QUOTE(SourLemons @ Dec 11 2025, 03:05 PM) Test drive civic RS 1.5 turbo, the only thing nice is the power can vroom vroom, the rest like driving experience, transmission, NVH, etc all can say same like vios (maybe marginally better only) Don't feel like RM150k car at all I'm still leaning towards Mazda 3 at the moment. I test drove mazda 3 again cos it's just opposite honda. This time managed to go full throttle and take a corner, the car is like planted to the ground and can corner confidently. Totally different than any car i drove so far Sure or not? I drove both previous gen punya, vios and civic really big differences in term of driving experience. If u say same now, meaning either civic become damn shitty or vios improve alot

If u say same now, meaning either civic become damn shitty or vios improve alot yes, vios improved every since it got away with the dugong looks. for long term ownership, ease of repair, toyota is an easy recommendation. i've always dislike CVT gearbox but i can accept toyota CVT. honda is nice to vrooom only. vtec is its only redeeming feature. other than that, civic is a pretty meh car.

Totally different than any car i drove so far One thing you need to know despite your test drive and all, Mazda paint work is micro-mili ya comparable to other makes, if you frequent highway usage your bonet 😓 and their special color is not a one time extra cost ya, all subsequent touch up, respray outside workshop woso you hear the ‘tambah duit’ tune. Don’t later sakit hati ya This post has been edited by jojolicia: Dec 11 2025, 04:16 PM
