For fifty years now the Civic has been the unchallenged best seller of the venerable Japanese brand. Honda certainly doesn’t mess around when it comes to sports engines. The connecting rods are longer, the cylinder head has been cleaned by hand along with the rest of the assemblage, the valves have been redesigned for better compression, the camshafts replaced, the crankshaft and admission reworked, offering us a truly wonderful result with an atmospheric 155 hp engine. The chassis has also been reworked to offer its pilot sensations worthy of the Honda brand.
