1993 Honda Civic DX hatchback review from North America
"Great value economy car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced CV boots in 1997, the cost of which was covered by warranty.
Replaced muffler (rusted out) in 1998.
General comments?
The car is an excellent economy car. Reliable, cheap to run and while far from a performance car, still fun to drive.
The car retained its resale value over the period of ownership. I bought the car for $11,000 CND new in 1993 and just sold it in March 2001 for $8,000 CND. Mind you, I did take very good care of it.
