1989 Honda Civic STD review from North America
"This car was great, right up until it went under an SUV who slammed his brakes"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt snapped, which threw valves in my engine about 500 miles after I bought the car. (granted it had 160000 when I bought it, I should have changed it).
General comments?
Great on gas!!
Easy to fix on your own.
