Hi,
Vti-S is definitely more worth it, 2-3k more than the Vti, but with
20 more bhp....... much more decent pick up etc.......
The reason i believe most pple get Vti is due to the fact that the
cost of the Vti-S insurance is almost double that of the Vti. I
remember getting quoted 1.7k for Vti and 2.5k for Vti-S, something
like that............ and that was only earlier this yr.
Btw, the civic is know for air con compressor problems. During my
almost 4 yrs, i spoilt the air con compressor twice......... with
no particular reason. The compressor is Sanden. Not too sure if the
new model still using this.
