1990 Honda Civic Hatchback Si review from North America
"Tough little hatchback"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator went out at 168,000.
CV joints at 171,000.
Clutch replaced at 171,000.
General comments?
From the bat this car has treated me right, getting it at a fair price of $700. For being a 16 year old car it handles very well. It does have aftermarket rims and tires (Enkei). In the snow that's a different story. I have to shift a lot to get going, but it is s fwd. Overall, this car is very solid. I would defiantly buy another honda civic.
