Can you tell me the final cost? And have you received it yet?

please post separate pictures when you get the car

[fahadwizz]

It is in transit from Karachi to Lahore.

[fahadwizz]

Around 30 lacs.

[Nabeel_Ali]

That’s expensive
I hope it’s worth it.
Looking forward on your review. Enjoy.

I don't understand although choice is yours...that you imported a car with total cost comparable with its local variant from UK...what is logic

[fouadbakht]

Much better build quality, more features for starters

[fahadwizz]

There is no comparison to the local civic (built quality and feature wise).

The local one does not have honda sense, variable ratio steering and blue meter.

Plus i like the hatch shape and always wanted to get the 6spd manual

Paddle shifts on cvt are not really alot of fund since i already have that in my other car and i rarely use it.

[Rahat083144]

Firstly, the build quality of any foreign car is way superior to PKDMs. Secondly, the hatch shape, 6MT and 1.0 Turbo are not available here. Also the features, yes.

I can bet that Turbo is going to put local 1.8s to shame - even 4G93 @fahadwizz! Bet.

Far as paddle shifters go, they are handy especially when you want sudden acceleration e.g. overtaking, but don't want to stress the engine by flooring at low RPMs (hence inducing LSPI). Problem is, in Civic CVT, even when you're not using them and floor the car, instead of RPMs staying constant, they are programmed to go up and down in order to give you sensation of a conventional auto. These fake shifts are something I hate - and hope that Mitsu CVTs don't have it.

[Nabeel_Ali]

6MT and turbo. Epic combination.

[fouadbakht]

So while rest of us might be waiting for 11 Gen Civic with a problem free 1.5 Turbo coupled with a DCT in 2021?
In the meanwhile, @fahadwizz just went on to live the dream

[hatibrashid]

Any update

[Khurramchauhdary]

Many congratulations and wise decision.

[fahadwizz]

My Lancer is CVT. I shift to S for quick acceleration.
I find it easier than paddle shifting and they dont seem as fake.

[fahadwizz]

Thanks mate
