I own a 2003 civic ex coupe and has only had a few minor issues . 02 sensor, horn stopped working for a bit but then started working again . It currently has 313486 miles and counting. Drives straight, starts every time, and no rattles. Road noise is just a little louder than I would prefer but i have learned to ignore it.

Overall pretty decent car, had some defects that should be fixed. The Value is decent maybe a bit overpriced for what it is.

i loved my civic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! never had to change the brakes, clutch, exhaust, or anything! the only thing i ever had to do was regular maintenance. the only reason i had to get rid of it was because it was no longer big enough for my growing family. but i miss it every day! gas mileage was great. it even handled well in the snow! and it was my first standard car....and it still ran well! lol

Well, it was the first car I ever bought. Lucky for me though, the person I bought the car from was an avid race car driver. And he said the car up for street racing. That being the case, the car handled amazingly well. Though the low skirts were a constant problem when driving in pot-holed streets - it was a speed demon on the highway!!! The luxury finish on the interior assured a comfortable drive. Though the airconditioning was its only weakness. - It was worthless on a very hot day in the Philippines!!! But other than that, everything was good. Nice leg-room. Spacious trunk and interior. Nice dash and side panel designs ad a stable engine.I'd recommend ANY Honda to any serious car buyer.

Honda Civic, a vehicle that has been constructed since the Oil Crisis of 1973, has evolved drastically in both size and equipment. The first Civic was a relatively "small" vehicle, with few or no creature comforts like a/c, radio, and many others. Over the years, this car has grown in size and in amenities. Today, this car is perhaps one of the best-selling nameplates due to it's fuel economy, power and features. However, this review will be based on the Honda Civic 2000. This car, owned by my dad, has been in service for eight years and in those eight years, it has proven to be extremely reliable. Thanks to its engine, providing 106HP with a displacement of about 1.6L, this car has a relatively good acceleration, but should be stronger and have a little bit of torque. The dashboard is dominated by a 140-mph speedometer with the fuel and tempearutre gauges on the sides, but it should be equipped with a tachometer. The seats are very comfortable, yet this car is small for a person as tall as I am, so I had to move the seat backwards, thus compromising the already-small space of the back seat. The cupholders are enormous and the dash is designed so that a "king size" bottle can fit perfectly and that's a good point. The space in the trunk is relaitvely small, with no domelight to illuminate it at night, but the seats fold 60/40 so that more cargo can be loaded with at least 3 passengers. Overall, this is a very safe car, with ABS and driver-passenger airbags and a durable body. If I was to re-design this car, I would give it a bigger engine, longer dimensions, and a standard tachometer and I would reduce the price of this vehicle since $23,000 is a lot of money for this car. It should also have many more features standard.
