My Honda Civic is a little go-getter. It is small and compact comparatively, but it can really last a long time and run sufficiently. The radio can get very loud. The space in the car is exceptional given the size of the overall car, and there is enough room in the back seat for people to spread out and not feel cramped. I love that every button and dial is readable or easily managed. The layout of the dashboard is basic and easy to handle. The only thing I dislike about it is that the front cupholders will hold two cups, but when you put the car in drive, the shift knocks into the cups and may knock the down.

My 1993 Honda Civic DX was the smallest, but most fun and reliable car I've owned. However, it only had 2 doors. I owned it and used it on a daily basis for about six years without too many issues. It was small and green, I named her Jem after a cartoon character from when I was young. This old model didn't have AC, power locks, power steering, or even a USB spot to plug in my tunes. It did have a tape deck. Insurance was cheap and it got 41 mpg!
