  Honda EX - 1994 Honda Civic
  By sufurair - August 22 - 9:14 pm

  A great car. At 128k miles, things are supposed to break even though it is a Honda. Other than that, great gas mileage for the year and fun to drive. Could use some more cockpit storage space.

  This is a great car - 1994 Honda Civic
  By Jack - August 16 - 4:45 pm

  I bought this car for $200 from someone who tore up the tranny. It is a 5 speed and this kid didnt know how to drive one, so he learned on this car. It is great! The only reason I had to go into the tranny was because of him, and it was a simple fix. It has 156,000 miles on it, and it is very dependable. I do wish it was a little more comfortable, but it will do with gas being $2.80 a gallon. 42 MPG in a 12 year old car!!!

  They should build em all like this! - 1994 Honda Civic
  By Kate - August 10 - 1:44 pm

  This has been a great car for over 11 years. Car makers of the world should take lessons from Honda. Id have kept it indefinitely except for wanting the more advanced safety features available in new cars. I held out for as long as I could!

  Bought my Civic used in 1998 - 1994 Honda Civic
  By Wayne Lewis - March 28 - 3:49 pm

  The most annoying part of this little 4 door sedan is the automatic transmission.Though it has been trouble-free, it is underpowered from ramp speed up to highway speed. It will cruise nicely at 120 kilometres an hour just over 70 miles per hour. I bought the car used privately with 110,000 kilometres (65,000 miles). I have had few problems with it and it now has nearly 300,000 kilometres or 180,000 miles. I plan on keeping it another 2 years and with the Krown rustproofing the car has seen since it was 4 years old annually, it still looks great! The car has had an axle and upper ball joint replacement on one side front- end. The remainder has been normal maintenence!Great car!

  Best little car Ive ever owned - 1994 Honda Civic
  By Joyce in Ohio - March 19 - 8:23 pm

  My Honda has 288,000+ on the odometer and is still going strong. The steering on this car is phenomenal. I have NEVER lost control, even in snow ice, on crowded highways and ducking clueless motorists. What astounds me is that I continue to get between 40 and 45 mpg, even at 11 years later and the engine does not seem to burn oil. It has never let me down and has only failed to start when I left the headlights on. Normal maintenance for this car has been really minimal (i.e., I ignored it).

  Honda at the Pinnacle of Quality - 1994 Honda Civic
  By tommy thompson - February 16 - 11:03 pm

  Awesome mpg: 41/50 combined with 11 trouble free year gives the VX a hands down win in my book

  163k and still going - 1994 Honda Civic
  By YamInIA - January 28 - 2:47 pm

  i bought her used w/135K on her, and even tho the body is rough, the engine is fantastic. i change the oil, and am taking her in this month for the timing belt/w.pump r&r. i doubt its ever been done, and is recc.every 70K or so. i use this car to commute avg.of 150 miles/day, and it never fails me. handles well in winter conditions due to low/wide build. i LOVE the 5spd manual trans..is so fun, and good mpg too. I love this car so much, im putting about $1000 into her to get her looking nice and getting the engine to 100% performance. most would say it isnt worth it, but i bet its only used 1/2 its life. hoping to get 300K+ before she calls it quits.

  A Spunky Little Honda - 1994 Honda Civic
  By imaculprit - January 2 - 6:25 pm

  This is my first car. I got it from my cousin who had it for a year. She got it from a liitle old lady that drove it to church and groceries once a week. I got it with 56,000 miles on it. Amazing, hasnt even been broken in with. It unfortunately is an automatic transmission. Though a 5-spd is more sporty, this little honda can hold the road for a front wheel drive car, even on wet pavement. With the proper tires on it. This car will drive forever if I let it. I observe about 27-32 mpg depending on how I drive for the week. I average 250 miles a tank which lasts 6-7 days. With the price of gas it is important. The brakes are flawless. No leaks and little squeaks.

  Strong little car - highly recommended - 1994 Honda Civic
  By driver in Atlanta - September 19 - 2:00 am

  I got this car new in 94, and it has been with me through marriage and kids (though it did get demoted to 2nd car status with coming of the 2nd child). It is still very fun to drive and VERY reliable. Not the best highway car, but great for around town and quite OK for shorter trips. Rear hatch and fold-down seats make this a very versatile hauler, too.

  Reliable Transport - 1994 Honda Civic
  By jalama - September 15 - 2:00 am

  Purchased about a year ago with 187k mi, needed new clutch and clutch master cylinder leaked. Drivers window upper forward seal has gnarled up from the sun so window is difficult to close and produces wind noise. Otherwise regular maintenance is all this car needs. It has a smooth response and predictable handling. Everything but the window nag still works. At 198k and 11yrs age I expect it to drive another 100k without major issues. Look for quiet tires when replacing them. Previous owner was original and had no problems, despite a front end crash repair, just kept up scheduled maintenance. It is not powerful, if you want a faster Civic buy the Si trim.
