1991 Honda Civic Si 1.6L
Summary:
A great handling Lil speed devil
Faults:
The car is comfortable I love it, but I have to sell it now that I'm in college and need a car with lower miles.
The ball joints and CV joints all went bad at the same time... This sucked.
Needed new tires constantly (but this was my fault because I lowered the car).
The bushings for suspension went @ 203k miles.
The clutch had to be done @207k miles.
The car needed a gas tank @ 207,500 miles.
Sending unit later on, plus fuel lines.
Heater core and then blower fan.
General Comments:
Water gets into the taillights often and shorts out bulbs, I have gotten pulled over for this many times because bulbs were out and I didn't know it and this gets very annoying very fast. My last Honda was the same way (92 Accord).
These are just repairs I had to do to make up for the crap job the last owner took care of the car. Its still my baby and I'm sad to see it go.
I love the Si besides the little things that get on my nerves its great :)
I'm opting for a Escort ZX2 or Cavalier Z24 for my next car... Maybe another Honda, but they always have high miles for the same price of a domestic car with low miles that'll last almost as long.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Listen you don't know anything about Hondas. The only reason why you had all of those problems is because the dealer wants you to spend all of your money. So go to a diffrent dealer!
