Foglight is led. Heard that led headlight cost rm2k each so it pretty much justify the price gap. Don't forget premium spec also receives Hydraulic bushing as well.

i dont mind if they take out navigation and put something else

btw, is that RS spoiler in thai compatible with our models? IINM, brakelight on RS is located in spoiler instead of rear windscreen

Not sure, but should be compatible since its the same platform. Im quite disappointed Lanewatch aren't available.

The New Honda Civic base price will encroach very closely to Base Honda Accord price.

It does not make economic sense if one were to buy Honda Civic instead of Accord unless you like Civic very much.

IMHO

Thanks for detail explanation. Normally how long to take for them to move from the initial first batch to the successive batch?

If I'm not mistaken base price accord is 141k while civic premium is 135k. So it does make sense to choose civic over accord for that price.

Ventilated disk brakes and electric seats as well. Agreed that they can add more things to justify say a rm7k difference.

do we get the black front grilled with thai RS version?

Electric Seats are standard accross the variant based on the advertisement by Honda isnt it?
Great Info bro, this means that the difference between the 1.5 Turbo and the 1.5 Turbo Premium is the LED Headlights, fog lights, Navigation, Auto Leveling headlights and chrome handle. I hope they would price this both variant correctly with their specs because it doesn't look like much of a difference between this two variant except for the Headlamp

Electric Seats are standard accross the variant based on the advertisement by Honda isnt it?

My SA called to top up another RM800 for Civic booking. Last month I only placed a RM500

Not sure, but should be compatible since its the same platform. Im quite disappointed Lanewatch aren't available.

sure or not only premium got hydraulic bushing?

Don't make sense leh...they shouldn't be asking for more money as the deposit money is just a "que" to reserve a unit for you. When I bought my car last year, i just deposit RM200 only and got my actual "reserved" physical car about 2 weeks later. By 3rd week, the car delivered to show room and 4th week loan under processing.

No idea why they ask so much, maybe is their commission 

Seems like we are getting similar specs as our Indon neighbor.  Perhaps once Honda gets the EEV status tax breaks for this new Civic 1.5T, they can then introduce a higher spec RS version like our Thai, Philippines and Australian counterparts get while maintaining the price.  The RS gets a few more goodies, like Red illumination dashboard, lanewatch, turbo meter, interior ambient lighting besides the exterior sporty black grill and rear spoiler.  Exciting colors like the Brilliant Sporty Blue and Rallye Red is also missing and maybe waiting for the introduction of the RS version.

I think the black grill looks great!  The Brilliant Sporty Blue Metallic is also a nice color which we are not getting..
