    ^ Tumpak!

    Oh by the way, spoke with my Honda agent yesterday and he said No discounts since this is a scheme often used by other dealers - give the buyers a discount, make them feel as if they had a "good deal". When in fact they just overpriced the SRP. Very tiangge style of selling. No offense to those who were able to get a discount

    I can get the following for free:

    - full 3M tint (including windshield)
    - rust proofing
    - parking sensor
    - driver's sun visor w/ mirror (it's not offered in the 1.3L variant, girls gotta have a mirror )

    Er... based on the specifications, the driver sunvisor with mirror is already included in the features of the Jazz 1.5L... it is not a dealer option.

    Basically the car agent is like selling to you something you already bought.

    But for the 1.3L (which she seems to be eyeing at) does not have the drivers side only the passenger side has it. The 1.5L does have both the driver and passenger... Kinda wierd given the price of the Jazz dapat meron na yan... Oh well mukang DIY na lang for Madam...

    Seems to be, she is limited by her budget thus in her case I am still a firm believer she gets the Yaris instead. But if she can find ways to get a 1.5L Jazz then that's good...

    At least you've got parking sensors. Forgot to ask that from my agent. Congrats!

    Hi all, as of TODAY, I have now shifted to only considering the City 1.5L and the Jazz 1.5L. I will just finance it and keep the rest of the money I've saved up for the rainy days. Sorry if you guys got confused already. I'm the epitome of why typhoons were named after women :D I've informed my Honda SA that I will just finance if I get the 1.5L variant. Price: City 1.5L - 811k Jazz 1.5L - 840k Their bank (RCBC) called me already to do a verification. So within the week we'll know if I will be approved or not. I hope I will, considering I will be making at least 60% down. If I don't get approved. Back to Jazz or City 1.L AT :D

    parang konti na lang civic na... hehe

    between the city and the jazz and considering na girl yung bibili... jazz na lang.

    dati we were left with the choice between the 1.3 jazz and city. mas ok for me yung city kasi sedan type pa rin. pero for my sister, mas gusto niya yung jazz.

    at that price range and considering na finance yung oto, ill take the civic na. 811k for the city? jazz at 840k? a civic is at 858k? konti na lang dagdag. hehe.

    ok lang naman yung 1.3 variant. thats what we have right now (city). if your not into speed, ok na rin yung 1.3. warning lang, we have the city s 1.3. it feels na cheap yung material na ginamit ng honda. same with the jazz, parang masyadong plastic yung feel ng interior. well yun lang naman napansin ko. scrutinize the car first before making a final decision.

    No match mag jazz ka na.

    City vs jazz, Jazz syempre.

    Kahit jazz vs civic eh jazz pa rin.

    Oo nga pala wag ka muna bumili agad. Antay mo muna kung available na yellow color na jazz.

    There are reasons why it is not as popular.

    Car too small.

    Car too expensive for it's size.

    Casa service sucks.

    Dont just rely on their in house financing like RCBC. Kuha ka rin ng quote sa mga mababa magbigay ng rates like BPI Family Bank. Or ask Metrobank kung extended yung super low rates nila last year. Ganyan din nangyari sakin sa Honda Kal, in house ang RCBC. Nagtanong ako sa labas. Pinantayan nila (RCBC). Yung friend ko naman pinantayan ng Metro yung lowest ng RCBC.hth
    sayang yung makukuha mong discounts. pang bag din yun.:D

    I have to warn you that the L13A engine on the GM1 City and GE6 Jazz does not perform at its best mated to the automatic gearbox. I test-drove a GE6 Jazz A/T and I found pickup pretty sluggish. The programming of the automatics is very heavily geared toward economy, to the detriment of acceleration.

    Later on I test-drove a GM1 City with the manual gearbox - and it was very very peppy indeed. The transmission choice can make or break the driving experience with that particular engine, the L13A.

    HTHs

help! Jazz 1.3 AT or Swift AT?
