deep down in the heart of every Malaysian, they wanna get Honda..

unfortunately, Honda price is a bit turn off..so, just buy other cheaper model..

this is based on my experience..others may differ with me

i dont see how the Gen 8 Civic is more stylish or beautiful than the Gen 9 Civic .Maybe Honda have plenty to live up to after the Gen8 has given them much success and adoration.

It is a proven brand and as such it ought to sell more expensive than its competitor especially with malaysian mindset businessman.

i personally have seen the new civic at honda showroom and see nothing wrong with it even with the much critisized  hard plastic dashboard

the SOHC was preferred for better FC without compromising much on power and i'm sure many potential buyer will like this . the 5 years unlimited mileage warranty offer a peace of mind and there are extras features added in as well with 1 or 2 k more than previous model. so what is the fuss about

bro, i don't think i have ever seen a new model launched which is priced cheaper than its previous version. the price increase for 2.0 is about 2K. if you averaged out 2K over ~5 years, and factor in the inflation, and some of the features given and also the new 5 years warranty - i dont think the buyers are any worse off. i think the debate between SOHC vs. DOHC will be never ending, but to the normal users - i dont think the difference will be obvious.

btw, i dont understand when ppl debate over if a car is value for money. i always see a car as a lifestyle, and a choice. i've already accepted the fact tht owning a car in malaysia will never be cheap. so the question should always be - how much you are willing to spend? not which offers the best value.. cars that are so called value for money usually have an underlying reason why they are priced lower.. right? haha

local content doesn't mean cheaper parts
typically locally assembled cars has a lower price due to tax differences
but to say that local content means cheaper parts, hence lower car price is not always accurate
you need to look at the volume and economy of scale for the local made parts
which would you think make the cheaper part?
- a factory in japan producing a part at a volume of 100,000 a year
- a local factory making 10,000 of the same part a year

Between 1.8 and hYBRID... WHICH ONE better? =)

Spec is better in Hybrid (add RM4k). Other Hybrid car cause RM14Xk++.
Insight and Jazz is smaller and HB. Should not insult any car as Pondan or whatever as choice is down to each different individual. Choice must not be undermined. Thanks. =)

Wow you must be driving a F360 masculine ferrari.

If you haven't noticed already, Japanese manufacturers are moving towards electric and hybrid. The Civic is just another casualty of this green environment and Eco movement. It's going to continue this way for years to come so deal with it

how can u expect everyone doing that same thing??

u are kidding? its like asking why mcdonald do not sell ramly burger and why kfc did not sell satay...

why must honda follow toyota??

everyone here is not going to buy civic, we know we know ,now go buy your ford/kia/hyundai/peugeot ok?

bro, i dare not ask these questions to the honda lovers here. Too advanced la bro..enough la..let them be..

The FD2 civic doesn't even have onboard trip computer but nobody made any noise..y ppl like to be sucked dry by Honda??..I don't understd la these ppl..

sigh..with this mentality Mysian auto scene will be very boring and becoming more and more like indonesia and vietnam market..

anyway...their money their choice..for the others use your money to buy something more interesting.

Get a life

there, you've said it yourself. there are certain things that you can't and never will understand. doesn't mean that honda started as 'spirited driving', all of their cars have to comply to it. ffs, even Lambo has SUV now.

the first time i sent, they suspect due to paddle lock that i put at brake paddle. that i put at accessories but suggested by honda salesman. so, already removed. the second time it happen, they did reset the edu, the trouble code and that's all, according to them nothing is wrong..no charge. then it happen again the third time, this time i was driving at third lane…luckily the traffic was not heavy, i managed to stop at roadside before it suddenly dead..plan to send to honda again but if they keep on saying the same thing, what u all suggest me to do? any opinion? really feel headache with this problem, coz I'm planning for long distance travel with family. afraid the same thing happen again, quite dangerous lah, suddenly cannot accelerate then engine just die off like that.t

Aiya...last time M3WHITE says, he have an expert honda friend at SC that said 'FD more powerful than FB'.
Cannot help?
Actually, your problem hard to explain. Ofcoz, SC can connect the ECU that indicate the problem. But how if ECU indicate your car is ok?
To get better fuel efficiency, most hondas have been equipped with ECU PGMFI -Programmable FI. This system is different with other manufacture. PGMFI also have in honda motobike as well. As Honda Cbr user, i know how the system working.
In PGMFI, there some function called DFCO - Decel Fuel Cut Off. Act, when braking the car approching traffic light(example) at certain RPM, the engine shut down. No spark and ignite at this moment in engine combustion while your pistons are still moving. Once your car completely stop, then engine will ignite again.
This is brilliant design from Honda for fuel saving but unlucky u may have the defect ecu. Maybe.
Not sure, whether M3White's expert friend(SC) knew about this.

Disclaimer, this is my opinion. Could be wrong.

Why u are so emotional bro?
Take it easy bro, relex!!!!
Act more mature bro!!!

OK OK, your FB is the best vehicle on earth, I ll sell FD & buy FB, happy?
