Average car driver: "100,000 miles is too much for a used car"
Honda Civic owner: *hold my beer*
Bought a del sol 94 with 240k miles, drives like a dream for 1200 bucks.
256 and going strong baby
I had a 95 Civic EX that had well over 270K miles when I sold it to my friend. Even up to that point, it ran well without significant issues aside from standard maintenance. I have no doubt it would have made it to 300K and beyond had my friend not totaled it shortly after buying it.
Muslim Civic owners: *hold my Pepsi*
My dad's got 443K km😊
Dude actually REALLY got emotional bout this episode WHILST making it, and cried. now that's a honest down to earth bloke if i ever saw one and is exactly why i already got subbed and absolutely LOVE this channel.
Same.

When a gown man breaks down and cry from his love and passion from his work I have to like the video.
I'm not a donut OG but I've been really into your stuff over the last year, still catching up. Finally watched this Civic episode. I teared up a bit with you James. Thanks for making the show. You fellas are fantastic.
Seeing James cry legit brought a tear to my eye. Thanks for all the videos. I hope you all continue to produce more awesome content.
Same.
willosteel2k1 it just made me laugh lmao
Best car channel on youtube. In my opinion. congrats
Came for the VTEC, didn't expect the FEELS

Damn I’m just discovering this channel as I’m looking for my first car. Seeing how emotional you got at the end was shocking you guys are dope! We appreciate your work and the time you guys put in to your videos.
Cool to hear! Welcome to the Donut community! They have some videos actually on starter cars if you wanna check 'em out!
Another key facet of this car is the amazing affordability of ownership.. when I was young and stupid I dug myself into some debt in the 1980s.. In need of a car in 1990 I bought a little red base Civic hatchback (and when I say base I mean base.. vinyl interior, no a/c, 4 speed manual, no power steering, not even a radio in the thing or a side view mirror on the passenger side, etc) and it just ran and ran and ran for a decade until I needed something bigger because we started a family.. but my point is literally nothing ever went wrong with it, and I was able to dig myself out of all debt because the car didn’t bleed me to death with repairs like its predecessors. And now that son who was born for whom I gave up my Civic 20 years ago has grown up and bought his first car, a little red Honda Civic (but his is a sporty coupe EX model with all the creature comforts). Thanks for a great video about a model that will always be special to me.
Big man with a big heart
Sloth 702 jessica
Sloth 702 And in that very moment , Pumphreys heart grew 3 TIMES AS BIG and everyone at Donut 🍩 Inc. were showered with gifts and kisses!
Authentic guy with passion on cars. Greetings from Poland.
Got to love our chubby buddy
He truly loves what he does
Seeing James cry at the end and hearing his voice shake......that's real passion right there. I felt that
can we have a tshirt that sayys"Everything You Need to Know" that would be a good merch
I was thinking the same. 🤔🧠👉👕👍💯👉👕”Everything you need to know "👈
On the back needs to say “To get up to speed!”
Ikr
50th anniversary
‘sniff’..... they grow up so fast.......
to bad his dad wasn't there to see it
Hahahaha James couldn't hold back his tears XD
2023 is when the Honda Civic will celebrate its fiftieth anniversary; with the Honda Accord celebrating its fiftieth anniversary in 2026.
i'm not crying you're crying
I’m cutting onions, sorry.
P.S. it’s kinda exciting to see yo here on Donut’s page!
Hmmm...a Periphery / Donut Media collaboration would be AWESOME ;) I know they're two of MY favorite things.
oof
