about 70K plus or was it 80k plus sales (sry couldnt remember) was contributed by the previous generation of vios (year 2003). i must say its really impressive that the current vios can sell more than 30,000 when the car only launched like last year october.

Since its from Senior SA, probably can take his words for it, rite. btw, isnt it the sparkle grey looks a bit bluish compared to the polished metal which looks grey? so the grey we saw on autocar this month is which color? |

hmm i doubt the list because each SA has their own listing and there are so many SA out there too. last time i was told i was at 5th under him and there are already total 25 ppl booked with that particular dealer. so that made me 26th i suppose. how true is that...but he promised me i'll definitely be getting it b4 CNY.

my first choice would be the night hawk black pearl which looks more 'metal'. but instead they offer the crystal black pearl, to me it looks too black like the snooker 8 ball, that i can hardly really see the lines of curves of the car.
so i thought maybe go for polished metal metallic, again they dont have it here. so in the end sparkle grey would be my next choice then. |

QUOTE(andyjyneo @ Nov 23 2008, 08:11 PM) Then you can set Malaysia Book of Records already. The first one to pening and TMNT style accident because of aerodynamic lari. that just give me an idea! maybe i should start doing it now with my current ride, hopefully can survive it and get my name in Malaysia Book of Records, sure will get some extra cash out of it (and insurance too), to pay for the extra cost of the new city. extremist hardcore city fan lol.Haha, when I bought my Honda that time, my SA said this colour don't have, that colour don't have. Made me frown, but he said got one new colour - Polished Metal Metallic. No need to think already. Sure nice one. QUOTE(vitocit @ Nov 23 2008, 08:21 PM) Ya, i think i heard it wrongly earlier when my SA telling me over the phone on those 5 colours but i still get 4 colours correct. I mixed out polished metal (pm) and sparkle grey (sg). Just checked how r the actual colour of pm and sg looks like, actually still prefer sg compare to pm (if can choose) coz it looks darker on sg. Both colours are grey, sg is darker n got dark blue ingredient inside whereas pm seems lighter a bit n greenish on certain angle. Those who wanted to know how exactly pm colour on new city can refer to autocar magazine. i pray and hope that its really really really wont be more than 90K. its not really i couldnt afford another 5k, its just the conscious of paying too much for it that would make me feel like being ripped. unless i get myself a sponsor....hmm i just remembered my boss's dirty little secret hehehe.The senior SA that i mentioned earlier still saying that the price shown in the "new city excitement" catalogue are not confirmed yet, honda will priced it at the most 90k or lower for premium spec, this is what he told me today, he still said wait n see on 18th Dec. ok decided, polished metal metallic for me then! |

the only crucial part i guess would be the paddle shifter. the rest i think most can live comfortably without it, if they comes in black interior for both.

QUOTE(DinKnight @ Nov 27 2008, 11:51 PM) I have a friend beating herself up as she thinks she cannot afford the new City, and may well instead go for the Vios which already has clear cut pricing and quick delivery timelines. I'm still telling her to go for the new City. But only if The Price Is Right. So the baseline new City had better not be more than 85k or else HM will rugi one potential customer. last i heard, the first batch which arrives b4 chinese new year is already fully booked. the next batch according to my SA will be arriving on march, that is if book...say, 2-3 weeks ago. might still have chance, check out in the nearest dealer ard ur/her/his area. but one thing i do believe is if the price is not so desirable, in which might turns off many potential costumers, who knows, she or anyone else might get the car early (if can afford or willing to pay for the price tag) lol. but if price is good, i bet it is worth the wait.She is looking to buy latest by next February. If she books the S specs now, do you guys think the car can arrive before next year's CNY? |

why not 84k and 89k? not far from the current 79k and 86k. and this is not singapore to price it 10k away from their current ones. besides, its assemble in malaysia with mostly local components.
