ya, its quite big. i saw it going up to the millennium showroom, almost got scratch at the rear as its quite steep the road.

so now the unconfirmed facts is
1. the leather wrap gear knob
2. autolock
3. remote button for unlocking boot

Yea.. might get the trunk tray though (to avoid dirt or spillage).
RM200..sigh, so expensive. Wonder whether can get cheaper anywhere else.

Is it true that new City doesn't have auto lock when the car moves? What about auto unlock when you switch off the engine like the previous gen City? Can anyone who has test driven the car confirm this?
This auto lock and unlock feature is important.

I'll check both of that tomorrow.
1. Didn't feel much difference between both Specs, but I didn't check it in detail..will do so tml
2. When I test drive again tml, will check whether got auto-lock (imho, didn't think it have..didn't hear the door locking when I drove)

yea is it the same for both specs? i want to know too. oh and the remote button for unlocking boot you have mention just now. thanks

Is there a button to unlock the boot on the remote control key?
If there is no auto lock, then what about auto unlock when the engine is switched off?

OMG! So many posts since my last read. Anyway I got a last minute invitation to the launching event which was at Mandarin Oriental. Nothing much basically, the half cut car is on display which shows the internal features. All colors are available there. At the end got a goodies bag which consists of Honda Keychain with flashlight, Honda card holder and full set of Honda City brochure. Anyway the car looks really better than real life and the radio doesn't look that bad actually.

Okay. I'll check that too.
So I've got 3 things to check.
Will write it down on a paper so I don't forget. Anymore?

Yeah the Modulo brochure is also included. Full price list on Modulo stuff is on first page. The Illuminated Side Step costs RM600!

Doesn't seem to have a button to unlock the boot on the remote control key.
As seen in the link below (from Paultan.org)
Key

why waveblade key cannot be duplicated? anyway if you lose the key later the person know is your car very safe ah

There is nothing that cant be duplicated except DNA. Whether you got the right machine or not is another question.

Vibration sensor in a 90k car? I dont think so. Movement sensor? Most probably. Vios has this option from way back then. Lock myself in the car to sleep under the shade and suddenly alarm rang when I turn my body. LOL...

a goody bag! sweeeet....
haha i think thats all, thanks
yea, that is one of the items in my wanting list too..but rm600!? wooooot! if third party outside, might void the electric warranty...
hmm it looks the same like my parent's key to CRV. andyjyneo, any idea?

don't mean to critic this car.
but looking at it

exterior - the front look like a layered cake.
way too many layers...over size bumper.
Notice than most of the other carmakers are slowly having a same front identity - same front grill -- but Honda seems confused Civic is different from City. Accord, Stream, CRV, individual preference I guess..also they have more chances to facelift it 3 times b4 they produce a new model.

The behind of the car looks like someone smashed the lower part of the bumper. Curse of the big boot which reduces the overall wheelbase.

Once again, super high roof line =nissan latio?

on the looks from the side --> car looks like a truck super high ride, car just doesn't look stable bcos of the short wheelbase and long overhangs.
very high ride height - gap from tires to suspension seems like 4 x 4 .
wonder how bouncy the car will feel on uneven roads.

interior - same old soft plastics, gear stick looks like from an early 90's car --- > should have used the civic gear stick.
poor center fitting looks like taken from a half cut shop.

only thing nice is the meter cluster.
well at least better than the old city.

Just my opinion, don't mean to anger anyone .

cheers

I registered and got my fav number last week cost RM210 in JPJ. I passed the receipt of number plate registration to SA for registering my car. However we did talked about the OTR price but it seems RM50 is still charged. So i will make a guess that RM50 is for the physical number plate.
Anyone got different thoughts?


However, I applied MBB loan 80k with 2.8% for 7 yrs.

Guys, I read a lots in forums and mostly go with V-kool, Rike Cool and 3M's Crystal Line 70. I personally haven't see 3M's quality before but already committed to put 3M CR70 on my new City. Estimate cost is RM2000-RM2200. Heard the SA said price is going up on January unless book the current price with with some minimal downpayment wo~ Any advise on this? btw, I'll be taking the 1st batch as well and I'm taking Crystal Black. Though all friends advice not to take black, which personally I like PMM which present "class", however, This city looks more sporty for me and I've decided to get black.

i booked Polish Metal Metalic colour before launching, after saw the real car, who can tell me which one colour is more nice? confusing....

i like the black one... very striking.

get ecotint raybarriers with 98% IRR. i am personally using it myself and they work like magic
amuroray can get you good offer in the automotive garage section, the price will surely be below 2000

DNA can be duplicated by many ways... top of the list, PCR... generating exponential copies in seconds/minutes....

guys, have any of u notice that u can easily open the fuel lid by just pushing it from the outside? can anyone confirm that when the car is locked, the fuel lid won't open by pushing it?
