    I got this civic coupe in jan of 03 ..since then the only problem is the windshield washer which is kind of sissy at higher speeds when it sprays. car is lot of fun ...I used to drive a souped up saturn stick before i got this one and a Mitsu Mirage before that and drive the sentra every now and then but well when it comes to driving fast without making a fuss the sentra gxe is no match it feels its going at 100 when its just doing 60 while its the other way round in the civic

  • Not too bad - 2003 Honda Civic
    By -

    Ive had it for almost week. All controls are easy to reach and use while driving, nice cup holders and storage. Adequate power off the line and passing. Handling is responsive and comfortable, the brakes are touchy. Auto-stop is nice when at a drive through (easier to hear and talk with the people for ordering, etc) Adequate sound system. Easy to install child seats into it. Minimum of wind and road noise. Fuel economy on my first tank of gas was only 37-40mpg highway (I commute 110 miles a day, so it was dissapointing) I refilled the gas tank, my trip odometer read 466 miles and 40.4 mpg, I put in 12.4 gallons which calculated to 37mpg.

    I have just purchased a 2003 Honda Civic LX Coupe. After owning a 2000 Civic VP -- This was a slight upgrade. All - in - all this car feels rock-solid, Very Affordable, considering what you get. Sound system very clear, nice punchy mid-low end. 5-speed is very smooth. Ride is very comfy, bu could use a touch more power, though Im pleased with the power it has, it is certainly adequate. I love it, and will continue to buy Hondas in the future.

    My wife loves it, the kids love it, the dog thinks its the berries, whats not for me to love about it? It negotiates city traffic effortlessly, has excellent climate conditioning, a nice sound system, a cute little sun- roof, and ours is equipped with a silky smooth 5 speed gearbox that rewards the effort of shifting your own gears with lots of fun. Its practicle too, with 28+ city mpg, and room enough for my 63" self, 53" wife, 8yr old and 5yr old to take a weekend trip in. (31mpg) I have to admit though, next time itll be the Suburban. I highly recommend this car if youre looking for a small sedan.

  • I love my Civic! - 2003 Honda Civic

    I absolutly love my Civic! I have had it for about 4 months and I would buy another one in a heartbeat. You cant ask for a better car when it comes to gas mileage. In the time I have had mine I cant find any major faults in it. Hagerstown Honda is a wonderful dealership to deal with. I couldnt have asked for a better experience.

    After buying this car I was very satisfied with the gas milage and power. The power isnt as much as an s2000, but its good enough.

    I am extremely happy with my little Red Honda! It is such a cute car and fun to drive! I would definitely recommend it for anyone, well maybe not for a big family!

  • fun car - 2003 Honda Civic
    By -

    Bought this car brand new but the previous model year. Its been a great car so far although the side panels seem to get dinged very easily when people parked next to you open their doors and hit the car. I was also rear-ended by a large F-250 on the highway going about 5-10 mph and the bumper held up better than I could have imagined.. I was expecting the worst but all I saw was two small dents in the back bumper.. no damage underneath.

  • Every one should drive a Hybrid.., - 2003 Honda Civic

    This car is awesome. Very comfortable to drive, smooth quiet ride, seamless technology. My favorite thing about this car is the time and money I save passing by all the gas stations!!! (650 miles between fill ups)
