2002 Honda Civic EX for sale in CA

Meet a timeless favorite: this 2002 Honda Civic EX in a charming Clover Green exterior with a warm Beige interior. This Civic is a great example of Honda’s legendary blend of reliability, efficiency, and everyday practicality — and it’s in excellent overall condition with a clean CARFAX report and only one previous owner.

Engine and efficiency
Under the hood you’ll find a responsive 1.0L naturally aspirated inline-4, SOHC, 16-valve engine. Designed for dependable, frugal operation, this powertrain delivers smooth, predictable power and exceptional fuel economy for daily driving. This Civic averages an economical 26 MPG in the city and 35 MPG on the highway, making it an ideal commuter, second car, or small-family runabout. With fewer than 146,000 miles on the odometer — averaging under 6,000 miles per year — this vehicle still has lots of life left and has clearly been treated as a low-mileage, well-cared-for car.

Exterior
The Clover Green finish gives this Civic a distinctive, classic look that stands out in a tasteful, understated way. The paint presents well for a vehicle of its age, with an even glossy appearance and no major signs of damage or neglect. Body panels are straight and properly aligned, and this car shows the kind of care you’d expect from a one-owner vehicle. Factory exterior features typical of the EX model include aerodynamic body styling, integrated bumpers, and bright trim that complement the green paintwork. The alloy wheels (an EX hallmark) add a touch of refinement and come wrapped in tires with good tread remaining, helping ensure secure road grip and a comfortable ride.

Interior and comfort
Step inside to the inviting Beige interior, which provides a bright, airy cabin feel. The seats are comfortable and supportive, designed for extended commutes or weekend drives. The EX trim traditionally includes upgraded upholstery and a more premium feel than the base model, and this example keeps that signature Civic comfort intact. The interior layout focuses on driver ergonomics: well-positioned controls, a clear instrument cluster, and a thoughtfully shaped center stack. The cabin offers generous headroom and legroom for a compact car and practical storage solutions, including cupholders, door pockets, and a roomy center console.

Factory standard features (EX)
This Civic EX comes equipped with the factory features that made the EX trim desirable for its day:
- Sunroof: A factory-installed tilt-and-slide sunroof adds daylight and ventilation for an open, airy driving experience.
- Power accessories: Power windows and power door locks make everyday use effortless and convenient.
- Cruise control: For comfortable highway driving and consistent cruise speeds on longer trips.
- Air conditioning: Effective climate control to keep the cabin comfortable in warm weather.
- Power mirrors: Adjustability for better visibility and convenience.
- Upgraded audio: Factory stereo with AM/FM and CD capability (many EX models also offered additional media options), designed for clear sound and simple controls.
- Alloy wheels: A distinctive EX styling cue that elevates the exterior appearance and ride quality.
- Safety basics: Robust Honda engineering with dual front airbags, 3-point seatbelts for all seating positions, and reinforced side-impact protection — all contributing to occupant safety and peace of mind.

Condition and ownership history
This Civic has a documented, clean CARFAX and a single-owner history, reflecting consistent stewardship and care. Its low annual mileage (less than 6,000 miles per year) means reduced wear and tear versus typical vehicles of the same vintage. Mechanically and cosmetically, the car is in excellent overall condition — tidy interior surfaces, well-maintained engine bay, and exterior finish that still looks presentable and cared-for.
