- If it's the same Concerto as they sell in Aust, it is a 4-door lift-back
- based on the Civic platform, but with an emphasis on luxury. It's been
- around for a while now ('88 or '89), and will be replaced in the next year.
- Price is just above that of the Civic range. Engine is a fuel-injected
- version of the 1.6L Civic engine. It has not sold well here. Road tests
- have generally labelled the Concerto competent, but boring.
