Used Honda Civic for Sale in Hayward, CA

The 2005 Honda Civic Hybrid was the last hybrid available with a manual transmission until the CR-Z was released. It's Honda's first step into the Hybrid vehicle market and it definitely shows signs of growing pains.

This car was honestly my first choice when it came to getting a new car. I had driven other sedans (Camry and Accord), and I wanted something a little smaller that would work for just me. This car has quite a few features that I would like to highlight. While this car is a 2008 and wasn't quite up to date technology-wise, I do like the fact that they decided to add the AUX cord for the radio option, while still giving you the CD-player option. The dashboard is very easy to see, and you can adjust the brightness to super bright to very dim. While my car was a manual transmission, having that small area above my gear shift was great to place my smaller items like my iPod for easy access to the charger/cigarette lighter. I do wish that the Civic EX would've had another 12V charging port to allow for the rear passengers access to charging their devices. The center console is also pretty small, much smaller than my Camry and Accord, but I also had to take into account that the car overall was smaller. The backseats were not super roomy, so I always had to have my taller passengers avoid sitting behind me or have them sit up front. I do wish they gave them a little more leg room. The trunk space was great, considering how small the car was. I had more than enough room to fit a tall stack of beach towels, plus a folding bike in my trunk and still have space for my gym bag, yoga mat, and other knickknacks I liked to carry around. Overall, this is a great car for a first time driver, college student, or someone looking for a car just for themselves. This would probably not be suitable for someone building their family as it was only two door, so getting a child in and out of the back seat can be troublesome.
