The previous 2006 Honda Civic photos which I’ve posted are the US/European model. As usual, the JDM model for the Civic has a totally different styling.
The JDM model has different headlamps and a different grill. The bumper is different too. I noticed the US sedan model has only 1 large airvent on the bumper, but this model has it separated into 3.
The 2006 Civic for the Malaysian market will probably be something in between the US and JDM model. We will probably only get the Sedan version. It’s likely that the 1.8 i-VTEC will replace the 1.7 VTEC we have currently. The 2.0 i-VTEC model remains.

Paul, off topic: what's the URL of the blog-tal that you started again?
I was expecting you to put a link here somewhere on paultan.org, but can't find it.
always thought that the malaysian version will follow the US version….same to the honda accord, toyota camry n even the corolla altis?…
the first time i wanna c the US model here…more better looking….more resolvevd….the jap version looks like a second time work..
man.. why can't they just standardize the looks.. the europes get so much better looking hondas than us..
aw23: i did… the button is above my Site Meter button on the right sidebar.
US/European CIVIC is looks like ACCORD! Honestly, the rear is not SMart as previous one, it looks like old honda INTEGRA and mixed with old BIG Ass ACCORD, rights?
Paul, ARE you OKAY now? What the doctor said? Tell us more!!
those arent airvents.. the side ones are for fog-lights, just like the Accord's.
i hope we get the American version, this car's rear styling is soo wrong..
Got it, thanks. Can make the button bigger, or higher up?
- it's very small, and it says "blogs: msia" -> no good clue as to what it is. I suggest "msian blogs" is a better description also.
- compared with the Site Meter and Listed Blogshares button, it looks even smaller, and not important.
- it's "attached" to the "date:suanie!" button, which makes it even more inconspicuous. how about separating them with a tag?
This is badddd styling, not good, i dont want this! But if the previous is for Euro and US market, am afraid that we are not gonna get the Euro one but the JDM version! Horror! Horror! In the past we also get the Asian/JDM version, like the Accord, there is a Euro styling which is much better than the Asian version. Boo! Hissss!
our Accord is actually the American version.. Honda Malaysia chose it over the JDM/European version coz its bigger and more comfort oriented. the mammoth size gives it a fair jab at the Camry. though it doesnt look look it, the Accord is bigger than the Camry (by 5mm)
^ …. doesnt look LIKE it, the Accord ….
^^ …. doesnt look LIKE it, the Accord ….
sorry for a silly question but what does JDM stand for?
neura,
you kidding me, have you check the Honda European models? that're all half baked
just check the current and previous Accord models .. and compare them with the Jap ones .. you'll surely 100% love the Jap ones compared to the European one.
yup this one the light look a bit integrarish i
hey bro krug by the way jdm means japanese domestic market
but for this version civic i like usdm better but still prefer this one one tail light lah hahah cause cover more surface
but i see this jdm got lots of mod potential
Paul, If you still not feeling good, come try the "SEE FU oil" !
You can get it at Giant supermarket now! VERY GOOD ONE you know!!
Anyway, Thanks!! I like your BLOG lei!
Wiraone:
haha but that's accord.. accord i really love the current jap make.. msia should've imported it like spores do.. i'm talking bout those other civic models.. to the point: civic coupe.. :drool:
second…pic…..rims….are …too….bloody…..fugly…..
Howdy y'all, anyone knows whether we're gonna get the K20Z3 200bhp on our 2.0 litre 06 civic?
hmm.
nice design
but i love the new mitsubishi eclipse.
any sort of information that it will be introduced in malaysia?
Oh BTW Paul, Honda doesn't sell Civic Saloon version in Europe only the hatchback.. at least I have not seen any new Civic Saloon on the road since 2002. If anyone interested to see the new Civic hatchback available for European market .. here it is:
http://www.motorcities.com/photo/view/05H11181713…
nope the Civic sedan is not on sale in the UK.. Focus also.. Europeans love hatches more than anything, thats why there are tonnes of those cars available there.
the 197bhp 2.0 litre K20Z3 will only be available in the Civic Coupe Si. at least at the launch. the sedan will get the 140bhp 1.8 i-VTEC, according to honda this engine is sufficiently powerful enough. they claim the performance of the their past generation 2.0 litre engine while fuel consumption and emission levels are comparable to 1.6 engines.
I like Mitsubishi Eclipse too, its looks like Concepts sports car, but already Mass-pro. Amazing Works!! Congratulation to Mitsubishi Designer!
I knew this car was selling cheap at The USA, Only around RM90k will get the full spec version with 650-watt (max.) Rockford Fosgate audio system, MIVEC V6,..more info. –> http://www.mitsubishicars.com/06eclipse/ ………But to sale it in Malaysia I think maybe No hope lah!
Why???
1) It is only in LHD. No RHD version yet.
2) No news said It will launch in Japan soon.
3) In Malaysia, Tax plus AP kings Under table,…..+++++++++Finally selling price is RM300K+++++ Better buy MB C-class or A-class or BMW lah more value for money.
I think we can only drive ECLIPSE at NIGHT time. WHY??? Dreaming Time only!!!
Go to buy a BIGGER PILLOW, must buy a better one maybe we can drive it soon lah!! To Sadd ………Bro aR!!
Krug,
JDM stands for Japanese Domestic Market
ya lah i also fan of civic once i saw it back few years ago,old one new one all so nice souped man
