[sotingcoacs]

yep thats the real thing...they have designed it differ from the jazz esp. the interior for cheaper molding process... that pic was caught in honda thailand.... so maybe it will be launched here by next year. i'll definitely wait for it

Nice! Maganda na ang proportions ngayon. Parang may built-in ducktail spoiler pa.

Triple WOW! Hopefully it looks better in real life. At least now, based on the picture, the front and rear are proportioned. It looks so futuristic and it looks like a transformers.hehe For sure the competition with Vios will be on again or future Vios owners might reconsider if they see this in showrooms.

Bakit lahat ng steering wheel ng Honda pareho? This is the same steering wheel the Jazz and the Civic has...

and more...

DAMN!!! I hope it's not the same as the old one. Madaling mayupi yung dati eh....

[Hero]

the taillights look weird in some angles, parang galant shark na bmw 3 series na luma..

Alin yung madaling mayupi?

that's to streamline the cost in producing these vehicles.

The dash has no semblance to the new Jazz. They really did design the City from scratch. Unlike the old one, which looked like the Jazz with another car's butt screwed on...

Well, in Japan, the "City" was a sedan version of the Jazz. I think it was called the Fit Aria? Something along that line.

Personally I don't like the rear fascia. Honda never got it right even with the (still) current gen City. Too angular, mimics the Lancer too much. And I was never a fan of the redesigned front grille, from the Ridgeline here in the US, to the Accord, and now to the City. Reminds me way too much of the Gilette Mach 3

Ako kasi, I much prefer cars that are designed to still look good even after a few years, or decades, down the road. I've seen cars that have aged too quickly.

Or, perhaps, I'm just used to the City being the baby brother of the Honda line up, and this model has grown up. Maybe my mind will change when I see one in person

is that an MB plug?

[ale828]

parang transformers yung dating, especially the front grill.

[CVT]

I think that this time, if I were to choose between the Jazz and the City again, I'd choose the latter....

Well this new baby is starting to grow on me

Everything looks so fresh. They did a nice touch with the fog lamps frame.

But that thick lipped grill will take some time to get used to and the famed H badge has swelled to screaming proportions which might prompt a new owner to get a more subtle looking aftermarket grill pronto right after driving-off the casa.

Well at least the rear now looks so much better with those chiseled edges. I can really say now that it is more masculine.

They built this City on Rock n' Roll!!

heared the top of the line will have the paddle shifters.

[suysuy]

yes. they will. atleast paddles shifters na. yung akin nasa manibela. medyo mahirap mag switch ng gears lalo na liko

[a9828]

question lang. how often do you guys actually use manual shifters when you already have a/t or cvt?

i've had my jazz for 2 years and i can actually count on my fingers the number of instances i used 'manual' shifting. if i need hatak, shift land to S mode and then balik D kapag ok na.

hindi ba parang pointless feature na yung paddle shifters? unless of course it's paddle shifting for a manual tranny.

[daimengrui]

OT:

Heres a useful article on when or when not to use the Paddle Shifters
