Ts vios j is a very very good simple fuss free car. Cheap to maintain, can go long distance without problems, seriously super fuel efficient for that category, great resale value. You might think its an empty can but once u sit inside , it is a diff story.

You see, human beings associate good looks with good performance and ugly looks with poor performance.

I wouldnt say the vios is ugly, take
A look at peugeot207 , now that is
Hideous.

Srsly TS for a no frills car, just take the vios
J auto. You wont regret.but i am sure u will regretifu take the hyped up forte or pug 207.

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....

its either ur dumb or your are another kiddo with a wife here.

You just said it,you TEST DROVE! How long could ur test drive be? Got 20 minutes anot? I have been driving it for 2 years! And i repeat CITY is good for speeding on highway! can reach 190km/h without any problems.No floating feeling at all.Tried it many times.And it has been proven ,Honda City is great on the highway,and not that great for City Driving cause of its hard suspension.Go read up Honda City forum noobie.You dont even drive a City,but you talk as though you have been driving it everyday.

So you thought you can bullshit me? Sorry to say,I know more than you think!

I did 140km/h in a Forte and it felt like it was going to tear apart!

Yes City lacks power from standstill ,but once you pass 70km/h mark,its just flies.Obviously u are the one who knows nothing about cars since you say Forte 1.6 is ABIT lack of power.

Forte 1.6 is SO damn freaking underpower from standstill and even high speed.Pls lah,dont try to bullshit me.I drive more KMs than you in a week than you do in a month.

Its so obvious that you know nuts about cars when you said Honda City is not good for speeding.Honda is known for its power at high revs and top speeds.Dont know? Go read up lah noob.

Forte 1.6 struggles through all the rev bands.And yes ,your wife truly knows nothing bout cars.And you as a "EXPERT" can trust her opinion! Hahaha,what a joke! doh.gif

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

Another fella who know nuts about cars.

RM 60 with Vios can last 1 week and RM 70 for Honda City can last 5-6 days?


Pls lah,nobody uses TIME as a gauge of how good the FC is.If like that i fill up my CITY on Monday and i drive the car only once a week .Like that can last 4 weeks izzit?

Use ur common sense lah,pls calculate how many KMs the car can travel,not how many days the petrol can last.

And everybody travel diff distance everyday,so for some, 1 day can travel 100km

For others 1 day travel 20km .

And i repeat,yes city acceleration is slow,but above 70km/h it will pawn ur silly Forte anytime.Forte fuel consumption sucks big time at high speed.And engine is so damn noisy.

Even at 150km/h,the engine sounds like its gonna die.

So dont come bullcrap me with ur fake knowledge.
