BOOST BLUE PEARL
Total Added Value
$455Description
Finished in absolutely striking Boost Blue Pearl over a Black interior, this 2023 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport combines the clean, modern design of the 11th-generation Civic with something becoming increasingly rare: a genuine 6-speed manual transmission. Add an aftermarket Takeda exhaust, and this Civic takes Honda's already engaging Sport formula and gives it an enthusiast-focused personality all its own.
With 65,282 miles, this Civic brings together a naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive, a short and engaging manual gearbox, independent multi-link rear suspension, 18-inch wheels, adaptive cruise control, collision-mitigation technology, and the tremendous everyday versatility of Honda's five-door hatchback design. The original equipment sheet confirms Boost Blue Pearl was a $455 factory option, bringing the original retail price to $27,700.
But the specification that matters most is wonderfully simple:
Three pedals. Six forward gears. And you decide when the next shift happens.
2.0L Naturally Aspirated Honda Performance
Under the hood of the Civic Hatchback Sport is Honda's 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine, paired here with the desirable 6-speed manual transmission.
There's something refreshingly straightforward about this powertrain.
No complicated hybrid system.
No automatic transmission deciding what gear you should be in.
No need to wait for a transmission to react when you ask for power.
Instead, the driver becomes part of the process.
Select the gear. Release the clutch. Feed in the throttle. Feel the car respond.
Mechanical highlights include:
- 2.0L Naturally Aspirated 4-Cylinder
- 6-Speed Manual Transmission
- Front-Wheel Drive
- 4.10 Axle Ratio
- Electric Power-Assist Speed-Sensing Steering
- Gas-Pressurized Shock Absorbers
- Front & Rear Anti-Roll Bars
- Strut Front Suspension
- Independent Multi-Link Rear Suspension
- Four-Wheel Disc Brakes
- Four-Wheel ABS
- Front Ventilated Brake Discs
- Brake Assist
- Hill Hold Control
- Electric Parking Brake
That combination gives the Civic exactly the personality enthusiasts have appreciated for generations: light on its feet, predictable, responsive, and genuinely enjoyable without needing enormous horsepower numbers to create an experience.
6-Speed Manual Transmission
This is the feature that changes the entire personality of the car.
The factory equipment sheet confirms this Civic was built with Honda's 6-speed manual transmission.
Every on-ramp becomes a little more interesting.
Every winding road becomes an opportunity to work through the gears.
Every downshift puts the driver back into the experience.
And in a world increasingly dominated by CVTs, automatics, hybrids, and electric drivetrains, there's something special about climbing into a modern Honda and still finding a clutch pedal waiting for your left foot.
You don't simply tell this Civic where to go—you participate in getting it there.
Aftermarket Takeda Exhaust
And this Civic has one important modification that makes that manual-transmission experience even more enjoyable:
An aftermarket Takeda exhaust.
The factory specification originally lists the Civic with a single stainless-steel exhaust system. The added Takeda system gives this particular Civic a more enthusiast-oriented exhaust presence than an untouched factory example.
That's especially fitting in a manual car.
Roll into the throttle, work your way through the gearbox, and the exhaust adds another sensory element to the experience—giving the naturally aspirated four-cylinder more personality and making each gear change feel that much more rewarding.
We wouldn't make an unsupported horsepower claim from the exhaust alone.
Its real value is character.
More presence.
More emotion.
And a sound better suited to a Civic Sport that still gives its driver three pedals.
Independent Multi-Link Rear Suspension
Honda didn't simply give the Sport aggressive styling and call it finished.
Underneath, the Civic uses a sophisticated chassis configuration featuring a strut front suspension and independent multi-link rear suspension with coil springs.
The chassis also incorporates:
- Front & Rear Anti-Roll Bars
- Gas-Pressurized Shock Absorbers
- Speed-Sensing Electric Power Steering
- Four-Wheel Disc Brakes
- Front Ventilated Discs
- ABS
- Brake Assist
- Hill Hold Control
That independent rear suspension is an important part of the Civic's character, helping it remain composed and comfortable during everyday driving while preserving the responsiveness that makes a manual Civic enjoyable when the road begins to curve.
It's practical enough for Monday morning and entertaining enough to make you look forward to Sunday afternoon.
18-Inch Sport Wheels
The Sport's athletic personality continues with its factory 18-inch wheel and tire package.
This example rides on:
- 18-Inch Machined/Painted Accent Wheels
- 235/40R18 All-Season Tires
- Compact Spare Tire
- Steel Spare Wheel
The lower-profile 235-width tires give the Civic a purposeful stance while complementing the black exterior trim and vivid Boost Blue Pearl bodywork.
Boost Blue Pearl – $455 Factory Paint
Then there's the color.
Boost Blue Pearl isn't interested in disappearing into a parking lot.
This Civic was specifically ordered in Honda's vibrant Boost Blue Pearl, which carried a $455 factory charge when new.
The intense blue finish works beautifully with the Sport's contrasting exterior details:
- Black Grille
- Black Side Window Trim
- Black Windshield Trim
- Black Bodyside Inserts
- Black Rocker Panel Extensions
- Black Power Mirrors
- Body-Color Door Handles
- Body-Color Front & Rear Bumpers
- Machined/Painted Accent Wheels
- LED Exterior Lighting
It's youthful without looking childish, aggressive without being overdone, and unmistakable from across the parking lot.
LED Lighting & Sport Exterior
Honda gave this generation of Civic a cleaner and more mature design while preserving the athletic proportions expected from the nameplate.
