The Honda Civic represents the sport compact or "tuner" crowd whether we sport compact fans like it or not. The last generation Honda Civic Si and Type R (in Europe and Japan) are the latest of a great line of sport Civics from Honda. I myself came from a Honda background, I'm currently driving a supercharged Ford Focus, but the Civic well always have a special place in my heart and mind.

The Civic is the only car I've ever owned. Two over the course of twenty years. I'm not in the "tuner" crowd... Just an Average Joe with the need for reliable, efficient transportation. Everyone should have at least one Civic in their lifetime.

Was I the only one who saw this episode? The car they actually drove was a 1972 Honda 600 Coupe. It was fully described and displayed. The 600 series was sold in the US from 1970 to 1972, and had nothing to do with the Civic line of cars.
