Srsly honda maintaince is more exp than toyota .

Just did 100k service on my 2009 nhc, costs me rm 700.

If u want comfort, get the vios.can drive anywhere without problems. The city is good for
Speeding on highways. But try driving around housing area with all the humps , really suffer. Suspension hard as hell and the car is quite low
So u will always scrape the mudguard when crossing those high bumps.

Fc wise hard to achieve 450 per tank. Normally 400 km per tank. Vios is still champs in fc, you can thrash the car kau kau
And still get good fc while on the honda u start thrashing, then u cn say goodbye to good fc.

Conclusion, take any jap car, just avoid the forte. Sure after a while u realise that all the forte specs are not
Important at all. Whats more important is the engine and driving pleasure which the forte has failed miserably.

Dude. I seriously doubt you know anything about DRIVING PLEASURE, coming from a person who thinks MYVI=AWESOME RIDE.

I test drove Forte, City and VIOS. Can safely say Forte thrash both City and Dugong. City is good for speeding on highway??? Even my wife (woman who knows nothing about cars), complains it no power....There's a very good reason Honda calls it Honda City and not Honda Highway u know.... laugh.gif

Only problem with Forte 1.6 is a bit lack of power. The Forte 2.0 should not have this problem. FC wise, of course cannot match City or Dugong in city driving. But then again...you're paying 80k-90k for a B segment car just to save fuel instead of buying a C-segment car for the same price....

well said bro i drove both new city and new dugong before as both of my bro in law owns them.. and seriously j spec sux.... inside more worst than myvi its like those old saga inside all plastic.. even the player like pasar malam punya... TS skip j spec if u really wan a dugong take e or g trd is overprice... u can take g and mod it if u like trd stuff..
City i drove the e spec and i can say the interior is good looking but power is omg... i tekan tekan the rpm until 3.5-4k oni got response.. acceleration sux... fc wise vios is better with rm 60 ron95 per week while city is rm 70 ron95 every 5-6days...

For me i'll take forte for more comfort due to its a c segment car and the features it provide..
Overall
FC, Reliability - Vios
Reliability - City
Comfort, Features, Space - Forte

Resale value is nonsense u buy the car u like not about resale value cos if u like vios get it there is no point if u like forte but cos of resale value u regret...
Nobody knows whats the value of kia cars will be in the next 5-10years.. Kia and Hyundai are coming with very good cars and we shud see how toyota and honda handle them.. Optima K5 notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

KIA/Hyundai has overtook TOYOTA as no. 3 top selling car in US recently. The problem with KIA here is NAZA service sucks....
