It is a new car. No problem in my current car.

My earlier car Honda City of 2005 had two problems: suspension sound in the front, and electronic power steering needed to be changed at 30,000 kms.

This car has one problem.. It does not allow fitting of a door alarm system to discourage thieves from breaking in. In India we do have thieves.. as you know!! Honda used to allow this earlier; now it has withdrawn this approval, nor is it fixing the security system with Ultrasonic Sensors for cars they sell in India. They say they do it only for City cars sold outside India.

General Comments:

Otherwise a GOOD car.

Faults:

None so far!

General Comments:

The Honda City is powerful, comfortable and convenient than before. While there is always room for improvement, the car does not disappoint in any aspect.

Faults:

No big problems.

Power steering needed servicing once.

Recently I had to replace the radiator, dunno if it was absolutely necessary.

Had to replace the front brake kits; piston was getting jammed. Very sparingly used. So I feel it causes more harm to your car if you use it so rarely.

Paint is very fragile. Scratches easily.

Road noise can be a bit disturbing, though the suspension is pretty good; you'll feel the road.

It's difficult to get in the driver's seat and out, without pushing the seat back. Should've kept 14 inch wheels. I feel that's the most stupid thing about this car.

It's a damn good car. Never want to sell it. Great pick up. Can drive it around like a sports car, at least in India :)

At the same time, you can drive it even below 30kmph without troubling the engine. First to second shift is a bit bumpy unless you release the clutch really carefully.

Good handling.

Maintenance is very little. I usually service only once in a year. Of course I run only 3k per year.

It's more for driving pleasure rather than passenger comfort. I guess that is applicable to other Hondas as well.

I get 18kmpl with the A/C on highways. I guess it's a bit tough to get on other saloons.

If anyone says the honda city is an expensive to maintain car, then there must be something seriously wrong with the driving style... parts are expensive alright, but there are not many things that can go wrong with a Honda so if you are a good driver, you can run on a very low budget. I have some friends who bought the new City (GXi) and everyone has a different mileage... ranging from 10 KM/L to 18 KM/L... the new cars needs to be driven in a certain style to extract the best mileage... Otherwise, I have never been happier abut any other car...
