2002 Honda Civic 4 door review from North America

"The 2001 2005 civic is an overpriced, overrated car... not a bad one, but not good price/performance"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing Really, I am bored and just felt like writting a review about the Civic.

General comments?

I have owned 2 civics in my life.

-1992 CX Hatchback 1.5L

Amazing car, far better then all the competition at its time up to 1995

My first car and it got the beating of a lifetime yet never failed.

Got rid of it due to rust in classic civic areas, got smashed in the back, hood flew open and smashed the windsheild... it became a true reliable shitbox.

The 1.5L was VERY FAST for its size and advertised HP.

-1998 DX Coup 1.6L

Great car, looked amazing yet it seemed slower then the 1992 and spent more gas.

15km sideways impact cost over 3000$ damage... traded it for an 1995 accord.

My General opinion is that the civics just got more and more expensive offering less and less.

Only now, they released a new civic that I call the "Shuddle" And yes, it is an amazing car!

I presently own a 2002 hyundai elantra gt

2.0L 138hp 136tork

Yet the 1992 Civic seems faster and far more reliable

The 1.8l integra is also more fuel efficient and faster.

Honda Engins > Hyundai engins...

But hyundai is still as reliable.

Here is where Honda lost it up to 2005.

The 2001 2005 civic 4 door has an arm rest as an option.

It offers a small yet still decent 1.7l engin

Its TOO Basic

Its Weak past 100kmph

The seats are horrible...

Its too expensive for too little.

When an old man smashed my hyundai, I had the pleasure of driving a 2002 civic for 2 weeks.

When I got back in my Hyundai Elantra, I felt like I was driving a luxury car!

Used base Hyundai Elantra GT is 6000$ 8000$

Electric doors

2 airbags

electric windows

electric door locks

fog lights

mags

power steering

arm rest

2x cup holders

cd player 6 speakers (very good for base system)

Can control the delay in wipers

back wiper

daylights go off when handbrake is pulled up.

It also looks better! (like a Saab 900)

Used 2002 civic costs 1000 to 2000$ more for

an optional arm rest.

Thank you Honda for addressing this and making the new Civic what it is ment to be...

A Better Car then what the competition offers.

And the new Fit looks pretty nice!

Again, I was bored, and felt like giving my opinion on Honda Civics in general.

(Still driving my Elantra, within 2 years and a half I changed 1 baring, 1 timing belt (100000km) 1 or 2 lights, the back brakes once... that's it... so its VERY Reliable... and I eint no grandpa)
