Great Car; Some Frills

This car was exactly what I expected, and more. My disappointment lies only with the engine. It's 92HP engine makes me hesitate before passing (the car is very responsive, but weak). The car has great handling, and seats very the front passengers very well. Other than the engine, however, I have to complain about the height. The car sits so low that not only his an interesting experience getting out of the car, but it tends to scrape across the bottom when traveling over speed bumps. Don't get me wrong, though, after seeing friends with other compact cars (even newer cavaliers seem less luxurious), this car simply blows them all away

Endurance is Key

The car is now 12 years old with 140,000 miles on it. It still looks great (repainted in '98)inside and out, and it's NEVER failed to start for me. I get the oil changed religiously every 3,000 miles, but I'm not otherwise too careful with service.

We bought this car new oh some 13 years ago and still love it. Its extremely nimble (saved me from an accident at the last second), simple design (utilitarian), and just looks great. I realized how great the looks were on Hondas/Acuras in the early 90s and how the looks deteriored later on in the 90s... but its starting to get its spunk back.

I purchased this car with 120,000 miles and one and a half years later it is still going strong at 170,000. Very trouble free, my Civic just gets up and goes every day no matter what punishment I throw at it.

I totally loved my car, enjoyed it for over 13 years. The car currently has over 222K transmission is starting to give up.. otherwise, the car never gave me any problems. It was totally reliable, I Maintained it properly. I will miss my car terribly. I have a new car, and was still using my Honda Civic DX Sedan because it was my favorite.
