1982 Honda Civic review from North America
"A cheap, super-reliable, economy car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Right inboard CV joint- replaced at 130,000 miles.
That's IT!
General comments?
This is a great little car. It's my daily driver, as I take my '78 Thunderbird and '79 Cougar to shows.
It gets 30 miles per gallon, is worth more as transportation than it's monetary value and is fun to drive. Well I guess it's just fun to drive since its the only 5 speed I have access to.
It's no race car, but it is faster than most four cylinders out there.
