Performance

How well does the '04 civic ex perform and how reliable is it?

It performs great, for an economy car,and is ultra reliable.

^^^ Yup...Its a good all around car. Honda is known for reliabilty in all its vehicles so thats not a question. Check on consumer reports to see how it performs and stands up agains other cars in its class. When I did my research it was the best bang for the buck in every aspect. I am very satisfied.

drove my dads 04 dx and it rides nice and has pretty good torque for a honda engine but thats just compare to my 1.5 so im gessing the ex pulls even better. his gets awsome gas milage too. realibilty always depends on how u drive and maintain the car.
