01 civic lx sedan manual. 227K+ no problems what so ever and still running like new. I'm kinda waiting for the engine to just blow up so that i can swap a d17a2 in there and it just doesnt happen! lol. I'm stock with premium gas, full synthetic oil and top quality parts, and so far it has taken care of me. I can't regret buying my civic. just one thing though, i feel bad cuz is tooooooo slow! but i feel better at the gas station.

I have an 01 dx coupe. I've had to replace the transmission recently at around 62k miles. I've replaced the struts too. There are some door rattles I don't like and the transmission isn't perfect. However, some of the problems may have been caused my an accident I was in in which the car was almost totaled. Despite this, The car itself is good. It handles well and gets good mpg. I think I can fix the rattles my self and eventually k swap. Then I'll really love it.

Lucky me, bought the updated version, fixed idle drop, TDC sensor etc. Since then never had any trouble so never regretted it.=)
