Older Civics, well, you'd have to look at Honda's overseas products, like the Brio... but those don't quite meet NHTSA or NCAP crash standards like the Fit does.

Mirage. What some of us here are driving now.
Of course, it's nowhere near as good to drive as an old Civic... the pogoing on the racetrack is insane, and the MIVEC variable valve timing is nowhere near as entertaining as the VTEC on an old Civic Si... but five star (NCAP) crash safety and even decent small overlap crash safety... plus incredible mpg... what more could you ask for?
