2014 Honda City (Gen 4)

**alptraum** · September 7th, 2017 03:21 AM

Do you guys know where I can find the VIN of our Honda City GM6 aside from the sticker on the engine bay? Yung tipong embossed na pwede i-stencil ng LTO. I went around the usual VIN spots and didn't find it: engine bay, lower part of the windshield, bottom of the B pillar.

The E already has DRL, fog lamps, alloy wheels, touch screen HU w/ bluetooth, steering wheel controls, white backlight for the speedometer.

It just lacks the glossy finish of the dashboard (which is prone to smudges and scratches anyway), leather steering wheel and shift knob, silver inside door handles, slightly better speedo, and auto climate control.

Is the 109k difference still worth it?

To each his own parin Sir. And I agree with you sa wheel design, mas prefer ko yung 15 inch.

If you can live without the paddle shifters(which I believe is not available in the aftermaket). Then the E would suffice you.

The instrument cluster (or speedo) is not slightly better. It is better by far. The one on Vx has more features than the one on E CVT. Also, the new E CVT's cluster is still the same as that of the old E CVT's, only the color is changed. There's also the paddle shift. Sulit sila if you want them. Though nice to have lang naman mga yan.

I agree the clusters looks way better, yung clusters din yung isa sa reason kaya ng VX ako hehe (pre facelift). Though kanya kanya naman tayo ng preference, may mga tao naman na ok na sa looks ng E clusters.

Bulok din ang HU sa bagong E CVT. It may now have a touchscreen, but all you can do is listen to music. You can't even mirror your phone, nor simply watch a movie. And no navigation too.

Which is pretty much what the Vios HU does too.

The City E wasn't upgraded to cannibalize the VX, but to offer a superior product over the Vios E. I think they succeeded on that front.

If you want fancy things, shell out an extra 100k for the VX. The only thing I don't like with the VX now is the rim design. Looks like a Beyblade.

I agree. The VX rim’s design looks too busy.
