  Best Little Car On the road - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Wm. C. Zickefoose - July 9 - 2:00 am

  One of the best compact cars w/ a 4- cylinder engine that I have ever driven. It is so quiet that you really can not even here it when its running. I switched to this from 1996 Pontiac Firebird because of the Fuel Economy that you get with Civic. I really can not tell a difference between my old car and this one it is definitely an all around better car. I would have to say that it beats the competition hands down no contest.

  why drive anything else? - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Richard P - July 4 - 10:00 am

  I love this car. In fact everytime I drive it I can only wonder why every car is not a hybrid. The switch from electric to gas power is seemless. The acceleration has not disapointed me. The car has more interior room then my old 1990 Honda Accord EX and better acceleration too. I am totally amazed at how smart the computer is. The car switches from charge to assist with no need for driver input. On the highway the car is very comfortable and cruises at 75 mph without a problem. I highly recommend this car with no hesitation.

  misleading gas mileage... - 2003 Honda Civic
  By sdciviclx - July 4 - 10:00 am

  I primarily bought this Civic for the great gas mileage. I expected to get at least 350-400 miles per tank and am only getting up to 300 miles per tank. Edmunds says this vehicle is capable of up to 501 miles per tank...and after purchasing the car I was very disappointed. I thought it must be the way I drive, since I use premium gas, but several people with the same exact vehicle have the same exact problem. Other than that though, Its a nice, dependable car, and I bought it at a great price $14,700 so I cant complain too much.

  Love this car! - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Sam - July 2 - 7:49 am

  My husband and I bought this car back in 2002. It has been terrific and has had no problems! We are so glad we had foresight to buy a hybrid. Its really fun to drive because you can see how your driving effects your MPG (although it can be a bit stressful at times, too). We will probably never buy a non-hybrid/non-alternative energy car again.

  Canada SIR - 2003 Honda Civic
  By tommy b - June 30 - 1:35 am

  Im from Canada and bought Canada version of si hatch. Bought the car in August of 07, its an 03. Nice car with lots of room had 3 people and snowboards inside. Would definitely recommend. Horn cut out about a month ago along with Cruise control. Brakes are great and so is handling. Stock rims could be bigger/nicer, I got aftermarket rubber and rims. Ground fx package is nice. Drives good in all weather, sunroof is good. Recommend winter tires. This is a great car with sporty handling, keep revs high and car is plenty fast. Great on gas and sound system is great for stock. Dont think I will ever buy anything other then a Honda. Car takes real

  A great car - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Huisonfirst - June 29 - 2:34 pm

  I cant complain about this car at all. I even wanted to pay for my sales persons rotary fines for him. It is such a great car, especially if you know how to maximize the MPG. My average is about 50. I am ordering a sticker that says "60 MPH = 50 MPG". I am also ordering a sticker that says "Relax: U R in the Carpool Lane" for those who try to go 80 in the Carpool lane. To get better MPG, avoid using your brakes, i.e., dont rush up to that red light and brake! We can all save 10% or more by driving reasonably.

  great car - 2003 Honda Civic
  By WKW - June 28 - 10:00 am

  great commuter car. great gas mileage comparing to my ml. good power giving the sides of the engine. 80-85 mph no problem. need better lumber support for long distance driving. dash color dont match overall interior color. auto engine shut off when come to a smooth complete stop. engine will auto restart when the foot is off the brake pedal.
