No, i dont think that grey importer can bring in Honda cars anymore, IMHO, as far as I know for "normal" grey importer.for "super" grey importer like NAZA, that one i dunno.

Honda Malaysia barred grey importer from bringing in recond honda cars , for what reason, only God knows.Thats why you didnt see any new recond Stepwgn,Crossroad,Odyssey,Stream, integra, civic ep, s2k,inspire, accord wagon bring in by grey importer anymore

i say, Honda Malaysia is much more worse compared to Kah Motor era.DRB-HICOM is one big gigantic blood sucker company.FYI DRB-HICOM is the franchise holder of Audi, Honda, Mitsubishi, General Motors, Isuzu, Mahindra, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Tata.

sad to say, i dun think they gonna bring in this Type R.you can only dream on.
power of dreaming is that what they give you :Not_Impressed:

Beautiful car, lot lot lot more better than last model.

Last model was selling almost 200k when first launch in Malaysia, hope this one not that expensive and hope to see it on Malaysia's Road soon, hehe.

 

[billy-sea]

good show...

 

[minivan]

I heard that Honda actually wants to bring it here to Malaysia, but is worried about the fuel quality here, which makes it hard for them to deliver what is promised of the car (performance, reliability, etc...)

 

[rossimamyudi]

I agree that the Type R on the seats looks corny... they should have used a recaro instead...
Btw.. does the "FD" in the Honda Civic FD Type R title means Four Door ? Just a tembak guess ,lor.. what do u think ? :tongwink:

 

[bangkai_jk]

hehe.. mayb last generation of civic start from E so the new generation start from F.. lol
