    pag ginagawa taxi, nakawin. kaya mataas ang carnap figures ng FX, Revo saka corolla, kasi ninanakaw para gamitin pam-business. fixer lang sa LTO to convert from green plate to yellow plate.

    I'd also stay away from taxi cars.

    Practical-wise, City is the hands down winner. Economy, features, space.

    Looks and tunability goes to Vios.

    So it really depends on what you want, practicality or looks.

    Sir/Ma'am,

    Medyo bias ako d2 kc City S CVT ang ride ko... Pero hear me out. You get best of both worlds(Manual and Auto Trans) sa City... Why? Ang City although Auto by default can be manually driven via buttons on the steering wheel withou hassle of clutch. Plus and fuel economy niya is Superb! parang manual ang consumption nya without having to drive slow, normal driving lang. Pede rin i-race kc nga may manual transmission din although, why buy a 1.3L autotrans car if you want to race di ba? Buy a bigger car.

    Space wise hands down and City di cramp both sa harap at sa likod. Plus with ULT seats pede pa tulugan pag nag away kayo ni misis.

    Medyo mahina nga lang ung aircon compared sa Vios. Pero its ok.


    Add:
    And most important reason why I opted CVT over manual trans is... Karamihan ng nakakasakay ko na drivers nagrereklamo kapag stop and go traffic. Kesyo sakit sa paa, namumulikat, naninigas(ung hita ha), ay nakahigh gear pa pala, and worst drivers... namamatayan pa in an incline.

    hello peeps!i just want to share my inputs on this being a new owner of a 1.3cvt honda city(shoreline mist) last week and here are my insights:cvt is really cool!!!shifting is very very smooth you wouldn't feel it,ULT seats are nice although we haven't put it to use yet,comfortable to drive and interior is good and mind you it is spacious considering that it is a subcompact car....
    What i don't like so far is the horn coz i find it too soft and i find the headlights inadequate at night it seems that it's not bright enough that i am thinking of adding fog lamps(does any city owners share this view?)but overal l we're quite satisfied so far fuel milage is 9-10 km per L city driving ang i think this will improves after the 1k pms.....
    Personally if you are after the looks i would say vios is the hands down winner but features wise i would say go for the city!

    Baba naman fuel mileage mo kapatid, baket 9-10 lang? City minimum mileage is about 14-16 for the 1.3 liter engine.

    just bought a vios 1.3e 3 weeks ago. prior to that i test drove the city type s (wala test drives vios). slightly larger interior ng city than that of the vios, BUT di ko talaga masikmura exterior looks ng city. sabi sa kin ng sales agent "sir, mas mataas din headroom nyan kesa vios." so i said "kaya nga masagwa hitsura sa labas kse sobrang taas ng headroom." napangiti na lang sya hehe

    for me, mas maganda pa nga porma ng corolla AE101 ko kesa dun sa vios. my kid calls the vios "the fat car". lalo na siguro kung yung city kinuha ko. my kid would call it the "obese" car.

    but it's just me. my opinion shouldn't be of much importance to to car buyers. pera naman nila gagastusin nila e. and i don't mind owning a "taxi" car also. other people's opnions are not that important to me either

    sige mga fafa, carbarn na ko e

    well i think it will improve after the 1k PMS coz right now odo reads at 400 and you're right i think its too low if it's consuming 10km per L only

    ganyan naman talaga honda eh, sa una parang odd talaga tignan. but once the family is complete (accord) people will see the resemblance. sa civic lang and city ngaun kitang-kita na. masarap talaga maging member ng honda family hehehe kahit wala na ako honda car.

    Honda City cost 1600 per PMS while Toyota cost 3K++ per PMS

    regarding sa brand reliability (based on MSN News) Toyota has the most recalled cars and Honda is in top 10 din ng most recalled. a Though acceptable din naman na nasa top list ng most recalled car ang toyota kasi 2nd largest car manufacturer in the world sila, baka after 1 year or 2 most largest na...

    But if you a family man, always on the go, walang pakialam sa asthetics exterior at gusto mo na alaga ka ng service center... You go for to Honda.

    still case to case basis pa din, if u wanted honda sa yuchengco group ka bumili (tama ba? yuechenco or yupangco) kahit kanino basta y nag sisimula mas maalaga sila... based po sa experience namin...

    Get the City. Dami problem encountered sa Vios coming fresh from casa which are of the same kind (a sign of factory or design defect...'dont know if this has already been corrected by the local assembler/manufacturer) ... see the viosclub thread. Though there's also problem sa city, but I think its an isolated case....

    City has great interiors and spacious... regarding exterior...already improved from the previous model. The point is, you dont stay outside the car when you drive it, hence its better that the interior is best looking..IMO. Just like a house, you stay under the roof not outside hence you should be comfortable inside not outside, otherwise sa labas ka na lang mag e stay.

    in other words, kung bibili ka ng vios, pang-garahe lang yan.


    j/k lang po hehehe
