    I suggest you buy a city with a manual tranny if you are after this particular model, a civic dimension body matic tranny also fits your budget.

    The 'matic' City/Jazz is actually equipped with a CVT (Continuous Variable Transmission). While mas matipid dapat ito compared sa traditional Automatic, masirain yung CVT ng Honda for those year models. Kaya bumalik sila to a traditional A/T for their succeeding cars.

    Thank You. Pero, kung manual na city ang bibilhin ko, mas okey na po ba?

    Yup, the manual variant has no such problems.

    be aware though that CVT engines medyo magastos ang maintenance. spark plug pa lang every time you change it instead of the usual 4, 8 ang pinapalitan.

    Bro.,- I think that you are referring to Honda City/Jazz's (old) iDSI engines, which has 8 spark plugs.

    CVT is a transmission variant (A/T) for these vehicles.... Medyo problemado ang mga ito, kaya ang current models ng City/Jazz,- 5 A/T na...

    Currently looking for a secondhand car in that range. Sa Honda, 01-02 Civic LXi/VTi AT pasok dyan. 03-04 City i-DSi CVT pasok din.
