No comparison with Civic 9th Gen, you will be disappointed if you did. However, whats your options then? Ciaz is no doubt better than City in build quality, features, sepcs, ready availability, fuel efficiency and price, and in few things even better than GLI. Max of my friends and collegues after seeing Ciaz now planning switch from expensive local crap, and i reckon it will reclaim Suzuki's lost market due Liana. Even at service stations guys and customers there cant stop praising Ciaz. I mean why not discounted MT Ciaz 1710000/- shouldnt be preferable over MT City 1850000/-? Gone are the days when there were things like resale value, mechanic available on roads, availability of parts etc. Things are rapidly changing, road side mechanic simply cant fix new gen cars be it corolla, genuine parts were never cheaper, getting non genuine is no problem in this global world now, just approach and JDM parys provider, he will arrange, and finally now you always sell in loss and loss on Ciaz is already catered in shape of discount and no own money.
