Buy a used Civic in Egg Harbor Township from a Honda dealer with certified options

Yes. Boardwalk Honda, at 6807 Tilton Rd in Egg Harbor Township, NJ 08234, sells used Hondas alongside its new lineup, including the Civic. Across 4,604 Google reviews, Boardwalk Honda holds a 4.7-star average, and 88 in 100 of those reviews are five-star. A certified pre-owned Civic gives you a second layer of protection on top of the used car itself, so buying one from a franchise is the path we would start with.

What does a certified pre-owned Honda Civic add over a regular used one?

A certified pre-owned Civic is a used Civic that has passed Honda’s certification process and carries Honda’s own coverage. The program’s eligibility, inspection and warranty terms are Honda’s, stated here as Honda publishes them.

Under the HondaTrue Certified program, Honda covers powertrain for 7 years or 100,000 total odometer miles, whichever occurs first, counted from the original in-service date (American Honda, Warranty Booklet, 2026). Non-powertrain coverage runs 2 years or 100,000 total miles from the expiration of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, or from purchase if that warranty has expired (American Honda, Warranty Booklet, 2026). The vehicle must be up to 6 years old and have under 80,000 miles from its original in-service date at the time of sale (American Honda, Warranty Booklet, 2026).

Honda’s certified program covers 2021 to 2026 vehicles with under 80,000 miles and carries a 182-point inspection and a $0 deductible on covered repairs (American Honda Motor Co., Inc., Honda Certified Pre-Owned, 2026).

How does a new Honda Civic compare with a used one on price and warranty?

The 2026 Civic starts at $24,695 for the Sedan LX, the lowest-priced Civic trim, and at $27,895 for the Hatchback Sport. Honda’s whole-nameplate warranty on the 2026 Civic is 3 years or 36,000 miles for basic coverage, 5 years or 60,000 miles for powertrain, and 5 years with no mileage limit for corrosion.

Those new-car figures are the reference point. Honda’s certified program on a used Civic adds powertrain cover that runs well past the basic new-car term, so a certified car gives you coverage the used car would not carry on its own.

How do you check a used Honda Civic before you buy it?

Ask for a pre-purchase inspection by an independent mechanic. Also read the CARFAX history report, including the one-owner and service history, to confirm the maintenance records.

New Jersey sets a minimum written warranty on used cars for many sales. A used car with 24,000 miles or less must carry at least 90 days or 3,000 miles, whichever comes first. A car with more than 24,000 but fewer than 60,000 miles must carry at least 60 days or 2,000 miles. A car with 60,000 miles or more must carry at least 30 days or 1,000 miles, unless the buyer waives it in writing. Cars with more than 100,000 miles are exempt (LII, N.J. Admin. Code § 13:45A-26F.3).

Before you sign, run the VIN through the NHTSA recall lookup. The tool covers safety recalls from the last 15 years, but it does not cover completed recall repairs or international vehicles (NHTSA, Recalls Look-up by VIN). Manufacturers must fix a recalled safety problem by repairing it, replacing it, offering a refund, or in rare cases repurchasing the vehicle (NHTSA, Check for Recalls).

What fees and taxes do you pay when buying a used car in New Jersey?

New Jersey does not cap dealership documentary fees, so ask for a written, itemized out-the-door price before you sign. The state sets the sales tax and the title and registration fees you add to the price.

New Jersey’s sales tax on a motor vehicle is 6.625% of the purchase price of a new or used vehicle (New Jersey Division of Taxation, Motor Vehicle Casual Sales FAQ, 2026). A trade-in reduces the taxable amount, because the dealer excludes the trade-in credit when it sets the sales price (New Jersey Division of Taxation, New Jersey Tax Guide, 2026).

A standard title costs $60, $85 for a financed vehicle with one lien, and $110 with two liens (New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission, 2026). Dealers must build documentary service fees into the taxable price, but the state does not require them, and the New Jersey rule on them sets no dollar cap (N.J.A.C. 13:45A-26B.3).

What fuel economy does Honda publish for the Civic?

Honda’s EPA-certified figures for the 2026 Civic run from 22 city, 28 highway and 24 combined on the 5-door manual, up to 50 city, 47 highway and 49 combined on the 4-door hybrid.

What should I get in writing before signing for a used car?

Get a written, itemized out-the-door price before you sign anything. New Jersey does not cap dealership documentary fees, so that line item is the one to check.
