2002 Honda Civic

Presenting a rare opportunity to own a 2002 Honda Civic Si Hatchback with just 22,563 miles on the odometer. This vehicle, finished in Taffeta White with a Black interior, has had two California owners. California ownership is particularly advantageous as it ensures the car has been spared exposure to the harsh conditions found in rust belt states, preserving its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

This setup, combined with the front-wheel-drive layout, offers an engaging driving experience. This Civic Si is equipped with numerous performance-oriented features. The sport-tuned suspension and rear disc brakes enhance handling and braking performance. The 15-inch alloy wheels and reactive link double wishbone rear suspension with stabilizer bar further contribute to its agile handling characteristics. In terms of safety, the 2002 Honda Civic Si Hatchback includes front and rear crush zones, side-impact door beams, child safety seat anchors, and front and rear 3-point seat belts. Driver and front passenger airbags (SRS) provide additional protection. The interior of the Civic Si is designed for both comfort and functionality. Features include removable cargo area cover, cargo net, painted silver interior accents, and cargo area light. Convenience is enhanced with map lights, indicator lights for low fuel, low oil pressure, and door/hatch open, as well as a headlights-on reminder. The dual visor vanity mirrors, door pocket storage bins, roof-mounted antenna, and AM/FM stereo with CD player and six speakers add to the overall usability. The vehicle also includes air conditioning with a micron air filtration system, remote hatch release, and remote fuel filler door release. Other notable interior features are the immobilizer theft deterrent system, power windows with auto-down driver window, white-faced gauges with amber illumination, maintenance interval indicator, dual-mode trip odometer, tachometer, illuminated ignition switch, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and rally-style console-mounted shift knob. The adjustable steering column, driver footrest, and front and rear beverage holders, along with an auxiliary power socket and 2-level center console storage, add to the convenience. The 60/40 fold-down rear seatback and passenger seat Walk-in feature with memory ensure practicality.

The mesh front grille, dual-tip exhaust finisher, rear roofline spoiler, front air spoiler, and body-color impact-absorbing bumpers enhance its sporty look. A power moonroof with tilt feature provides an open-air experience. Mechanically, this Civic Si is equipped with a 13.2-gallon fuel tank, power front vented and rear solid disc brakes, electronic power steering with variable gear ratios, and front MacPherson strut suspension with a stabilizer bar.
