I have a 2008 2.2 diesel civic. It is my second. My first was one of the first 8th gen made and was not good. I part exchanged it a few years ago for this one. I believe my previous one was taken out of circulation because of its history. I have RSI and find the civic great to drive as the steering is light and the gears are easy. My previous car was a sixth gen 1.6i VTEC. Brilliant but no good if your wrists are painful. I had a concerto 1.6i 16v prior ro that - even better.
Anyway I expect I will meet some of your again on threads about gears!
