Used Honda Civic for Sale near Birmingham, AL
The 1983 Honda Civic seems to be the first time that owners actually voiced any complaints — and those are today's complaints. Drivers find that the lightness of the Civic (about 1200 pounds) makes it difficult to get good road traction and other complain that it rusts (well, after 24 years, it's hard to expect otherwise, I'd think).
The Civic S was introduced in 1983 to begin competing with other sportier cars. The '83 Civic S had a rear stabilizer bar for firmer suspension and announced itself with an encircled S so everyone could tell that you had the best and newest and sportiest little Civic.
Used '83 Civics are considered by lots of used car owners and buyers to be the "best transportation bargain on the planet." And, if you look hard enough you can still find some decent ones for sale. Also, if you're handy, there are loads of spare parts and repair manuals to be found online.
4.7 Overall rating
(8 reviews)1983 Honda civic. it has now 150K and i bought it with 113k 4years ago. I've had to do some small repares on it but other than that it is pretty tip top as far as a 25 year old daily driver goes. what more can i say , it was cheap ,it's cheap to drive and thing still goes and goes.
This was the "FE" model hatchback and was the 1st auto to have an EPA highway rating of 55 mpg! I put about 70,000 miles/year for 3 years - only service work performed - brakes and clutch. The actual mpg wasn't that far of!!!
Cherry red, 5 speed, 4.10 final drive ratio and a rear ant-sway bar.On! And Michelin 185's stock! Ran about 18.3 seconds in the 1/4 mile.
1983 Black Honda Civic 1500 "S". Pocket rocket! Rev happy engine, precise 5 speed shifter. Comfortable for long distances in part because of "S" only seats. Averaged 42 MPG for the life of the car. Absolutely reliable, not one problem in 128,000 miles. Still looked and ran like new when I traded it for a Miata. Wish I still had the Honda!
This car replaced my 1980 postal jeep and gave me a few solid years of service before getting donated to the American Lung society. It was cool to drive a miniature station wagon. It was a blast to drive, yet a little bit scary as I would barrel down route 202 in western mass with a crew of friends crammed in the back like a clown car.
