Love my car!

By Just Me (PA) on Saturday, May 11, 2013

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 130,000

Pros: "Great easy car to drive."

Cons: "Extra cost for hybrid equals no savings over all."

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"I love my car because it is comfortable and dependable. Owed the car for 10 years and no major problems. Changed battery one time. Love the mileage but the smaller Toyota does much better. I get around 39 to 43 mpg."

"This is my second Civic. The transmission on my last one finally went out around 220,000. My daughter learned how to drive with it. It may be small, but it's the right size for me. If I could change one thing, it would be the road noise."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 78,000

Pros: "Economical and can be owner maintained"

Cons: "Undepowered, but avg cost under $0.10 a mile"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 8

"This Civic is still original except for tires and battery. All functions including windows, steering, signals and lamps, air, braking, doors, transmission, etc have never needed either adjustment, replacement or repair. Tires wear evenly, seldom need rotation. Shocks and struts, like new. Of course fluids were either partially or fully replaced on schedules. After 4000 or more mile intervals engine oil remains at full on the dip stick. Upkeep cost is still under $100 per year. No rust anyplace, even though it was operated in Cleveland."
