ive been using the 2003 for the last 5 years. and i can say this. no more city for me as:
1. my family size gettin' bigger
2. mpv would be my likely preference now
3. no matter how much it cost, honda city is an entry level car for HM, and there are a lot of of other choices like sx4 and elantra that are underrated
4. the engine unit is a step backward approach taken. CVT use in my city is leaps and bounds better.

good luck on your decision
