Mile ratingNo known defect pattern for this model year
The 2021 Honda Civic is not on our list of model years with a widely reported mechanical or electrical problem. That is a point in its favour, not a clean bill of health — this car's own history still matters, so check the VIN report and get it inspected.

The verdict
The 2021 Honda Civic LX FWD is listed at $12,284 with 145,245 miles. The Caboose score is 7.4 out of 10, built from three things: how far below market the price sits, how much of the 200,000-mile target is still ahead of the odometer, and how often this model reaches 250,000 miles in the iSeeCars study (15% of Honda Civics do).
The asking price is within a few hundred dollars of the CarGurus expected price of $12,600, so the discount is thin and the deal rests on the car itself. That puts it in the middle of the pack, so treat it as a candidate to compare rather than a car to rush.
