The Honda Civic has been one of the best selling compact cars in the American market for over 30 years. The car is offered in sedan, coupes, and hatchback body styles. Known for reliability and great fuel economy the 2000 Honda Civic remains true to its ancestry and is offered in a great selection of body styles and trim packages. Notable features for the model year include a lengthening of all body styles. Sedans and coupes were increased by 2.3 inches, while the hatchback was elongated by about 4.3 inches. Road noise is the only area where the Civic probably should be improved a little more.
Trim packages available include the CX, DX, LX, EX, HX, Si, and GX. Both the CX and DX are basic trim levels for the sedan and coupe body styles. Standard features they come with include a bare bones stereo system, tilt steering wheels, and manually adjustable driver seats. Moving up in refinement is the LX which comes with full power accessories, AC, sun roofs, and CD players. Finally for the standard lineup there is the EX model which comes with just about everything a driver could want including full power accessories, a CD changer, power adjustable driver seats, and much more.
Going further up the ladder in price there are the HX, Si, and GX models. The GX was introduced as the first vehicle that runs entirely off of natural gas. It gets superb gas mileage and can be outfitted similar to the LX with a lot of extra amenities. Si models come with their own special engine and get a little bit more power than most of the standard models. HX and hatchback models have been made larger and come with most of the high-end features the LX has as well.
