Thanks. Another question for folks test driven both 1.8 and 1.5tc, is 1.8 significantly under powered? I liked the 1.5tcp of course,

Yes WD...A started just before lunch. Check at around 9pm for the final closing number for today.

Anyway I rushed and managed to get a 3 digit WD...A for my wife in the afternoon. Very simple process. Don't even need to fill up any forms. From the time I arrived at JPJ Wangsa Maju till the time we left about 40mins only.

Finally my car coating, tinting "gao tim" (done). Tomorrow should be able to get my 1.5tc. But I still need to return back to the service centre after 1 week to install body kits.

According to SA, the body kits parts have yet to arrive.

Where the pics?

The point is that if the turbines are spooled up easily. You have something like max torque around 2k revs? Which makes the car very easy to trundle around town.

This is the part that a 1.8NA will not be able to match not to mention there is more torque than the NA counterpart.

If this is the case, after install bodykit will they re-coat for you?

Tomorrow mar... I already mentioned tomorrow will get my car.

I guess so it's also my first time having a car with remote start too

The car is designed to run on RON95, so no timing retardation.

The cabin is cooled down and engine is warmed up before I go down from my office. Definitely a plus.

Yeah. My SA has promised me on that.

The modern steel buddy , I saw she took my car picture too 😳

What a forumer said earlier is very true (in my opinion). Dark colors don't bring out the best in this car. Bit of a shame actually.

Today I saw the Modern Steel and Red in bright sunlight. The red looked better but the Modern Steel looked dull. More of an oldie color. Looks fine in the shade but in the day time especially on the grey road, quite dull.

Best color for this Civic with its modern design and chrome bits is the White and Lunar Silver (in my opinion). Even a carbon black (blueish) similar to the BMW 5 Series would look quite nice with this car.

Anyway still a very good car and value for money regardless of the color.

Not too bad la.

I think the Honda has done well with the design of the Civic. Sporty yet mature enough.

IRR should be the most important factor of comparison. Next comes TSER.

Suddenly the coating discussion stopped. Can we arrange to get a further 15% discount on this

Well I asked the question if those who want can PM me their details and when they are able to go leave their cars at Regal Valet.

Nobody responded. So my hands are tied I guess.

But there was an owner here who mentioned my post to their SA at Honda Jln Damansara, TTDI.

U wont know if u are not seeing it on datalogs. No knocking doesn't mean timing is not being retarded.

And let's hope she post it here since I haven't get the chance to see ur car

42% TSER for the front... Should be less than 70% IRR 😂 And windscreen is the most important.

The higher the VLT, the lesser TSER. We can always compensate lower TSER in front windscreen by putting up sunshade when it's parked.
