Insurance 25,000.00
Rust Proofing 4,000.00
Chattel Mortgage 20,000.00
LTO 6,250.00

i always thought most of these fees would be waived. is this a fair quotation from the SA or do you think i need to negotiate more?

thanks in advance.

just sharing (mine is 1.3 A/T)
insurance: 21,000 (installment)
rust proof: FREE
chattel mortgage: 15,000
LTO: 7,200 3years
tint: FREE 3M brand

i did not limit my choice of dealership to one, actually i made inquiries to 4 dealerships, and considered options offered by 3 banks.

goodluck.

Well, yun lang po ang maishe-share ko sa ngayon. As for accessories, hmm, yung loob pa lang ang nalalagyan ko eh. Like the steering wheel cover, auto shift knob cover, park brake lever cover, racing pedals, headrest cushion, etc... For the exterior, I plan to give it an "executive loook". Since elegant na tignang bare naked ang Polished Metal na City'09, siguro mudguards at side mouldings na lang ang ikakabit ko.

By the way, tama po yung previous post na ang MAHAL nang mudguards sa casa... Php4,500 ang quote sa akin! Anak nang tupa! Share naman po sana sa ating lahat kung saan pwedeng malakuha ng mudguards for City'09, yung body mould po sana, wag naman yung parang standard na "flap" type lang (na kulay itim).

Thanks![/quote]

Bro share mo naman kung saan mo nabili mga accessories mo? Standards ba para sa 09City? Magkano? Post ka ng pics. TIA.
Sa tingin ko kaya mahal yung mudguard sa casa kc body mould at hindi yung flat type na binibenta ng iba.

The orig front grill looks way better IMO. What I'd like to do in my wife's City is change to fatter tires and put side door moldings to protect from parking-induced dings.

Just had the 1K check last Sat and unfortunately a small scratch on the driver's door resulted from the dry wiping of Honda's carwash attendant..damn it.

exactly the same plan i was about to do (regarding changing the tires). However, Honda told me the warranty would be voided if i do change the mags (and sell the stock wheels, actually may buyer na nga eh). So di ko na tinuloy.

Ayaw ko naman magpalit ng tires lang (from 175/65 to 195/55),what am i gonna do with the installed tires naman? kakahinayang lang. wala naman bibili nun. hayyyzzz... nothing else to do but wait for the time the stock tires need to be changed.

around 4.5k nga pero body mould na po sya. kasi ito rin yung base material na gagamitin if you want it painted with body color which will cost an additional 2.5K. i did not opt for body color since bagay naman yung plain black color sa bold beige.

i got 3M tints for free but they charged me 4K for the rust proof.
also back to N* na yung plate number ko. but walang LTO stickers (walang production daw). so my questions are:
1) although i have the certificate of registration/official receipt as proof, takaw attention ba ito sa mga put*ng mga pulis kapag walang LTO sticker?
2) bakit walang nakalagay na 3years registration sa certificate of reg?

1. definitely, mainit sa mata ng mokong na mga pulis/mmda yan. They don't look at the plates actually but at the stickers. Pera ang tingin nila pag walang sticker pero OK lang yun, para mapahiya sila. yun nga lang, abala.
2. stickers lang ag proof ng validity with the 3-yr registration.

ganda naman pagkaka-haggle ko sa dealer ko. I got the following for free ; 3M tint (full windshield and windows), rust proofing, 3-yr LTO registration. Delivered in a carrier pa!

Ayos nga yung offer sayo especially yung full tint at free LTO. For me naman super baba ang insurance at chatel at interest.. Yet free rin ang tint and rustproof..

With regards to plate number, ok lang naman kahit walang sticker aware ang MMDA dyan sa mga bagong kotse... ako nga may plaka na hindi ko pa kabit next month na para iwas coding hehehe.... ganda ngayon plate number NSI hehehe
