We just may get the JDM CTR in Australia.

[denot]

I think we are not talking about type r, but why fuel type reqirement is lower in Australia in general.

See the Topic title...

I know it sounds a bit bullshit, but since the customer brought it up, you think it is totatlly bs? There are some facts, and what else you could sugget. Personally, I would not buy my Civic if it require 98ron as min standard. Would you? (not talking aobut type r but a 20k civic)

I didnt said it has to be 98RON "minimum requirement" coz there wont be anything to recomend after that... "minimum requirement" is sort of like 'its enough to run the car, but not the best option'. That is why the Subaru put 95 RON as minimum requirement, but maybe the "recomended" is 98RON.

VW is still a german brand, like civic is jap brand. Although civics are made in Thailand, ok, lets say, would you buy a $20k Civic made in thailand, or a $20k Babulandagulan car brand but also made in Thailand and the factory is next door to the civic factory?

You see, it is still about the brand reputation.

Again, I (and as the topic title said) talked about the CTR (and why Type Rs are 'downgraded' here in Australia), not the normal Civics.

Again, ask yourself, if you can buy brand new GTI at 38k and Type r at 38k, which one would you buy?

And for this one I still prefer the Type R (note: Type R are made in Japan).

peace out...
