  will miss my honda - 1998 Honda Civic
  By samehelsaid - March 2 - 2:00 am

  I got my honda new in 8/98.I was very happy when I got it and still very happy now. its unbleivably reliable. its fun to drive if you cant afford a stonger car, I felt the need for more power on several occasions but hay I cant get a porche. I changed the factory speakers with a polk ones and added a CD changer to enjoy my CDs. now since we just had a baby, a coupe is not convenient at all, Im trying to buy an old SUV but everytime I test drive one I feel how good is my honda and I back off. the moral of the story is " buy it if you cant afford a stronger car and if you know you will not have a baby in the next 5 years "

  Bulletproof - 1998 Honda Civic
  By kennj - February 10 - 2:43 pm

  Great car. Bought with 65000 miles on it, now have 190000 and it is still going strong. Drive 100 miles a day and it has been totally reliable. I have not done a timing belt since I got it. Great MPG, 34 up to 40 on occassions. My first Honda after many Toyotas. They make a terrific car for commuters like me.

  Great Car for the Money - 1998 Honda Civic
  By JRHoyt - February 7 - 3:35 pm

  After 177,000 miles, The only repairs have been a new catalytic converter ($550) and an A/C compressor ($1300). This is a great car for a do-it-yourself mechanic. I now do 99% of the maintenance myself and I expect to keep this car until it reaches 300,000 miles. I bought it new in Jan. 1999. I havent even had to replace a head light or signal light bulb. I get 36.5 MPG at highway speeds, even after 9 years of use. Around town I get 29 MPG. I wish that was higher.

  Exhaust Manifold Problems - 1998 Honda Civic
  By BigBri - February 6 - 10:00 am

  96 and 97 Civics had an issue with their exhaust manifolds cracking. The EPA forced Honda to extend their warranty. I had the exact same problem with my 98 Civic, but Honda did not assume any liability. I was unimpressed by their corporate customer service. The car is great, but that exhaust manifold was a pain!

  Great, dependable little car - 1998 Honda Civic
  By f150xltgirl - February 5 - 6:38 am

  I love my cCvic, it was the best vehicle purchase I have made. I drive it on a 97 mile round trip daily and have not had any problems with it in five years. I would highly recommend a 98 Honda Civic EX!

  Honda Civic (Exceptional vehical) - 1998 Honda Civic
  By Mike McKinley - February 5 - 12:10 am

  Ive bought a Honda Civic Ex. 2dr coupe, manual trans. A little over two years ago. Even though the car was not in my posession for very long I am very pleased with its preformance as well as its reliablitly. The Civic is a common car which means upgrades/replacements and aftermarket tuning parts can be found any where and fairly cheap. It has an elegant design Both inside and out. However the performance of the viehical is fair. It sometimes can feel very slugish up large hills or with a full car load of people. Steering and handling however is exceptionaly better than other vehicals in made in 98. Overall Its a sporty fuel effecient car that is very fun to drive. Perfect for a first car!

  GOOD NOT GREAT - 1998 Honda Civic
  By markswhite - January 26 - 10:00 am

  The car is a very good car, not a great one as some would have you to believe. It does most everything well. I never get more than 30mpg with the auto. You must push it to keep up with more powerful vehicles. It has had two safety recalls. I have had problems with the thermostat (cracked the radiator), failed oxygen sensor, recurring problems with the passenger side power window armature. It takes a few turns to start and the ignition sometimes sticks. The car is a blast and will out handle many higher priced vehicles, especially on highway on/off ramps.

  What hasnt been said about this car? - 1998 Honda Civic
  By spideymike1 - January 26 - 10:00 am

  Bought this car used as a second car. Have owned Hondas in the past and after test driving this little Civic, I realized that I should still be owning Hondas! It could very well be the only car I would say would last 150K+ miles and still look good! Gas milage is great, the 5spd is peppy. Even the factory stereo with the add-on CD player is nice. What more could you get for under 10k used?

  Great Car - 1998 Honda Civic
  By Kris - January 23 - 8:32 pm

  My family has had this car for a while. My older brother bought it, he was the 2nd owner. Then my father bought it. After 3 or 4 years, of driving it, it now has just rolled past 173,000 miles. This is my first car. The only problems we have had with it is the AC stopped before we even got it. It still runs like new.

  Civic - 1998 Honda Civic
  By aeman21 - December 4 - 9:51 pm

  I bought the Civic with 144,000 miles. I now have 146,000 miles. I traded my 1999 Civic LX 4-door for this car, and it was a great decision. My 98 EX is a stick as opposed to my 99 LX auto. It has much better gas mileage and is a lot more fun to drive.
