1973 Honda Civic review from North America
"Trend-setter for economy cars in the U.S. and still a classic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cracked head at 100,000 miles. My own fault. Currently electrical problem resulting in failure to start. Undetermined cause.
General comments?
Handles like a sports car.
Only option available when I purchased the car was hatchback/sedan.
Great car.
