Pros: Gas Mileage, Quality, Reliability, Adequate Ride, Can be used as automatic trans motorhome tow car Cons: Manual Steering, Small Poorly Designed Rear Seat Quarters, No Map Pockets, Tachometer. Cheap Glovebox The Bottom Line: Great low cost commuter. Just make sure you do not need to carry more than one passenger.
I acquired my 87 Honda Civic DX from my grandparents. My grandfather passes away (may he rest in peace) and gramma does not need 2 cars. They bought the car brand new in 87 from a Los Gatos CA dealer for $10,700 equipped with "Hondamatic" automatic ...

Pros: Relatively cheap Cons: Small inside
The Honda Civic is a relatively decent car if all you want to do is get from here to there. The seats in this car are kind hard making it a little uncomfortable for the longer trips. The inside is kind of small so there is not that much room so it...

Pros: reliable, cute, affordable Cons: none
I was lucky enough to receive a 1996 Honda Civic LX 4 door from my parents for my high school graduation. You could definitely say it was a move up, WAY up from the Datsun 200 SX I had been driving. At first I was so excited just because in my eyes it...

Pros: Roomy, Fuel Efficient Cons: A little Light, Easily dented
About two years ago I bought a used 1992 Honda Civic DX sedan. It was replacing my old 1984 Nissan Maxima.
What really surprised me about the Civic was the amount of interior room for such a small car. It is the first car that I've owned...

Pros: RELIABLE forever Cons: Accelerates slowly
I bought my 1990 Honda Civic in 1991 after I graduated from college and today, in 2000 at 190,000 miles it is still running strong. I affectionately call it H.C.
This car has run so well and lasted so long that I would buy another civic...

Pros: DEPENDABLE, GREAT MILEAGE, ROOMY Cons: SLUGGISH ACCELERATION, NO "DING" REMINDING LIGHTS ARE ON
I bought my 1991 Honda Civic LX in 1994. It had 28K miles then. It now has 139,000.
The only things I've had replaced are the A/C compressor, water pump, and the radiator. My transmission still runs as great as the day I bought it.

Pros: Just a great all-around little car. Cons: It is 10 years old..
My last car was an 85 Honda Civic CRX that had a ton of miles on it, leaked oil like there was no tomorrow, the dash lights worked sometime and it needed new tires but it still got 34mi to the gallon in the city and never stranded me anywhere.
