Here’s a more recent picture. One of the wheels had a valve stem hole that wasn’t in line with a lugnut hole, meaning the wheel covers wouldn’t fit. I bought an OEM wheel to replace it and put the wheel covers on, and it looks way better now.
I had an EG hatch back in the day, now a WRX. The Civic was more fun. The Subaru makes me feel grown up. Gotta do all these adult things like change the gearbox fluid when you’re actually supposed to, else the gearbox explodes like a dropped beer.
It’s a 2012. It’s the first year of the 9th gen so yours would have been between 06-11. Not a lot of exterior differences between 2011 and 2012, but the instrument cluster did get a pretty radical overhaul.
Sometimes they’ll keep making the older gen of a popular model concurrently with the first run of the newer gen, so you’ll end up with a manufacture date in the new gen’s model year. I don’t know if this has happened with Civics specifically, but it seems likely given how common they are.
I love my Honda Civic!
That was 6 years ago now. How time flies. <3
Here’s the best feature a car can ever have.
Kitties on the dashboard screen!!

That first pic makes it look like a Subaru.
I have a Honda and love it too.
Don’t you mean a scubado?

I miss my subie. It was a temperamental pain in the ass, but it was a good car with some good memories. 😆
143k? You’re gonna have to replace that thing in another 100k miles or so.
Here’s a snip of the odometer from my 1997 Prelude from four days ago. ;)
Do they really die that early? I thought civics were supposed to be simple and reliable
What model year is that? My dash looked nothing like that, but was way old, like 2012 or so.

Mine was a 2012 as well, actually :) Didnt look like that tho :) probably different markets rather than either of us being wrong :)
Also model year and first registration date can and do differ and which one is used to say what year a car is, largely depends on where you’re from.
