Yah, my current car leather seat gets damn hot under the sun. My sister's car using fabric seats feels much cooler..

Anyway, a few question

1 - Tint - Darkest colour allowed by jpj, good quality, good brand, best price.
2 - Bodykit - Differences between original from honda and outside.

I am getting my Modern steel V spec middle of this month.
*
1. Visible Light Transmitted (VLT) min 50% for sides and 70% for front (back I'm not sure)
2. Why not wait for Mugen bodykit? Go see Paul Tan blog... drool.gif

yes I do. But meh, I just prefer it. Compared to fabric seats. No idea man, matter of personal preference I guess.

even i do not prefer leather seat (none of my previous car installed with leather seat), but it is very good "protection" from your kids if they eat or drink in the car.

do u know that previous generation 5-speed auto City even though fabric seats, water/liquid cannot go in? My colleague found it out the funny way, her daughter kencing on the seat, those kencing "floating" on the seats laugh.gif

I am taking llumar solar tint at JB ....non security...
cost me Rm1k + abit....
but it depends on personal, cause i don't think is useful...cause if ppl wan to break ur windows, few more hit also will be breaked.
security film visibility not as good as solar film as their thickness is thicker, for some degrees for sure u will see some blurring on the windows.
thats why nobody tint security on windscreen as well.
*
at least it won't break on 1-2 hits lor, u got chance to run

plus, I always go out on late nights icon_question.gif

brows.gif  brows.gif  Depends on your need....
and to me i wan dark tint la...cause colour of tint definitefly will fade until certain level(Any Brand also will fade)...
So I can tint another layer solar tint when colour faded, becomes security film already  tongue.gif

Security film most normal is 4mil, and there are 6mil 8 mil and more...
Some car windows will stuck when using 8Mil, depends the design of the car.

I know that, that's why I took 4m one

CVT gear box whining and has mild pulling effect when I release the pedal. Is this Normal?

This is the first time I'm using CVT. Comparing to the 4-speed auto, this CVT is decelerating quicker. It feels like the car is changing gear in quick succession when I release the pedal.
*
If u are used to normal AT tranny, CVT will get some time to get used to. Bcos of the smooth switch (or lack of it), the car is actually faster than u feel it is. smile.gif

By the way, anyone have surveyed alternative tyre sizes/brands?

Still thinking 195/55/15 vs 185/55/16 vs 195/50/16 rclxub.gif
195/55/15 many brands got, but 16" 185 and 195 tyres are quite rare doh.gif

No way shakehead.gif

1. Cost of rim and tyres
2. I'm more performance-oriented than "bling-bling"-oriented

With 195/50/15 Michelin Pilot Sport 3 on my current Myvi I've been smoking 99% of the cars I see going down Genting icon_rolleyes.gif

But if u fit 195/50/15 on our City, the speedo will lari quite a lot, 195/55/15 is more suitable

later I will go tyre shop help my boss pay for his Merc tyres, take this chance survey survey sikit brows.gif

Not just you. I used to think i was the king of the road  and smoked all other cars when driving on lebuhraya timur barat in my previous idsi  city. But with this new city, to run away from a grand livina also very difficult. Get smoked by 1st gen vios easily and never  able to catch him up some more.. haih.. unsure.gif

Shit. Cancel order, buy FD2 liao shakehead.gif

I used to enjoy driving 2006 VTEC CVT City a lot, great balance between power and fuel economy.

Maybank Islamic 7 years loan at 2.68%

Expecting delivery by the end of this week rclxm9.gif

KL peeps should try Peringgit Sri Motor@Old Klang Road, their stocks quite fast...today saw a truckload of Citys unloaded. icon_idea.gif

Still undecided on wheels...195/55/15 or 195/50/15 easier to find, and my fav Michelin got, but if go for 195/50/16, only got Continental doh.gif
