1988 Honda Civic DX review from North America
"Durable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The entire exhaust needed to be repaired. The brakes needed pedals and a master cylinder. The seats are terribly shot.
General comments?
Because I am a delivery driver, I do a lot of wear and tear on my car. The Honda Civic DX is suprisingly durable. Even though I only had this car since November 2002, she runs just as good as my mother's 2003 Dodge Neon SXT.
