Good Car, but go with the Prius if you need to save on gas

Aug 25, 2008 (A Somewhat Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 40 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: cute, clean, sleek, runs quietly, decent mpg
Cons: could have a better mpg for being a hybrid, small
The Bottom Line: This a good solid compact car with decent mpg.

I owned a '95 civic for about six years before purchasing my '04 Hybrid. My '95 ended up needing so much work done that it was cheaper in the long run to purchase a newer car rather than fix the old one. With the soaring gas prices, I was looking at a ... read more

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: motor, fuel efficiency, price, size, looks
Cons: None that I can think of
The Bottom Line: Never leave your key on your car seat with all the windows closed. This vehicle locks itself after a few minutes if the engine is off.

I have been the proud owner of a 2004 Honda Civic LX since July of 2004. This is my very first car. I decided to buy a new Honda because of its outstanding reputation and I have to admit this little car has met my expectations. I decided to get the ... read more

Pros: Great gas mileage and a smooth ride.

The Bottom Line: Buy it! It will last forever if you keep up the general maintenance and it gets great gas mileage.

I had been a public transportation user for about four years prior to investing in my Honda Civic. I am so thrilled that I went with a Honda for my car purchase. I wanted an economical car that got good gas mileage. I was also looking for something ... read more

Oct 17, 2007 (A Very Helpful review)

Author's Product Rating: 50 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: DURABILITY- Interior, exterior, drive, features-- the works.
Cons: Surpringly, the turning radius! Also, a backseat cupholder deficit
The Bottom Line: An amazingly resilient, quality car that resists anything you can throw at it. Honda's still got it! The 2004 Civic is a winner, and now you'll know exactly why.

Okay, I got bit by the crazy bug, and traded my first car, my 2000 Honda Civic EX (reviewed) for a 1996 Ford Mustang 5-speed!!! Ahhhh crazy world. That review will have to wait, the trauma that made me trade it back for the awesomeness, the Honda, was a ... read more

I recently turned in my 2004 Civic. It was leased. Do I miss it...some, but not entirely. This vehicle provides proven value, no doubt. You will never have trouble selling a Honda Civic, and it resale is a factor this car should score high among your ... read more

This generation Civic not as impressive as previous Civics but a nice enough car.

Author's Product Rating: 40 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Fuel Economy, Acceleration, Maneoverability, Front-Seat Room
Cons: Noise, Brake/Throttle Response, Rear-Seat Headroom.
The Bottom Line: Not bad, but check out the competition first before checking out the 2001-2005 Civic.

One of our cars is getting repaired so we're spending quite a few days with a 2004 Honda Civic Courtesy Car. The Honda Civic for many years has been known to be reliable and affordable transportation. It's supposed to provide economy without damaging ... read more

Pros: Great mileage and the money we have saved on gas.
Cons: Scratches easily and highway mileage could be better.
Our car died Thanksgiving 2004 and we needed a new car ASAP. The dealer offered 2 colors; a charcoal and a pearl/light blue. Unfortunately we are lazy about washing cars and only the blue was available so we bought the 2004 Civic Hybrid and she has

Pros: SAFE, SAFE, SAFE! Dependable, Great gas mileage, large trunk space,comfortable even on long trips

Cons: Not very spacious, small trunk
So far my Honda Civic, 2004, has been the most reliable car I have owned. Before I bought my Civic, I had a 1998 Toyota Celica, which for anyone who knows cars would know that Toyotas are rated among the top for reliablity. I also owned another very
