the side mirrors don't auto fold on car lock... even the previous accord didn't have this feature if i am not wrong...

the buzzer sound is a mystery... not sure why they came to this decision to have lights blinking as the indicator instead of sound... but, it's no longer the cobra alarm they previously used... but, it's no deal killer...
EPS is speed sensitive... it is lighter and less sensitive on slow speeds to help with parking and stuff... and it will load up as speed increases...although it will never be as heavy as some cars...
i doubt it can do 570 even.... it depends on how and where you drive the car...

the range cannot be trusted when you first reset it after a pump.. you need to drive it a while as it's calculated based on your KM/L if i am not wrong...

not an option... warranty issues...
i do 10k in my current car.. estimate the mileage remains the same...it's not cheap for me as well especially comparing the cost of my current car against it...

but, she should do what she think is worth it... if she feels nicer driving in a better car albeit short distances.. it might still have a chance of worth to her... if she thinks of it as a mode of transport and it is strangling her financially... better of getting something less expensive and still sensible like a myvi and live with it...

that's what i think of the situation... but, frankly to say... 75k ain't too far from a full spec 1.5SE myvi which is 56k + the higher interest rates... the question of money is as always cannot be avoided... it's just whether if she can see it as a worthy purchase over time...
there is no 10k service for jazz... there is fully synthetic option.. but also same 5k interval...

the jazz hybrid is still having a 10k discount on all branches... but car has to be registered before 31st december 2013 and they are currently lacking of stock as far as i know... the wait list is actually lined up until mid jan already... so, you need to hunt a dealership that can give it to you sooner...

price wise for the hybrid... it's 90k - 10k discount - 3.5k (if i am not wrong service labour charges over the duration of 3 years) meaning the car + ownership cost is about 76~77k over the first 3 years

while the ckd petrol is 75k with no discounts and a 3.5k service labour charges over the first 3 years to retain the warranty... which comes to about 78~79k car + ownership cost over the first 3 years..

the only major difference is the lacking of 4 disc on hybrid (cosmetic thing) and a different center console and chrome grills....

reliability wise.. it's anyone's guess.. i doubt the car will fail... but the battery lifespan is more or less a worry... but, as it is an assist motor rather than a full EV capable one like the prius... the utilization of the battery is lower compared to prius which should mean the battery can retain charge for a longer period of years... hence, honda giving it 8 years warranty if i'm not wrong...

fuel saving wise, some people says it helps, some says it doesn't....i think it depends on how you drive...

Best if you could test drive both. Unfortunately, jazz petrol no test drive unit. I booked my wife's car with faith that it's a good drive. So far, am not wrong. Didn't test drive jazz hybrid coz like I mentioned before, few things turned me off:
1. Air con off while stuck in jam
2. No rear disc brake
3. Hybrid cars seems to depreciate more. Look at insight. It's now rm70k plus. My friend bought 1 unit last year and disposed of it recently. Lost of rm20k in 1 year.

Anyway, this is just my opinion.

Cheers!
