I am using Hong Leong Mach car loan, it is more flexible for me to reduce the principal of the car loan up to 30% to reduce the interest and shorten the instalments in the end.

Car loan interest so low why wana pay more n reduce? Use the money and invest elsewhere and earn higher returns la.

Both front and rear was designed soft to absorb impact.
You prefer damage to main pillar or the replacible parts?

Hi. Good day sir/miss. I am Jimmy, from TTP, an independent market research company hired by J.D. Power to conduct a survey on respondents who bought a new car from Sept 2015 to May 2016. The selection criteria are that the car must be new car bought in that particular period and interviewee must the main decision maker for purchasing the car. The interview will be voice recorded for QC purposes. The interview will take about 40 mins. Upon the completion of interview, you will be given a token of appreciation of cash RM50/RM65 depending on your car model. There are quota for each model of car, so please act fast. If you are interested or have any enquiry about this survey, feel free to PM me. Thank you for your time. Im sorry in advance if this msg do disturb you.

Our civic default HU is already android, like an android tablet. So don't turn your HU system into android again.
I believe some might already knew that our HU runs on android 4.2.2, thus this translate a couple of things we can do to your HU like example changing the default HU screen wallpaper into live wallpaper, connect wifi and browse.

I'm didn't play much with it yet, maybe just maybe we can install waze into our HU via USB that is compatible with android 4.2.2 unless the HU is program to reject app installation.

Not sure if you are referring to the Civic or the Wira being a Milo tin?

Either way, ppl need to depart from that old mentality of seeing a smashed up car and assuming its a milo tin. That's the crumple zones and its specially designed to crumple and absorb the energy from the impact by controlled deformation. If this energy is not absorbed or dissipated, it will be directly transferred to the passenger cabin. This is basic Laws of Physics.

Newton’s first law states that an object in motion will stay in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. As a result, if a vehicle is travelling at 110kmph, the passenger bodies inside are as well, and if the vehicle hits a solid wall and comes to a stop immediately without any crumple zones, the bodies will continue going in the same direction at 110kmph.

Passengers will continue to move forward at the same speed until they come in contact with a part of the automobile or another human being, causing severe injury. Even after a human body comes to a stop in an accident, its internal organs continue to move, slamming against each other because of the impact, often causing serious internal injuries and bleeding.

That's why crumple zones are very important. But crumple zones need to be paired with a strong passenger compartment to prevent intrusion or structural collapse.

If you walk around the Civic and do the 'knocking assessment' you will find a lot of hollow sounds. Being hollow is ok because it means that there is internal space for the crumple zone to collapse and its energy absorbed. In most continental cars like BMW, Audi, Merc and VW, you will find less 'hollow knocking sounds'. This is because these manufacturers generally include a lot of energy absorbing materials within the crumple zones. Try closing the boot of the BMW 5 Series for example and ull understand what I mean. But if the Civic were to follow the same route and include all these energy absorbing materials within the crumple zones, im certain we will be paying about 100K more.

Most importantly, Honda has done a very good job with its chassis and strengthening the passenger compartment. That's why the Civic gets the highest crash rating of Top Safety Pick Plus by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety America (IIHS).

It also obtained a 5 Star overall crash rating by the NHTSA with individual 5 star ratings for frontal crash, side crash and rollover. Just for info, the 2015 BMW 3 Series also obtained an overall 5 Star rating but only got a 4 star rating for frontal crash.

Why would airbags deploy? Unless the front impact was considerable. Don't seem so in the pic.

Heartbreaking to see. Yes, the Civic is designed to be one of the safest cars in it's segment today. What this means is that the car will "sacrifice" itself in crumpling to absorb energy in a crash to reduce the sudden deceleration impact of the human body. Unfortunately, when the car crumples in the crumple zone, it doesn't look pretty. Most importantly is the safety cage remains intact and does not crumple keeping the occupants safe.

"In the event of a traffic collision, your Honda has an “ACE” up its sleeve. Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure (ACE Body Structure) is an extensively tested and award winning, passive safety technology.

The ACE Body Structure (now in its second generation) is like your vehicle’s specially tailored skeleton. Tested in Honda’s own indoor, multi-directional, crash-test facility, this skeleton has been built to disperse the force of impact across the vehicle. It features a polygonal main frame, which pushes frontal collision force away from the passengers. In an extreme frontal collision, this makes it less likely for the body of your vehicle to fold in. Also, Honda has strategically made “crumple zones” at areas that are commonly known to have difficulty remaining intact upon impact. With the ACE Body Structure, the “crumple zones” absorb force with the help of high tensile steel."

Sounds like the same marketing gimmick Toyota used since 2003 with its GOA body. Totally rubbish. The Vios was a real milo tin. Even structurally not good. vmad.gif

But at least Honda's version (ACE) lives up to its name. rclxms.gif

Personally, I don't care if the car sacrifices itself and dies as long as it keeps me and my family safe in an accident. Even smaller bone fractures can impact your lifestyle for sports, movement etc for life. Car ... there is always insurance and can always get another one. Life and lifestyle, there is only 1 to live...
