If Honda would replicate part for part a 2001 Civic EX 4 door 5 speed and could sell it for $15,000 I'd buy one tomorrow. In 2001 I bought the same car in a 2 door. For what it was it was an awesome car. I averaged 41mpg. 48mpg on trips from KC to Springfield, MO on the weekends to see my college girlfriend. The 5 speed was like shifting through melted butter. So smooth. 1.7 Vtec had enough power to be exciting if you needed it to be but was stupid reliable. I drove it 100k and passed it onto my brother who put another 100k on it before it was wrecked.

I'd love to find an old lady with one with low miles to pick up as a daily driver. What I'd really like is Honda to reproduce it. I know there are more airbag, emissions, and other BS laws but I hope in the future that car makers do more reproduction vehicles that are exactly the same as the originals.

Oh, a Honda car. Never mind.

Now, if we were considering Honda motorcycles, this would be my favorite;

Why didn’t they install dual fart cans, a ridiculous wing and 87 stickers (each of which adds 10 hp by the way) from the factory since that’s what going to happen to that piece of shit anyway?

Always liked those. They were a bad ass commuter car. Great for road trips. And reliable as hell. The new version aint to shabby

Meh.

2002 TL Type S that just turned 100k miles.
Just bought it and fixed all the flaws.

A 270hp comfy cruiser that looks the biz.

Civics are not road trip cars.
They are around town commuter cars like you say though.

this is my cool Honda... well, not this exact one, but looks just like it... puts a smile on my face everytime we cross paths.

Had one great car until the timing belt tensioner gives out at 36500....damn things were defective and Honda knew it. People were shipping parts in from overseas to fix them because the OEM parts would failing so bad.

The transmission was incredible and that car handled like no other at that time.

I had two that made it past 100k on the auto tensioner. When I did the timing belt on the second I swapped it over to the H23 manual tensioner. I really miss that car.

Was always partial to the F3 myself. Had one just like this.
Murdered a lot of other bikes with it.

I think a lot of people are missing the point.

Imagine if manufacturers started selling previous generation body styles with modern electronics/engine/brakes, updated interiors, etc..

Driving an EK Civic (this model) is just night and day different than modern Civics and it's the same with most cars.

My biggest gripe with new cars is they have a tall body (referred to as a "beltline") and just a tiny glass. Makes you feel like you're riding in a tall bathtub. It used to be the opposite where you had large windows/large greenhouse to see out of but that all changed in the 2000s due to regulations. I understand it's for safety and not styling but I would love to own a car from the past that's small/lots of windows to see out of combined with a modern electronics/interior/engine.