Misha Mansoor I came looking for this comment. Was not disappointed!!!
Nolan from donut media is also a djent fan... there was one episode he was wearing a meshuggah shirt and also playing bleed by meshuggah in one of his cutaways
Bravo man! Another great episode. I fell in love with the Civic with my first gen CRX way back in the day. I drove that thing into the ground but it was a really sad day when I had to let that car go. I did not have a lot of money and with a new family it did not make sense to try to keep that car around after it kept breaking down. Fast forward more than a decade later I am back in the Honda family with my new 2019 Honda Civic Type R! It did not happen over night but it did happen and I could not be more happy. This truly is the BEST Civic EVER MADE! Keep up the great work!
Can't get enough of donut man thanks for the hard work and passion man you guys got my support forever just for this moment appreciate everything seriously
God dame it y did u have to cry at the end man 😭😭😭 we love you daddy James here is 2 another 5000 ✌🏽🍻
I almost cry too :'(
I cried like a bitch
Pumphrey cried in front of us...fucking Nolan wouldn't do something like that.
Made me cry too. Goddamn Pumphrey.
Daddy James hahaah
It's kinda crazy to think that I've watched every 50 of these vids since yall started making em
0rang3z x2
X3
the question is, are there even 50 cars in the world?
Right crazy i didnt realize ive seen 50 up to speeds
0rang3z it's kinda crazy to think that I watched every 50 of these vids in the past 2 days
Another great video, Thanks donut team! Been watching these for ages now.
Always had a soft spot for Civics, about 6 years ago I bought mine. It's done over 100,000km, still feels tight, and I honestly wouldn't change it for anything.
While looking for my first ever new car, I tried many others, Lancer, Focus, i30, Mazda 3, a Kia, even Suzuki, plus a bunch more that I can't remember, and the Civic was the only one that made me really like it. the Mazda 3 was a very close second.
Being able to take my mind off things and just learn about cars has helped me in life more then a lot of other things, thank you so much for putting out the videos y’all do. The hard work y’all put in every video is very apparent and means a lot to me, thank you.
This comment is exactly what my situation is and this channel just helps a lot. Donut is awesome 💯
When another man cries, and it’s about a car. I feel like it’s an invitation to cry too😭🍚🍚🍚
Low-key wiping my eyes bruh.
Me too there’s something of seeing a homie get comfortable enough to cry
It was about the channels success though...
🤣🥳
Yes
Seeing James Cry, Makes me Cry😭😭😭😭😭😂
Wasnt going to subscribe until i saw the end of this video. Seems like a truly humble man, i know this video is 2 years old now but i can only hope he is still this way. Your passion moved me tonight man, thanks for still putting out great videos
Brother the last part was from the heart ❤ thank you for all the great hard work you bring us every time , you helped a lot of us stay sane 2020 I've watch old episodes and new ones I always laugh my ass off, and learn something new.
See you at 550 episodes, Mr. Pumphrey.
Boy did 50 eps come fast.
Channel is extremely helpful. Thank you so much, the work behind all your videos through all who help you out is extremely valued and appreciated. Thank you Donut! From the bottom of my heart ❤️
I never doubted this channel, and James also deserve all the love. Not only I learned so much about cars by the efforts of this channel, but James made it so fun to watch a literal history lesson. Yes, this is a history class and everyone is enjoying it thanks to James 💯👏
OMG ive seen 50 of these? Lol
Michael M right ? I thought the same thing

