We’ve started a new thing here at Top Gear Philippines: We’re featuring some of the coolest individuals with the coolest rides around the local car community in our new segment Cars We Love.
For our first episode, we took a drive with popular content creator Alex Lim—or whom many of you may know as BanaweBoy—in his absolutely gorgeous five-door Honda Civic, or what’s called the Orthia in other markets.

Alex’s Orthia is a thing of beauty, and it’s fully loaded, too. It’s what you’d call busog in Filipino speak. It’s got a pristine, almost mustard yellow-like finish, custom Recaro seats, and a clean stock dash. Alex also went through the extra mile sourcing the correct parts, including the tonneau cover in the trunk.
It’s got a stock engine under the hood, Advan RG wheels with low-profile tires underneath, an angry exhaust, and a neat little secret tucked away perfectly at the rear: air suspension.
We have a full gallery to share with you, so scroll on further if you want to see more of Alex’s Orthia. Click play on the video above to watch the full clip if you haven’t yet as well. Enjoy, folks!
