Honda Motor?s B-segment sedan, the City, continues to soldier on for 2012 and onwards with a minor refresh. The mid-life facelift gives the City a new ?Arrow Shot Form? corporate grille, redesigned front and rear bumpers, and revised tail lamps.

Sir, your comments are really overwhelming .. Thank you so much!

Thank you Bhai! As I havent tested it on long routes yet so cant say anything. However, from the pictures I posted earlier you can predict how well it will perform on highway.
I will definitely update you, whenever I get a chance to test it on motorway.

Thanks:-)
Yes i can guess from your pic
But i ll wait for da update:-)

I agree with you sir. Honda has compromised on quality in lot many areas e.g. there is no sound dampening treatment for dickey and bonnet, similarly others have complained about its low quality fabric used on seats and hard plastic interior but in Pakistan it appears to be a much better option as compared to other locally manufactured cars in this category.
To me quality issues are offset with the performance and new features Honda has introduced in this model.

Can u adjust the volume from the steering wheel in the Vti model, because my car is coming in a week.

@pyromaniac...i see everyone comparing new civic with Altis..however I feel its more logical to have a comparison with the outgoing model of civic i.e 2011...can u pl shed some light on how new civic's below features can be compared with outgoing civic:
1. acceleration
2. suspension/comfort. I know that 2011 civic is not very comfortable on bumpy/rough roads and suspension feels hard.
3. cabin quiteness.

Sir, all the three areas you have mentioned are more or less improved in New Civic.

Acceleration is very good, I drive manual and I absolutely love the acceleration despite driving in ECON mode which tends to lower the throttle response a bit. May be Auto will feel a bit sluggish but with manual transmission you can drive in whatever gear you want irrespective of the ECON mode (on/off).

Regarding suspension if you check the spec sheet you will clearly notice that suspension has been overhauled. It's not the same suspension of 8th Gen. it's no more a bumpy ride even with the Eurostar stock tires. If you think Corolla is comfortable then I assure you ride quality is very much the same as of Corolla in city as I have observed.

Cabin is pretty much quiet and if you are a calm driver you will notice the quietness even better.

mubark ho lala,,, kindly share the trunk pix,,

[khurram_aziz]

I am not being biased cause I own both rides and I am completely satisfied with both but the day I got civic in my garage, Altis is almost a neglected ride with dust cover on it.

Altis is blunt and borring no doubt!

Coming from a man a recently bought Altis
This isn't a promising statement. Bdw we never got a detailed review of the Altis AT from your side.

Congratulations Brother on your new ride! MA the ride looks awesome in white color! It would be nice if you could compare the new civic side by side with Altis 1.6 MT. Since I own an Altis, will like to see how it fares against civic, in the senerio of switching over to new civic. Drive Safe!

Thank you so much Lodhi Bhai! my pleasure sir, I , myself, was planning for a brief photo shoot of both the rides to compare it side ways, parallel and from rear to feel how do they look next to each other. I'll soon fulfill your wish I.A.! and thanks once again for your compliments!