P.S. you have a great channel and team and deserve every ounce of praise you get!!!
I’m having to rewatch some of these videos, love seeing how far U guys have come since the start... it’s awesome, we love u too!!

Didn't know you guys watched this! Awesome!
You made me tear up at the end.

FunkoPop Fun1976 lol wut. Im done with youtube for the night😂
Jeremy Dosser Good night. Sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite. And if they do hit them with a shoe
This is the third video I’ve watched by you guys and I love the passion and care you put into these videos. It’s informative and emotional
Hey guys! Love your videos. I'm not a car guy, but I'm slowly turning into one thanks to you... keep'em coming!
This is the only CZcams video that brought tears to my eyes that wasn’t about a dying dog, thanks #donut
Curtis Campbell *Actually*
Exactly!
Samesies
What if James says "I love you" at the end of every episode because he never heard his dad say that to him and thus Pumphrey is like our dad
that's a good dad, ill take it.
Except he won't leave us like his did
*_Pumphrey's a good guy but I ain't callin him daddy pumphrey cuz that shit's weird._*
*_Better than my dad_*
my student is hospitalised today, she loves civic & mustang. so id sent her this vid & the stang as a form of medication. Thank you James & Donut for the videos.
This is the reason I love this guy so much. He is true, passionate and amazing. Love u buddy
Mr Pumphery I cried with you!
Evan by the looks of it many other people did also.
@@15october91 I didn't, or rather I couldn't....but I felt happy for him
Doughnut media is the Top Gear of CZcams
Doff M definitely
For me, not yet, but They are going there for sure, and I hope they made it..
Nah I'd say car throttle. These guys tend to be a little like the crash course for the car world
correction *the old top gear of youtube* the new top gear is hot garbage in my opinion
car throttle is rubbish lol
I've seen this video 5 times, and I will never get tired of it. I'm a Honda Civic fanboy. Also, the end was wholesome. I love watching this video and the channel's other content. p.s: I felt emotional when you started crying, keep doing what you're doing man. :)
Man I have been watching since the beginning! I love what you do and how you do it. Keep it going it will get bigger than you can imagine!
I am proud of Donut Media. Good job team. We adore your work. 👍👍👍👍👍
That big guy cried, so beautiful ! ❤ Nice job mates, love it !
HAPPY 50th ! I Love cars and your channel and your work! Keep it up guys!
Thank you donut, thank you! I wasnt that into cars until I started watching you guys and you all got me engaged in the auto world
Ohhhh...james, watching you cry it's like very very touching my heart... Love every single of your episode...
Hamdan Raditya I know,so touching
Hamdan Raditya same
We love you James!
Holy heck making me cry over here. I love you guys and thank you so much for not only making me laugh, but for teaching me so much about some badass cars and history!
For real though you guys rock and all the work that goes into all of your content really shows.
Keep up the good work & Congratulations!! Thank you for doing everything for the fans and its very informational!
My nephew just got a 10th gen civic as his first car. Came back to this vid to get some ideas and inspiration… but damn. Donut has really grown so much since this video was uploaded. Pumphrey still being there makes it all the more better cause imo he carried a lot of early donut (as well as Nolan)
So cute you crying by the end of the video 💙
The crying episodes always get me and remind me that this is a channel made by people who have a passion for cars.
Lets not forget he is an actor ha :) not hating on James or the channel, just saying
Joshua Silva damn, we got a cynic in aisle 3 i repeat we got a cynic in aisle 3
Joshua Silva you’re a moron.. if you couldn’t tell that was sincere then you have some issues pal!
@@GL4SS_20 I agree, thought the same
I honestly sometimes forget it is Thursday until new get up to speed uploaded
Janson Mathew I actually always know when it’s Thursday bc I can’t wait for up to speed it’s almost like a Friday going into a weekend for me haha
Love you guys! This is the best and most entertaining Car Channel on CZcams!
Bought my first car this week (10th Gen Honda Civic Sport) and just HAD to come rewatch this video
Honestly one of the best channels on CZcams. Congrats on your 50th episode and all of your incredible success!
Patrick Adair Designs your channel is awesome, that is all
cory thomas thanks my dude!
Patrick Adair Designs what’s a ring maker doing out here lol
At the end of vid ... damn ... something got into my eye..
love this channel so much, i never used to be on youtube till i got hooked on it. i hope automotive classes show their classes these videos
Ive been watching your videos for the past week but the last part of this vid is what made me subscribe :) you guys rock
Hey dude were just suscribers dont thank us dude we thank you for your time in giving us content that isnt crap and worth watching
"do you guys realize how hard is it to make this exciting?" LOL
This stung a little because he glossed over the 9th gen si and I just bought one.
juan Gomez I just bought a 10th gen and he only talked about the type r :(
@@juanGomez-lz6up And the 8th Gen Si was a big deal when it came out. Honda took it's production version to 24 Hours of Thunderhill and kicked all sorts of ass to prove it.
Likewise 8th gen owner and sad he glossed over it considering it came with a good motor compared to the EP3 and better geometry.
@@pedrogomez5835 yeah he showed a 9th gen refresh as a 10th gen. I have a hatch sport. Kinda stung
👍I know I’m late to the party here. I can’t believe I just found your videos. I’ve been a tuner guy since I was a kid in the 90s. You are authentic, hilarious, and very knowledgeable. I appreciate the hell out of your content my dude. Planning on a binge fest this weekend. 👍
Love the passion, i'm about to be a Honda civic owner soon...this video helped me "make-up-my-mind"...Peace !

