Honda started giving a 2yr/50000km warranty on the city in 2007. The warranty was 1 yr for 2006 and earlier models.

rl dude: great to hear your comments and yes i agree the stock tires are pain

wish i had known it earlier then i would have changed it when i took the car from the show room

my suggestion to new steermatic dudes: changes tires and battery with the "dry" one

archon: bro the advantage with dry or "maintenance free battery" is that you dont need to worry about the water level in all the cells.

As for AMPS, you can get the same rating as your current or default battery has.

tell me u feeling better after changing the tires, i mean is there a "big" difference in comfort?

And!! Khair Mubarak

@retrograde
The stock tyres arent bad at all. The only downside to them is that they are slighlty more performance oriented than one would want daily drivers to be. The result is good handling at the cost of ride quality. The impact of every imperfection on the road is accentuated.

Salams

Today after Eid Salah, I took my car on the highway for an excercise. Knowing that the road would be totally empty this was the ideal time to see what exactly the 1.5L motor has stored. It was time to unleased those 110 ponines....

Well, the top speed on a levelled road was 190km/h. That's right! I tried it 6 times to cancel any effect of wind (going towards Hyd. and coming to Khi) but that was it. The speedo wouldn't simply go any further. So there you have it guys the top speed (on a flat road) of our beloved Steermatic is 190 km/h.

But that's not all. Because I found a really nice down hill where I hit 210km/h and there was still 300 rpm left. That is 7th gear, S mode 210 km/h @ 5900 rpm. So this car is rev limited at (let's say) 215 or 218..

And on my way back I did race a 1.8 Civic manual. After 190 that car slowly slipped away. Probably was going at 200 or so. But I couldn't go beyond 190. Anyway, Civic reborn is a different machine.

Eid Mubarak to all and enjoy your day

bluntknife (bluntknife) 2007-10-17 04:43:00 +0500 #474

@hahohe
The discount on steermatic has been in place ever since begininning of 2007, not after production ended.

@memphis
Got the speakers you suggested to me about two months ago. Pioneer TS-A1682 for the exact same price(2800 w/ fitting) that you found out for me. Thanks again buddy, they sound pretty good when i consider the fact that i am running them off the head unit only.

is it confirmed that steermatic production has ended?..a bit hard to believe.
