dealer, check some of the cars on the lot, and take a peek at the window bottom trim and find one that's as long as the passenger's side. (this only affects sedans)

Other than that, the car's been pretty good!

 

Well we ended up with a black ex 2 dr. We went there looking for 4 doors and came home with 2 doors.

 

Nice! Congrats :D
