Why do you not buy Civic FD?

Many of us have memories of the heydays of the Civic (EG and EK series) with its high-revving engines and F1 inspired all-round double-wishbone suspension.

Things have changed eg emission standards and Honda marketing strategy. For these reasons and others, Honda has detuned its engines for the mass market.

It really depends on what expectation you have for the car.

Every car has its pros and cons

 

Since the decision is already made, dont't worry too much about it!

I'm sure you will be satisfied with MOST if not ALL of what the Civic has to offer.

[Jiayong]

dun worry about what other pple say.

 

Ask them what car they driving first before listening to their comments.

With the choice of 2.0 SI, you can't go wrong. It won't be perfect but neither will it be far worst off than other makes in its category. Guess the only set back is its pricing.

Bro, I tested the 2.0, nice low end torque, u should enjoy it too. Just abit pricey i find, and other personal dislikes.

 

Depending on your priorities, if the FD suits your needs and taste, then there's no wrong choice to make.

[Bitauren]

i got it because i think its very nice personally

 

heck the price

 

like can liao!!

[Falc]

It's definitely a nicer overall package than many of the bread and butter models out there, so no worries.

 

But if u r getting the auto, better have patience to tahan the wait.

[Bitauren]

[Falc]

For poor people like me can't say 'heck the price, like can liao'. If not, I'll be driving Ferrari 599.

no la. i calculated my finances .. can still make it .. so i got it n also i like it very much

 

actually wanted to get the 1.8 den my fren said better to get the 2.0L SI cos it comes with a k20 engine. same as integra one

 

is it?

 

i know nuts about it

[Falc]

Yes, same as the normal integra , but not the integra type R.

Type R is much more powerful of coz.

[Coolpica]

I'm just joking. Love to get the Civic FD as well, but I'm looking at the 1.6L. 1.8 and 2.0 tax are too high leh...

[Silver_z]

No high cam.

IMO, Hondas are over engineered and as such represent real value for money on top of driving pleasure. It is always referred to as the "BMW" of Jap cars. Of course it does not mean it is like a bimmer but the co shares the same philosophy- driver oriented. The new gen Hondas are well screwed together and drives/handles well, with adequate power to boot. A bread and butter car that has credentials. That's the beef! Cheers,

[Bitauren]

can u guys tell me how is the 2.0L SI compared to other 2L cars?

[Carmaniac]

ya loh.. precisely... Civic ugly meh!?!?
