well, its a worrisome situation as your have explained, at least for me cause I have just booked Aspire 3 days back and I cant afford further price hike. The car would already cost me 1.7 m after registration and misc. expenses. BUT my hunch feelings suggests that there would be no facelift this time cause major changes in city have already be introduced in Aspire n what is left are just bumper and lights. Again that's just me; who knows when they are doing what..
Previously , I had experience with Toyota and they didn't ask for price difference. I booked my car during the same time last yr and right after a week price jumped and before my delivery there was again increase in the price but fortunately I didn't have to pay anything and as suggested by many members on pakwheels you only pay the price at the time of booking except for any govt imposed tax or surcharge. Rest is fine, manufacturers wont ask you for the difference because of inflation or cost overhead that is incurred in the production process.
But who knows its Pakistan and nothing is sure and certain and yor booking order also states that price at the time of delivery would be charged.
and BTW how can you force Honda for early delivery. They will deliver the car when its ready; that is the prevailing practice; are there any book door or VIP treatment for early delivery as well?
