Marginal changes here and there. Atleast they did not spoil it.

asr245 · 24th July 2009, 11:51

Can somebody give me a lens to spot the changes? If I had seen this pic anywhere else I would have let it pass as the current Honda Civic!

hillram · 24th July 2009, 11:54

I need to look for the changes with a magnifying glass,or else i dont think i can remark the changes.

Nothing so special on exteriors.I don't expect much from inside as well.
Just a minor facelift.

Oh man, that must be the funniest (and most pointless) facelist in history. The pics show that just the front grill has been changed. On a second look, they've camouflaged the tail lights so they look like the current ones. Look closely at the reverse lights and you can see that they look odd.

The front under spoiler that looks like the Type-R is missing. That is supposed to be standard in the facelift.

Only differnce I make out is front and back light style has changed, other than this can't figure it out I guess we need lens.

prince_pervez · 24th July 2009, 12:06

Actually since there is not much facelift, I suppose it is all about getting back the attention to the Civic. After the marketing starts 'New Facelifted Civic' that is.

ImmortalZ · 24th July 2009, 12:08

Oh yeah, the headlights are blacked out from the factory instead of chrome.

vijaythacker · 24th July 2009, 13:31

nothing more then some marginal changes in interiors and few outside, butnothing like visible spot on.

geeash · 24th July 2009, 13:41

This facelift must come with a price lift as well i suppose...........

There is a reason why they didn't even bother to camouflage the car!

geeash · 24th July 2009, 13:56

are you sure that this is not one of those modded cars?

abhinav.gupta88 · 24th July 2009, 14:00

The red no plates is the sign of a car under testing. so no chance of it being a modded car.
