any info the bose sound system ?

I booked mine end of October - RS - Ignite Red. I wonder why the embargoed the interior of the Civic. It’s not like we haven’t seen it in other countries already. Or I hope that HM may surprise us with the 10.2” cluster for the RS!

Other video reviews that I could find

Red are cool as well, with the black painted side mirror and all that, but for me red too hot sia haha

White and Black low slightly low profile for me, i probably go for Black 

the rs confirm do not have the 10.2" cluster

the training slide already indicate that

Yesterday I went to test drive a CRV and enquired also about the civic.

The salesman must have thought I am rich enough to afford the CRV and so kept telling me the civic S lowest spec will likely not have Honda sense (above 130k) and V spec will be 140k+ as speculated by some previously. While civic RS will be 160k+

He also mentions that it’ll take another 3 months for Civic to be launched. In other words he is trying to imply I got no choice and time to wait for civic. Must buy a CRV NOW!

I think all these salesman wanna sell something real quick and as high as possible…while we as consumers perhaps still care about our wallets. At least I do. But for sure I’m not keen to find the same guy.

My own take from this doesn’t change, I have waited long enough for the 10th gen to phase out so that Honda sense can be passed downstream to S and E for lower, price, but if due to inflation or greed, they wanna keep the price higher I guess I may either just get the old model 2nd Hand, or my first choice is to buy a Corolla cross. All I’m saying is competition is stiff in this price range too.

I also went to test drive the 1.8V Corolla cross and I’m quite happy with it, except for the lack of power. I now have every belief that the hybrid at 137k will solve all my problems…so, I’m more keen towards that if the price of Civic is same. Even the 1.8V is already acceptable actually (I’m not a racer, I’m actually a very mild uncle).

if rm160k+, i find that I got a best deal back then for 2.4 Accord at rm175k 6 years ago. They seem to price their whole model in higher price nowadays, current-gen accord close to 200k

6 years ago perhaps ketam only under 120k and then you were still spending 1.5x for the Accord. Things are relative. By the way, we are stuck in this useless discussion about why things are expensive (aka why I can't afford this and that while my neighbour can, wawawa), because we have wondrously capable government system that ensures our RM is ever so competitive, by ensuring that our citizens are ever more competitively skilled, educated, incorruptible and hard-working. This is how a currency (value of a country) appreciates vs USD. In other words we deserve it. The question should be how to work our way out of this mud.

And then D segment also went out of fashion when ppl flocked to the CRV  (for now, at 170k) which seems to solve more problems than an Accord. So, OEM's did the smart thing by re-shaping their product tiering a bit...

Personally they need to keep that gap at around 30k / 25% from Civic to the next higher, and 25% above from the lower tier (City). Too different and ka blam, their business models start going out of whack.

The most important thing is are you in (the new Civic) or are you out?

btw many showrooms sell Accord full spec around rm150k and 160k after rebates. thanks to the high price, spec offer, people rather buy Conti with that price.

right now, the 1.5T full accord is 150k?
Good job for demand vs supply..

can find on market offered by few SA. thanks to very low sales for accord

which showroom can get 1.5TCP accord for 150k? 

last i checked most 1.5TC in that price ranage are testdrive car with ~2k mileage.

I guess red will be the most hot colour for this gen. It also goes well with the red stitching in the inside. I'm also liking the new Meteoroid Grey Metallic colour. The video first impression reviews really shows off the 2 new colours.
Just said I hope bcoz they embargoed the interior pics. It might be because of the red stitching which is similar to the Japan Civic Sport.
