Hey guys! I know this video is going to generate a lot of dislikes but these are just the 5 things that I dislike about my 21 Sport Hatch. These are my personal opinions of the car. But it clearly doesn't mean that I regret buying my 10th Gen Civic. In fact, buying this car was one of the best decisions I've ever made!

Point 1) You bought a mid-spec hatchback. Of course there's plastic. The NSX is like 120K and has plastic lol. Nobody buys Honda for interior quality. Point 2) The car already looks aggressive enough. It doesn't need a fake wing to make it look riced.. Point 3) If you want a brand new car with over 200hp for less than £25,000, you're screwed. Affordable performance is a thing of the past if you want a current car. Even the new GTI only has 245hp and that starts at over 30k! Get a ktuner if 180 is too low damn. Point 4) FFS mid-spec. Point 5) Were you expecting a Bose? Bro you seem pretty out of touch with what to expect from cars. You even threw in a ram air intake for no reason lol.

I don't get the complaints about the plastic. Most modern cars have plastic in all the same places. I had a 2011 WRX and it had plastic bumpers, grille, spoiler, and side skirts.

This IS in fact a fast car, in the corners. This chassis was not built for straight-line speed, much like its bigger sister, the Type R. The Fk7 has the exact same chassis as the Type R minus 2 welds to the frame that the Type R has. This is a fast cornering car. I do "spirited" driving with my FK7 on many mountain pass roads over here in California with many other Spirited drivers/cars and I am able to keep up with, or "pass" more expensive/ higher performing cars. you have to realize the FK7 is a tuner's car, much like the Si.

i own a 2020 sport hatch, and believe me the sound quality issue has very little to do with the stock speakers. in fact, i just replaced mine with $350 infinity component speakers and i could barely hear the difference. (mid and bass wise) the infinity tweeters are much crisper though. so what i think is that the stock 180W HU is just not powerful enough to drive those speakers. and about the rattling noise in the doors, i purchased sound deadening mats from amazon and insulated all 4 plastic door panels and the sheet metal of the doors, you will be amazed how good those mats are. they basically eliminated all the rattling noises. (make sure to insulate the plastic clips in the door panels as well) i took the time to insulate the door sheet metal. now when i shut my doors, they dont sound filmsy, hollow anymore...they sound solid like they are from a more expensive car.

I understand about the lacking performance but if that was an issue you should’ve just gotten the manual. Their tuned from the factory with more torque and its overall more engaging. And if your looking for performance the cold air would’ve netted you more gains . Also these engines aren’t meant to idle for 10-15 minutes. You honestly just need to let it warm up for a minute or two and let it warm up gradually by driving.

My previous car warmed the car up minutes after I start the engine without driving. My other car (a vw golf) also does the same.

Let’s face it, if anybody wants performance then get the Type R. This car is just for the looks, seriously. You can see people testing this car in many videos here on YT, they step on the gas, it takes a while for the thing to get going! Firstly, the CVT, second, turbos have lag and thirdly is a 1.5L engine. Honda sells the sport badge as if it has tons of horsepower, in reality, it’s all about the looks… car sometimes sits lower, bigger wheels thin tires, stiffer suspension, aggressive LOOKS, you step on the gas… goes nowhere!!! The complaint about plastic, everything is plastic… including headlights… you’re probably too young but they used to be glass. If anybody wants metal then you need to look at cars from the old days!

Nice review! Just a note about plastics: the plastic parts are mostly made of ABS, Polycarbonate, or Polypropylene, plastics that resists heat well while being lightweight. If those parts were metal, then the car will be heavy, therefore making the car slow. Unless you live in a ridiculously hot environment (like a desert), the likelihood of the plastic cracking is extremely low. For me, the one thing I hated about my 2021 Civic Hatch Sport was the halogen lights. I got so use to the bright HID lights on my old car that I struggled to drive at night with the Civic. I usually drive in poorly lit roads at night, so having bright LEDs is a must for me. I have LEDs now on my Civic, but I might change out the tail lights with aftermarket ones. Maybe Mugen-style or something. Can't wait to see how your build turns out during your ownership.

I buy cars for a living and yeah, the front and rear ends on every other car built in the last couple decades or so is all plastic. Even high end cars like BMW and Mercedes, there are plenty of plastic on those also. I have this 2021 Fk7 and I agree with most of what he said. You are correct about the sound , but the speakers really are crap. And that warm up thing I believe is for people in colder weather. There is a oil dilution issue that affects those in the north. I think he lives in PA. My other issue is the connection on the Car Play.

