Hello, I'm trying to decide on a new car, potentially this civic. Can you please answer the following?1. how many actual miles per gallon to you get? what kind of driver are you (mostly freeway, local, etc)2. how much did you pay "out the door" at the dealership?3. what are the main things you like about your 4 door Civic LX? thank you.

OK I bought a used 2002 civic LX so the price won't help you that much but, last summer I calculated the gas mileage and I got about 35 mpg. I am mainly a loacl driver. The main thing I like about it is its reliability. Never had any problems with it, and good gas mileage.

1. A Honda Civic is going to get 30 city mpg/40 highway mpg. Most Honda owners will get at least this if not a little better after you get about 5,000 miles on it.2. If you want a real hassle free deal. Go into the local dealership, find one in stock and offer them $500 over invoice, which would be $17,444 plus tax, title and state fees. The key here is finding one in stock...if the dealer has to locate it for you, which they can do, there is a lot of paperwork that has to be done, a driver to pay, ect and they are going to want another $200 to get it for you. Not that an extra $200 is going to hurt you financially. It will only raise your monthly payment about $5 - $7 per month.3. What's not to like. #1 It's a Honda. #2 The only thing your missing from the Ex model are the alloy wheels, sunroof, steering wheel audio controls and available navigation system.
