2012 Honda Civic Sedan and Coupe

[mda]

the car has a big potential to look good if proper wheel and tire size will be fitted, then add lowering springs. it is unfortunate that the early released cars came with odd looking wheels and narrow tires, making it less attractive.

True.

But stock vs stock - the FD's design *seems to have more universal appeal.

*seems, because I haven't seen the new Civic yet outside of photos online

With the way Honda is revered and marketed here I strongly believe this will still sell much much more in one year than all of the sentra 200s sold since it was introduced in the Philippines . LOL.

i agree with you, i have the latest 8th gen civic and my latest civic took me several years to appreciate its shape. i previously owned 7th gen coupe which looks better than the 8th... and so i thought. give it time and immediate mid-cycle change, the car will look different; more aggressive as majority of honda dealerships in the US are clamoring for.

This is being pessimistic. I'm pretty sure within the first 2 months of its release, the new Civic would have had more sales than the Sentra 200 in its nearly two years in the market.

And why not? Despite being below what people expect of a Honda Civic, it's still a better proposition than the Sentra.

people's comments are based on their expectations, especially if you are talking about pricey ones. i will agree, honda cars are a bit expensive than other cars, but the over-all packaging and reliability/dependability are often left behind when compared side-by-side. i am really surprised to know that in this day and age where internet is ruling the planet, many people are still relying on hearsay and not even bother to look at the sites where the fact sheets are. that's the challenge for honda, how to point that out to the buying public.

matanong ko nga lang; bakit ba napakamahal ng sasakyan sa pinas? the ligislators in the philippines should know by now that vehicles are not luxury but a necessity, unless you are buying high end cars like BMW, Merc, Lexus, and etc. Honda cars, by default are all econo-cars.

Shame that the next Gen Civic might not surpass the achievements of the 8th gen Civic FD. The Civic Mugen RR will forever be icon. Built on the Civic Type R platform, only 300 units were ever made in the whole world and every single one was sold out in 10mins. Just sharing how great the 8th Gen Civic was.

I mean the entire life cycle of the Sentra 200.

I so agree with this. Almost as perfect as the Type R FD.

HAHA PANALO ITO.

Nakakatuwa yung mga naka stock tapos ang sama ng tingin, rev ng rev parang kargadong kargado yung makina =/

[eggman]

Coupe dito?Baka nasa 1.3 Million Pesos yan at maging FLOP lang yan kaya malabong dalhin yan ng HCPI dito.

Yung 1.8 Liter EXI 5 Speed A/T na Sedan eh okay lang.

Nag wet na siguro mga members ng HCP....

Doubt it. Magiging parang ES lang 'to.

Yung ES naman hindi masyado kalat na parang EK/FD eh. And you rarely see modified ES', hence sobrang bihira lang din yung mga mayabang na nag-rerev. Pero meron pa din, unfortunately. Nung sa katip lang eh, pag u-turn nung isang ES hinataw niya habang nagmamakaawa na yung makina nya nung dumulo siya.

Hindi naman din kasi ganun ka-available ang aftermarket parts for the ES, unlike for the EK and the FD you almost see one everywhere.

Tsaka hindi ganun katindi yung "hype" sa ES nung panahon nun

[okidoc]

Very disappionting nga in my opinion ang civic na bago, hopefully honda designs way better on the 3rd gen of jazz

Lahat kasi ng Civic fanatics nakabili na ng EK.

At mabagal din naman kasi ang ES, unlike the EK lalo na yung SiR. Putsa. Lam mo naman gaano kalakas at kayabang dating nung kotse na yun. :hysterical:

This is the one I spotted in front of Philamlife Bldg along Paseo de Roxas.
