All New 2016 Civic

[Shutterbug]

Then the same may hold true regarding fuel efficiency!?? It says that the new diesel engine gives almost 80mpg EPA. Wow! 😱

Very likely the same tune as the new CRV here, a 1.6L turbo diesel doing 118bhp/300Nm.

Maybe more since the Civic is only 1.23 tons vs. the CR-V's 1.52 tons.

Ouch! Nasagi or sinagi?

Binangga ko hehe. Not. Minor damage lang naman sa front right bumper. Looks like he/she probably hit a plant box or tall curb during a turn.

[Egan101]

the conversion factor is easy.

Yep, 1 metric ton is 1000 kg. Same conversion factor as kilogram to gram.

Update sa 1.8e bro? Nagtext yung SA ko kanina na available na daw yung RS turbo WOP. Tinatanung kung kukunin ko oarin daw, pina mo e ko kasi yung reservation ko sa CRV

TT TT TT


expired na yung loan approval ko wala parin akong unit.

may ako naaprove for 1.8 E, then hinikayat ako ng agent na mag Limited edition, recon approved in june.
Then after reading this forum, nalaman ko pangit yung LE. So this july, pinalipat ko sa 1.8 E. so pinila ulit, ang problema expired na yung approval ko,

TT iisang bank pa naman ang nagapprove saking noon.

2. Ano po difference nung Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT Modulo sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT ?

5. Sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT, ano po yung mga tipong brand new defects? Meron po ba?
Ano po yung mga dapat icheck para masure na hindi 'lemon' unit yung kukunin ko?

6. Wala po ba talagang humihiling na magkaroon ng manual na civic? galing kasi ako sa manual, so i prefer talaga kung brand new manual car sakin.

7. Meron po bang nagpapark ng Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT nila under the sun most of the time? ano po mga effects?
Open parking lang kasi ako. pipilitin na isilong, pero most of the time, open parking talaga. babad sa araw.

1. Honda Civic 1.8E ...
2. Just some body kits, better to stick with the standard Honda Civic 1.8E ...
3. Get loan from the bank, dealer loan is very high ... they just get from the bank and pass it on to you ...
4. Depends on the dealer, depends also if there is stock ... varies from 1 day to many months ...
5. There is no guarantee whether you won't get a lemon unit ...
6. The Honda Civic RS comes with a manual ... 2.98M ... sold out already ...
7. Consider having paint protection like glass / ceramic coating ... also a high end tint like Huper Optic, SunBloc or V-kool VK series ...
8. Ground clearance is a bit low ... no reverse sensors ...

*sofiacutie - will share some insights on some of the items you raised. The new Civic owners can share their views on your other questions.

1. Civic, no question. It is a much better car over the City.

2. Only difference is additional body kits

3. Entirely up to you how you will pay for your car, whatever the best deal go for it. There is only one Honda car dealer in Taguig and that is Honda BGC. You can try Honda Makati (Magallanes) but it is under the same management as Honda BGC which is the Honda Ayala group.

7. We park some of our cars under the sun. My in-laws and I share the same parking area. We cannot fit all of the cars under the covered slot so some cars are parked outside the gate. No issues whatsoever except getting dirty.

Hi sofiacutie

1. Go for Civic 1.8e. Pinagpilian ko din Honda City VX and Civic 1.8e. for the price difference of ~200k, I have no regrets.

2. Body kits lang

3. General recommendations for this is get loan sa bank, pero may mga sabi sabi na mas priority daw minsan ng casa mag release ng unit sa mga in-house lalo na mahaba pila sa Civic. Not sure kung totoo yun depende siguro sa dealer. I can refer you sa agent ko sa Honda Sta. Rosa.. mga 1 hour drive nga lang from Taguig :D

4. Nag pa reserve ako ng unit inabot ng almost a month bago nagkaron ng available and unahan pa yun so depende kung gano kagaling agent mo. Nung ininform ako ng agent na may dadating na unit ni-request nya na bigay ko na downpayment para sure. Unit was released in less than a week since hinintay pa delivery sa casa.

5. Before releasing the unit, pinakita sakin yung checklist na ginawa nila. Tinest drive nila yung sakin before releasing the unit para sure na walang defect.

6. Sana meron pero wala po.. Type-R lang yun manual dito sa pinas

7. Wala pa bubong yung garahe sa bahay. Downside is dumihin lang talaga and mainit sa cabin once na gagamitin mo na. Dun papasok yung remote start feature ni Civic para malamig na yung cabin before you enter.. hintay ka lang mga around 5mins. During coding day and weekends lang nabibilad sa araw Civic ko

8. Hmm mas malapad and mahaba compare sa ibang sedan like City so sa masisikip na kalsada at parking eh challenging talaga. Malakas sa gas pag naipit ka sa traffic although tipid sa open highways or pag wala traffic.

Sana may magtyaga sumagot ng questions if not all, some.

1. Civic, no doubt. The Civic has a better ride, better looks, more power, and more prestige than the City.

2. Body kits, definitely not worth 55k. Better to just spend that 55k on other mods. I spent less than that on my Civic and I think it looks much better than the Modulo Civic.

3. Bank loan is always better because the interest is much lower. Usually you're looking at 26% interest from the bank and 40% interest in-house. That's over 150k difference.

4. It will depend on the availability of the variant and color you choose. On average, around a month because the Civic is in scarce supply and has high demand.

5. Just the VSA modulator defect, which people call the "woodpecker" sound. It's easily fixable and is under warranty. Have not experienced it with my Civic though.

