Replying to: backy (Aug 04, 2008 6:36 am) I think it's going to be pure speculation as to what models will and will not have it. For certain all cars in the US will have stability control in 2012 as it will be mandatory.

Replying to: backy (Aug 05, 2008 8:23 am) Until Honda and other car manfacturers figure out that people want the added safety of stability control at all price points we'll just have to deal with it.  Wouldn't traction control help more than stability though....????

Replying to: backy (Aug 04, 2008 2:24 pm) I think most dealers don't get all that much info in advance. I think the magazines probably get it sooner in many cases. Why they keep details like seat height and stability control a secret until the last minute is beyond me. I guess it could prevent sales of older models. However there really aren't many 2008's left. The dealers are price gouging so much right now. I doubt VSA will be on the Civic LX but who knows on the EX. The High end Fit will have VSA as long as you get Nav with it.

Replying to: tiff_c (Aug 05, 2008 2:33 pm) In this case, I think Honda should have announced a long time ago that only the highest-end Civic trims would have VSA. Then the people who might be waiting for a Civic (not the EX-L or Hybrid or Si) with VSA might have said, "Oh, what the heck!" and gone ahead and bought a 2008 Civic.
