It was a Singapore car, imported from Japan by Singapore official honda distributor. Made in Japan had superb quality build. The car interiors such as dashboard, leather... still looks like 90% new even after 10 years. Aircon's seal around car body still new and aircon was superb cool at level 2. I was surprised that I could find such a rarity 10 years old second hand car in good condition. I hope the car can work for another 10 years with proper maintenance.
That explains it. There are a few members on here with imports, but not many.
It sounds like it's been looked after. I have no doubt that you would get another ten years out of it. As culzean says, the drive train is bomb proof with proper servicing and will last the car out. The only thing I have seen with imports is the lack of underbody rust protection, but that can be easily dealt with, if it hasn't already - a small investment in Waxoyl, or better still Dinitrol underbody & cavity wax will see to that.
Ours is our first Honda, and even on my Chinese built Jazz, the build quality is excellent. It was only purchased as a cheap stop gap, but the other half loves it and it now has over 150,000 miles on it - but you would never guess, they are so well made.
