My friend has a Civic Hatchback that's pretty old, and he beats the hell out of it, so I imagine a Civic for less rural use would run pretty decently for a while. Just watch the exhaust, I know his is crap, but again it could and most likely is attributed to how he treats it.
Somehow even as much as I've driven it between PA, VT, and NC my 2001 Saturn still is only at 50k miles. I don't really know if I expect it to see 100k as it was rebuilt from salvage but for now it runs pretty decently.
