We’ve been road-tripping around Bohol since this morning together with the team of people from Honda Cars Philippines driving four of their new entry-level cars. The sedan has several unique features that would catch the curiosity of gadget-lovers out there.

We were also asked to bring our iPods so we can test the in-car sound system, a request I was more than happy to oblige.

Will post more details about this and my impressions tomorrow evening once we finish the final leg of our test drive. This is also my first time to do some sort of review of any automotive vehicle so my focus will be more on the tech behind the whole package.

There is a never-ending list of aftermarket accessories available for your Honda Prelude, but if enhancing your vehicle’s style and improving its performance is your concern, then nothing would beat custom Honda Prelude wheels of course with the corresponding set of tires.

honda city 2009 is very fine and good looking.

Front of the new Accord, side profile of the Avante & Altis/Axio, and rear of the previous generation Vios… Have to see the complete product to tell the full picture. BUT confirm better than the current “Jazz-with-a-boot” design.

Problema ko lang sa civic, pag car wash mo, may naiiwan na water sa side mirror.

The cheapest Hondy City 2009 is about 670+ and the top of the line is about 860k+.

TM · 17 years ago

Obed, the 1.5 city is not 600k. There is no more 600k brand new car with that price. 1.5 city is around 800k top of the line model.

Wow, love the fascia of the new Honda City… Want one! (Reminds self of the recession…)

Brownspank · 17 years ago

I really like the new look of Honda City, mainly because it’s an improvement over the previous one (na parang bitin sa trunk).

Abe,

1. How’s the ride/suspension? Stiff? Plush?
2. How’s the in-car audio?
3. Back up sensors?
4. Fuel consumption?
5. Does it come with the GPS standard?
(wishful thinking, but hey, worth a shot! haha)

Bottom line: I love how it looks, but is it worth selling my kidneys for? :)