Seriously, Dunut media it's the best car show right now by far. Forget about motor trend or top gear. These guys put you fixed to the screen like no body. Congrats!
I’ve only ever owned civics, 3 of them; 02 lx, 15 ex, now I’ve got my 19 sport. Each one a milestone, headlining a new era of my life. This year I was gunning for the new 22 si, but I’m not paying 5k over for it 🤮 but great video, pulled my heartstrings a bit too. Well done.
I love this guys he makes me feel like I know about cars
well you know a little more now. Kudos on the research. ;P
Irvan Martinez fr
me too. i dont even know how to drive and ride a bus to work lol
Irvan Martinez 😂😂
Kevin Milo nice name
how you make this episode , how you find all the details and how much time you spend for all your work for one episode because you always come up with very detailed videos.
Jaspreet Singh Is this a question or a compliment?
We will take this as a compliment sir... 😂
Brian Galvez it’s both
Well they didn't include the 96-00 civic except for the ek9 type r
Very detailed but like the Evolution video badly a few of them are just incorrect.
congratulations DONUT MEDIA. i have learned so much more about cars from. watching your show. and today I"ve learned something new again. good job guys. BTW is Nolan really your son? I thought that you two are brothers.
bro your the most passionate person ive w=ever seen ive been subbed for like 4 years now
Honda make me cry too. So affordable and good.
So true😪🔰
🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭🤤The affordability 😬
And trudtable
*trustable
The "affordable" part is questionable tho, or maybe they're expensive just in my country where people here go insane for Japanese cars
All you need to know is Vtec just kick in yo bhaaaaaa!
Mike Arredondo 😂😂
Mike Arredondo lmao 🤣
Mike Arredondo >barely gets up to 60 after a mile
Mike Arredondo yep you’re right since Honda now has the front wheel drive record and tied for the rear wheel drive record out of a 2 L and the competitors use v8s still get the same numbers hmmm;) you tell me what the future has done
Roam Free Ford figured out forced induction like 20 years ago

This channel is the best channel on CZcams. I learn more here every week than anywhere else . Now a request, I NEED a Squarebody Chevy episode! Pleaaasssseee
We love you buddy, keep making awesome content!
50th episode? Really? Well happy 50th!
Matthew botha for the series it’s a pretty good milestone considering they release so much every other day
You missed when the Big 3 couldn’t keep up with the new emission laws in the 70’s. They told the government it was impossible, and General Motors said that CVCC may work for “toy motorcycles,” but has no place on a real car. Soichiro got so pissed that air lifted a big 350 V8 Impala from Detroit to Tokyo and he had his R&D team make custom CVCC heads for it. Then he shipped it back to the US where it passed the new 1973 emissions standards. Soichiro had to fight and struggle to become a major Japanese automaker. He wasn’t about to take shit from the States.
Master Xehanort so what you're saying is the American muscle culture so permeated the industry that instead of trying to make a cleaner engine, they just deemed it impossible and said "slap a cat on it"
To add to the story the engine passes without catylitic converters.
Master Xehanort holy shit thanks for this, I'm going to share this story a lot. Good old lazy greedy irresponsible American companies.
Honda made an Impala meet 73 emissions without a scrubber? o.O
@ernisill It's not that American companies are lazy(er) or greedy(er), at least not more than other countries companies. It's just that they have the lawmaker's ears here and can lobby/bribe to get laws passed that are good for them. Japanese couldn't (in America). But Japan has plenty of it's own tomfoolery with laws and regulations about cars. Every company everywhere is going to try to play this game. Don't blame them. Blame the politicians. If they didnt pass such shitty laws we wouldnt have to worry about this stuff.
That’s passion, always watching. Thank you
Hey guys. I came across you guys on fb and love it. Thank you for your educational and entertaining format. I love the historical episodes, the DIY episodes and, well, all your episodes. I wonder if there would ever be an episode for the Buick Riviera from its first year, 1963. Thanks
10:01 manliest tears ever man. I'm crying to. Thanks for the rad content donut media given us every week. I'm in tears also man. gud luck for hitting 1 Million subs. T_T

*Fun fact: If you reverse to read civic, it still the same*
That is a fun fact!
Yeah, the word civic is a palindrome
Fun fact: your grammar needs work
Also the word racecar. I learned that on the disney channel when they were promoting the cars movie.
THUNGUNSPRO *X* You forgot a period.
