Which Civics are KM actually bringing in?

[email protected] SG

There're quite a number of models that can be found on the net. Seems that there are models of differing front n rear lights, i.e lights that look like Odyssey's n Integra are of different models. Heard that there's the european n jap models..

Also, there are contradictions in KM's specs when compared to the specs obtained thru the link of honda.com.sg

Anyone else here who has made a booking for the new Civic can help? Rolling Eyes

The new Civic is the jap model and not the Euro version... I've actually got the specs list from KM...

i've been to the "coming soon" link from the honda webby. i was juz confused abt the models indicated as 1.8GL, 1.8G, 1.8S, MX etc. coz i;m not sure which is actually the 1.8 sedan 5AT vti-s.

btw, there's the "tiptronic" manual gear changing in this new auto civic. what's the name of tis function honda's calling? coz so far i tink i haven't come across tis in its specs.

n thank god they are bringing in the jap version.. coz it seems to look nicer than the euro version. i mean wif the lights being nicer.. agree?

If i never rem wrongly, the new civic does not come with manual-override... I tink the ones u saw are overseas specs... SG only has 2 versions of the 1.8l sedan, VTI and VTI-S. Both are the same except for the cosmetic differences, juz like Mazda 3 sport and Latio sport... The same goes for the 2.0l model

New civic wheelbase is 2700, it it too long for some multi-stoery car park sharp bend.

seow SG

Really ah?
Then those big mercedes how? Much longer what, park outside?

i was doubtful too, until i checked the overide function with KM's agent. There truely is tiptronic in the vti-s. Anybody can re-cnfm this?

My god.

The Civic 1.8GL.... abit CMI in terms of looks.. Totally spoil the Civic lineage..

And why cant they bring in the nicer looking US version? I mean, just look at the huge-assed Accords that KM brings.. compared to the uber cool Accord Euro-R.. And they've just done it again with the Civic.

[email protected] SG

well i've been thru some other opinions. seems tat the jap version wif lights similar to the integra is more appealing. the euro version's not bad, juz a little dull though.[/img]

Anyone know the price for auto?

nightsky87 SG

Haha.. I am a civic fan too, like you, but please don't take any offense k.. Never meant any...

The lights comparison between Civic and Integra

Don't really look alike..

But the WORSE part, the WORST is undoubtly

Nothing to say.. speechless..

It's a SPOILER definately.. spoils the looks.. bwg liao.

[email protected]@tle SG

the above pic is the civic hybrid......which has a gentler design....correct me if i am wrong.

yes i agree with u that the euro version of the civic looks better....

w2k_83 SG

Wheelbase is different from the length of the car... The length of a car can remain the same but yet the wheelbase expands... Wheelbase is actually the distance between the front and rear wheels, so the car length can remain the same but the length of the engine bay or boot can shorten to allow the wheelbase to expand... Hence the wheelbase of the new civic may be long but the length of the car isnt...

[email protected] SG

nah.. no offense taken nightsky. btw, i don’t like tat spoiler too.. but i’m not sure if it comes with it. coz i tink it’s a buy-separately accessory.

nightsky87 SG

Haha yep.. But i think spoiler is really part of a Civic. I asked around and a lot of people agree that the SIR, Vti, etcs really do look nicer with a spoiler. The current Vti facelift looks nice with the standard spoiler, because it really 'clicks' with the car..

Well, I guess let's wait for the new Civic to hit KM showroom. Wanna go test out the new Civic together? Razz

[email protected] SG

we'll see how it goes... anyway i made a booking for tis civic already, shld be able to get it in feb. wish me luck in tis new car, n for buying it without even seeing it!

nightsky87 SG

LOL!

I think I shall stay safe abit.. Wait for second or third batch to arrive then buy. But the new civic really looks.. unique. Think I'll go for the Altis or Camry 2.0 liao Shocked

i tink if u're waiting til next yr, mabbe u can consider the new 2006 nissan sunny. i've seen some pics n it looks like a mini cefiro, bigger, with a better engine compared to the current sunny. Smile
