Overview & Reviews
A driver airbag is standard on all new Civics. Unfortunately, the wagon body style is dropped from the lineup. VTEC power is available by way of the top-end EX model. All sedans now have power steering added to their standard equipment list.

Good car for those with shallow pockets - 1992 Honda Civic
By ChillyWilly - September 25 - 2:00 amI bought this car after wrecking a late model luxury car. Though it has been a great downgrade, the Cvic is a good, reliable car. Its driver friendly, well-built and fun to drive. Performance is the one negative remark. Expect to be the last pulling off a light. On the plus side, Honda performance parts are widely available, if you are looking to increase horsepower. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. 120K and going strong.

LOADS OF FUN FOR A SMALL PRICE!!!!!!! - 1992 Honda Civic
By Stedman05 - September 21 - 2:00 amI love it. It has great handling, acceleration for a car w/ a 102hp, lots of cargo room, cool looks, and GREAT mpg. The car looks great for a 92 w/ a simple yet sporty design. The acceleration is great especially w/ the 5-spd. The seats are great. They have lots of side bolstering for hips, ribs, and a little for shoulders. They have great lumbar support too. The handling is great. You dont have to worry about hitting anyone in parking lots. I would suggest getting one without PS, because you get a better feel of the road. Dont forget the 35/40 mpg you get with the car. If you want a cool little car but on a budget, this is the car for you.

great handling but a slow car - 1992 Honda Civic
By wishihadafastercar - August 19 - 2:00 amThe car has great handling and great gas efficiency, but man wheres the accelerating?? This car chokes on hills, and when you need power the Civic wont give it. Ive floored it once and the engine started making a loud noise but my car still didnt go fast. Overall its a good car if you drive like a grandma (if you dont accelerate much) so itll save you a lot of money on gas. But on the other side, it can be very frustrating driving with barely any acceleration. Of course you could always do stuff to it to make it faster, but then I would rather just buy a more expensive car with more horsepower and torque.

Civic in Crisis - 1992 Honda Civic
By Atlanta Zach - July 18 - 2:00 amPurchased as my first car, my Civic may have to be retired pretty soon. Purchased at 92k miles, currently 150k , it seems pretty young, esp. for a Honda. Ive had radiator flushed, and checked (along with hoses) for leaks, had the thermostat replaced three times in two months, no coolant leakage, overheats regularly. Due to nearly non-existent residual value Im going to buy a replacement and tear it down to attempt a ressurection. It HADnt given me many problems the entire time I owned the car even with sometimes inconsistent maintenance. I would recommend the model to a potential buyer but beware overheating issues.

Still strong after 11 years - 1992 Honda Civic
By Jo Co Max - May 30 - 2:00 amI am original owner. Have just turned 157,000 miles and car still strong. Have just done required maintance. Still a great car, consistently gets 30 - 32 MPG in daily city driving. Performance better than any car in its class. The perfect communter car. The design is still fresh after 14 years, a sharp looking car. Weak areas: 1.Front brakes discs only last about 20,000 miles. 2. CV boots weak(?) have to replace them between 30,000 - 40,000 miles. I plan to keep it for another 100,000 miles!!!

Lasts Forever - 1992 Honda Civic
By Happy Civic ownre - May 8 - 2:00 amI bought my Honda LX 4 door with 55,000 miles on it.I now have over 340,000 miles on it. I maintain car as recommended. It does not consume/burn any oil. The last two sets of tires averaged 75,000 miles due to me not rotating them regularly. I have not yet had to replace the clutch or shock absorbers. I have had to replace the front brake rotors on two different occasions due to warpage and have had to replace the distributor and the alternator. This has been a phenomenally reliable and inexpensive car to own. I am wondering how many miles I can get on this engine. Has anyone heard of a Civic engine with more than 340,000 miles on it?

Superb 1992 Honda Civic VX - 1992 Honda Civic
By H. Pierce - May 4 - 2:00 amIn 11 years of ownership, only four items have broken, two under warranty. A heat shield loosened and rattled, interior locking latches broke on both doors, the distributor cap cracked. Total repair bills: $353 (including 1 tow). All other items have been scheduled maintenance and expected replacements (e.g. battery, tires, CV boots, exhaust system) Overall average efficiency is 46 mpg in my mix of city and suburban freeway driving.

IT JUST WONT DIE - 1992 Honda Civic
By Silencer - May 2 - 2:00 ami had a civic 1992 cx , so far its the first and best car i have had. for a first car i was really killing it. didnt do an oil change in 6 or 9 months, i was driving without oil sometimes , even brought it to 190kmph WITHOUT OIL... i was young :) and freaking nuts. :( ... after all i did to it , it rarly died on me. and when it did it was an old part that did its time (clutch at 180k, radiator at 177k brakes,) thats it the only reason i sold it is cuz it was rusted like hell. and clutch died cuz i was teaching my friends to drive standard and they were killing it) VERY RELIABLE CAR ! and the body holds together more than the new cardboard civics.
