Great Lil Car
Im in the military, and im a single mother. I got this car during the winter and was surprised as to how well it did on the roads in Italy [im in Pisa]. My daughters car seat actually fits quite well behind me while i drive and i drive comfortably.. [mind u im also 5'6] Its a great lil work car, i get awesome gas mileage [i only put about euro 40 in every two weeks]. This is just an awesome lil car. I do have dash problems, as in the display doesn't work, but all in all, great lil car. And amazing space!
Champion
I'm 66 and this car has been the most cost effective vehicle I've owned including motorcycles and as old as it is now I still consider it a beautiful frog and believe it will last as long as I. Thanks Honda

Great potential
Honda Civics from 1996-2000 are the best! My 1999 DX hatchback was stolen with over 411,000 original miles. I just kept it maintained and replaced parts according to recommendations. The clutch lasted 398,000 miles. I bought a used 1996 CX that had two previous owners. It wasn't as well cared for as mine, but my mechanic is getting me caught up on overdue maintenance. There are lots of these cars still running and available, but they sell quickly. They are also easily stolen--I will need to get theft protection on the new car. I love driving this car. It's fun, it corners well, it's stable, it has good visibility, it has great gas mileage, and it's reliable.
still works

best purchase ever
How can you go wrong with one of these? I've had this car from day 1, and all i have spent money on is preventative maintnance. It's not going to out-pace a corvette, but it is a car you can count on to get you where u need to go. I've got 141,000 miles and i'm running it till the wheels fall off.
