Posted by gallian98 on Mar 10, 2011
well where to start from i just bought xli last year,and i would say its just a bit underpowered but its a 1.3,you cant complain,i would say its a top car according to pakistan and the local market very cheap to run easily converted to cng,suspension is good aswell as break,look are top noch and comfort for the price you pay is top,interior is stylish and well equiped any extras you want you can have it cheap aftermarket,as always the top thing in this car is the badge engine is very reliable and sound,i will give this car 5/5 for the amount of money you spend in pakistan,remember you get all these rubbish cars still worth 10 lakh ruppees,thumps up corolla

Honda City 1.3 i-VTEC
Posted by Jahangir Amin on Feb 24, 2011
bought city 2009 zero meter
initially i was excited as usual and was enjoying like hell. started hating corolla the most and started participating in Honda vs Corolla threads praising city like if it is the best ever...
but now after driving more than 20,000, my views are a little bit changed. this doesnot mean i started hating city or something like that but i realized that corolla is not that bad as well...coming to my experience of the new honda city,
as i told you i enjoyed it like hell and i am still enjoying it...
as far as the shape of the car is concerned, it is not sumthing lik static or standard. everyone has his own choice. for some it may be good and vice versa for others. i like its shape but always wished certain changes in its shape like i hate the shape of its front bumper.
though i am not a technological guy but i beleive that city's shape is very much aerodynamical. i travel on isb to peshawar motorway very often and beleive me this car accelerates without much resistance of air drag. tried many tmes, without looking at speedometer, i floor my car, shiftthe gears and upon shifting fifth i look at speedometer and i am always near or above 200. and at 200, i dont feel anything negative which makes me slow down the car and this is because of good aerodynamics of the car.
other good things the car has got is excellent acceleration, the very famous VTEC, excellent fuel milage, good AC, electronic stearing which feels awesome, good sound system(i am not into music stuff).
when i got the car, i was also supposed to CNG it. i delayed it for some time and thought that i will install CNG after running it for some 5 or 10 thousand kilometers. but after reaching 10,000 i had completely forgot i ever thought of installing CNG and till now i am very much satisfied with its fuel average.
there are some cons in the car as well which i experienced.
the rear suspension of the car is a bit hard, infact very hard, to b honest. if the road is a little bit uneven, the pleasure of its drive becomes adverse suddenly. the car's hight is normal when only 2 persons are there. but when some one sits on its rear seat, it becomes a little bit low. if 5 perons enter the car, it becomes vry low and you have t be vary carefull at bumps.
City has got very poor sound deadening. The sound of little stones hitting the car during driving is echoed inside the cabin which is very much irritating. i can literally hear the sound of splashes of gasoline in the fuel tank inside the cabin.
Overall i am satisfied with my car as no thing in this world i perfect.
