Yes, even I can give you a list with al the "bugs" I found in my civic, but still I think it's a good car.
We all know the suffering you went through TC, and despite all that, I do believe you liked the car, and hated to see it go. And in this perspective Brod's remarks might hurt even more, but still...
People who want to buy a civic and take a peek at this forum for extra info, might get the impressions that civics are crap, and they are not. Obviously you use a forum more in case of a problem, but let's just give some counterweigt from time to time.

Well said, in all fairness I think most owners love their Civic and the vast majority of the cars have been up to the normal Honda Standards of reliability. To sum up , what other car of it`s class gives so much pleasure and excitement
