I think the honda 600 was. The civic was the first real popular honda though. I had the 77 Accord. It ran until 02!

Honda car? I'm not sure. But yeah the CVCC is obviously the predecessor to the Civic.

CVCC is just a term for emissions like LEV, ULEV, etc.
Why are you guys referring to it as a car model?

Someone in my neighborhood has the Civic model that Hawk posted.
It really does look like a Mini until you get up close and notice the CIVIC on the hatch.
