I just went to Honda showroom today for second time. When i ask about the difference of gear knob between E spec and S spec, he seems like don know. Can i know, according to the leaflet izzit E spec will come with leather in the gear knob?? But when i see in E spec it seems like same as S spec!!!
*
I tried to make a comparison between the gear knobs for E and S-Spec, but I don't see the difference. Should complain to them on misrepresentation..grrr!

i have test drive the new city. yes, e spec has leather gear knob. i have touch it and scratch it. i can feel the leather. but when i scratch the s spec gear knob, it make krack sound whic proves that e spec has leather gear knob while s spec has plastic gear knob. there is a different you know..maybe you have make a wrong judgement about that.

Oh really?
Maybe I'll take a look at it again this weekend for my own comfort. Was a bit dark when I went to the showroom and I just "looked" at it rather than "feel it". But I'll take your word for it. Thanks bro. :)

Andyjyneo will recommend you PMM, for sure..hehe!
My choices are PMM / Bold Biege and DLB

But at the end of the day, what do you like best?
Don't care about what other ppl think. It's going to be your car for a long time, so you've got to pick a color which you like and won't get bored. Good luck choosing. smile.gif

I think you can't go wrong with ASM and it's definitely the easiest to maintained (ie. less washing needed). Black would need a little TLC 'cos after a rain, there'll be a lot of dirt and mud smudges all around. But I haven't seen an ASM in real life so I can't picture how good (or bad) it'll look 'cos eventhough Silver is a Universal color, but some cars really don't look good in it.

How heavy are those Lenso Samurai rims?
I wouldn't mind a bit more for lighter rims (ie. RM2k just for 16" rims)

hehehe. i will change to new rim + tyres for my new city once i receive the car.


Added on December 25, 2008, 3:32 pm
should be around 5-6kg +-. 17" around 7.8kg if i not mistaken. the rims alone cost me rm1450. i read in Sport RIM talk, most of them talked about lenso samurai.
*
Wow.. so fast you wanna change ur 16" original rims ar. Gonna trade in and get the new ones? or sell to other ppl?
If compared the ori rims to the lenso ones.. big diff?

Tot quite sayang laa to change so fast the 16" original rims unless I can get a good deal with some light weight ones..
So I can complement with 205/55 tyres..

the new city still have Radio Antenna right? unlike Vios Printed Antenna?

i dun understand "There are also additional air conditioner ports on the rear seat floor. Yet another class-surpassing feature." from the HM site, i dun really looks on very details when i went to the showroom biggrin.gif
*
Yup.
Small tiny antenna at the back of the roof. Think perhaps cost cutting measures. opportunity cost.

The air conditioner ports on the rear seat floor, I have not scrutinise that yet. But beware those ppl with smelly feet. rclxub.gif

yup, i travel from selangor to pahang a lot. need lighter rim and bigger tyres. besides, new city rims, not my taste lor. i trade in to get the lenso. of course lenso samurai has different with new city rim.

Yea.. those rims are sick. Will look totally wicked on the car. wub.gif
I guess for me I'll stick to the original 16" till I save enough for light weight Jap rims.

From your avatar, you live in Klang?
Where do you source your tyres? I usually go to the one along Jalan Kapar (if I'm not mistaken)
Not sure whether that's the best place to buy. Was recommended that place though..

I love both colors so so so much. More suggestions plz... Thanks!!~~  icon_question.gif

It's hard to suggest to you unless you let us know what are your preferences
eg.
a) easy to maintain
b) more stylish
c) fresher look
d) uniqueness
e) elegant
g) etc

'Cos everybody here has their own individual taste. I like certain colors, but that's just me. nod.gif

Then you need a Modulo bodykit..hehe! (Fierce)
Well.. IMHO, the Bold Biege Metallic brings out the stylishness and elegance of the car very well.
a) it has the gold look (and ppl might mistake it as a Civic) which is fresh (Elegance)
b) there is a nice contrast between the Bold Biege and the Grey front grill (Stylish)
c) since most ppl either choose PMM or Black, Bold Biege will be quite unique (Unique)

I sound like a sales man. Just take a look if you don't believe me

Wrong. G-Spec and S-Spec comes with 2 air bags (i.e. Driver and Front Passenger). 1.5E has 1 air bag (i.e. Driver) while 1.5J has 0 air bags. Don't believe everything you read in blogs, check out Toyota's own website.

Don't worry about it, bro. A City will always remain a City.
I've been using a Protong for a few years already, so to be able drive a Honda now is a plus (except have to wait 3 months rclxub.gif )

hi wackyflik, can share more any diff for 205/50 tyre and 185/55. sorry im not in this field, so need to study more. mind to share?
*
For example the tyres I'm using... 205/55/R16 91V

205 = nominal width in mm (the width, or lebar)
55 = nominal aspect ratio (i.e. ratio of the tyre's height to its width). 55 means the height of the tyre sidewall (rubber to rim) in respect of the width. So in this case 55%
R = Radial
16 = The diameter of the rim, in this case 16"
91 = Tyre load index
V = Maximum permissible speed.

In essence, 205/55 tyres are broader than the 185/55 tyres. If all else are equal, there would be more rubber gripping the road with the 205/55 as oppose to the 185/55 which might affect (not much) your FC.

Source is from newspaper but couldn't find it. If someone could paste source(s) here, will be much appreciated.  biggrin.gif  notworthy.gif

Wow. If that is true, then that's good news. As long as we can get it before 31 March. RM625 into our pockets, can cover 2 months petrol bill laugh.gif

Clever. In that case, better opt for MUGEN since both are the same price. Hehe...

Nobody can tell anyway.
Just make sure you don't get those capalang type which is super cheap. You'll regret later
And also to make it more real, can always paste the Mugen or Modulo logo. Nobody will know

Not sure this is important though. If those who is interested in 3M tint and how it look on the City, pop down to Damansara showroom. The City there is fitted with 3M Crystalline 70. Looks great!

hey mike. haven't seen you in awhile icon_rolleyes.gif
What's the difference between the 3M and VKool? Well..at least for appearance wise? Color, Tint-color

What is is anti-crash tint?
Not familiar with this?
How much in terms of cash voucher can your SA give?
IMHO, a cash rebate is better so you are free to source what ever tint that you want.
Unless he is giving you a good offer

anti-crash is a tinted whereby they use a different tint paper to your glass.... and the glass will be very durable when comes to hitting. means if somebody want to rob or steal thing..... they wont easily break your window.
i am very keen in this tint as i kena break by robber before, that time using V-Kool, the robber only hits 2 - 3times, the window totally breaks.
so anti-crash can stand up to 20times hard hitting.
*
Oh.. security / safety film. Now I get it. It is good to invest in one nod.gif
But referring to my post previously, see what the SA is offering you..are the discounts good or not?
Cos usually he will give you like a discount, but then the tinting (total price) might be inflated (i.e. jack up the price).
That's why I prefer a cash discount on the car, so I can freely go to other shops to shop around for tints with the
best price..
