From the looks of it, City, Jazz 1.5, Civic and HR-V seems unaffected. Only affected model is probably CR-V 5-seater. 

The testing of CR-V 5 seater which is a new model has been completed.  I think the rest still pending LTA's final testing.

Collected my civic turbo on Hari Raya eve and have driven it for around 500km. A joy to drive as compared to my previous car, a 1.2 qashqai. 

 

Some points to share:

 

- Sufficient pick-up from stationary and lots of pull especially from cruising speeds of 50-60km/h.

- Handling is pretty sharp but takes some getting used to as the steering wheel does not go beyond 1 full turn. 

- Car is really, really low. If you are moving from a SUV to this, getting in and out requires way more effort hah.

- Very good fuel consumption for a 170hp car. Getting 15.5km/l average for 70:30 highway/city driving.

- Interior is pretty solid albeit dull. Ordered a few accessories from ezbuy such as gunmetal gear knob cover, a/c dial cover etc.

- Back seating is deceptively large. More headroom & legroom than the qashqai. The sunroof also adds to the interior's roominess. 

 

 

 

Overall, a really, really good car so far. Makes my 35km commute to work a lot more pleasant.

Yeah relatively fast I guess. Had it for 2.5 years and was looking for a more spirited drive. The 1.2l engine was abit underpowered from standstill especially and I was averaging 12km/l even on 80% highway driving

 

Still young now la so I went ahead to change. No regrets.

A bit underpowered?

Even the 1.6 civic will outrun the 1.2 QQ

That 1.5t is a lot of fun. Long wheelbase certainly helps too.

If you bought new and changed the car at 2.5 years, think should lose a lot money le. But since you enjoy your new ride with no regrets, just happy and no need to think so much.  [:p]  Actually qashqai 1.2L should be underpowered, even the car is turbo. Cause you see the car so big, dont believe 1.2L is sufficient la.

Well, if you travel a lot, you can save quite a handsome amount from the petrol cost.  Enjoy your ride!

Anyone have any idea if touch up paint for rim is available for civic x 1.6

They have touch up paint for the car body.  For rim, think you need to go to rim repair shops.

Been driving for almost 6 months already..

1.) is it normal?

2.) if yes, what do you guys do after a few years - respray or coating?
