I am about to buy my first new car and the civic sports looks great for me. Just some questions:
1. can you open the boot via the keys
2. i read somewhere it comes with boot tray as well, is that right?
3. which colour would you reccomend?
4. the dealer i went to today had a demo 4000 km. What would be a good price to pay for it? its in misty violet
i ask many questions to the dealer and he had no idea, so thought it would be better to ask you experts
thanks

1. yes with key, however not via the key remote. there is no button on the boot lid either (like the euro)
2. do you mean boot tray or boot liner?
3. silver moss/sparkle gray. black looks hot in the showroom but just means scratches and swirl marks in real life so STAY AWAY
4. how much were they asking? i don't think you'll be able to bargain them down as the civic is still in very high demand. one of the reason's they'd be trying to sell the demo is IT'S AVAILABLE
You cannot get Silver Moss for the 07 model.
With the demo car, the most id pay for it is the price of the car without the stamp duty, gov charges, rego. There is a silver moss for sale in Melbourne. $30k - 6,000km - tinted windows - honda road side assist etc. This could be a guide. Search around in carsales to get an idea of what the demo goes for. Not a bad price considering you cannot get the colour any more
^ that is why i said sparkle gray.... same shit :)
unfortunately sparkle grey doesnt appeal to me. Theres nothing sparkle about it. Wish they had the Mugen blue colour.
I always wonder why people still go for the Civic Sport manual when a manual base Euro is about the same price drive away (Euro has free on roads, 1 year free comprehensive and 5 year warranty).Quote:

But yeah black I wouldnt recommend. For a lazy/busy person the car will only look good for about 2 months.
Civic is newer model la. Some people prefer the leather and paddle shifts that come with a top range model.Quote:

Can't compare SP23 and 6 because they have the same engine. And 335 has a bigger engine than an entry 525i. If they made a Civic with the 2.4L engine, then it makes more sense not to get the Euro. But now, when comparing Civic to the Euro, even the size is almost the same! (euro is only 10cm longer, 1 cm wider and 1 cm taller).Quote:
