Ive been driving a 1998 Civic Si for the past year now and I think ive lived with the car long enough to give a review of it. In short the 1998 Honda Civic Si is a FANTASTIC FWD sports car. Honda was the first company to start this trend of Front Wheel Drive, econmical and affordable sports cars and it all started with this model.

The exterior is really nice and still has a nice look to it today (they obviously tried to copy the style of the BMW M3 and thats 100% okay). The car has a FANTASTIC 4 cylinder engine that produces 130 hp and makes the 2600 pound car move very quickley thanks to its awesome VTEC techonolgy. Top Gear even said once that Honda's 4 cylinder VTEC engines are the best 4 cylinder engines ever built.

Because of its racing tuned suspension the civic si is SUPER STIFF. It feels beautiful on new roads and is AMAZING in the corners and the grip is beyond incredible, but as soon as you hit one tiny bump you feel how stiff it is. Hitting pot holes and speed bumps in this car will break all your bones.

The interior is really nice and super easy. Its got EVERYTHING that you could possibly need (before 2000) and even a sunroof. My si came with all the options and was fully loaded.

Gas mileage is not too good on this car though only getting about 300-350 kilometers on a full tank of gas but because of its small tank it only costs $40 to fill up and thats good!

Overall the 1998 Honda Civic Si is a great car for someones first car or for someone who wants a sporty, reliable front wheel drive sports car with a trunk that can actually be used! (trunk space is actually really good)! Its stiff and fast and has a really nice sound to it espically when the VTEC kicks in at around 4,000 RPM! The 4 speed automatic transmission is also good but gear changes are very rough and noticable.
