1992 Honda Civic VX review from North America
"The most car this amount of money could buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the usual things that wear, except that it was done way beyond when other cars have it done. It was on the second clutch, which would be normal with this kind of miles on it.
General comments?
295,000 miles and still running fine, just lost a little power. I sold it like an idiot thinking it may not continue to do my daily 120 mile commute.
False advertising by Honda. The car was marked 56 mpg highway, and it never got more than 44 mpg. Contacted the regional rep who ordered a mechanical evaluation and said nothing was wrong with it. Honda refused to do anything about it. Later found out that it was false advertising and none of them got advertised mpg. The HX did not get 56 either.
