Lots of people complain about hybrid battery issues but the primary cause of battery issues is having the car parked for a longer periods of time. Civic is a high mile runner - not a good car to have parked around, but excellnt for running 2500km+ a month.Most people complain about the pulling power - again this is due to bad hybrid battery and therefore lack of electric motor assist. With a proper battery, the FD3 initial acceleration is faster than that of 1.6CC FD4.I used this car for 125000km (2011 model). I did all oil changes on time, used Honda genuine spares and the car gave me very little trouble. And I sold it without much hassle has well (sold within 1 week of advertisement).I no longer use this car but a lot of people who make up stories about this car havent used it properly with proper care.If you look at this thread alone, most advice is to go for a boring car that does not drop in resale value lol. I never listen to any expert opinions on forums like this when buying a car - so far it hasnt screwed me and I've enjoyed every ride I owned.</blockquote>
