I liked my 2014 Civic EX. It was my first Honda and purchased exclusively as a daily commuter. But the 2016 EX-T gives me everything I was missing in my 2014:
- Turbo/more power(the 2014 was pathetic)
- Style
- remote starter
- XM/Sirius
- Apple Carplay
- heated seats
- a 2 foot deep cup holder

The other factor that pushed me over the edge was watching the trade/resale value of my 2014 drop like a rock over the last 2 months since the new design was released. I traded much earlier than I normally would have. (only had the 2014 for less that 18 months but had almost 40k miles) But so far, I'm very glad I did.
