Pros: Major.
Cons: Minor.
The Bottom Line: Why should I use 30 words when I can use 2000?
After nearly a decade of perseverance, I’ve recently achieved two major goals in my life. I bought a new car several months ago and just yesterday finally mastered an ancient form of Zen in which I can actually hear objects speaking. Since it was only...

Pros: Quick little car with good pep (and mileage), good storage capacity in trunk, compact car
Cons: No clock, little space in back for passengers.
The Bottom Line: I recommend this car to anyone. It is a good small car with enough zip to get by, good mileage, and just enough creature comforts.
I love compact cars because they are easy to park. Living in the San Francisco Bay Area, this can be a real blessing where parking can be hard to find. Turn on the car, the engine is very quiet. Idle seems to be somewhere around 500rpm. Take the car ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Excellent gasmileage, reliable, fairly roomy, inexpensive
Cons: Seating slightly uncomfortable on long drives, replacing speakers takes appart half of the car
The Bottom Line: Bottom line is that the car is more than worth spending the money. It's an excellent commuter.
I bought the Civic LX in January 2001 just when they came out. It was my very first brand new vehicle I owned in the USA. I still own and drive it every day but I am getting ready to buy another car. In the almost 3 years I have owned the car I put a l ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Refined, high-tech, fun, and comfortable.
Cons: Mine didn't come with floor mats, and it has a beige rug. Doh!
The Bottom Line: Buy one, absolutely. This car is comfortable, fun to drive, and if Honda's reputation means anything, it will last for hundreds of thousands of miles.
I really don't enjoy buying new cars. This summer, however, gas prices are supposed to go crazy, and my income will probably stay the same, so common sense prevailed, and I decided to trade in my beloved minivan for a more fuel efficient beast.

Pros: Great pickup for a 4-cylinder, love the features!
Cons: You can't clean the rear window between the center brake light and the glass.
The Bottom Line: I am extremely happy with my Civic!
After my 1988 compact got me reported to the AQMD as being a Gross Polluter (that’s Air Quality Management District for those not from Southern California, and yes, it’s a real agency!), I decided it was time to look for another vehicle. Being a...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Great price, good looks, reliable, fun to drive, fold down rear seats
Cons: Road noise, semi-weak engine
The Bottom Line: Great car and would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable inexpensive car.
The Setting: I was in the market for a new or used car back in late August. I had done a lot of research and I just needed to decide whether or not to get a good used Honda/Toyota/Nissan or a brand new Civic, since they were the only cars I would...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Unquestioned reliability, fuel economy, cheap maintenance
Cons: No ABS, brakes could be better
The Bottom Line: Any 2001 Honda Civic, if maintained will provide many years and miles of trouble-free driving. Recommended!
I purchased my 2001 Honda Civic LX Coupe 5MT in April of 2006. It had 69,000 miles on it, replacing a 1995 VW GTI which had started to mark its territory like a dog and couldn't get up hills without a running start. I couldn't be happier with this car. ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Inexpensive and Reliable
Cons: No fun standard features but at approximately $14,000.00 who cares?
The Bottom Line: Again, this car is for people who merely have good, reliable transportation in mind.
I decided in 2001 that it was time to replace my old 1993 Mercury Topaz with a newer car. The old Topaz saw me through quite a few years but I was afraid it was getting tired. I also got tired of literally standing on the gas pedal, pushing it all the w ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: No 
Pros: safety rating
fuel consumption
interior design
colour selection
Cons: Transmission
Suspension system
engine noise
body weight
The Bottom Line: I would not recomend purchasing any Civic from 2001-2005 due to the issues I have discussed above.
Overall, I would rate 01-05 (7th gen) civic's as decent. However, when one compares them to the 1996-2000 (6th gen) civic's, there is no comparison b/c the former will always be inferior in my eyes. Firstly, when Honda discontinued (for lack of a better ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: Yes
Pros: MPG, cheap insurance, pass through rear seats handy, 20 yr olds think it looks cool.
Cons: Uncomfortable seats, rattling dash, dents easily, windshield rock-chips with slightest insult.
The Bottom Line: Safe, economical, fairly reliable commuter or kids car. Resale value is excellent. Don't expect comfort or a tight ride.
I've driven this car for 52,000 miles and am reasonably happy with it, but not overjoyed. I bought the car for its reportedly good gas mileage and reliability, not its comfort. I got some of the first,little of the second and none of the latter. ...

Pros: Fuel economy,look,power,and pretty much everything
Cons: hard to replace rear speakers.
The Bottom Line: Great car, Perfect for anyone looking for a good car without spending too much money.
After a bad experience with my ford explorer I decided to look for something else. After noticing the amount of civics on the road I looked at some. After driving this car for the first time I realized why there were so many. The drivers view of the road ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: No
Pros: Drives smoothly, great safety rating, corners well, great shifting on the manuals!!
Cons: More repairs than expected, not as reliable as I had hoped!!
The Bottom Line: Be careful of your purchase!! Do not buy the first model year! A great car, but for some reason I got a lemon ?
I happily bought my first new car (2001 Silver Honda Civic Coupe), in December of 2000. I thought I was buying a quality made, reliable car. After 3.5 years (83,000km)...this is what I know to be true... The body of the car has held up well ...

Pros: gas mileage, reliability, steady resale value, sporty handling
Cons: road noise, rattling sounds, no ABS, repair costs
The Bottom Line: Great buy for a new driver/ college student.
MY car is a LX 2 door. I got it used at the end of 2003 and have had it since then. It was my first car and I did all the usual mistakes that new drivers do. I tried to turn the engine on when it was already on, put it into neutral instead of drive, ...
