Used Honda Civic for Sale near Ferriday, LA
This review, written in the summer of 2006, looks at a 21 year old car — the 1985 Honda Civic — many of which are still on the road. Their drivers often have a love hate relationship with their Civics, but as even they note, what other make is still around and driving 20-plus years later?
All the '85 Civics remained unchanged except for enhancements to the CRX models and a late-in-the-year change to the wagon, now offering it as a 4WD with 6-speed manual transmission.
Naturally, the CRXs were receiving most of the public's attention, given their sporty look and performance. Maybe that's why Honda added the changes that gave the CRX Si a 1.5 liter fuel-injected engine with (for Honda) an awesome 91 hp. A sunroof became standard; so too did sport seats. The CRX HF for high fuel economy had the 1.5 litre engine, too, but its 8 valves gave it better acceleration in city driving, but only 58 hp. But, given that it achieved more than 50 mpg, who cares about the hp?
Complaints for the other '85 Civics are that they are noisy and bumpy and that the 60 hp makes it a tad difficult to pass other cars. But at least one owner of an original '86 Civic Si said it was a really fast car with "gobs of go."
4.4 Overall rating
(15 reviews)This was my first car when I went to Uni. It had been in an accident previously, so had the newer (more powerful) engine dropped into the older lighter body - hence it went pretty fast! (Well, for an 80's civic, anyway). A very fun car to drive - feels like you're racing all the time. Also very forgiving. But with all old cars it was starting to get a bit tired and needing ongoing maintenance.
good acceleration.. good handling.. easy to drive.. old model.. oil consumption reasonable.. economic.. good design.. the front is like the hatchback and toyota AE86.. not so common to come across one in the road.. next time you see one.. do respect :0)
This was car was dope! I drove it back and forth to Chicago twice! I pad $500 for it and didn't have to do a thing to it until it finally blew a gasket and busted a lifter.
" My 1985 Honda Civic was a Car Of Cars !, The Silver exterior, with Grey Velor interior was one of the nicest 4 door Honda's I had been in in 1993. I had several friends who owned Honda Preludes, And Accords, The Car's performance was not realized until I had The motor tuned, and such, but that was the beginning of a n ongoing assault Of my wits.The car lived At Plaza Honda In Brooklyn N.Y. The service Dept personell all knew me by name. It had to be taken back 27 times!
my 1985 civic requires little fixing and it ran like hell, just keep it tuned and no problem. i out ran a 93 turbo charged suzuki GTI easy, beat other newer civics ,send them come i'm always ready myfriend.it is noneturbo but squeeky clean anyone here in toronto wanna give me one.please thank youvery much.
