Hi, I went around testing Honda Civic and M3 this weekend.
Realised that Honda Civic is all CVT which I brought the subject matter that Nissan TC cannot repair any CVT but can only order new ones to replace. The sales exe told me that Honda warranty is 5 years regardless of mileage! Kah Motors repairs their CVT and claimed their technology on CVT is different from Nissan.
As you all know, Nissan CVT cars cannot move off fast even if we press hard on the accelarator but the Honda Civic begs to differ.
Like our Latio, the engine is smooth and quiet (unlike the M3) and I am able to accelerate effortlessly despite having full loaded adult passengers (5 adults).
The M3 engine is louder and seems to need more power to accelerate (Felt that the engine is rough). The M3 autogear is normal AT.
I am wondering if the quiet and smoothness of the Honda and Nissan cars are due to CVT gearbox?
I was also surprised when the M3 sales exe asked me if my gearbox has been changed! He explained that CVT normally dont last.
A fact that we all knew by now but Honda sales exe claimed its their std on all their cars now and there are no CVT issues.
Guess Nissan CVT technology knowhow is inferior to Honda's.
I was so impressed that I decided to book a Civic.

Their Car brochures all stated now CVT is standard equipment for all Honda Cars. And they gave 5 years unlimited mileage warranty!
I was quoted tradein value quite low as they stated my tyres (2 years old) balding and had an accident before (rear).
But I managed to get back $2K tradein value today, how? I dont think its nice to reveal as I didnt do it purposely.
It was not the sales exe that convinced me to buy, it was the Civic!
