is B segment bro..
how do you feel underpower? City have more HP than vios n almera..
if u feel not good enough, then u look for wrong car, wrong segment dy..
Maybe try C segment 1800cc to 2000cc, civic, altis, or maybe those 1500cc below with turbo such as VW, Peugeot, or Mazda sky active.

So far my E spec have no major issues. Probably my mileage is kinda low (~1000km) so I cannot comment at the moment. However I notice my window at the rear left is kinda slow to close and open. Maybe I will bring this up to the Honda SC during my next servicing. But I guess they are going to push the blame to my tint.

Actually for your budget, you can also take the new Mazda 2 into consideration if you don't mind small cabin and boot size.

Well, I am not that kind of gila-power person lah, just heard some people complaint the CVT engine is kinda underpowered only.
Most of the comparison I saw is with Vios, Almera, Cerato, and Polo sedan.
Seems like V variant is still on the win-side.

I choose City due to the 536L boot size , good for carrying much more items, and also CVT seems to provide better FC.

From your experience, how does ur City FC feels like?
For both city and highway drive.

Compare CVT with conventional automatic gearbox is already give 10% discount to the HP. Cut queue need to ready for more throttle before able to catch up the speed. But still better than Almera of course. But compare with Toyota Vios, still have some improvement. Overall, for B segment vehicle, is already consider good in terms of value for money and features.

Depends on how you drive this vehicle. Always stuck in traffic jam in normal City drive FC sure will drop significantly. If smoother drive will easily get 10~11km/l in City while 15~17km/l at Highway.

i would like you to try silicone spray on your windows sills, maybe dirt that hinders the rubber and window functioning, check any for obstacles in the rubber section too.

I see.. in that case you made the right choice coz Honda city has the biggest cabin and boot size for Japanese car under B segment. I also need a big boot size coz i always need to accompany my mother in law to buy alot of groceries from Tesco.

Yup, agree
The FC will drop significantly if driving in City/town with alot of traffic lights and speed bumps coz u always shifting to low gear. For me is around 9km/l ~10km/l in my town if i drive very lightfooted with eco mode. But in highway, the FC is really good (15~17km/l)
Just to add on, need to off the eco mode if require more throttle to overtake cars or cut queue

Thanks for the advice. Will try it out once i get my hands on my car.

Thanks for all the feedbacks !
Just went to another showroom for my FIRST test drive of the V variant.
I would say...As a driver, the feel was OK, but cornering seems so so only.
I asked the salesperson about Anti Roll Bar, he dunno about it.
And my mom sit at the rear passenger seat, she said the engine noise very loud, and noisy...
Do u guys experience the same too?

Power wise, econ mode really feel the underpower lah.

Any of u guys install Anti Roll bar into your city?

Jeffreynsx. I am still waiting for ur answer about ECU, you seems to know alot of things then Honda themselves. Answer and stop taichi the question.

*All information are well recorded.

Is RM300 a reasonable price to repaint the whole front engine bonnet?

http://bba-reman.com/forums/Topic116286.aspx - Explanation of How ECU and ESP works together.

If added various kinds of bars underneath your vehicle, will it affect your ABS, EBD or VSA? A common sense thinking will link all of this together and get the answer.

If still did not get the answer, can ask Honda Racing Team to check whether did they modified the ECU if added various kind of accessories underneath their vehicle.

Try to test drive Honda Civic 1.8 or 2.0 variant and compare yourself. I would say Honda Civic more fun to drive with all the features you required.

George Low, if I not wrong...you got posted a question about "Ada sesiapa pakai high low soft hard tak? Boleh share setting dan brand pls." Nice to see you on FB. Very smart move...

Why don't you explain instead of always asking ppl use "common sense". The link you posted also has nothing to do with bars.

You seem to know a lot about racing and ECU, how about you enlighten us about your vast knowledge in car electronics.

*Your information is nicely recorded.
