Yes in terms of the specs and what's on offer, the 1.8L is a good deal actually. I was actually surprised that Honda had so much on offer for the base 1.8L. Its as if they were worried that the 1.8L sales would be poor.

Items like walkaway auto lock, remote start, 8 way powered seats, electric parking brake, rear aircon and curtain airbas are usually reserved for the higher spec models to boost their sales. But Honda decided to offer these as standard for the 1.8L as well. I even think that the Shiruken styled rims offered for the 1.8L looks more classy than the other 2.

In my opinion, the only selling point of the 1.5L is the turbo itself with the LED headlights coming second. Besides that, other add on's are irrelevant. And for the turbo, if it was a twin scroll  then I would have considered paying the extra 10K but since its only a soft turbo, it doesn't quite entice me.

I was also worried that the interior finish and material quality would suffer with the 1.8L but it doesn't seem to be the case here.

So yeah, now im more confident that getting the 1.8L was the better choice. At about RM118K only, I think its surely value for money.

Sound argument...totally agreed.

The 1.5 turbo engine may give new buyers some uncertainties judging from the complains from Peugeot 308 turbo engine. Read from the internet, some engine need to be overhauled at 40,000 km due to carbon buildup. Wonder how much does it cost?

I saw those civic first service in China using this engine cleaner, is it useful to reduce the carbon deposit that happened to direct injection engine?[attachmentid=6795690]

Is this supposed to be poured into the petrol tank? Think local Honda has this when do servicing.

I just went to the showroom and discovered that the civic only has 6 speakers, not 8 like claimed on the brochure. A pair of tweeters on the wing mirror. A pair on the front door and  another pair on the back of the headrest for rear passenger. Nothing on the back doors.

SA just called. Allocation for cars from HM is not based on first come first serve. HM will send whatever stock they have, so if my request for Lunar Silver is not in the 1st batch delivery, they'll give to whoever wants that batch

That's why he can't promised when will I get my car choices

Still ok la. Thestar says booking before launching is 1,100 units. I heard the production is about 1,000 units per month, so you will still get your car either this month or next month.

All the maintenance similar to the 1.8L engine. And being a Honda, it should be reliable.

Just take note to let the engine idle for 30 seconds before shutting down if you've driven it hard or ended a long distance drive. It is to allow the turbocharger to cool down. If shut down too early and the engine oil which lubricates the bearing cooks, you'll have bearing failure prematurely and/or the oil supply/return hose will get clogged up with carbon.

Could you share the source for this news? Thanks!

To those who have placed their booking, do you take the tinting package from Honda? <a href='http://<link removed>/2015/07/01/honda-malaysia-3m-ecotint-window-tint/' target='_blank'>http://<link removed>/2015/07/01/honda-malays...nt-window-tint/</a>

If opt for 3M, able to upgrade to Crystalline series instead of this lousy Horizon Safety?

Free RM1.5k tint and optional top up other range in kch hehe
