1998 Honda Civic EX review from North America
"Honda Civics are the best cars on the road; Reliable, inexpensive, and handles great!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rotors replaced three times.
The gas pedal has a quirk I had to get used to at first, it was not smooth, but I got used to it in just a couple weeks and it was probably due to the car's age.
General comments?
This is a very responsive and zippy car, handles great.
I have found that it is the only car which I can be at the utmost comfort as a driver and a passenger.
There are virtually no vision obstructions, no matter what your height is (I am 5').
I will likely purchase the newer Civic when this one has died. It is a very low maintenance vehicle.