6. No manual Civic. No market for it. Only internet fanboys want manual Civics but the broader car buying market prefers automatics. I also had a manual Altis before my Civic and I had no problem adjusting.

7. My Civic is parked in the open most of the time. No issues whatsoever. I use the Remote Start feature to turn on the engine and aircon as I walk towards the car so that it's cold already by the time I get there.

8. My biggest gripe is the lack of paddle shifters and droning feel of the CVT. When I rev at 6000 rpm the car just drones which has a dull feel to it.

Other minor gripes - small stock rims, chrome grille not my type, no leather steering wheel, slightly laggy head unit.

1. Honda City 1.5 VX+ NAVI CVT or Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT?

Depends on how you can stretch your budget. Of course, the Civic is the better car. It's larger and has a premium feel to it.

2. Ano po difference nung Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT Modulo sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT ?

Body kits only. There's a lot of aftermarket mods to choose from and it's cheaper. But, personally, adding way too much bodykits will make the car look so jologs. Lol! The car look stunning as it is.

3. Kapag bibili po, much better po ba na inhouse installation payment or car loan sa bank? Best dealer po na closest sa taguig?

I paid cash, so, can't give you any sound advice. Lol.

4. Usually ilang days bago makuha yung car if done downpayment?

A month or two. High demand kasi. No stocks.

5. Sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT, ano po yung mga tipong brand new defects? Meron po ba?
Ano po yung mga dapat icheck para masure na hindi 'lemon' unit yung kukunin ko?

For my unit, none so far.

6. Wala po ba talagang humihiling na magkaroon ng manual na civic? galing kasi ako sa manual, so i prefer talaga kung brand new manual car sakin.

I'm a manual guy as well. There's no choice but go with the automatic. Actually it's my first time to drive an automatic. Lol.
You'll get used to it eventually. My left leg is missing the clutch so much as it moves on its own when I shift to D. Lol!
When I drive my other car which is a manual, I automatically step on the brake and turn on the engine! WTH?! Lol!

7. Meron po bang nagpapark ng Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT nila under the sun most of the time? ano po mga effects?
Open parking lang kasi ako. pipilitin na isilong, pero most of the time, open parking talaga. babad sa araw.

Anything under the heat of the sun will eventually damage it. Give it 4-5 years. There are a lot of ways to protect your car's finish (Big Bert's, Ziebart, Anti-UV car cover, etc.) Bottom line, your car is better off under a shade. You still have to worry about bird droppings and tree sap as well.

8. Ano pong mga ayaw niyo sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT? #realtalk sana. walang bias. wala naman atang perfect car.

1) The horn! It belongs to tweetty bird. Lol!
2) Tire lug nuts can rust easily.
3) The plastic part of the hood which is at the front. I hate it because the color transition of metal to plastic doesn't blend well.
4) The rear tail lights. If you look really closely, if you wash your car or if it rains, water can get trapped into the gaps easily. I have to use a blower to force the water out.
5) The wiper. You can't just spring it up anyway you want when you want to clean your windshield. There is a sequence. Left wiper first then right wiper. If right wiper first, it will get stuck from the left wiper. WTH Honda??
6) No mud guards!
7) No side step protection/moldings. The area around the sides can get scratched from your shoes when you get in and out of the car.
8) Spare tire belongs to Mr. Bean's car. Tire width is narrow. WTH? Lol!

Other than this, it's a great car!!

1. Honda City 1.5 VX+ NAVI CVT or Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT?
- City kunin ko pag daily or hirap ako sa malaki sasakyan at medyo maliit lang ako na tao and pati sa family mga unano lang kami. Hehe..

2. Ano po difference nung Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT Modulo sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT ?
- Nababaduyan ako sa mga may body kits so go for 1.8e na lang.

3. Kapag bibili po, much better po ba na inhouse installation payment or car loan sa bank? Best dealer po na closest sa taguig?
- Do your part and research, part ng car buying? Pero sabi nila mas mura daw pag sa bank?

4. Usually ilang days bago makuha yung car if done downpayment?
- 2 weeks ako nag antay, 2017 red RS. Depende na rin siguro sa dealer yan.

5. Sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT, ano po yung mga tipong brand new defects? Meron po ba?
Ano po yung mga dapat icheck para masure na hindi 'lemon' unit yung kukunin ko?
- Dashboard rattles and ung oem yokohama advan Db tires sobrang ingay. Weird, advan line up pa naman at Db series pa. LOL.

6. Wala po ba talagang humihiling na magkaroon ng manual na civic? galing kasi ako sa manual, so i prefer talaga kung brand new manual car sakin.
- If you really want a manual, pede mo naman pa convert. Pahook up ka lang MT tranny, linkages, and pedal assembly sa mga kamaganak mo abroad with MT civic. Gastos ka nga lang.

7. Meron po bang nagpapark ng Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT nila under the sun most of the time? ano po mga effects?
Open parking lang kasi ako. pipilitin na isilong, pero most of the time, open parking talaga. babad sa araw.
- alaga lang sa wax at a minimum.

8. Ano pong mga ayaw niyo sa Honda Civic 1.8 E CVT?
Walang paddle shift 1.8

Janemar may dashboard rattle ka din? Sa akin near the driver side aircon vent. It comes and goes and I could ignore it for the most part but still - disappointing for a Honda.

Funny I don't find the tires loud though.

I have that exact sound on my driver's side aircon vent as well. Car is only 2 months old.
