This is very good car, I like to own it. It is comfortable sedan with automatic gearbox. I've been using my Honda already for two years. Its package includes air conditioner, climate control, airbags, velour upholstery, power windows and side mirrors, all spoilers (front, rear and side), LCD taillights at the rear spoiler and power adjustments of seats. The 1.6 engine outputs 130hp, its total mileage for today is 100 000. Domani is not big auto but there is enough space inside however maybe little lack of place for rear passengers.

I love its perfect climate control: just set your favorite temperature and all. No matter what season it is. My Honda serves me faithfully the whole year round. The dashboard and doors padded by quality leatherette in addition dashboard has wooden inserts. But still the saloon hasn’t excesses but

the things you really need, also there are no luxuries, its quite simple and functional everything.

Its engine is worth to be discussed specially. Modification ZC 1.6 VTEC has a superb dynamics abilities and power output at high engine speed. The tachometer Read Line showes up to the 7200rpm. I will try to describe my feelings when I first time drive this car. Before 3000rpm it works as the majority of engines of such class. But after this line engine just “explodes” with power. This was very unusual for me that such comparatively weak motor is able for such speed. Its average fuel rate is about 30 – 25 mpg it depends from personal driving style. The gearbox SE4s has efficient shifting but little bit sharp when quick acceleration however you don’t even feel it when drive calmly. The one unpleasant thing is electronic speed limit for speeds more than 110mph. For car of middle 90th Domani has amazing dirigibility. I just fell in love with it. Everything in it including brakes, suspension, steering system was created for comfortable driving upper 60mph. The only one thing about maintenance – you should use only Honda’s repair parts swapping, if you want to drive without problems. For all the time I own my baby I have swapped only driving belt, roll and suspension’s ball joints.

And at the end of my review – if you are going to purchase Honda auto think twice it could become your passion for all your rest life. Cheers!
