Review

Bought a 1990 Civic to save gas. this car has 170,000 miles on it and still runs great! I'm very pleased with the durability. It has survived many years of northern Minnesota weather but continues to run like a new car.

Favorite Features

Gas mileage, reliability

Review

I bought this car from my brother-in-law with 75,000 miles. It has been a great car. In summer I get 40+ mpg although I do mostly highway miles. No gizmos just basic transportation. The mileage is comparable to hybrids but this vehicle was built 18 years ago. I wish Honda would offer an updated version of the '90 Civic with simplicity, convenience, and quality in mind. This is probably the best car I ever owned.

Favorite Features

Basic, simple transportation. The only statement this car makes is when you go to fill it up.

Suggested Improvements

Better defroster. The windows really fog up in the rain or when there a more than two people in the car.

Review

I have had this car for 6 yrs now. Still running strong. I have replaced many part on it my self. The clutch was the hardest thing to do. Other then that afew things here and there and mostly for under $100. I have stripped the car inside and out many times. I love this car. I get around 32-38 mpg but thats after taking the ac and dash out. Next will be turning it in to a mini truck. Hope to get even better mpg. All in all a great little car. Easy to work on.

Favorite Features

mpg. the rear windows. hatch back door.

Suggested Improvements

Take a center console from a 1992-98 acura integra and install. now you have a arm rest and cup holders. Also make a cover for your trunk releases handle. Notice that 92 and up civics have locks on them. Bc it's easy to break in to with the trunk release.

Review

I had this car as a gift from my Uncle. He had been using this to drive to work 120 miles a day until I had it 10 years ago where I drove 110 miles a day. Never had any major problems. Engine is phenomenal - never been repaired since we got it. On top of that, the engine still sounds like brand new, very quiet. Only bad experience with this car was when I had to push it from a freeway to an exit for a gas, it was my fault though - I ran out of gas. However, at an average of 38 miles per gallon with today's gas prices - you'll definitely will try looking for this COLLECTIBLE piece of treasure. I love this car!

Favorite Features

Stick Shift (Manual Transmission)

Suggested Improvements

Airbags and console box on both front driver and passenger seats

Review

Bought my Civic new, still love it after 252K miles. Nothing but routine maintenance and replacement of parts you would expect after that much mileage! Mostly city and highway driving.
