Used Honda Civic for Sale in Arlington, TX

The 2003 Honda Civic is a car that has never let me down. I was unable to buy it brand new, but when I first leased it, it only had 13,000 miles. Now it has a total of 100,000 and I have never had to take it to the shop, except for standard maintenance. The only issues I have had with this car were a few flat tires, and a piece of plastic on the inside occasionally has to be pushed back in for the clip to activate. The gas mileage is still great, on the highway I get roughly thirty-five miles per gallon. The radio can get very loud, and has a relatively high quality sound system. The car seats up to 5 people which is also very handy. The trunk space is great, and the back seats can fold down for more room if you need it. I can easily take off a tire from my mountain bike and store it in the trunk when I'm stopped, so that no one will steal my bike. When I first bought the car, I had issues going the speed limit. Not because it's slow, but because the ride is so comfortable I did not realize I was going over the speed limit. The look of the car is pretty average, so it's not exactly a car you would want if you want something flashy. But when you factor in the reliability, money you will save on gas, and comfort, this simple sedan can really stand out.

It is a smooth ride, small and compact, and fun to drive. Though it is not as tall as many other cars on the road, it is easy to find parking and it still purrs like a kitten after 26 years. I like the manual transmission and the fact that it is easy to work on. It handles well, is quiet and picks up speed pretty well, too. I would recommend it for a budget-friendly option.
