    I love my AMERICAN HONDA CIVIC, its got 56000 miles on it, havent spent a dime on repair bills and 13 dollar max at the gas station using the most expensive (91 octane) gas. The power and acceleration is very quick for an economy car. I kinda feel sorry for the people that drive gas guzzling domestics with costly repair bills, hehe.

    After owning several SUVs it was a pleasure to get back into a fun to drive car. Im way out of the demographic group that this car was designed for an get the looks of surprise to see someone my age driving this, but it has been a great car. The comfort (64"), amenities and the performance are unexpected surprises. Fortunately, for those of us who have purchased this it is a great deal and for those wanting a day to day performer that is easy to live with this is the car.

    Faulty cab light was replaced by the dealer. Vinyl molding by the drivers side gets loose and have to be pushed in place. Defrot only with the AC on is very irritating. Sometimes fails to start for no apparent reason. Brakes jerk when applied hard. Apart from that, fun car to drive. Paid a high price. I have owned both domestic and imports, Ford to VW to Toyota. I believe this is the best.

    Had mine a couple of weeks now, very nice car. Got it for 15,885, no one is buying these cars, have not seen any on the road. Very happy so far, car is a blast to drive, very fast. Love the shifter. Gas mileage in not as good as I expected, but I cant keep my foot out of it either.

  • Hands Down the Best - 2002 Honda Civic

    Thank You Honda! After owning a Ford for 4 years and waiting for the next thing to go wrong I finally have a car that does what it is supposed to. Gets me from point A to B with no fuss and doesnt cost me an arm and a leg to maintain. It is a lot more fun to drive then I thought it would be. Also, Chezik-Sayers gets my vote for anyone looking for a new car.

  • New 02 Civic Si Hatchback ROCKS!!! - 2002 Honda Civic
    By -

    After seeing the demise of the Civic Hatch, I was thinking about picking up a used Hatchback DX or CX from the dealer.... but you cant find them! Honda Hatchback owners are SO LOYAL it isnt even funny!! What can I say... The Rally stick is awsome, the car is fast and handles beautifully, even at 130MPH !!! It looks awsome too!!!! (Especially on the inside). Take a test drive, you wont regret it... Oh, word is there will only be 18,000 of them made/sold in the US, then the Hatchs may be gone for good this time! Pick one up now!!! (BTW, most dealer are tacking on an addtl $1000 for the privlidge of buying one!)

  • Very Nice Car all around - 2002 Honda Civic

    In over a month of owning this car, i cant tell you enough. Fast, powerfull, descent gas milleage, very well done interior details, etc.. Feels and handles like a real car, not a toy.
