Ride comfort is best in class.
Acceleration is adeqaute for an engine of its size.
Great depreciation value;my mom has a 1995 Neon and my car is worth only $300 less than hers!!!
You do NOT have a 1.8 liter engine, unless you swapped one in. You most likely had a 1.5, possible a 1.6.
I bought my 1989 Honda Civic used in 1999, and the person who sold it to me will tell me every time they see me that they wish they would have NEVER sold it.
It is a wonderful little car with only 235000 miles on it. I did everything maintenance wise Honda recommended and have no problems. I hope to get another 235000 out of it.
I get around 36 to 41 miles to the gallon in the city, and on the interstate, if you can stand to go 55 to 60mph, you can get 46 miles to the gallon. It would seem the further "advanced" cars have come, they have a hard time catching up to my 1989 Civic.
