  New Hybrid Owner - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Amanda Trumble - June 11 - 10:00 am

  I just bought my Hybrid this weekend but so far I think its fantastic compared to the Kia Sportage that I did have. I bought it for $19,200 but I had to add a little on since I was upside down on my Kia (a $10,000 depreciation in a little over a year!) I was scared it wouldnt have much power but it has more get-up-and-go than my Kia did, plus its so quiet and smooth. I drive 35 miles one way to work and averaged 45.6mpg (17mpg with my Kia).

  Great car - 2003 Honda Civic
  By TCH - May 22 - 10:00 am

  I was thinking about buying a new Toyota Corolla when I saw an ad from a Los Angeles County area Honda dealer selling its Civic Hybrids for under dealers invoice. I went there, test drove and bought it. Its all what the reviews say about it -- very confortable, quiet, peepy performance, good quality in fit and finish.

  Environment- and human-friendly - 2003 Honda Civic
  By chrislee - May 4 - 10:00 am

  In 99% of my driving its hard to believe Im driving a hybrid. My decision to buy it was partially influenced by New York States $4000 incentive tax bonus, but I think I would have bought the hybrid anyway. It could use more horsepower on the highway, but Im not a speeder so Im very happy with its performance.

  great little car - 2003 Honda Civic
  By PMF - May 4 - 10:00 am

  We like this car a lot. It is extremely thrifty on gas -- we averaged well over 55 m.p.g. highway, and have averaged 46-47 in the city. Weve owned it about 6 weeks, and have had no mechanical problems.

  Good gas mileage. With K&N Oil Filter and Castrol Syntec getting 35mpg at 70mph on 87 regular gas. At 55-65mph nearly 40 or higher mpg. Like the cluster gauge comparing to the the 2002 Honda Civic Ex or older.

  Great Effort by Honda - 2003 Honda Civic
  By whatever22 - April 29 - 10:00 am

  I am happy with my purchase of this vehicle. It feels like it has more than 93 horsepower. I am truly getting close to the 50 mpg this car is supposed to get you. The gauges are fun to look at for many reasons, and the car is actually peppy when pushed a little. Even when I push it hard and with the AC on, I get about 40 mpg.

  seeyaray review - 2003 Honda Civic
  By seeyaray - April 29 - 10:00 am

  I have driven this car since Nov. 2002, durring what I consider a tough winter. This car handeled very well in the snow, and is a pleasure to drive anytime. the only thing I would like to see added to its options is a GPS, other than that it has everything I need in a automobile. Fun to drive and excellent on gas.

  Great Investment - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Wayne - April 28 - 10:10 am

  I have driven several luxury vehicles, decided to try a civic out after hearing all the good things about them. The only thing I can say is a negative is that after 3 or so hours, it is not as comfortable a ride as other vehicles I have owned. However, it is attractive, gets 40 mpg (which is more than the sticker states), is cheap to insure and has a great factory sound system. It shifts like a dream and I have no complaints.

  Honda Civic Hybrid - 2003 Honda Civic
  By Robert H Hight - April 24 - 4:20 pm

  This car has exceeded our (wifes and my)expectations, She is the primary driver using it to travel to and from work. Long trips of greater than 500 miles were comfortable and very economical. We highly recommend it and will purchase Honda Hybrids in the future.

  Ill own this car forever ! - 2003 Honda Civic
  By GordonGump - March 25 - 9:40 pm

  I have had my car for 3 1/2 years and have not had any problems with it at all. The only things Ive had to do with it is new tires, and oil changes every 3,000-4,000 miles. I am glad I have my Honda Civic right now because it gets great gas mileage which is a big thing now with the price of gas. Do not hesitate to buy this car !!!
