Vironix 1st Gear July 10, 2018 Share July 10, 2018 Hi guys. Test drove the 1.6. I am impressed.very in fact :) Good driving position and sufficient power in move off and cruising.

CarNutz 4th Gear July 10, 2018 Share July 10, 2018 I guess if u can get over how underspeced it is...Yeah indeed. I guess our eyes are wide open if we choose this model. It is not perfect but given the circumstances it may be a prudent choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yapcc 2nd Gear July 10, 2018 Share July 10, 2018 I guess if u can get over how underspeced it is... Actually the specs was something that bothered me a bit before I decided to get the 1.6. 2 airbags? - Its something you would never want to use it, no matter how many you are given. Honda sensing - Actually without this, you might become a better driver as you will be more alert to the surroundings. Rain sensing wipers - I have this in my current car, but usually don't use it any way. Fog lamps - I can hardly think of any use in Singapore except for the rare occasions when there is a extreme downpour. I tested the 1.5 Turbo too and although it is a much better drive, my passengers felt no difference between the two. Close to $20k difference to pay for slightly better drive feel is a bit too much though. What swayed me was the higher OMV compared to many other cars. Was considering the Subaru XV and Impreza too. Its only about $4k cheaper for the Impreza, but the OMV is about $5k lower compared to the Civic. Do your sums right and you know that it is a better deal even though on paper, the specs doesn't look that impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbie26 Hypersonic July 10, 2018 Share July 10, 2018 2 air bags and no other choices other than the black interior are some of the most common concerns raised. Like Altis, which started with 2 airbags and now more, think they may increase the airbags in future For side impact, the lack of airbags is a real concern otherwise, the drive for 1.6 is good enough though 1.5 with the much higher power, sunroof, rims plus other features is still value for money Hi guys.

CarNutz 4th Gear July 11, 2018 Share July 11, 2018 Some people I know are more concerned about leather seats than 2 air bags. Ridiculous but true. Haha...but seriously unless one is involved in a serious accident (touchwood of course) before,we will never treasure and prioritize the value of safety airbags and whatever features a car has. For me unfortunately,this 2 airbags are a deal-breaker for me. I couldn't compromise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
