  Very reliable and cost effective car - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Paul - November 12 - 9:34 am

  I love this car. Since I purchased it I have spent a grand total of $30.00 on repairs. One of the sway bar links needed replacement. This car runs as smoothly as it did from the day I first drove it. Excellent mileage as well - 40 MPG on the hwy. My only issue is that the seating isnt very comfortable and after a long trip I have a bit of soreness.

  Love my Honda! - 2003 Honda Civic
  By RMartinez717 - November 9 - 5:53 pm

  Well I had my 2003 Honda civic for about 4 or 5 months now and I have to say I am very glad I decided to go with a Honda for my first car. Not only is it dependable and of a high quality, its not overpriced and has great fuel economy so I could do what I love best and drive wherever I please without constant stops to the gas pump. I look forward to driving my car ever time its tons of fun and sporty! And Ive only had to do an oil change, new air filters and spark plugs since I got it cuz I dont know how the other owner took care of the car but so far seems he did ok.

  Best choice in segment - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Jeromey - November 3 - 7:48 pm

  The car has been extremely reliable. No maintenance required except oil, tires, brakes over 7 years. Handles well, agile car, fun to drive with 5 speed manual. Holds value very well, thus probably best choice in the segment.

  Honda Civic - 2003 Honda Civic
  By neenee - October 16 - 10:00 am

  I really like how spacious my civic is. The back seats are great because theres no bump in the middle of the floor in the back, and theres tons of leg room even when the driver or passengers seat is moved back. Also the trunk is awesome, it holds so much stuff, so much space. And if you need even more space, the back seats fold down very nice to make more room. Finally, this car drives like a dream. Ive driven other small cars, and none of them are as smooth, or drive as easly as the Civic. This is an awesome car.

  My best car yet... - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Piet - October 16 - 10:00 am

  Having put 12,000 miles on my Honda Civic Hybrid CVT over the last 15 months, I can say I like it better than the 3 Audis and 4 Mercedes-Benz, bought new, that I had previously owned. (I traded in a late model M-B on the Civic.) Unfortunately, the Hybrid did not come with a moonroof, so I had a top-of-the-line ASC moonroof installed as part of the purchase order. (ASC is the supplier for the moonroofs that are installed at the Honda factories in Ohio.) This is one great car, as near to being environmentally sound as one could hope for at this stage of our technology.

  My Third Honda - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Stan Dounn - October 16 - 10:00 am

  I had owned a used 1979 Honda which gave 150,000 miles. Got 1991 Civic Hatchback based on previous performance of 1979 Hatchback. 1991 gave me 124,000 up to when I saw the 2003 SI. It is a very smooth operating 5 spd vehicle. I would rate it as one of the best small car values on the market. The 160 hp engine is quiet and powerful for town or road driving. The standard sports car features on the SI make this the best driving vehicle I have ever owned.

  the best - 2003 Honda Civic
  By acidjaxz - October 16 - 10:00 am

  As a family of a generation of imported street racing car the newly designed civic has kept up to todays standards, not only in price but also in stlye. I have own a 2001 honda civic which is exactly the same as the 02 and 03 and i have upgraded to street performance (racing modifications) and i am tellling you hold on for the ride. The new civic definatly can be call a civic. Just remember one thing drive smart not fast, youll always win.

  Baby has been WONDERFUL! - 2003 Honda Civic
  By LadyD - September 30 - 12:40 pm

  I bought her brand new on the last day of February. She has been great to me ever since. We did have an issue with her being an overachiever when they had to do the computer recall (accepted 115% programming when she was to only accept 100% and blew the computer). I have taken her to the dealer religiously for all of her scheduled maintenance and had until recently a set of Arizonian tires on her which helped me get better gas mileage yet caused the tires to wear quicker (what do you want in AZ?) I now have a set of Michelin tires which has caused her to have a bit of decreased gas efficiency. I have been averaging anywhere from 28 to 52 mpg. Never giving her up!
