I like it just fine. The bumps are a little less harsh in the Civic. The handling isn't quite as nice though, more body roll (DX has no sway bars). The Civic has a good amount more pep to it for sure. You don't need to downshift like you do in the Insight. The Insight seats are more comfortable and I like the lower seating position vs the Civic as well. The Civic shifter is quite vague (or I'm still getting used to it), quite unlike the Insight which is a fair amount more notchy which I like. Overall, its a great vanilla car.
It'll be interesting to see what kind of mileage I get in it. EPA rating is 27/34/30. I think 40 mpg should be easily doable in it without any real fancy driving. I don't think I'll have the car on the road long enough to do any mods to it, so it'll be bone stock while I drive it. Tires are at 50 psi though.
