Rep Power: 0 That Civic was introduced by Honda Malaysia to reward Civic fans. The normal Civic EXi, VTi and VTi-S are the usual drab Civics similar to those seen in the US.
Inspiration came from the USDM Civic Factory Performance Coupe (for the wheels), the JDM Civic Ferio RS for the skirting, and the Thai Civic RX opened up the possibility to make a Malaysian RX.
Headlight finishers are thin plastic pieces that come in primer grey and can be sprayed to match your car's body colour. The JDM RS Civic has internally blacked out headlights, so the 'finishers' allow even normal headlights to get "The Look".
I went to 2 dealerships today and checked out production RX Civics. They were cool and those Japanese Dunlop LM702s are yummy. The seats are production versions except for the imported sports headrests and the leather is locally made, based on an original design by Honda's Singapore distributor, Kah Motor Singapore (KMS).

Rep Power: 0 I wish HondaWerx could get their hands on a set of those wheels. Also, it's too bad Honda doesnt sell the FP pieces seperately, cause I'd like to get the wheels.

The Coupe only exists in North America and Europe. I am not sure about the rest of Asia.

Rep Power: 284 iamboo made his headlights like that. Just paint them 
lease: I'm still not liking the fact that the civic has that big @$$ resonator box. When I took out the resonator box to put in my FIPK, there was a HUGE space. It's just unecessary IMO. They could've made something smaller and with less retriction.

If they made our cars with more hp and w/ DOHC then most of us couldn't afford them. If you wanted more hp and DOHC you should've bought a Prelude. I wish I could afford one. :-)
