I'm getting my car sometimes in January. I've book the car few days ago before the official launch. Launched price is lower than my expectation which is good. Can't wait to get my hand on the wheel

As expected. Now the hottest Honda colours are Nighthawk Black and Polished Metal Metallic.
Long live Polished Metal Metallic.

i think this is the current set up for Honda. Both Civic 1.8 or 2.0 also same.. there is a lock switch at the power window switch. Need to lock and unlock manually..


Similiar to 1.8 and 2.0 Civic


If I remember correctly its for the physical plate. I asked for custom made so to speak, supposingly need to pay my SA additional RM 80. But end of the day, he said..never mind..

Check with your SA see how this apply to.. If needed verify with other source from Bros here with info from different SA.

went to showroom juz now, cant able to test drive as too many waiting test driver. erm... basically i would say big congrats to HM. really impressive this gen of city. the door closing is solid. seat and cushion is comfortable enough. the price is making alot of us happy either i guess. black color is really nice looking. but 1 thing i wonder is the modulo kit cost Rm 4.7k, but without the front grile like singapore or thailand has. modulo kit for malaysia only got the optimus prime grile. besides, the modulo RIM have to add few thousand to get. so if E spec + modulo kit + modulo RIM = RM 98k++ then plus v-kool = RM 100k. WOW!

btw, the modulo kit this time is really fit to the city. black, silver and polished metal are really great. deep lapis blue is gorgeous too.
after go to see the real honda city... i suddenly think that toyota vios is really too simple and low end compare to this fully loaded new machine.

Added on December 18, 2008, 11:10 pmactually i expect more from honda regarding the interior, instead of the silver coating dashboard, i would rather prefer honda improve it. and the meter is too simple and normal with red color, i would rather prefer is white...

My new CR-V have this switch also, but when I accelerate, it locks. When I shift to P, it automatically unlocks.
I don't need to unlock and lock myself.

I am really not sure about the auto lock lah...I ask the SA..he also not confirm to me what happen to the lock....very dump....have to go test drive one more time at other show room...

Shit. so busy with work...

Reach S Room at around 8.30pm and there was a big crowd and I think some of them were there for free food!

Guys notice or not, there is a vibration sensor near the roof lamp.

Yup, there are 2 sensors facing to the left and right...

what is vibration sensor ?
and what is wave blade keys?
thanks

It's not vibration sensor. It's alarm sensor to be exact.

Please go to the following websites for more detailed reviews of the new Honda City. I have just read the reviews.

Honda The Power Of Dreams

Just went to show room evening... Saw the city... damn nice with the price...
nvr notice the price will set it at 90k for E spec.... this will relly make new city selling like hot cake... Long live for Honda....

I know what you meant. It detects unauthorised motion in the car when alarm is activated.

to be exact, its called ultrasonic sensor. yea for security purposes.

1. Vibration sensor senses vibrations inside the car when a car thief attempts to break. It activates the alarm and immobiliser making the car cannot start at all.
2. Waveblade key cannot be duplicated at your neighbourhood key shop thus making it safe even though you lose the key.

lol

Wokay.. decided on the E-Spec! tomorrow want to test drive again. Didn't notice, but does the key have a boot release mechanism? ie. just press the button and release? Modulo kit is overpriced.. the rear under-spoiler is quite ugly tho, imho.

Modulo kits are always overpriced.
Imagine, just a piece of stupid spoiler, door visors and 1 pair of side step on my CR-V costs me RM5k.
Damn it.

Correction:
No.2 should read Waveblade key cannot be duplicated. Ha ha.
