Immediately, the 2006 Honda Civic Sedan’s added refinement is noticeable, both in terms of cabin comfort and engineering. Quiet and responsive, the silky powertrain provides good punch off the line, managed by a fluid gearbox and a light clutch. The steering is linear and quick, and the brake pedal feels great underfoot. The Civic Sedan is definitely your friend in the city, where the only thing to intrude upon your surroundings – aside from rude drivers quick to use the horn – is impact harshness from potholes. Most of the time, the ride is composed, but a bit soft.
