Used Honda Civic for Sale in Detroit, MI

I initially bought this car on a whim. My last car had kicked the bucket and I needed a new car that would get me from college and back (500 miles one way) for at least a year. After that year I planned to move on to another vehicle...but I have had this car for 10 years now- apparently I was hooked! I had put decent all season tires on it and I was shocked as to how amazing it does in the Michigan's Upper Peninsula bodacious winters. As cars were getting stuck left and right I continued to scuttle along in my little "4 banger." The fuel mileage is also amazing- even at almost 20 years old it still gets around 35 mpg! The best mileage I have ever gotten in it was around 43 mpg and that was going through Ohio on the freeway--Not bad for a car that isn't classified as a "hybrid!" My husband has owned various makes of cars (Chevy, Ford, Dodge) and they all left him on the side of the road and it my 2000 Civic that I rescued him in. I have primarily only have had to do maintenance to this car (new tires, oil changes, brakes etc.) whereas my husbands cars its been gaskets and other major repairs that have cost us 100's-1000's of dollars. I also have to say I am going to be pretty sad when this car finally does "go out to pasture" but I have confidence it is not going to be because of the engine but because of the frame finally rusting out. I loved this car so much that I actually bought another Honda Civic a few months ago with the hopes that it lives up to or even surpasses its predecessors continual reliability and general awesomeness.

I think this is a very good car. It was my first car, and I think it's a great starter car for any young person. It has enough room for 4-5 people with a trunk while still being small and compact.
