1997 Honda Civic HX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much really. Dond regular oil changes. Clutch seems to be alittle rough lately and may need to change it, but it's probably because I was getting used to the stick.
General comments?
Great car. Runs great. Gives good gas mileage. 30 city and 35's highway (although that seems to be lower than supposed to be for the HX, not sure why).
Seat ergonomics are not good and give us some back ache on trips. Since its low, we need to bend to get in and seating position is uncomfortable because of that.
Ability to fold the back seats helps a lot when hauling stuff. We bought in a big entertainment center about 6ft long.
All in all, good car.
