i found the door locks awkward too. ilang beses kong finiflick pag may lalabas/papasok sa car.

my average drive is 10.8 km/l, pque to makati to pque or pque to alabang to pque pero less than 100km travelled pa naman.

and i find the headlights and fog lights a bit too dim... or is my tint too dark? i have medium dark 3m tint on, what do you think?

mine nasa 180km na in just 2 days

same here. 3m medium dark din tint ko. Maybe it has something to do with the tint kaya medyo dim nga ang light.

how's the paddle shifter? I haven't tried it yet. When do you usually use it?

hindi sir hiwalay din sya...yun lng din daw kinakabit nila na (default) alarm sa CITY except fo E. d ko na tinanong kung anong brand yun kinakabit nila sa E.

How much does the casa installed alarm for the City 1.5E cost? Any recommendation for an after-market alarm for the 1.5E?

tnx

im just a newbie in this site and i got my city 1 month ago. just like to ask if anyone of you who has a 17rims in there car? im planning to get a 17rims with a 40 series tires. what is the best offset for this? thanks

If you will use 17 suggest ko use 45 series of tire so don't have much fender gap. Mine i've installed 18 then 40 series nitto tires. Then usually the dealers will offer 205 on 17 para sa city but use 215 para di dilikado sa gutter. Mine is 215 so far walang rubbing issues. Use nitrogen instead of ordinary compressed air. In the end its still your decision to follow.

Talagang mahina ang headlight ng city. Parang wla kang headlight pag nasa bright areas. Suggest ko HID, worth to have it. Its for your safety naman. Regarding sa paddle shift, best in highways for overtaking purposes. Pag w/in city lang a/t the best.

Thanks for the advise Spynz.

The 17inch rims that im planning to buy is a 2nd hand inclusive of 3 40series tires from my friend. Would you advise to stick for the 40 series or need to buy the 45 series tires? Btw, i would appreciate if you can send a pics of your car so i would have an idea of the fender gap of a 45 series. thanks!

if you are going for a 17in and 40 series, then talagang 205 ang ilalagay coz that would approximate the total diameter compared sa stock na 175/65R15.

Kung 17 inch and 45 series, width would have to be 195.

I would like to but i'm out of the country right now. Maybe 2nd week of July i will post my ride. If your saving money then go ahead. I'm not used kasi with smaller rim. Anyway kanya kanya nman yan. My outie had a 255/35/20 with lowering spring pa kaya sanay na ako sa matagtag. My city had a 215/40/18 lang. So 17 and using 40 series tire would be smaller than my 18 rims.
