2004 Honda Civic Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by thefemrites

Fuel economy

Hybrid gives *great* economy - 45 mpg is normal. Except for the bad transmission, this little car runs like the proverbial Swiss watch.

Exterior styling

More conventional than Prius.

Handling

Tight, precise handling like a small European sedan.

Dealer practices

No hassle, no haggle pricing was fair and easy to work through. I felt that the Honda Certification was a plus.

Dealer practices

The Honda service people talk nice, follow company procedures, and tell us all is well - but I keep having transmission problems!
