1978 Honda Civic Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
The 1978 Honda Civic has a few changes from the previous year, but certainly its popularity hasn't changed since the driving public, who still adore its efficiency, continues to increase Honda sales.
The '78 Civic 1978 now has a black grill, new turn signals that no longer look like added on-afterthoughts and are now mounted under the bumper, and rear-facing hood vents. Also, the CVCC engine is now all the way up to 60 horsepower.
The car was used in movies like Police Academy and Back to the Future and you can find user and repair manuals online as well as spare parts.

A rollerskate! Cheap and tinny, but fantastic mileage (33/42) that few cars have ever equaled. Brakes? WHAT brakes? Only chickens want to stop anyway. This was a car for GO! It would hold the road on turns even better than the center stripe. Very tiny, yet more comfortable for me that a big American hog. Fun beyond words. Now, at 31 years old (the car, not me) I have begun to restore it.Mar 31, 2009

This is my project car, a 1978 civic cvcc with 5 speed manual trans. It's been sitting for quite some time, and it does not run. It will need to be completely redone. People say these cars were fun to drive, very economical, and had a revolutionary engine design. Looking forward to getting it running!Jul 20, 2008
