Perhaps because, at $12,000, $3000 would be a huge deal to some. That's a full 1/4th of the price of a $12k car. I'd also expect a fully equipped $12k Honda would come with a few more features than a stripped Civic DX, and I doubt it'd give up much in the way of interior space, quality, and performance.
In fact, I'd make the argument that most consumers would pick the smaller Honda loaded with features vs. a stripped Civic. Which is probably why we'll see the next Civic move upstream a bit to make room for the new model. They could even kill off the DX model altogether.
