1991 Honda Civic DX Sedan review from North America
"Overall one of the better Honda's made, especially if I had the DOHC VTEC model"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've gone through front brake pads twice already. New tires, muffler, and exhaust mid pipe. The compression has dropped in the number 4 cylinder.
General comments?
I love the 5spd. tranny. I have upgraded the rear brakes to rear disc, they work great. This car has a good amount of "pep" considering the low compression and it's fun to drive everywhere.
I'm very tall and I have plenty of room.
Overall I love this car and I'm swapping in the 1.6 DOHC VTEC motor to keep this car running forever. Everyone should buy HONDA, they make just about everything these days.
