First post, hope this is right. I am back in the Honda fold after years with a Matrix. It was decent, lasted until T-boned by a new driver. I now have another Civic, a well maintained 2005 with automatic tranny :-( . Still... couldn't pass it up, unable find a used Fit with a manual quickly enough. I'm looking forward to future exchanges. It's hard to go wrong with a Civic. Greetings!
