I agree with Ryland. Also, even if you have paddle shifters, I have heard that the control software in the car may override your choice. In this situation, you will be fighting with the car to stay in the top gear (I think this is what you are describing in the Civic). I would take a serious test drive where I try to keep it in top gear as much as possible.
From your description, it sound like the Altis will at least *stay* in the gear of your choice.
