The Civic’s split dash was apparently generally hated, but I really liked it, for just that reason… The year after mine they switched it back to a single cluster, which I think is unfortunate
Oh my SIL had one of those for a while, it looked pretty nice.
Our Mazda projects the speed, cruise control status, and icons for vehicles next to us on the windshield. It really is very nice - one of the few things about that car that I actually like.
What are the things that you don’t like? I’m in the market for a new (used) vehicle and Mazda seems to top a lot of charts for the past several years but I’ve never driven one.
It’s not a bad car for what it is, but I find it slow, uncomfortable, and annoying to drive. I don’t need a screeching alarm going off after it misinterprets a situation. The entertainment system has several bugs in it.
It handles well, and it does get good fuel mileage.
I wouldn’t have bought it in the first place, but my wife wanted something smaller than our Accord, and she basically only drives that vehicle.
I am partial to the windshield projection style. It is truly fantastic for keeping your eyes on the road while seeing your speed
I’m dying for good windshield HUDs
Volkswagen has a pretty awesome one but it costs like 10k more for that level of trim.
Even worse, then you have to drive a Volkswagen
What’s wrong with that?
They’re notorious money pits, partially because they’re also notoriously stupid to work on.
The two-tiered cluster of my Civic really grew on me. The speedometer is up really high so it’s almost always in your line of sight.

Don’t they sell add-on projector Huds which snake a wire down to OBD-ii port?
I love my HUD, I’m currently driving a rental without one and I hate looking down at the speedo.
