I'm not complaining about the Civic's price.

Just disputing that it's entry-level. In fact, I'm not even sure it's an entry level Honda. The HRV might be less expensive.
The Civic is a decent value for $25K. Better than the Mazda 3.
But another point you brought up--I bought a brand new Civic GL in 1982. It only had 65 horsepower, no power steering, no AC, I didn't even have a radio installed.
But it was still a blast to drive. It didn't matter that it wasn't fast and didn't have infotainment.
For me, at least, overall performance isn't a factor when it comes to fun. A good seating position, responsive steering, a decent shifter, and a feeling that the car is willing to play is all it takes.
After all, traffic in most of our urban areas, even out into the countryside, is heavy and slow. I was all over the rural southwest corner of Pennsylvania this summer driving to and from bike trails. I managed to get an open road only once, even though I left home before the sun came up.




The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
