Anyone else think these have aged really well?

WRONG

I have had two friends agree.

Yes. I’ve always liked the sedans, but never really cared for the coupes.

CSX is better.

Yeah, but we can’t have nice things down here. Not that that stops them from occasionally sneaking across the border.

I love the old Acura Civics

I say YES. I’m not a Honda kind of guy but this Civic was seriously cool when rand new and I think it still looks cool. I find them futuristic looking.

Each new generation of Civic makes the last one look better. It’s part of their scheme to prop up resale values.

This is actually the correct answer.

Nope.

I would’ve agreed with you up until about 2012. Maybe.

Hot Take: Most cars from around 2007-09 have aged well, they look modern but without all the fake vents and trim that new cars have.

That Civic is so bland.

Ours started off looking something from the norm

I didn’t like this generation them when it debuted, but now I rather like the facelifted model (amber rear turn signals, three-spoke steering wheel, extra venty things in the front bumper corners).

Yes, even when it was new, I thought it was a design that would age well. One of the last gasps before everything became tacked on piano black plastic trim, giant gaping grilles cut down into the bumper, fake vents, fake windows, aggressive fender flares, and wild diagonal creases leading nowhere.

Yeah, I have to agree. Think of how many current compact cars resemble it now, the Cruze and Elantra are clear evolutions

Yes! I thought these looked awful when they first came out. Now I think they look great.
