1990 Honda Civic 2dr Hatchback
LOVE this car!! ive had it for 4 years, and have loved every bit of it. this has been a great car for me, ive put 80k on it, and it now has 270xxx on it. i put the 5 speed trans in it, rear disc brakes, si seats, hx gold wheels, and tons of other little stuff here and there. over all this is a great little car, and is more fun to drive than you would think for 70 hp.
Best Honda ever in the world

1990 Honda Civic DX 4dr Sedan
Bought my Civic new, still love it after 252K miles. Nothing but routine maintenance and replacement of parts you would expect after that much mileage! Mostly city and highway driving.
This little car won't die

1990 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan
I have driven this car since September
1989 and have had only minor problems:
1) Something I found out later was
common to Civics of this age -- a
faulty relay that caused it to not re-
start on hot days after I had driven it
a short time. Cost of repair: Less than
$200.
2) A warped light panel in the rear of
the car that affected the
lighting in the rear when it … rained.
This was a bit more substantial but
less than $400 to repair. I have done
regular servicing -- not necessarily
with the dealer and am craving a new
car. Can't manage to do it yet as I'm
still getting 40 mpg and it purrs along
with no problems....
Tons of Reliability!

1990 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan
I purchased this little car in February of 2004, with only 98,000 miles on it! Only fix needed was a new muffler, surprisingly. This car is very warm in the winter (inside heats up fast!) and ice cold a/c in the summer. Excellent fuel economy! I get very close to 35-mpg on highway and easily 30mpg in city! The advantages are super easy to park, gas mileage and most of all, … bullet-proof, long-lasting engines. Disadvantages are they say the smaller the car, the un-safer you are! True, but with the excellent reputations these cars have, I'll take the risk and keep her until the wheels fall off! I highly recommended this cute car for anyone seeking reliability and who is on a budget.
