Pros: Everything within reach, sleek design, smooth and quiet ride, great sound system and practically unbreakable!
Cons: Lumber in seats hard on the back, difficult for some people to get out of.
The Bottom Line: This's an absolutely trouble free car that went far beyond my hopes in Gas Mileage and Handling. It was more than a car, it was family. It's worth every penny!
Mine was a '97 Coupe EX, Silver with Black interior and Moonroof, automatic everything. It was the love of my life, my first car with the best sound system I have ever heard in any car even up to date. My Mother and Grandmother surprised me with it ...

Pros: Great gas mileage, smooth engine and transmission, comfortable for 2
Cons: Lack of power with a/c, slow
The Bottom Line: If your looking for a simple car to get you to and from work or school, this is a great car, and also can be great for your kid.
If you're in the market for a used car, you can't look past a Honda Civic. My dad owned a 1997 Honda Civic CX Hatchback. He drove it everyday to and from work, about 40 miles, and I also used to drive it a fair amount. He had the car until about 2000, ...

Pros: Smooth, refined drivetrain; nice ride; stylish; high resale value; Honda reliability
Cons: Weak torque from engine; not the handler it used to be; too common; not cheap
The Honda Civic and its cousin the Acura Integra maintain a cult-like status among the younger generation, particularly college students. That status is mostly deserved since the Civic does a lot of things well and generally lacks any major, showstopper...

Pros: Very reliable, easy and fun to drive, good resale value
Cons: not all models have ABS brakes
The Civic Hatchback is a great little car for commuters. My parents bought a 1997 DX model with automatic transmission, AC, and cassette player to drive to work, and we never had a problem. I drove it myself for 9 months between San Diego and my college...

Pros: Reliable and practical
Cons: Small
The Honda Civic isn't the most exciting car in the world. And it doesn't claim to be. What it is, however, is a practical and reliable car that you can depend on. I have a 1997 Civic, and it drives as well at 3 years old as it did when it was new. I've...

Pros: dependable, cute
Cons: small
I have owned two Honda Civics. Sadly, I do not own either one any more, through no fault of their own. The first one was a used 1986 hatchback we bought as a second family car. It was wonderful. It came to a sad end in a wreck in 1997 but in the...

Pros: Excellent value and performance
Cons: CD option was too pricey
The first Honda that I ever purchased was a Prelude, back in 1992 or so. It was one of the most problem-free cars I've owned. When it came time to buy another car in 1997 I decided to head back to the Honda dealership. I really liked the looks and style...

Pros: cute, nimble, and great on gas!
Cons: Don't count on a high speed race...
Let me start out by saying that I have recently been traumatized in a car accident. I was rear-ended by a careless teenager at high speeds. It was physically harmful and it made me think about safety in automobiles.
I loved my Ford and thought...

Pros: Reliable, Affordable Ride (especially for students)
Cons: Lacks horsepower, not a luxury car
I absolutely LOVE my Black 2-door 1997 Honda Civic EX coupe. It's automatic and I have a CD player. It's small enough for me to park and handles easily. It's cute and stylish, and best yet, it was totally affordable! :) I bought my car used, with 37,000...

After owning a few North American vehicles with less then pleasurable results, I was talked into looking at Honda; I will never look back.

Pros: Honda is fuel efficient
Cons: The Honda automobile warranty
The reason I had bought a Honda Civic is because it has its options of being one of the most reliable cars to go to these days.. It is fuel efficient, sporty, and has all the options that I had wanted. The things I love about Honda are the looks...

Pros: It's Not an SUV!
Cons: It's a Honda, there are no Cons!!
Before I got a car I swore that I would get a Honda, and that after I got mine all my friends would have one as well. Well, that wasn't just wishful thinking, I got my Honda Civic DX in April of 1997, and soon thereafter the four people I told that to...

Pros: Good feel, great economy, nice design
Cons: Not very easy access to rear speakers
Let me start by saying I am 18 years old, so my reasons for liking/disliking this car will most likely vary from most people.
I bought this car about 6 months ago used, and have changed the oil once, and the battery once (the battery was my...
