Added on December 15, 2008, 7:47 pmSteve, if you notice the materials for the seat and door upholstery, they are different between the 2 specs
Although both are Black but E spec materials looks better.

This post has been edited by W.ROOK: Dec 18 2008, 09:51 AM

CONFIRMED!

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.

Wow so many pages already! Couldn't join the exictment cause very busy with work and even Saturdays also
have to work. Closing account so there is alot of catch up to do.


Looks like many ppl don't like the New City after test drive huh? I will reserve my comment until I test drive the car.

But as Sysh said it is impossible to build a perfect car that can satisfy everyone.
Cars build for mass market and if you want that can satisy in all aspects than you have to build your own.

Two common complaints:

1: Lots of Plastics in the cabin
Minor issue for me.

2: Lacks Power compare to vios.
Some genuine comments from those who have tested both, I guess.


Anything else? If only these two issue than I think we got a winner here!

Interesting, many says that Vios is more powerful than City.
When I had my test drive with Vios (right after launching in 07), The car was struggling and the pick up was
quite poor. Than after 6 months I had my 2nd test drive with the same car again and this time around the sound that came when cornering has been rectified and the pick up was much better. And the last time, when I test again, things look more smother but I am not that all excited about the car.

Now on the test drive with New City. Initially I too thought it was under power but when I got used a bit with its accelerator and man how wrong I was. First a gentle drive (notice the fuel indicator shows 17km/L) than a bit more
Of me (fuel indicator shows about 15km/l) than comes the mad driver within me ………… (fuel indicator at 12km/l)
I did the zigzag, hard braking, hill climbing, and drive thru potholes and crossing a railway track without slowing down.
After doing all this, what can I say? It is not a brilliant car but quite a good car! Between Vios and City, City anytime!!!

If both Vios and City challenge at a traffic light I think Vios will zoom ahead of City for maybe 400-500meter and than
comes the ivetc power whereby city will overtake with an ease.

I think many went to test drive the new City with high expectation cause on paper it emphasize the extra horsepower, forgetting
it is still a 1.5cc car and it will never perform like a Ferrari. Having said that the power that the new city has is more
than sufficient and if you start using the pedal shift than you will know what I mean.
I could be very wrong on this but when I really floored the pedal I think I manage to go below 10s for 100km/h!


Exterior.
Vios is not all that bad also. From certain angle the car look good but overall it sucks especially the black ones.

Exterior wise for the New City, no question! Superb!

What about the doors? Hey closing all four doors for city produced similar sound but I think Vios doors gives a better
thumping sound.
Talking about the booth. City’s booth is humongous but Vios is smaller and pretty shallow.


Interior,
Hiya!, for a car close to 90K it should have not be like this but Vios also did not perform well in this area too.
I mean the plastics around. The one really disgusting are the Aircond knobs, it really looks cheap but when I used
It is not that bad after all. The one really sucks big time is the gear knob. I drove the E spec and I did not see any leather wrapping around it. It is a joke.

Otherwise I like the seats and its fabrics. Parking was ease, blind spots around the car was minimal and pretty comfortable too.

At the end of my drive, I felt I was not wrong at all by choosing this car than the vios instead.
Although a few good things are missing like the auto lock, remote trunk release and printed antenna but I can take it.
You gain some,and you loose some.

This is my sincere 2cents worth comment.

PMM is not a boring colour. The boring colour is what you see in the showroom. Try to bake under the sun and view it again. It'll be another colour. Then at night, try to see it again. What I can say is it's a multiple tones.

PMM is a multiple tones??? Cool!!~~~ I'll go for PMM then.
But... Is PMM easy to maintain?? Coz i'll only be washing my car once a week. Lol!!~

I am going for silver, cause like what you said easy maintenance. I am not the one who enjoys washing car and also do not enjoys giving out
money for others to wash my car. for the record i wash my wira probably 3-4 times a year!

Added on December 27, 2008, 8:03 pmJust to add a few more things,

Check out, There is rectangle shape plastic attach to the floor right beside the brake and they call that "Foot Rest" ..Pathetic ....
HM please improve on that lar or at least raise the level a bit.

And when I was going slightly above 105km/hr, I heard the engine roaring or more correctly "noising" ....now which one is that?

Added on December 28, 2008, 9:09 amI really got no idea on this tinting stuffs and I have not fixed in any of my previous cars too. My SA is offering
B-kool (not v) at around RM980 and it's a special price for me and he said for others it's 1200.
Any idea ...?

Not Bashing stuff rite

Point 3- That's not true.

Point 4- Did you test drive the car? and also have you tried Vios as well?

Point 5- Have you tried to knock a Toyota Harrier body before? Don't go far, try MyVi or even Kelisa as well.

Pls do give feedback , TQ
