So Far 92000 Miles and 0 Problems

I bought my 04 Civic VP new and no problems. Gas Mileage is better than advertised - I get about 42 mpg highway. Drive it 70 miles per day and has never let me down. All it needs is scheduled maint. This is the best car I have ever owned. My next car is probably going to be Honda Fit or the New Civic. This Civic won't need a tune up until 110K Miles.

The Americanized Civic

2004 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (1.7L 4cyl 5M)

Cheap materials, Americanized content, mediocre capabilities...not what Honda is known for. This is a harsh-riding little car. The door fabric has come loose from its glue, the clutch creaks at each pressing, door mats had heel holes after 4k miles, hard plastics everywhere you touch, no tint-strip at top of windshield, no lock on glovebox, thin sheet metal, poor sound insulation, pathetic engine performance, but very good fuel economy. I should have bought a used Accord instead. A Toyota is going to be my next purchase after my 4th and last Honda.

Honda Civic, The Best Car Around!

I have owned 4 Honda's now including this one and I am the happiest with this purchase. It's a great car I drive 116 miles to work a day and I can go all week with 1 tank of gas. And it is the cutest, roomiest car around.
