1990 Honda Civic DX review from North America
"Good car if you can find a clean one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Great fuel mileage, averages 32 mpg combined city/hwy. I baby this car, as far as driving style, as did the previous 2 owners.
Luckily for me, the A/C and heater work good still.
Everything is made as simple as possible by Honda, which I believe has contributed to the reliability and economy of owning this car. Manual windows, and non-power assist steering, as well as a very low roof are the only minuses to this design.
