Hello all you new Honda City fans out there,
My SA just called me and informed me that the new City will be available for viewing at the showroom next Monday (15th December)! This is 3 days before the official launch on 18th December. I am invited to view and possibly test drive the car next Monday, just two days from today. I think I will be able to know the exact OTR price for 1.5S and 1.5E next Monday. Of course I will get the brochure and price list. I am really excited now!. I will post a long commentary about the new City next Monday night after I come back from viewing and test driving the car. For your information, the Honda 3S dealership is located at Butterworth, Penang. Looks like Honda fans in Penang will be able to view and test drive the new City first. Possibly, I will be among the first in Malaysia to see, touch and test drive the new City. The excitement is building up! Cheers!  rclxms.gif

Honda colours are hard to recognise nowadays. I had a hard time to differentiate Polished Metal Metallic and Sparkle Grey under the hot sun and from afar. It looks similar colour, seriously.

Sorry, the under back is Blue. Hehe... Now, I looked clearly and found out that it's Blue.
yea, P.M.M is really an unique color, they're like sparkle grey in the day and nighhawk black in the night. ya from the trailer its hard to see but nevertheless they are all beautiful colors. i can take any one at anytime lol. my first choice will be either P.M.M or black, but im still open to the other colors as they are also nice.

QUOTE(Steven2916 @ Dec 12 2008, 10:23 PM)
Guys, can you confirm the price for S spec is RM84,000 OTR and E spec RM89,000 OTR? I think Toyota is shaking now especially after 18th December, many wannabe Vios buyers may cancel their bookings and go for the new City after they see how nice the CIty is.  New Honda City - Sleek, Sporty, Stylish, Stunning
if u ask me, i'll say its 84k and 85k+ OTR for spec S; 89k and 91k+ OTR for spec E.

i ady made a booking deposit for honda city , just wait until loan approval , still in the middle of choosing current honda city / new model since the price still not confirm yet .. huhu .
hmm but if the new city is launched, will you still be able to get the current city from honda malaysia?

QUOTE(Mr Cola @ Dec 13 2008, 01:56 PM)
Oh. Contract or permanent will change their decision or not? Cuz i'm contract staff. Scared they don't approve.
actually if ur salary is more than 1.5k, and can provide bank a photocopy of 3 months pay slips, i dont think it would be a problem, regardless contract or none contract basis. just need to consult with them what other documents they need thats all. good luck wink.gif

soory...later in the evening I will repost the pics again but there is no difference compared to the Thai version.

As for the lower spec I notice the interior is in Black.

The one I saw was a Black and a Blue. Black look cool but not the blue.
Also noticed that the audio player for both specs are the same (car was locked so just saw from outside)

And also there is no side protective bar for both specs.
hey good news for the black interior for the spec S! at least we're not restricted to buy with beige interior if have tight budget.

mmm yea, both will have the same center console player and most probably comes with CD player, not sure about the aux for ipod though. hope they bring in option for the 2 dins too drool.gif

now that u mentioned, ya i noticed it too yday from the trailer photo, those cars dont seem to have side protective bars. maybe its available in modulo packages.

E spec 16 inch rim is in brownish colour and Tyre made by Goodyear. check out side folded mirror with turning lamp. S spec 15 inch rim-silver colour. check out the reverse sensor points- 4 points
looool i misread ur '16 inch rim is in brownish colour and Tyre' as Type R rim in brown color or something haha. hmm no matter how i look at it, i still think the 5 spoke rim looks better le. unless the Y spoke rim comes with thicker tires.

biggrin.gif we need people like you guys in current times, spend spend and spend ! after all thats our DPM intention tongue.gif
lol DPM is full of crap just like his name. so he wants us citizen to spend to save the economy, didnt see he do his part as finance minister to help and his kwsp plan is even bigger bull load opposite the size of his tiny brain good for ntg other than womanizing. maybe he can do us a favor by remove that silly tax on foreign cars, yea that might help.

QUOTE(Fjive @ Dec 13 2008, 10:38 PM)
so I guess the E-spec is very unlikely to be <90k...everyone's saying 92k  cry.gif
i suppose its 89k + insurance + tax + etc = 92K. if ur NCB is high maybe still within 90k - 91K gua.

guys, i think he meant the installment for city around rm500 to rm1000 per month.

QUOTE(Steven2916 @ Dec 13 2008, 11:16 PM)
Guess the S spec will cost about RM86,000 OTR. S spec is good enough for me.
New City beats the Vios inside out and upside down. Vios cannot beat new City at all, except maybe the price. New City is longer, higher, wider and more spacious than Vios, not to mention sleeker, sportier and more stylish. Honda The Power Of Dreams  nod.gif
ya, its actually ahead in almost everything especially in technology. thus, the price is okok lo for 86k and 92k. but ya, u got that rite, it beats vios inside outside upside down haha nod.gif

QUOTE(vexus @ Dec 13 2008, 11:20 PM)
In s'pore city price is over vios in all range. So don't expect much for city Malaysia.
i dono what is kah motor's (singapore honda) strategy, but our city is locally assembled. so they cant sell it the way like in singapore.

I agree, driving a Honda City is fairly cheap.

I drive a Honda City for the past 3 year and i can assure that the maintenance is less than RM180 for every 5000 KM service. With my Honda City, there was no problem to travel here and there, as i work as a pre-sales guy.

No regret buying the Honda until today, but the new Honda City i heard that it will a bit expensive!
rm180 for normal mineral oil rite, does it includes labor? ya its a good car, but i dont like the feather light steering wheel for the current city although its good for town driving.

DOnt know the Espect will come with the keyless system or not ?

becuase i saw singapore model the full spect want got keyless function
if u mean keyless entry i think most probably should have. if ur refering to keyless start button, thats a first haha. maybe they modded it in singapore? damn their acc there comes with many varieties, sooo cheap and affordable.

Asia vtec preview did state that the new City's steering wheel is still light.

Anyway I am in the midst of creating a new thread for 2009 City, stay tuned.  smile.gif
current city somehow gives the impression of gentle and being a family car that drives around town, that explains the light steering. but the new one portrait a little sportiness has a little bit more responsive and better handling too. autocar asean quoted it as its more 'crisp' to drive. anyway, waiting for the test drive to be available hehe.

haha sure, looking forward to it laugh.gif

Unlikely for the Msia spec.. for now. Maybe later, like the Vios J-Spec

Added on December 14, 2008, 2:24 am

Every few days will help for me. At least I can 'jump in' and tell my SA to swap my S-Spec to E-Spec
actually other than the price which is the main concern, and now that they do have black interior for both specs, so the only major different would be the paddle shifter. the rest of the acc u can get it from outside third party cheaply, of course mod it after when ur warranty expired laugh.gif
