Whitefield Honda. Same as 1.8s -MT except for the automatic gearshift/paddle shift. I think its available in Dakshin Honda as well.

The misty violet is available only on the 1.8V-AT variant. All other colors are available on all the variants.

AFAIK the misty violet is available in 1.8V MT/AT. Will confirm with dealer and post.

@ST

You have me confused again. <sigh>. Dont know which model. I guess I will go to the showroom and tell them I want a Civic, toss a coin if heads then I take S if tails I take a V. There you go! Best way to decide.

ST7677 · 11th October 2007, 10:37

My apologies...

I myself had a tough choice between MT & AT, thankfully S & V options were not available at that time.

@csentil:

Maybe you are right on the AT case. The features page on the Honda website no longer mentions a variant in 1.8S AT. However prices for 1.8S AT are given in the price section. Bad website management by Honda!

Also the features page on the Honda website mentions that the Aux in is now a standard for the 1.8S MT too.. The dealer says not to both the above mentioned things. Should I try a different dealer?

Yup, I too checked that out and got confused.

Hey, I just called up whitefield honda here and they told me the 1.8S AT is very much availableand in production. Aux In is not available in the S Model.

Did you try writing to Honda (there is a feedback form on the website).
Even I was told that Aux-in is available on all models now.

If not, it's a pity.

thefreak · 11th October 2007, 16:00

Hmm... I am awaiting confirmation on this from the Dealer. The dealer guys had no clue as to what an Aux in is. Also when I talked to the dealer he started giving me a load about the only difference being leather seats. When I started detailing the differences the guy was quite taken aback

Maybe new dealership (1 month old) and still learning. Also he may have been used to customers knowing far less. Many thanks to one and all on this forum! Each one of you rocks!

Civic Owners - Does civic comes with only 2 keys(remote) ? Isn't it all honda comes with 3 keys ? Ie:City zx come's with 3 keys .

ST7677 · 11th October 2007, 17:02

I got 2 keys, 1 with remote locking-unlocking buttons and 1 just a regular key.

It's on finance so not sure if 1 key (what type?) is with the financier.
