1988 Honda Civic DX Sedan review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Distributor went bad at about 130,000 miles.
About 3 tires have been replaced.
Radiator had small leak (from highway driving, I took a hit of a piece of tire scrap)
General comments?
Interior is in immaculate shape.
Exterior has a dent on almost every panel.
This car is 15 years old and still gets 38mpg.
I am a Honda man thru and thru.
