go with the Honda City, because it means your helping secure Filipino workers at their Laguna factory rather than securing jobs of Thai workers (incase of the Jazz). and oh yes, agree with Kyoots points as well.

Ako lang ata ang pabor sa Jazz. Why? Mas mura sya kaysa sa City and IMO over the long run it will retain its resale value a bit better than the City. The Jazz is also a world model known as Fit in other markets while the City is not available in the US. Ngayon lang hot ang City kasi yan yung bago, pero eventually when it starts flooding the streets wala na rin yung glamour...

For me id go for the jazz (specs are practivally the same)

y?

1.) i prefer the interior design
2.) better space, leg and headroom
3.) better outside view (large panel windows)
4.) Better re-sale value (benefit for those who change cars often)

Default Re: new city 1.5 vs new jazz 1.5

i saw and nakasakay na ako sa new jazz and new city.

Interior - Jazz wins, why? new city has only 1 glove box now compare to jazz na niretain yung 2 glove box sa harap. City head unit panel looks cheap, while jazz head unit panel looks like designed by a reputable designer, yung sa city para kasing chinese ang style eh. Yung sandalan sa likod ng Jazz of coure nafo-fold down, while sa city hindi na sya tulad ng dati na ULT. Again, look at the jazz Aircon knob and compare it to City, then you judge kung alin ang mas pinagisipan at mas pinaganda. Very cheap and common ang dating ng knob ng new city

Exterior - Sa mukha, i vote for the Jazz also, ang angas kasi ang lapad ng wind shield, grill also looks nicer. Sa rear, panalo pa rin ang Jazz , tingnan mo yung sa city tabingi ang ilaw....

Overall, value for money ang Jazz sa totoo lang....

City is like the Civic nung unang lumabas, ang angas pero nung kumalat na sa kalye nakakasawa. Ganan din amngyayari sa New City, ngayun lang yan nakakatuwang pagmasdan...so just see to your self na lang ang features kung pasok sa taste mo.

I'd take the City. I've been a fan of sedans for their bigger storage capcity. Ayaw ko kasi magsama yung cargo sa cabin meant for people. And besides, it looks like a USDM Civic.

Default Re: new city 1.5 vs new jazz 1.5

seems to me, it boils down to just three questions:
1. how big is your garage?
2. how much cargo do you intend to bring around?
3. how much crash protection do you want at the rear?
btw, isn't the basic city cheaper than the basic jazz by about 35K?

I'd go for the Jazz..
I think the new Jazz will still standout in the next 3-4 years given its cute looks..

the new City for me, now that marami na ren nasa kalye, is getting too boring looking, especially the rear which is beginning to look like that of the old vios.

kuha ko kanina sa C.Raymundo Mercury bago umuwe


i've been a passenger for both rides, but only got to drive the Jazz.. I like the new Jazz.. nice handling, ample legroom and really cute! my friend has the white version and with the black garnishings and the super black 3M all around, ang ganda!

I'd go for the city. Prefer ko sedan than the hatch. May privacy ang passenger from cargo. Halimbawa nagkataon ma-a-amoy yung karga mo e di kung jazz ung car mo lahat kayo mangangamuy sa loob nga cabin. At saka kung yung dala mo medyo mainit sa mata e hindi sya makita kung sa trunk mo e lagay, where as kung sa jazz pwede ata masilip sa glass window.

2009 City ang ganda. Jazz is too small and too cutesy.
