Honda City - wait time ??

that saddens QQPlus.

well,like it or not qqplus,but Old design of Honda City isn't available since past 1 1/2 years..
Dude,go in for New one..it's better in terms of Fuel efficiency,Interiors,Interior space and also Trunk space..
Only drawback is power specs..but once you test drive it,doesn't feel underpowered at all..and yeah..few had thought of the new shape as a bit weird,but now,people have started accepting it,infact,many have started liking it ..after few mods like wider tires with neat set of alloys it will look cool.
btw,got a call from the dealer..car is expected on monday,13th June...so,hopefully,delivery should be within 5 working days after 13th june !

CVT VTEC City around the Rs10.5

At that price i dont think it will invite buyers..

Well why is the dealer taking 5days it usually takes 2 days..

Dealer(Ichibaan Honda,Worli) says it takes around 4 working days for them to complete the Insurance and RTO Registration procedure on any vehicle..so,counting about 5 days more for delivery after they get the car in their showroom.

Hey.. was planning to fit in these alloys in Black NHC..they're not chrome..but look cool..
They are K-Speed 14 inch imported alloys..or should I go in for Chrome Indian neowheels alloys?

The allot looks damn nice but nothing beats chrome ones and specially on a black car chrome will really look damn good..

srasania · 25th June 2005, 20:23

Well,guys,after a long wait time of 7 weeks,I FINALLY got the car !

Here is the pic. of the car on the day of delivery -

And here is one more pic. after Teflon polymer coating + Hard Chrome alloys.

I am planning to fit in a Pioneer CD/MP3 head unit with Kicker or SoundStream 6 speaker component audio system,and PU coated seat covers.As for window tints,I've decided for V-Kool,but will fit them in after the rains.
Car had logged 65kms when I took delivery from Ichibaan Honda,Worli.

Also,Linkway don't accept Credit Card payments for Car sales,while Ichibaan Honda do accept Credit Card payments for cars..and I wanted to pay whole amt. by Credit Card..so,went in for Ichibaan.

You bought the Honda on a credit card? Why would you do that?

Well,GTO,my family lives abroad,and here,I pay all bills by Credit card(which is add on to my dads card abroad)..so,I preferred Credit card payment for the vehicle.

congrats srsania. the wheels look great. btw are they only available in glossy finish. i like matt finish like the honda accord wheels.

when is honda launching vtec version of the city??

srasania · 26th June 2005, 08:06

The alloys are also available in Silver Polish finish,but I had read reviews on which ones look good,and got to know from the forum that Chromes look best for Black NHC..so,went in for chrome..but they are available in Silver Polish finish also.
I had inquired with the dealer about launch of NHC VTEC..he said probably early next year..but Honda Civic(price tag around Rs11,00,000 is going to be launched this year around Nov.-Dec.
