Really felt like I was on a Playstation as I had to keep on looking at the speedometer to check if I could still push harder in a corner or not. With my 11th gen Altis, the chassis was communicative enough to tell me if I had grip or not. The FD was even better as both steering and chassis were very communicative.

    It doesn't feel planted but I was suprised it could still take corners quickly. Really takes some getting used to but the FB can still go faster than most compacts whether on the straights or twisties.

    Hi Sir. Hingi lang sana ako ng advice from you since you have driven the Civic FB and the 11th gen altis. I am now in a dilemma choosing between 2 used cars - 2015 Honda Civic 1.8E AT FB2 (19k ODO) and 2016 Toyota Altis G AT (12k ODO). They have the same price at 700k. Sulit na ba yan sila sa price na yan? Location is Cebu.

    Here are the things I'm looking for a car
    1. FC (mostly driven in a city)
    2. Durability (planning to keep them more than 5 years)
    3. Parts availability
    4. Lower Maintenance Cost

    Salamat po

    I'd take the Altis G.

    FC is roughly the same with a slight advantage for the Altis. Durability is also the same, both cars have no major issues. Parts availability is the same if you buy fron the dealerships. For 3rd party sellers, most likely it's easier to find parts for the Altis because it's more common. Maintenance cost is roughly the same - the Toyota has 5,000 km PMS intervals while the Honda has 10,000 km intervals.

    ^ haha

    She looks a bit like maddie madayag though.

    But it's hard to believe they live in that civic supposedly for months at a time. Tibay din nila at tibay din nung fb.

    do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do

    If you’re entertaining a 2.0L gas car as a daily driver, just enjoy it and never compare it with a small car with a small engine.

    I use both an ASX and an XT as my daily drivers. One is NA while the other one is turbo. I get 7-8 km/L on the ASX and 6-7 km/L on the XT (Paranaque-BGC route).

    I guess it is safe to get 7-8 km/L on a Civic 2.0L in mixed city-highway use, or maybe 6-7 km/L in BGC traffic conditions.

    haha youre right bro, i just wanna know kamusta yung consumption vs FC turbo.

    FC turbo ng friend ko 5.5 to 6km/L - almost the same as my current daily driver.

    *edit - Same pala as my current daily driver.

    FD is out kasi the interior didnt age well imho.
