Reliable vehicle. Drove with high miles and still rides like new. Gas-mileage, cost of maintenance and build quality are all just some of the factors why this vehicle outlasts most of the vehicles in the car-industry. There are some things that could be improved in terms of appearance, interior and performance; but for a low-priced 4 cylinder car, one shouldn't expect a sports car. It is fairly fun to drive with a few modifications (too many could bring the fun-factor back down). One thing noticed with all Civics from 92-95 is quarter-panel rusts forming between the wheel-well and the body. Must be a result of cheap materials. But over all definitely recommended.Sep 28, 2009

This was the car i had the most fun and experience in... If there was a lot more money involved it would perform like a monster on the track but unfortunately it was stolen and they blew the motor when i didnt have any money so i sold it for $1000 Very clean shell for a minnesota car, no rust and paint fade what so ever... so sad... i had to let it go for soo cheap....Sep 11, 2009

Love the car sleek fast and fun. hard to work on made for little chinese hands lol The acceleration is good nice and quick but too slow off the line needs more torque. the braking is nice i have the car lowered with control bars so nice turning. the rear fenders always rust first on hondas they need to work on that. interior i customized with new flooring,seatd, guages etc. gas milae is very good on them good for stundents. And i have a blast driving it.Jul 10, 2009

best think is curently as a citizen of PAk i must say 95 is best becoz of strong chasis u can put ny engine thats y most ppl instaled b16 turbo engines more than 2000 cc plus the fabulous appearance and u can make it the way u want to look ...another best thing is its road grip its performance is awsome even till now after installing a b16 engine with a super charger its acceleration is more powerful than any other sports car. if we talk about grip and brakes so i must say its a car which gives u feel like the car is stick to the road. moreover the reason behined calling it a ever classic car & a charming1 is because till today al the accessories of this car is availabe in the market. thats why the car gives the owner a prestige and the fun to drive...Jul 10, 2009

a little ninja soldier :) a little ninja soldier :) PERFORMANCE: The 1.6L D16 4-cylinder V-Tec engine producing 125hp and 106 ft-lb smoothly propels the 2200lb car adequately at lower rpm. At higher rpm the V-Tec engages a sportier intake cam profile, and the acceleration becomes lively –the engine spins very well right up to redline. Throttle response is a tiny bit slow. Demanding traffic conditions will necessitate frequent downshifting, but that is a welcome task with the pleasant manual transmission, although the clutch travel feels a little long. Braking is secure and weighted well, though attention needs to be paid to overheat because the discs are only in the front (drums in the rear). The car handles very well and is fun to drive. With a taut suspension setting, body lean is relatively contained through corners with good grip and the ride is moderate, though road imperfections feel harsher as the car ages. Steering is weighted well, with decent feedback. Emergency handling can be a bit tricky at limits or in slippery conditions because it’s a nose-heavy front-wheel-drive car, but is predictable enough to be controlled. Body rigidity could be better. There is abundant aftermarket support for this car. It sits right on the line between the compact economy and sporty segments, but will not to be mistaken for a performance car unless a few key items are modified: the engine (a B-series swap is popular), body rigidity, and transmission are highest priorities. COST/SAFETY /AESTHETICS/UTILITY: Overall the car is very reliable, but excessive aggressive driving will demand a price. At 196,000 miles major repairs were: timing belt, alternator, water pump, radiator, and a suspension arm boot. There was a small unidentified oil leak onto the center exhaust pipe at the time I lost this car. Routine oil changes and occasional tune-ups were also performed. Maintenance costs should be relatively low due to an abundance of parts for these cars. Body integrity is very good. The body panels and chassis soaked up very well all the dings and hits from learning to drive :]. Fuel economy ranged between 31 and 44 mpg, depending on how it was driven. Normal driving in a rural area returned a very good 36 mpg consistently. Maneuverability is excellent, with a very tight turning radius. I lost this car to a lady who rear-ended me in a SUV at a highway entry ramp. My car was knocked quite a distance, but rear-seat occupants would have been fine (maybe some whiplash) from this 4000lb impact to the rear at about 40mph. Only front and passenger airbags are available as far as I know. Because of this and the relatively low and narrow profile of the car, crash safety ratings are fair/average. Many people like the simple look of the car, and I think both the interior and exterior designs were ahead of other vehicles of its time. The window waistline could be a bit higher by today’s design trends. The instruments and controls are laid out thoughtfully. The coupe has less versatility than the sedan, but more than the hatchback. The compact and narrow dimensions of the coupe result in limited interior room and a rather cozy ride with your occupants. Taller (> ~5’7”) or heftier (>~170lb) people will only fit in the front seats while compromising rear seat room. Front seats are shaped rather uncomfortably, with the upper back contoured back too much. the cabin is a bit noisy, with pronounced wind and tire noise. Overall this is a pleasant car that is fun to drive, with very good gas mileage with looks about as much as it performs (both moderate). If you’re a medium to smaller person who wants a reliable fun, economical everyday car on a budget and don’t mind limited utility, this car is right for you. Mar 18, 2009

i have owned one for around 5 years and will never get rid of it, ever. It comes with a 1.5 litre d15b non vtec engine producing a rather lame 110bhp but with a long tract air filter and a cat back exhaust system you dont really care as your ears melt with the sound. I have done 130 thousand miles around 70-80 thousand of them have been pure abuse with poor maintainance and the engine has only just started to complain i am not proud of it but it shows how well built they are. the interior comes with a sea of grey and black plastic but can all be easily removed to be painted if you feel it is required. the seats are unsupportive if you are driving hard but they are very comfortable. The handling is good on stock suspension, they are quite stiff as standard and you dont get much body roll when cornering hard, the chassis is very good for a front wheel drive car with no scary habits, when you push it too much into a corner you get understeer to tell you that you are being an idiot but not so much that you end up in a hedge, its very controllable when on the edge and inspires your confidence, if you crash one then you dont know the car very well.Apr 04, 2008
