Basic information about my car:

2019 Honda Civic FC 1.5 TC-P 

Reasons why I bought this car(purpose):

It surely was Love at First Sight.

The exterior and interior design really made me fall for this car. I had been a fan of Honda Civics since my young days and back then I was still studying and couldn't afford one.

My priorities were surely design, features and power.

So the Civic FC surely had it all from the looks on the exterior, the interior designs, space and surely the Turbo charged 1.5 engine.

Even though Honda packaged it with a CVT which is not as good as those DSGs or DCTs but I had no issues with it till date.

The car performs well thanks to the turbo and also handles well.

I've been using this car as my daily driver for the past two(2) years plus now and I enjoy driving it every single time.

Never had any issues with it so far and I always feel happy whenever I hit the throttle. 

Car selection process

• I had a budget of: RM 140, 000
• Models that I have considered include: Toyota Altis, Mazda 3, Recond Civic FD2R, Hyundai Elantra

Reasons why I chose this car:

1. The Design both interior and exterior
2. The turbo charged engine which is surely power packed.
3. The interior space
4. Boot space
5. Fuel economy
6. Lower maintenance cost

User Experience

• I have done: 40,000 km
• My average fuel consumption is about 12.1 km/l

It drives well, handles well, power input is almost immediate, it looks very good compared to its competitors in its class and surely a good deal for the price. 

Pros and Cons

Pros of my car

1. Powerful engine
2. Sleek and Fierce Looks on the exterior
3. Luxurious feel and spacious interior
4. Way many aftermarket parts for add on or Modifications.
5. Remote engine start which is very useful especially when parked  at uncovered parking spaces.
6. Walk away auto lock which is surely a plus point as I always tend to forget to lock my car.

Cons

1. Surely the CVT Gearbox. Honda should consider DCTs or DSGs for a more fun driving experience.
2. Lack of minor features such as auto wipers, front parking camera as the car is quite long, Head up display.
3. Very narrow front seats which are a little bit of a turn down. 

Total Score: 5

Performance: 5

Quality & Features: 5

Space: 5

Ride comfort: 5

Fuel Economy: 5

Price & cost: 5

Summary:

The Honda Civic FC is surely the best decision I have made considering my budget, the specs and also the Design.

Interesting Events:

Every drive was surely an enjoyment as I love driving and the Civic FC gives me that joy every single time.
