Just got back from the Old Klang Honda showroom - man were the SA's busy! No one even layan me!
Anyways - the they only had a lapis blue and silver S spec in the showroom. Overall the car looks great, although a bit smallish for my liking. I was quite taken aback by the overtly plastic-ky interior! There is not one soft-touch piece of plastic in this car, and this is where Honda's cost cutting is evident. The door panels on the S version was one large piece of forged plastic, and is missing the silver lining in the higher-spec E version. God forbid, but I believe the Vios has better plastics...
Even the dash molding is a large piece of hollow plastic. I can't really imagine the NVH to be to good, but can be fixed with some simple DIY soundproofing:)
The audio controls are OK at best, and lack the tactile feel of the Civic. The seats are pretty good, with good thigh support and some decent legroom at the back.
I will try to test drive it soon, and will post my honest opinion later:P

MAMMA MIA! 67 Pages alreadyyyyy!

Anyways, i just got back from Bsar Honda showroom, saw a black City, wow - it looks even better in real life!
I asked the SA if I could try the car stereo with my USB player, and guess what - the sound system was really good for a stock system. Had lots of bass and crisp, clear vocals. Looks like no need to spend on ICE:P
And the coolest part - I can navigate thru my song list thru the steering wheel buttons.

I woul definately great this car if I wasn't migrating next year..sad.gif
