hello guys. After few years driving Inspira & Preve, now I'm joining this club. Before this I was contemplating either to buy Civic, CRV or Tesla M3, so last week had tested CRV RS, for me just meh. 30k for slight advance feature from Civic eHEV. Tesla M3 too hassle to buy n bring to Kuching, and EV infra still small here in Sarawak.

So i just made booking for a ready stock white color available in Kuching showroom.

funny thing that my SIL bought HRV V spec early last year, then my wife replaced her Preve with City RS last October, my sister just recently gotten WRV RS last week, and now me with Civic. Once loan application status settled, maybe can get the car end of this month or early next month. new car for raya yeah

Opting for Civic instead of CRV says a lot about you. Your age and still having strong legs  biggrin.gif

i'm not young anymore, already 40 biggrin.gif

CRV is for family size comfortable drive with big rear seat, older ppl also suitable. Tuned for comfort with a high ground clearance above 7". Cannot compare with Civic eHev which have a sportier tune. Civic has a ground clearance of 4.8 to 5", knee pain when going in and out of it. Harder seats. Not so comfortable compared with CRV. If you are one who loved to drive, (coming from Preve background that have good handling) the handling of sedan-based Civic definitely is satisfying than the comfort tuned high ground clearance SUV.
*
yup i do love driving. thought of buying CRV because of practicality of bringing my old mom and easy to drive/park in kuching. so thank you for the expensive price, i can get fun drive experience back with civic.

I am mid 30s already crying getting in and out. Worst are long drives, after 2 hours my whole body ache due to the seat and low seating position lol.
*
is it because of the stiff seat? early this year i drove back straight from hadyai to KL using my wife's car newly City RS for almost 10 hrs, so far still comfy

if keras then i just buy seat cushion

Then in that case, once you got used to the ease of in/out of SUV, difficult to go back to sedan.
*
Previously my late dad owns CRV 1st gen, I already got used to it. Just that I like sedan cars more, opting on new CRV just for practicality. Also here in my hometown, im driving my sister's P2 Aruz which is sucks to the max. So stressful driving this underpowered rough sampan SUV.

And currently my Inspira is driven by my sister in KL, dont have chance to bring it back to Kuching yet, so better i buy new car for my use here

Main concern in Klang Valley also....ground clearance too low, risk of flooding is real.

Kuching also same...even now few times got flash flood in this rainy season. CRV is more practical.

Have never driven an Aruz. Are they really that bad? But I see many and even Axia driving faster then my G6 CRV on the highway, probably driving at 150 kph. May be those driver's have titanium you-know-what.

when u already got used to drive powerful, sporty and good handling sedans, then drive an Aruz, surely ranting.gif ranting.gif ranting.gif

Is it possible if I wanna buy RS spec but have SC to change to V spec rim?
or
I buy RS spec with RS rim then later on change it to V spec rim myself, will it affect the warranty?

Asking this because if prefer V spec rim, planning to wrap it black

Why not just buy V spec instead?

I am also a ehev owner, whom had this steering issue. Mine was changed around this year CNY time. So far the issue has not cropped back up. Truthfully it is still pretty new, only about 2 months or so.

1. When steering left , right or making correction.  There's always noticable delay before the car turn.
2. Steering feedback it almost none. It just feel numb or dead. I'm not sure if this is the expected feeling one should get from EPS system or not.
3.My old inspira on HPS, steering feedback very direct, engaging, not sure how to put it in word... it just feels alive/connected when driving, I could make better steering adjustment based on steering wheel feedback.
*
definitely eps. i got the same feel on my wife's city, my sil's hrv & my sister's wrv

yeah i still driving my inspira around, back-to-back with my wife's city. while my sister having joyride with my civic at my hometown now

Unfortunately I'm not able to keep my inspira as my home minister complain about the space on porch despite it could fit 3 car nicely lol.

me too. gonna let go my inspira too since it gonna be abandoned whenever i back working at my hometown


QUOTE(nicotine @ Apr 8 2024, 10:42 AM)
Steering feedback on my 1.5T rs, the ps4 rubber gave me the familiar feel as if im on cheapskate eco tyre. While similar uhp tyre on my inspira i have that "i'm in control and connected feels" sort of hard to explain in words, you have to experience hps system with uhp tyre only then u know what i'm talking a about.
*
maybe for me, the car brings me smooth driving experience without feeling too sensitive-connected feeling, since i already can accept that honda cars gonna be this way

Hi all for eHEV spec. Any idea if it is possible to claim from sc if the hybrid system is found to be degrading? Example electric motor is less powerful?

Or the claim is only allowed if the hybrid system is found to be not functioning?

Has anyone done this sort of claim before? Esp those who has a hybrid car over the years?
*
how to know if the electric motor become less powerful?

Anybody changed the civic's regular speakers to Bose? or just look for any third party speaker brands?

any third party that have plug & play speakers, dsp & subwoofers?

there is the pedestrian acoustic sound that can be disabled, so i wonder how does it sound like if it is enabled. Check youtube is if the car in reverse mode it will emit some sound and at below 20km/h in EV mode also will have sound. Just dunno malaysia one how it is implemented.

Had a few roadkill on cat and dog since i got the car, especially at low speed and at night suddenly cat ran out from side.. quite dangerous the car is dead silent especially if even the aircond compressor is not running at night then fan also no running.
*
some eerie music as my wife said, volume not too low or loud

got one time, i just parked my car, then suddenly can hear two cats fighting below my car. since im in P mode, i pressed the pedal to switch on engine and they ran away 😄
