The 2010 Civic doesn't look too different from the 2009 model, because it's not. The body is the same buffet of triangles, the engine is the same 2.0 Liter 4 cylinder engine, and the dash board still looks like it belongs on a spaceship. Inside is the same well-appointed, well-equipped, spacious interior Honda has become known for. The seats are bolstered yet comfortable. The cloth feels great, looks good, and will no doubt last as long as the car will. The dashboard does take some getting used to, but I actually found the digital speedometer just below my focal point to be a natural location. The only thing I didn't like is how the giant windshield left me seeing nothing but black top. Visibility is important, but the only way to know where the corners of the car are is to use google earth and zoom in really close.

My only big complaint was the Sat/NAV system. It's horrible. Basically, it gives you WAY too much information, almost none of which you need, the color scheme for night driving takes too long to discern, and the view is like looking at a pebble you dropped on a city schematic drawing. It looks like the flight computer on an F-16, but I'm not driving an F-16. My $100 Garmin is easier to read, use, and pay for. Some of the buttons are a bit plasticky, and probably won't look half as good in a few years, but with numerous cup-holders, good rear legroom, steering-wheel mounted buttons for audio/cruise/NAV, and quality materials where you want them, it's a fine space to travel in.
