As per title. This will be my first car and can't decide.. Plus points (not listed in order)

Honda City V:
+ More tried and tested
+ Probably lower maintenance cost
+ Android Auto and Apple Car Play
+ Spacious interior and boot
+ Paddle shifters
+ Higher resale value
+ Cheaper than X50 Flagship almost RM20k

X50 Flagship:
+ Latest ADAS technology, almost self driving, complete safety suite (360 camera, front sensor)
+ Pretty full-digital instrument cluster
+ Powerful engine and transmission, better power-weight ratio (177bhp to 1.3ton)
+ Newer model to Malaysia (less boring than 5th gen City)
+ Prettier exterior and interior (IMO)
+ Electronic park brake

What do you think? Please discuss and very much appreciated.

Also considered but not keen: Vios, Almera, Civic (outside budget)

topup cikit for sunkist oren

Honda city RS hybrid je la.

Saves your money no need to refuel too frequently.

Hybrid > all
Honda > all

What is sunkist oren?

New city rs com9lan7fam 110k you all want 253 Nm?you gonna pay

X50 value for money
Like /k always say "worth it"

Today saw new city, front like civic already.

top up sikit get 3 selies sunkist oren

my advice, go test drive all and decide yourself. dont listen to keyboard warrior online.

for me i prefer mazda 2
coz if u touch up the rim n bodykit
more hngghhhh than city rs

Get vios better

Thanks.. Went to see both in showroom already but didn't get to test drive.. Now test drive also need to do booking and queue for days.. *facepalm*

This is the best. After all its not the netizens who's gonna pay for your car

it kinda depends on your priority, for me, im looking more into maintenance cost and NVH/comfort, x50 itself is value for money but the replacement costs for that 18 inch tyre and quicker maintenance due to turbo is a turn off for me

city is great in that aspect but jury is still out on nvh and ride, previous gen was quite bad

Seems many people are voting RS Hybrid.. may I know why? Many saying resale value is a concern and maintenance cost if electrical components break down is high.

I like the torque but I am worried about highway performance.. 98hp engine doesn't inspire a lot of confidence

X50 wind noise like a Boeing plane, if you don’t mind.

then get the current vios if can't wait. if not wait for the next vios.

haha! ironically im looking into vios/yaris the most now, but i'll never forgive myself if i drive the current vios/yaris design, to me its unacceptable. nevermind, i will wait for the facelift which is rumoured to come in december hehe

As a honda owner myself, i dun recommend u to own honda. Full of shit and qc problems.

Just submitted my documents to Honda SA for City V Spec Grey
