Faults:

Seats have worn on drivers side, but not too badly.

Problems with suspension and breaks, more to do with previous owners than the cars fault.

General Comments:

Very good looking car that has always and will always turn heads.

Plenty of room in the front, but the back seats are very small so are not really suitable for long journeys. The inside as a whole is nicely set out and does not look as dated as other cars of its time.

It’s practical around town with good fuel consumption and being easy to park. The boot is bigger than it looks like its going to be from the outside and when you put the back seats down a surprisingly large amount can be fitted in. The suspension is fairly hard which makes looking out for and avoiding pot holes second nature after a while.

Once out on the open roads it really does what it was made to do very well. It accelerates reasonably well from low revs and then when it reaches 5500rpm it switches to VTEC which is very loud and exciting. It will then rev past 8000rpm pulling hard all the way. It handles very well with little body roll through corners.

Definitely worth getting one, but make sure your patient and look out for a good one or you could regret it.

Faults:

Ignition switch wore out at 124,000 miles.

Heater Rheostat failed at 112,000 miles.

General Comments:

This car is fast, agile and extremely well engineered.

Reliability is without question.

It can be wearing on long motorway journeys, due to the road noise from the stiff suspension, but that is not really what this car was built for.

It is an A-B rocket.

It has never missed a beat in 15 years.

As it has been waxoyled every year from new, it has not rusted.

Synthetic oil and 4000 mile oil changes have kept the engine running perfectly.

It is still on the original radiator and clutch.

I just don't understand why Honda stopped producing what must be one of the best cars in the last 25 years.

I often consider putting it away to preserve it, but why deprive myself the driving pleasure this little car gives me.

Faults:

Boot struts have gone (won't hold the heavily weighted boot)

Little bit of wear on the drivers seat- very common- lucky it wasn't ripped!

Literally that's all.

General Comments:

Well were do I start?

This car could cost 3 times as much and I would still buy it.

0-60 in around 7.5-you need to hit the exclusive 8500 red line to reach it!

This car loves the revs.

Like when you feel sorry for it you push into the vtec at 5500 just to please it, and when you do, well...

The noise is outragously addictive when you reach the vtec.

There truly is no over car that can blend this much performance with such amazing economy (50 mpg has been achieved- albeit driving like I was 90!). I had heard the rumor now I know it's fact.

Very cramped in the rear- it's a sports car duh! But the technological advancements that had been made when this car hit the market still puts many modern cars to shame.

Huge boot space with the rear seats folded. You really should hold out for a mint one. Pay top dollar and you won't regret it.

Handling is superb and it is incredibly smooth over say speed bumps.

Reliability is legendary if serviced regularly.

You will feel king of the road in this car. And if you get beat by something like an accord type-r (Just!) then you can always say "Well I gotta little baby 1.6 and you only just beat me"!!

BUY BUY BUY!!!
