Hey guys, just to ask is it worth to get used CIVIC FE V spec or should I go for brand new? Personally I think the new car price is not worth it but used unit also kind of expensive, but my concern is I may proceed to mod the headlamp to a brighter one, add a CVT cooler to it, and also BSM, so the warranty will be voided too if I getting a new unit. By the way, may I also understand better on the steering rack issue? Is it just noise or will it cause safety concern? Thanks.

QUOTE(DM3 @ Oct 7 2025, 02:29 PM) U got to check around here,and FE FB to knw how bad it is,until many sold it off in less than a yr for some. Also ask urself this,if ur current job allows u to keep going to SC @take lots of leaves then ok. As fr steering racks ,nobody had bad incident b4 like lost control but the feeling n sound is annoying and some have counter turn away frm your intended turnings. My case I kind of jus enjoy the rides and wrk closely with SC team to solve it.my FC total 22x+ in n out of SC due to claims/repair n my accord almost 18x in past 2yrs Thanks for the reply, I check around and most complaint about the steering rack, which I don't know how is the noise or feel, then also the seat being too stiff and some rattling noise in the car. For my case I think I am left with not much choices, I want a c-segment sedan with Turbo engine. Additional topic, is the resale value of this FE good? Used car dealer told me FC resale value is better than FE. |

QUOTE(DM3 @ Oct 7 2025, 03:09 PM) Yes besides racks issues another common issue is the absorbers/suspension noises. And yes it's fun car to get with the 1.5t ,power yet economical . Also the RV sucks already vs FC,now can sell as much as 8yr old FC.mine after 7+ lost bout 37k only vs FE near 38k in 2yrs wah that is a huge different, why FC resale value so high? Popular demand in 2nd hand market? I thought FE should be more refined compare to FC |
