He is an owner of the 2.0. In his stay in Japan, he dirve his company car which is also Civic. So he can comment and justify on his quote. I feel that due to NAP/ED the price already high, manufacturer had to make their cars sell with a acceptable price bracket and their final resort is to costdown on their material... this is where thier profit comes from...
