New Civic Owner
Last week i bought a 2002 honda civic lx, 4 dr, 5spd, it had 134,300 miles on it, timing belt and water pump were replaced in january. Car only has a few little dings, and a crack in the front bumper.
All in all im pretty impressed with this little thing, I got 34mpg going back and forth to work and doing a lot of stop and go driving, deffinitely beats the 15mpg my truck gets(on a good day).
I changed oil and filter and rotated the tires last week(really needed it) and i clay bared and waxed the car last weekend, all i want to do still is change the tranny fluid.

when changing the MTF (manual trans fluid), remember to stick with OEM only.
