1982 Honda Civic Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
"Still reliable", "economical", "fun to drive", "cheap repairs and parts", and "great beater" are just some of the descriptions current drivers have of the 1982 Honda Civic they drive.
The introduction of the Civic FE (fuel economy) model thrilled some who wanted more than the standard 40 mpg that most Civics delivered. It was the same basic '82 Civic but the 1.5 liter engine no pumped out 67 hp and offered 41 mpg.
You can still see these old Civics on the road — and usually their drivers are smiling — as well they should given the car's consistent reliability and driving economy. Honda has certainly received a loyal following.

I'm the original owner of a 1982 Honda Civic FE hatchback, and I can't imagine ever selling it. It's 30 years old this year, and I'm giving it an extra nice paint job as a birthday present. People bragging about their hybrid's 50+ mpg just make me laugh. I was doing that 30 years ago, and I can't believe they think it's a new thing. ;>)Feb 08, 2012

Mine was a red Sport with 75 hp. Worked like a charm till my ex killed the engine. "What? I have to fill oil sometimes?" she said after the engine broke.Mar 21, 2008

This was one of my first cars. It was blue with grey cloth interior. It wasn't my first choice for a vehicle, but I needed something reliable. This car never broke down on me. I ended up selling it 6 years after I bought it with 312k miles. It still drove nice, but it burned a little bit of oil.Oct 01, 2007

1982 Honda Civic high rev problem
I just put a refers/rebuilt carburetor on my 1982 civic. When i got the car, it didn't have a carb on it so I'm trying figure out the vacuum lines. As of now, it revs up high as soon as i start it up. the carb was a bolt on and drive. I don't have the canister or air cleaner on yet but don't think that would matter. Thanks
