A 5-speed automatic would improve already decent performance
Advice to buyer:
Buy through the dealer's web site. I saved $2100 buying this way.
Detailed review:
I traded in my 1999 Civic EX coupe for a 2005 Civic EX sedan this past weekend. The 2005 is definitely a refinement of the already excellent 1999 model. I like the sedan having anti-lock brakes. Interior and exterior quality, fit, and finish are great. The interior is comfortable and laid out very well. There is good power with the 4-speed automatic, and fuel mileage is tops.
Also considered:
2005 Toyota Corolla
2005 Chevrolet Cobalt
2005 Ford Focus
