1.8 any day. Compromise a bit on the fuel economy if you have to, but go for 1.8 and you won't regret it. The drive and comfort of premio along with that engine is awesome. Had premio 1.8, changed to civic, and the civic sucks in front of it, the fuel economy, comfort etc all very inferior to premio.
