Impressive numbers for a pedestrian Civic. However, the "all-on" characteristic of the CVT kills some of the fun.

The car also allows you to 'shift' (evident in the video). You don't have to drive it like a CVT 100% of the time.

even though it's pointless, it will give an illusion of control.

Engineers for the new Civic adopted premium noise-isolating materials and design features to achieve a new level of cabin quietness in the Civic class. This includes the adoption of new methods to measure and reduce air leaks in the Civic body that, based on Honda's internal test data, is the most tightly sealed body in the competitive class. Full body air leaks have been reduced 58 percent compared to the previous Civic.

Premium noise reduction features include:
Acoustic glass front windshield
Triple door sealing (Civic first)
New hood seals
Sound-absorbing heat baffles and body undercovers
A, B and C pillar separators (Civic first)
New rear wheel house liners
Formed fiber carpeting (Civic first)

It's been a while since I have. I was basing my comments on the engine sounds and rpm sequence in that particular video.

Decent mpg numbers.
Sticker prices just keep creeping and creeping. Not too long ago, mid-20's used to be a loaded up Accord. No question the topic of price spill-over and cross-shopping between the Civic and Accord is going to pop up in the showroom.

Base models yes but the EX-L Accord is $5K(4 cyl)-$7K (6 cyl) and Touring Accord $8K more than the EX-L and Touring Civic.

If that tachometer needle gets any shorter, you'r going to need a magnifying glass. At this point, just dump the needle and make it all digital.

Kind of funny how "big" compact cars have gotten. Its wider and only 4" shorter than a 2000 Accord, and has about the same amount of interior room and trunk space. Also getting big is the price, at least for loaded ones. $27,000 for a Civic is just plain silly IMO, you can get a nicely equipped Accord for the same money.
