  What Happened To Honda? - 2003 Honda Civic
  By gliattitd - December 5 - 8:11 pm

  I bought this car in 2002 and it has been very reliable until it hit 100,000 miles. The transmission slips terribly, I took it to a service station and had it flushed thinking that would help but no such luck. The service manager said hes seen several Hondas with bad transmissions lately. My first Honda was good for 180,000 miles, died when I wrapped it around a pole.Thats why I bought another one. But this ones transmission started acting up as soon as it hit 100,000 miles. What happened to you, Honda?

  I must acellerate to cross lane on the interstate within .25 miles and enter the interstate with a short ramp. The car perform very well and does not cause me concern about excelleration.

  This car is an amazing combination of economy and comfort. It has a huge interior given its exterior dimensions. It is a good interstate cruiser (on a round trip from upstate New York to Orlando I got 40-42 mpg despite sustained 70-75mph speeds!) and the drivers seat is outstanding given the cars price. There is passenger space and luggage room enough for four people on a long trip. Overall I definitely recommend this car. Im originally from Sweden and have always driven German and French cars. This Civic beats them all, except the latest Peugeot 307 Diesel which is not offered here in the States.

  Best bang for the buck. - 2003 Honda Civic
  By crazygrrrl - October 21 - 2:00 am

  Ive had my 2003 Civic LX sedan for a year now and I love it! Its fairly peppy for a 4 cylinder car but I wish it had more power (my weekend car is a Firebird so Im kind of spoiled by its power). The Civic is reliable and fun to drive. The seats are comfortable and the fuel economy is excellent. I usually get 34-36 mpg with my mostly highway driving. My all time best was 41 mpg for a 230 mile highway trip.

  Its OK but some issues - 2003 Honda Civic
  By gliattitd - October 6 - 3:31 pm

  The car has been very reliable. I have had to replace the drivers side window motor twice now, I hear others have this issue as well. Like some of the other reviewers, min is at 99,000 miles and my transmission is starting to act funny. I hope I dont have to replace like they did!

  What you expect from a Honda - 2003 Honda Civic
  By CSITP - October 3 - 2:00 am

  Overall a great car. The Fit and finish is up to par and the overall drive ability is great. The thing I dont like are, the engine should be stronger, it would be nice to have a vtec standard on all trim levels. The seating position is a little high and can make tall drivers (me) feel a little awkward. And some thing like keyless entry and ABS would be nice without having to get the top of the line.
