General comments?

A Poor car with a very poor quality!

I don't know, why I made that silly mistake to change my Vectra for a Honda Civic.

This car it's a piece of crap compareted to the Vectra.

I already sold this car and I returned to buy GM Car's. Now i'am a very satisfied owner of a Chevrolet Vectra Expression 2.2 MPFI.

Come on, you must work for GM. I don't believe, in a million years, the problems you claim. I have had GM cars in the past and I would not criticise them because I think they have good points, but the Honda Civic I have is much better. The Vectra gearbox and engine do not last high mileages, while the Honda's remain sweet for many miles.

Sorry, but no one is going to take such a biased review seriously.

And what can I say? Vectra is a good car, with a respectfull engine, but Civic is by far the most modern, high quality car than the Vectra (at least this Vectra that is being sold in Brazil). Vectra is bigger and so on and so forth, but we have to remind that we are talking about a small family sedan, which competes with Chevrolet Astra, while the Chevrolet Vectra really competes with Honda Accord, tough prices are way different. That's the point you have to take. Maybe you were unlucky enough to by a lemon, but I can assure you that the Civic is a good car. Just take a look at the rest of reviews from the rest of the world. 99% of the people cannot be wrong about this.