With the CVT you lose almost 20ft/lb of torque and some few HP. And its far from a "sporty" gearing too. I have a 2017 with manual and its plenty of power for an entry level car with only a small 1.5L engine. Gotta remember they had to keep some room for the Si that is closer to 200hp. I've had a Fiesta ST also, and sure its a bit more power, but its a 1.6L and the transmission is a lot more agressive. And well, plastic is part of all cars these days. Lighter, easier to make, and safer during crashes. Its a civic afterall, they're supposed to be cheap.!

The only neat picking I complained about is the dead buttons on the interior (by the gear shift and by the lane departure button) for me they should not put them there at all( I drive an EX) But majority of it works for me even with the Honda Lanewatch because of the Pillar on the right back corner

Most of the body panels and bumpers are actually made of fiber glass or “plastic” for lower costs, weight savings, and most importantly for safety. Old cars used to be made of metal but car manufacturers soon realized that it was dangerous if you were to get into a serious accident. Also wanted to comment on performance. It’s a civic hatchback sports trim level. Doesn’t mean it’s a sports car lol if you want power, go with a Type R, STI, Evo, Golf R, etc. Yes, it’s obviously going to be more expensive but performance is going to come with a price. You can’t really expect much from a fuel economy car even with bolt ons.

Thanks for doing this, planning to get one myself. But what I hate from Civic in general is that I cannot lock the doors with remote when the engine is running and I step out of the car. Even Nissan Sentra can do it. Am I really the only one who occasionally step out of the car for a few secs w/o turning off the engine? For simple things like throwing away trash, getting my cellphone that I forgot from inside the house... I used to do food delivery driving Sentra and that feature helped big time so I didn't have to keep turning off my car when delivering the food to customer's door...when I got back to my car I just needed to unlock my door and ready to go.

I have a 2020 sport touring hatchback, and i agree with the speaker raddle in the front two doors. It seems to come from where the handle on the door has its own separate plastic piece. I'm thinking if I put a piece of black thick foam on the inside of the door when it closes it'll push there and keep the raddle down. Not a deal breaker at all and in my experience it seems a lot of new cars have this issue.

I ended up parting with my 2021 Civic EX hatch after a year. I bought it as a road trip/cargo car last year, which it excels at, but my 2014 Wrangler is paid off, so I wanted to enjoy not having payments for a few months (and I recouped just about every dollar in the sale). The other reason is that (as a 6'1" dude) it was a little uncomfortable to get in and out of. Well, not a little, it was actually pretty annoying lol. I also didn't like the turbo lag or whatever would cause the acceleration to lag briefly in Normal mode. Sport mode mostly resolved that, but compared to my jeep it just lacked that punchy acceleration that I prefer. I don't know enough about cars to know why the jeep seems to have better low end torque, but I think it's part the engine design and also the fact that it's useful when off-roading. Otherwise, my only real complaint was the infotainment, which was definitely not the best or intuitive. I did have one issue where the AC stopped working, but they found no leaks and it seemed to have been resolved after refilling the refrigerant. Also, there was a minor rattle on the dashboard that I never figured out (wasn't bad enough to research, but I'm sure that might have gotten annoying after a while as well). Otherwise, it was a good car with some good handling and really good fuel economy/cargo space.

This is so cringe to watch. Of course over half the car is plastic. Go find me a car in that price range that isn’t. Also that plastic isn’t going to expand and crack in the summer. There are people with older cars in perfect condition. You’re expect all cars have metal or something? Metal costs more. The engine is easily tuned its 450 or under to get a Hondata and Ktuner. Go compare it to the Corolla hatchback in that price range, and even lower and the Mazda3 performance. Your headlight complainant is kinda dumb. You’re buying a car in lower trim, they aren’t gonna include leds in them. Before you buy a car they literally list it. If you hate it so much you shouldn’t have bought it . Side maker has to be orange, go ask whoever’s in charge of the cars why they need to be orange. Nothing you can do besides change/mods. Speaker with the rattling noise why not pull off the panel and fix it. Doesn’t take much. Heater worked fine for my 2017 hatchback. It doesn’t take 10-15minutes. It just takes longer for the car to warm up, but it’s not that bad sounds like you’re being unreasonable. Install remote if you want it to warm up more.
