Still waiting for other feedbacks. Tnx

My shallow take (we have a 2010 Civic FD and 2012 Altis):

The Civic has more power, especially on the open highway, and is more engaging to drive (better steering feedback and there is semblance of handling unlike the soft Corolla Altis). However we had more maintenance issues with our FD (at roughly 40,000kms mileage); busted PS hose and when it was new, it had a water leak that soaked the carpet. The Altis on the other hand is more comfortable and relaxing to use for the daily grind and the only problem we have with it now is that brake caliper sound/kalampag which we're trying to fix permanently (so far the CASA has not been successful). The Altis transmission also seems to be more refined (less shift shock); even my sister's 2012 current model Civic still has shift-shock.

Maintenance cost-wise, I cannot fully comment on the Civic since i did not really bother over the CASA records but i think Toyota is still cheaper and based on my ownership of both an ES Civic and Gen 9.5 Altis, the Toyota still gave me less problems . When the Civic busted it's PS hose, Honda was charging around 12K for the new part if i recall correctly although the bonus of Honda is you only go for service every 10,000kms.

Overall, if i had to buy again... my money will go for the Toyota. If you're looking for an Altis, better if you can get the Gen 10.5 (2011 to current) which has the newer ZR series engine.

Wala ba average fuel consumption ang 2010/2011 civic? Hindi ko kasi mahanap dun sa testdrive ko na 2010 civic 2.0s.

Mura na ba yung 2010 honda civic 2.0s 51tkm for 585k?

That's a good price as the early model Civic FD 2.0 (2006-2008) are priced around 450k to 500k in the used market (personal sellers). Assuming it was bought middle of 2010, the car's average annual mileage is 14k. Just ask the owner for a complete maintenance record. Maybe you can ask for a better price, like 550k perhaps or better.

Yes. But everything's negotiable. So start by going lower ;)

Bat ganon, 2009 registered sa lto but purchased february 2010? He turned down my offer 500k ..

How about 2012 honda civic fb 1.8e 14k mileage for 720k?

The Civic is a joy to drive the sportsman with better steering and possibly a faster engine. The Altis is more of the hardworker the more practical choice but doesn't provide you the rush when you need to be punchy. We have the 2004 and the 2007 altis. My colleague had the 2009 civic.

We have agreed at 550k! And i will go to honda tom for a more detailed check on the car

Possible the plate was earlier assigned to the dealer by the LTO. So if you don't request for an ending from your dealer, they might provide you with an on stock car plate registration. Thats what happened when we bought a car 2 years after from the same dealer. The newer car had an earlier car plate compared to the car that was bought 2 years ago.

No problem with the car! It just needed to be changed oil.
