Anyone want to buy a used civic HX? After running 4 tanks through it, I've decided to dump this thing. I should have noticed it when I test drove but didn't. The car has the wrong transmission in it. The guy I bought it from said he replaced the transmission with a low mileage used tranny. Gear ratio is way off. Fuel consumption lousy. Like 33 MPG. Probably too much hassle for me to locate the correct trans. & swap it out. I've parked it and am now driving my old one with 217K miles on it. Back into the 40+MPG zone. Really bummed out about it.
