Pros: Excellent gas mileage, always reliable. Cons: It's not all that sexy but hey, it's an economy car!
I bought a Honda Civic LX in 1996 and its been the best car of my life. This car is the first auto I have purchased new "off the lot". The approximate cost was 17,000 (tax, financing, etc.). This was the year Honda switched from the model with all the...

Pros: Gas mileage, handling, nice clutch, competent transportation, it's a Honda Cons: Cheap plastic interior, small, slow, kinda ugly, it's a Honda
I just got a '96 Civic EX 4-door as a daily driver. I have a '68 Mustang that I used to drive day-to-day, but at 15mpg, the gas bills piled up and I was gassing up every other day. The Stang is now sitting next to my '58 Caddy as an occasional fun ...

Pros: Reliability Cons: NONE
I Purchased a 1996 Honda Civic Ex. It now has 40,000 miles on it and I have had no problems at all. The car responds exactly as I expected, it is reliable and the quality is unsurpassed. When I decided a compact would suit my needs I looked and...

Pros: stereo, mpg, styling, comfort Cons: cupholder, gear shift
Yes, I have named my Honda Civic. His name is Bert. Like the Sesame Street character. I even have a little stuffed Bert buckled into the back seat.
Why do I mention this? Because this car has been such a great part of my life that I...

Pros: low-maintenance, reliable, tasteful Cons: none aside from disadvantages of compact cars
It is going to be a sad day when my 1996 Honda Civic LX Sedan begins to die on me.
I chose this vehicle because I was raised on Hondas; my parents had them in my childhood, and the first car I ever drove was an '88 Accord that served me...

Pros: everything Cons: A little cramped in the back for tall adults
I bought a Honda Civic brand new in 1996. This was my very first new car. There is nothing that I don't love about that car. It was roomy for a compact car, and the performance was outstanding. I got somewhere in the vicinity of 30+ miles to the gallon....

Pros: Reliable, Economical, Comfortable and Dependable. Cons: Expensive stereo upgrade
When I got married three years ago, I inherited a 1996 Honda Civic. Working for a Toyota Dealership at the time I was under the impression that the Tercel was a superior automobile. I was WRONG! I now drive "my wifes" Civic and have found it...

Pros: Great mileage, good handling, exceptional value for money. Cons: Slightly underpowered, transmission gear ratios too long.
I acquired my 1996 Civic LX Sedan, stick shift, in 2003. It was $8800 tax, tag, and title. A bit steep, but the car was in great shape. Being my first car, I had little to compare it to, but after driving many other cars, I have to say that it had been ...

I Purchased a 1996 Honda Civic Ex (4 door, Manual) in fall of 1997. It was used with around 30,000 ...

Pros: Runs great, looks great, sounds great! Cons: Small prob. with window wipers
About a year ago I purchased a 1196 Honda Civic Ex. The car was already 3 years old and in excellent condition. I'm not sure if the previous owner took superb care of the car or if the perfect condition of the automobile is due to the quality of Honda...

Pros: Great look, great gas mileage Cons: Seats a little uncomfortable, placement of CD Player
I purchased my 1996 Honda Civic as a dealer demo car with 199 miles back in 1996 and have been thrilled with it ever since.
It has plenty of room, gets great gas mileage and I have had to do no repairs except the normal oil changes, tune...

Pros: Reliable, affordable, good on gas, looks nice, drives nice...... Cons: Not a luxury car
I love my Honda. Love it! My boyfriend and I bought our first car a year ago, a 96 Civic LX and we love it. When we first talked about buying a car, it seemed like years away. We were both young and in school but we were also doing a lot of skiing,...

Pros: reliable, practical Cons: somewhat boring, problems with acceleration
Yes, okay, this car is boring. Let's face the facts. A friend of mine recently said to me, "I thought you were going to be boring because you owned a Honda Civic."
Beyond this, however, the Civic is a reliable, peppy little...

Pros: Good Value, Roomy Cons: Don't have any
I bought my Honda Civic 5 years ago. After shopping for various vehicles I found that it was the most economic. I had a Honda Accord before and had put over 90,000 miles on it and not had a bit of trouble. I am in outside sales and have put about...

Pros: Sporty body for compact, great handling, MPG pleasing, excellent re-sale Cons: If you're buying the Civic, you're missing out on the Accord
I think the worst feeling on earth is purchasing a car and not being satisfied with it. No need to worry about such a thing happening when you are in the market for a Honda Civic. My family has gone through three Civic Sedans in the past 15 years, and...
