Honda, The Car Everyone Needs

Honda, The Car Everyone Needs

Beep! Beep! Beep! Goes the alarm clock in the other room. Oh man, surely it can't be time to get up yet, you think to yourself. As you scramble out of the bed and into the shower, the thought crosses your mind, I hope my car starts. You take the quickest shower possible and eat breakfast so fast you almost choke and then realize, I'm still going to be late for my 8 o'clock class. You race out of the house with your keys in your hand, jump into the car, and damn it won't start. Then, you think to yourself, could this day get any worse? If this sounds like your typical morning, then I have the car for you.

What kind of car do you drive? Is it a piece of junk that is falling apart? Are you looking to buy a new car? Are you attending college presently? If you answered yes to the majority of these questions then you could be in the market to buy a Honda Civic.

Every college student should own a Honda Civic. After all the Honda Civic ranks as the best selling compact car in America. Why wouldn't it be? Being affordable, reliable, durable, safe, economical, compact and sporty, with low insurance rates, and not to mention achieving great gas mileage makes this car the best. This car has everything I look for when buying a new car and more.

Price affordability is definitely the first thing I notice when looking at this car. When going to college most students don't have thousands of extra dollars lying around, so price is one of our main concerns. Price is an extremely attractive factor when looking at a Honda Civic because they are highly affordable starting around the low price of $14,000. If your one of those people that must have all the accessories and options, then you can buy a Honda Civic nicely equipped for around $16,000, which as you can see is very affordable when compared to others in its class.

This very affordable car also has a reputation for reliability. A reliable car is beyond doubt what a stressed out college student needs. The reliability of a Honda Civic doesn't compare to other cars in its class. All American auto makers and many foreign ones envy its reliability record. The company stands behind this car by providing you with a basic warranty of 3 years or 36,000 miles. With a warranty like that, this car must be reliable.

Not only is the Honda Civic reliable, it also is safe. Buying a safe car should be a major concern for college students especially when considering the accident rate in this age group. The Honda Civic has no problem with safety. It includes all the latest safety features including: dual front air bags, safety cage with front and rear energy management zones, front and rear door impact beams, collapsible steering column, side-impact air bags, and anti-lock brakes. An important side note is that the crash test results for Civics have been so consistently good, that it has been rated an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety "best pick" among compact cars. To achieve this honor, Honda Civic manufacturers must have had safety in mind.

Of course safety is important, but what about gas mileage? Great gas mileage is another reason to own a Honda Civic. College students need something that gets good gas mileage because as I said before generally funds are running short. With a fuel economy of 32 miles per gallon in the city, and 37 miles per gallon on the highway, fuel cost will be one of your least concerns. How many other cars in its class get that type of gas mileage? It seems amazing that this car gets such high fuel economy with its 1.7-liter engine and 127 hp. You will not only get good gas mileage but also have plenty of power.
