ProsFun, exiting, and endless amounts of speed Consstopping thats about it

Love This Car — Extremly Fun Tons of power and style that will turn heads good or bad... handleing is good for a Fwd hatch from the 90's stopping power is extremly lacking given front disk rear drum set up, makes it rather scary when decelerating from high speeds interior is updated and rebuilt which makes for a nice time in good weather Cost is very low and insurance even cheaper Primary Use: Commuting to work |

Prosbuilt for dependancy but capable of the race track Consnot a good car to put on a track with stock engine internals or suspention

I Love This Car Hands Down, Has Lots Of Potential For Performance And Dependancy — i love the handling of this car! performance will be beautiful once i drop in my JDM vtec engine! maintainance of the vehicle is fairly low! this is a very fun to drive car, drives smooth although it is a bumpy ride it handles extremely well! but it does need some more work on the cosmetic side of things, its not quite up to par on my expectations as far as visuals go! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Lean, Sporty — First new car I had (had used hand me downs before this one). It was very cool, bright red. I once managed to cram 8 people in this car - don't ask. This car went through hurricane Andrew getting minor dings and bumps. Great little car. |

Great Car To Own And Drive! — It is great as a daily driver; cheap to buy and maintain. Not very powerful, but it also doesn't weigh much. May be modified extensively, so check before purchasing. Very fuel-efficient, even with poor driving habits. Fun to toss around town! Primary Use: Commuting to work |

Civic Hatchback: An Understated Jack Of Trades — The single cam VTEC is lovely as it sips gas even when the valves open up at 2500 RPM and it really gets going. Not the fastest or best handling, but one of the most reliable and nice looking compact hatchbacks I have seen on the market. I have over 175,000 miles and it runs very well and gets 35 to 42 miles mer gallon on a regular basis. Repairs are simple in comparison to other cars I have owned. I have to say that there were many times that I'd volunteer to help a friend move and they would look at the Civic and scoff. They were then surprised as much of their apartment would dissapear as I'd folded down the rear seats and fill the car to the roof from the back of the front seats. I'd just smile smugly... We have fun. I'd buy a new one if Honda would bring the hatchback-back to the U.S. But until then... |

Prosgreat mileage, lots of pep Conscommon rust problem with older civics around wheel wells

Little Car...big On Savings — I love my beater car! Gas mileage over 40mpg and it's got lots of spunk for being a 4 cylinder. I only wish it wouldn't be rusting so bad! It's got over 280,000 miles on it and I haven't had to do much to it at all! |

A Nice Car — Nice performance for a 1.6l car of its age, decent handling, about consumption, it is a sucker between 6000-10000rpm, if you keep it cool (below 5000rpm) it is a regular car. had a few sensor problems, map and L went bad but they were cheap. this car looks bad and it is what it looks..

ProsI love the handling, the hatchback and tailgate, the design of the body, and the gas mileage (35-40MPG) ConsNothing, except for when things wear out, and even then its only temporary anguish

Old Faithful — Well, its by far not a high performance vehicle. 0-60mph in about 8 seconds, but what it lacks in acceleration, it makes up for in the corners. It hasn't always been a jewel, but after removing the rear seats and fabricating a custom, flat cargo floor, its perfect for doing roadside mechanical work (for other people, and sometimes myself) The original motor was a d15b7 (it used to be a DX) with 326,000 miles. I replaced the top half of the engine with a USDM D16Z6 Vtec head, until, unfortunatly the bottom end went at about 504,000 miles. Its currently got another hybrid D15B7/D16Y8 that is by no means a permanent replacement (the piston rings are shot, burns more oil than gas). Time will tell what the next powerplant will consist of. Originally Millano Red, I repainted the car white about 2 years ago due to heavy oxidation on the hood and roof, I plan to return to Millano Red next spring. The Interior consists of DA Integra cloth seats, b&m GSR short shifter with weighted ITR Knob, JDM center console to accomodate my double DIN touch screen, and a few more various JDM and 4 Door parts (Armrest is a must!) Details on the stereo are top secret, for reasons I dont care to share, besides the fact that the original one was stolen presumably by someone that knew about it. As far as quality goes, I bought the car almost 6 years ago for $2600, and besides 2 wheel bearings, nothing in the car originally has totally failed (i dont count the block, it was it's time) Parts are cheap, and until I find something better, she will never be for sale.
