Honda Civic VTi 1.8 i-VTEC Oriel Prosmatec Rating

My first impression, "Oh this is a slightly longer version of Honda City"

I really dont like the Exterior, but the Interior Rocks. Black Color which lacks a little shine though is awesome curved giving an amazing feel infront of you, the LCDs and the Meters are seriously outstanding the positioning of the meters do not get your eyes away from the Road.

The new Aero Dynamic body Shape and with a lighter body having the same old 1.8L engine are the key ingredients for a far better fuel economy.

Leg Room is nice, very comfortable seats good roof distance...

iMID technology is something we all would love to have.

All in all i would rate this car 8/10.

I had always been a fan of corolla and have driven the following models quite frequently, 82, 86, 2001(indus), 2005, 2006(2d saloon) and 2010(new shape). one thing i must admit and im sure few of u will disagree with me, over the the years corolla has lost its credibility and the present model is crap. the 2002-2007 model had serious stability issues and the driver side power window malfunctions on every second model, the new corolla is no good either. stability has improved but it has sluggish acceleration, interior is old school, new st... more

PROS
1. Extremely hitech interior
2. Very responsive engine ( faster than altis 1.8)
3. Quality material used
4. Very nice handling and cornering
5. superb design, with sharp angles giving it a mean look
6. steering and throttle are very responsive

CONS
1. Its a bit fuel hungry
2. Spares are costly
3. maint is a bit costly

i once had a race with a corolla altis and by the time the car shifted to third i cud see the altis 1.8 in my rear view mirror, in short i would advise for those hooked up on rollas, just drive a honda and see what you have been missing

Great car for the Pakistani market. In terms of looks and style, the Civic Reborn is the best car to come from Honda for a long time. Everything from the seating position, to the location of the dash, and the digital speed meter, shows that a lot of thought went into the design process and the result is that the Honda Civic is one of the sharpest and eye catching cars out in the market today. In terms of suspension and cornering, the Civic is miles ahead of Corollas, Sunnys etc and is a pleasure to drive. The auto transmission shifts seam... more

Great car for the Pakistani market. In terms of looks and style, the Civic Reborn is the best car to come from Honda for a long time. Everything from the seating position, to the location of the dash, and the digital speed meter, shows that a lot of thought went into the design process and the result is that the Honda Civic is one of the sharpest and eye catching cars out in the market today. In terms of suspension and cornering, the Civic is miles ahead of Corollas, Sunnys etc and is a pleasure to drive. The auto transmission shifts seamlessly and quietly, and the engine is very responsive in both city and highway driving. The best buy in the market today for Pakistani manufactured cars is the Civic reborn. Only change I recommend is to change to Michelin right away, instead of the crappy Euro Stars the dealers put on the car. Beyond that, you really dont need to do anything else to the car, just buy and drive, and have a smile on your face !

Lot has been said and heard about the comparison. The bottom line is.... Civic does not compare with Corolla, if at all, it should be compared with Altis.

While Japanese did their best in producing this pure beauty (civic), and we Pakistanis destroyed it with our usual cheating.

The body material is worthless, feels like crap, paint wears out with slightest touch and plastic...... man, it feels cheap like China toys.

I don't know why we get carried away with this useless discussion of comparing Civic with Corolla a... more

I don't know why we get carried away with this useless discussion of comparing Civic with Corolla and not stop for a second and demand quality form these blood suckers.

Buying a car is no more a priviledge, as it once used to be. Its a commodity now...

Wake up bros, lets behave like educated consumers. and chose betwen the ones who offer better quality, better service, and better customer relations.

Choosing between "teen-dabba" will not get you there.