Exterior equipment includes:
- LED Low/High-Beam Headlights
- LED Daytime Running Lights
- Automatic Headlights
- Automatic High Beams
- LED Brake Lights
- Liftgate Rear Cargo Access
- Rear Window Wiper
- Rear Window Defroster
- Light-Tinted Glass
- Black Exterior Trim
- 18-Inch Wheels
The result is a hatchback that manages to look sporty without depending on excessive wings, vents, or unnecessary decoration.
Driver-Focused Black Interior
Open the door and the Civic continues the same philosophy.
Everything feels clean, purposeful, and oriented around the person behind the wheel.
Interior equipment includes:
- Black Interior
- Front Bucket Seats
- 6-Way Manual Driver's Seat
- Driver Seat Height Adjustment
- 4-Way Passenger Seat
- Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel
- Leather/Metal-Look Manual Shifter
- Automatic Climate Control
- Driver Information Center
- Digital Speedometer
- Tilt/Telescoping Steering Column
- Full Center Console with Covered Storage
- Front & Rear Cupholders
- Illuminated Glove Box
- Front Map Lights
- Carpeted Front & Rear Floor Mats
- Perimeter Alarm
- Immobilizer
Piano-black and metal-look accents give the cabin a more upscale appearance without taking away from the simple, driver-oriented layout.
And sitting at the center of that environment is the feature an enthusiast notices immediately:
That manual shifter.
Hatchback Versatility
Here's where this Civic becomes particularly compelling.
It's entertaining when you want to drive—but it doesn't ask you to sacrifice everyday usefulness to get there.
The five-door hatchback body provides liftgate rear cargo access, while the 60/40 split-folding rear seat allows the passenger compartment to adapt when additional cargo room is needed. A factory roll-up cargo cover helps keep belongings concealed.
That means this isn't a weekend toy you have to make excuses for owning.
Commute in it.
Load groceries into it.
Fold the seats down.
Take it on a road trip.
Then find an empty stretch of road and enjoy rowing through six gears on the way home.
That's the beauty of the Civic Hatchback Sport—it can be the responsible choice without feeling like the boring one.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Long highway drives become easier thanks to factory Adaptive Cruise Control.
Unlike basic cruise control that simply maintains a predetermined speed, adaptive cruise technology is designed to help manage following distance relative to traffic ahead while the driver remains responsible for vehicle control.
It's an interesting contrast that perfectly summarizes this Civic:
Modern assistance when you want convenience.
A 6-speed manual when you want involvement.
Honda Safety Technology
Honda surrounds the Civic with an extensive collection of active and passive safety equipment.
Features include:
- Collision Mitigation Braking System
- Forward Collision Warning
- Front Collision Mitigation
- Driver Monitoring Alert
- Back-Up Camera
- Automatic High Beams
- Dual-Stage Front Airbags
- First & Second-Row Curtain Airbags
- Airbag Occupancy Sensor
- Side-Impact Beams
- Rear Child Safety Locks
- Tire Pressure Monitoring
- Front Seatbelt Pretensioners
- Four-Wheel ABS
- Brake Assist
- Hill Hold Control
These systems add modern reassurance without taking away the mechanical involvement that makes the car enjoyable to drive.
8-Speaker Audio & Modern Technology
The Civic also gives you the everyday technology expected from a modern vehicle.
Factory entertainment equipment includes:
- 8-Speaker Audio System
- Dual Front LCD Displays
- Integrated Roof Antenna
- Driver Information Center
- Steering-Wheel Cruise Controls
- Digital/Analog Instrument Presentation
The result is a cabin that feels modern without becoming distracting—the technology is there when you need it, but the steering wheel, pedals, shifter, and road ahead remain the stars of the experience.
26 City / 36 Highway MPG
Perhaps the best part is that all of this driver engagement doesn't require sacrificing everyday efficiency.
The original specification sheet lists EPA estimates of:
- 26 MPG City
- 36 MPG Highway
That gives this Civic the kind of versatility few enthusiast-oriented cars manage to achieve: enjoyable enough to take out simply because you want to drive, yet efficient enough to commute in every day.
$27,700 Original Retail Price
When new, this Civic Hatchback Sport carried a $26,150 base MSRP.
Its factory Boost Blue Pearl paint added $455, while the original $1,095 shipping charge brought the total original retail price to:
$27,700
And today, this particular example adds something that wasn't on that original window sticker:
The Takeda exhaust.
The Kind of Honda Enthusiasts Will Miss
Cars like this are becoming harder to find.
Not because the Civic is disappearing.
But because the formula is.
Naturally aspirated engine.
Front-wheel drive.
Independent rear suspension.
A real clutch pedal.
A 6-speed manual gearbox.
A practical hatchback body.
And in this example, a Takeda exhaust that adds an extra layer of personality to every trip through the gears.
It's modern enough to give you adaptive cruise control, collision-mitigation technology, LED lighting, a backup camera, and everyday comfort.
Yet underneath all of that technology is still a car that asks something from its driver.
Shift it yourself.
Boost Blue. Six Speeds. Takeda Sound.
With 65,282 miles, stunning Boost Blue Pearl, a Black interior, 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder, desirable 6-Speed Manual Transmission, Takeda exhaust, Front-Wheel Drive, 4.10 axle ratio, independent multi-link rear suspension, 18-inch wheels with 235/40R18 tires, Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Back-Up Camera, LED headlights, 8-speaker audio, versatile 60/40 folding rear seating, and an original retail price of $27,700, this 2023 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Manual brings together efficiency, practicality, modern technology, and genuine driver involvement in one incredibly appealing package.
