Hey guys,

I am in the market for a new car, so far its between the civic Top Spec Turbo and the High Spec Mazda 3 (waiting for the facelift with g vectoring)

I would like to know what are the problems and issues that you face with the honda civic 10th gen? I tried to go through the threads, but there are too many pages..  Hope that all of you can help me out.  Thank you

Civic already comes with Agile Handling Assist (g vectoring equivalent) as standard equipment.

Agile Handling Assist
A Civic first and standard on all trims, Agile Handling Assist selectively uses the vehicle's brakes to improve initial turning response and overall cornering ability. Agile Handling Assist utilizes brake vectoring to improve corner traceability and confident handling feel. By applying braking force to the inside wheels during cornering at high lateral G, the system creates a yaw moment, thus generating more turning force and reducing understeer.

Civic type is the industry norm which uses the brakes as a form of torque vectoring.

Mazda's G-Vectoring Control (GVC) takes thing into a new territory by controlling/adjusting the torque through the spark plug timing, not brakes. And unlike what the industry norm, GVC is active the moment the steering angle is changed and the ECU will take into account speed, throttle position and steering angle to calculate the optimum retardation required.

Brake actuated torque vectoring only comes active when slip is detected.
Sounds like ESC/ESP/DSC but slightly advanced system. Be great if gear box is able to divert different torque to each wheel.
