We all low key waiting for that one grandma to put one up for sale, cheap and clean

[kvu]

Just sold my 2018 Mustang, bought a 1996 Civic EK hatch in exact same colour to get me from A to B. Love it!

[politanosk]

Stock and clean 90's civic always break necks no matter what. It's just a good looking model. It's simple and not over done, i miss my 99 ex coupe. That car was fun not a lot of power but fun

[novakaz]

three years after watching this video i finally have a fully stock 97 civic hatch and I'm in love

[martbach]

Man, I miss my EK1 sold it for 3500 in 2017 and it was B18C1 swapped, I regret selling it to this day

[danepaulsen]

I've owned my 99 EK Civic for nearly 13 years now, I'll never sell it🤩

I bought my EK Civic new out of the showroom way back in 1998. I still own it. 104000 kms and drives like new. 😎

One of the more quality Honda review channels. Quality sound, videography, and always reviewing gems.

[Deacon-mlic]

That Civic is a total gem 💎 Clay. Awesome video as usual.

[JoshHitti]

Buying a ‘97 EK from the original owner next week with <100k miles. So pumped! I haven’t had a civic in 10+ years.

[apteryx]

I finally found one after looking on Facebook marketplace for like a month straight. Only issue is it's got some rust but it's all easily repairable. The owner loved the car and took fantastic care of it.

[danhalsey]

Here in the UK most surviving EK's are high milers and rusted. Ive just picked up a '98 1.4i with 55'000 miles, same elderly owner fro 20 yrs. It's for my son as a 1st car and to learn in. Its a pleasure to drive and so comfortable, mechanically amazing and loads of extras

[arcticgamingarctic]

Im about to get a ej9 as my first car in a few days with only 160k kms. Its has full service history, no rust and the paint still looks great. After this video im even more excited now. I cant wait to pick it up

[teoandersson]

That’s nice, I bought an ek3 with 114xxxKm 3rd owner fully stock I’ve got the key from the dealer back in 98 quite happy:)

[dpontes]

Grabbed a stock 96 dx here in America this summer, certainly not as clean as that one quite a bit miles on her. One of the best decisions I've made, even with the auto transmission, the double wishbone suspension makes it so fun to flick around corners 😄! Honestly sometimes I feel like I'm having more fun driving fast in a slow car rather than fast in a fast car

[endercozy]

Me wanting a 96 accord sedan 4 door. After I sold me, I wish never did. The car runs like a clock, drives nice, and very economical with gas.

[hollybeary]

I'm original owner 97 civic hatchback dx. In my first accident last summer, t-boned. But I found a door off a 96 hb at a salvage yard. It doesn't quite fit the door frame, but I still love my car.

[ACHEIZM]

I'm buying one this weekend. 2 or 3K EG. Keeping it stock. Only thing I'm doing is lowering 1.5 inches.

[aerzamezame]

You should do more reviews on the "non Type R" counterparts of each Honda Civic generation. E.g, 8th Gen Honda Civic FD1 (R18A1)

[sherwinmarlin]

A near perfect car. I daily a 99 Ek hatch. Have had multiple people approach me wanting to buy it, or race me...lol. Handling is amazing 👏 🙌
