The efficient, reliable, and economical Civic Coupe is popular for good reason. One other quality that is often mentioned when one speaks of Hondas is their high re-sale value. But there really isn't that much reason to sell one of these long-lasting buggies, unless maybe you're ready for a new color.
The first Civic Coupe was built in 1972 on the vanguard of the small Japanese car movement. It was a no-frills economy car in an era when most cars were still rather sizeable. Later in that decade, when the gas crisis hit, Civic owners could smile, thanks to the low fuel consumption of their chosen model.
Times have kept changing, and although the Civic Coupe remains very efficient, it is no longer a spartan affair. The list of standard equipment on even the base Civic Coupe trim is nothing to sneeze at, and several sophisticated options can be added.
