It is the pricing not confirm yet

price High spec 2.0 is RM139k, price for 2.0 low spec is RM5k less.
Price for 1.8 (only 1spec) RM119k.
From what my agent told me.

At RM139K, is the 2.0L Civic really worth the price?

Well said. The Japs are beginning to fall behind in terms of equipment and specs but yet they still choose to price their cars ridiculously high. I guess they will continue to do that as long as demand is there. Imagine paying RM 139K for a C segment 2.0L which got such poor ratings in the US until the Honda CEO had to come out and do damage control.

is civic same rank with camry or accord?

Civic is C segment while Camry & Accord are D segment.

same rank as Altis, Forte... lol

I went to the Honda showroom earlier and the salesman actually showed me the new Civics behind their service center.

I have to say, I actually like how the 9th gen look on the exterior, it appeals to me much more than the 8th gen does. The interior looks relatively basic for 1.8L but everything that needs to be there, seems to be there. It still uses key turn ignition and there's no cruise control. Steering wheel looks ergonomic and pleasing to the eyes.

The 1.8Navi version has all the bells and whistles but at the end of the day, is it worth paying so much more? It boils down to how much you like the look of the new Civic to want to pay for it vs the better spec Koreans.

As a personal opinion, I definitely think it looks better than the Elantra and the Forte but would I want to pay the premium for it? That's a different story....

boss... i wan go


dude, u snap those yourselves or u got it from somewhere?

unless u are the owner of the shots, please give credits la

dude, the civic drives much better than K5....
remember, there is people who buy the car for how it drives... not because they are sold on the features list...


why ppl buy an empty lotus elise and not a more souped up compact?
because the lotus drives way better... thats why

How many of those who bought the Civic actually did so because it drives better? Are u sure it was 'drivability' that made the 8th gen Civic a success in Malaysia? I doubt so. Malaysians in general dont know what 'drivability' is in the first place. Im not much better myself.

Added on July 11, 2012, 3:24 pmwhat about the hybrid? does it come with navi? opting a suitable car for my girl.

guy drive Q7.. girl should drive A1...

7th gen civic.. the ES is literally a failure...

so for the 8th gen, honda took a radical step and it paid dividends...

2006, when the 8th gen civic is launch..
at this price bracket, there is not much choice... altis? bleh... camry? bleh...
civic trumps this segment...

futuristic interior design...
fluid body line...
generously spacious on the inside and also the trunk space...
comprehensive spec list at that time...
drives well and if not the best in the segment.. (for those boy "racers" in you)

those are the selling points...

its Q5 and im not the one buying for her. or to be more precise, i don't see why i should buy my girlfriend a car lol.

They were washing the hybrid so I didn't get to see it on the inside, but SA did say only the top end 2.0L version gets the navi.

At the back of the showroom, I've seen:

1.8L
2.0L
2.0L+navi

The hybrid sits between the 1.8 and 2.0L range.
