Civic 06 prices .. anyone already put a deposit or buy one?

regardless of where the car or anycar for that matter is built has nothing at all to do with how good or how bad the car is going to be.

the fact is the manufacture has strict QC programs in place be it honda, bmw, vw, etc.

the U.S civic (sedan) i beleive is built in thailand, while most of the asian version civic's including our's is shared between plant's in japan & thailand.

on the accord euro, i still can't understand why the hell a japanese brand of car would have euro associated with the name.

also people are saying that why buy a civic sport when you can have a accord euro for the same money. now is the accord euro 33,000 + orc? & is it not a standard car with no option's?

The suspension and ride quality of the euro's ten time better then the civic......I'd fork out the extra to get the euro if it was my choice.

how did we end up talking about build quality anyhow........honda's got a clean record in that area.

You should see what VW get up to......*shocking*

The rrp of the Euro Std auto is $35,500. But dealers are willing to offer that price as the driveaway price. If you bargain hard you might get it just under the rrp. BTW, the Euro Std has lots of options (features) not available in the Civic Sport. See my earlier post in this thread.

Leather and moonroof won't help you when you're in a "situation". Only the ESP (standard in the Euro) will. Anyone intending to purchase a vehicle should seriously consider ESP as within the next 5 years it'll become standard.

ESP PREVENTS you from crashing !!!

the ESP in the euro is pretty amazing...........specially over long'ish fairly deep puddles.....

what ever tyres it's got stock helped heaps as well...........

i've got no idea what the civic can offer in that department.

half the fun of driving, imo, is dealing with stuff like that. prevension is the best course. if you aqua plain, you're most likely going too fast anyway. you have eyes to look out for big puddles too.

and as i said, if i crash i have airbags plus my insurance :)

not bashing the ESP tho, its a great idea, but its not worth overlooking the civic.
