My favorites would have to be the 76-81 (1st gen) and the 4th gens (90-93) I own an 81 Civic wagon and 96 Accord. I never cared too much for the 5th gens, but mine was a very low mileage (40k miles) and exceptionally clean car...and I got a pretty good deal. Most of the 4th gens I looked at had well over 100k-150k miles. Now, almost three years later, mine just turned 150,000. I never could fiogure out how people could put so many miles on Accords, now I know.
