honda city comments II
History : I posted a review about Honda City 20 years ago in my blog. I’ve blogged about it’s weird looks - like a flowerhorn fish … and it’s trunk is too big to fit a few mother in laws.
A honda salesman then posted a comment to defend that flowerhorn fish car here.
Guess what ? Today, another Honda salesman posted something up to defend that fugly car. What amazes me is, HE POSTED THE SAME POINT ABOUT THE DARN CAR !. You salesman never learn, do you ? Here’s his post.

“I think u didnt like the City’s looks agreed but here everyone loves the City for it looks- sporty .
City is the hottest sellng car mind you
And for one-More you see the City -more you love it’s looks -It is not proportionate in a traditional sense but hey-its well merged curves look quite good and sporty + it’s lights are quite sophisticated
Forget it’s looks -May be controversial but its classy interiors are better than any other car of ts size and even bigger cars -So its more car per car
Plus Mileage -Very Low and great comfort for those who love their car’s interiors
Long looking cars are old fashioned dear friend its all about aerodynamics and merging lines and curves and city excels in this”
Again, my reply to this Honda salesman.
Dear Honda salesman a.k.a Harry Potter (hahah.. fuck.. he should be concerned on magic brooms). Thanks for commenting. I have a few comments about your post.
1) I have given up debating on Honda City’s looks. I’ve already said it articulately - It’s a goddamn ugly car. Nevermind the aerodynamics. Nevermind the curves. This is akin to judging a girl - no matter how round the girl’s rack or how curvy her ass is, if she’s looking like a swine with leprosy - she WILL be labeled as UGLY. Without parole.
2) Classy interiors ? Very subjective my friend. I’ve seen better. Check out all Peugeots, Citroens or even Renaults’ interior. You’ll get what I mean. So, this point is void (baseless).
3) Comfort ? If it was driven between 0 to 80kph - yes. But hell, all vehicles are suppose to be comfortable at that speed.
Post 100, the stability decreases and wind noise apparent. Not very significantly impressive if you ask me. My car can do over 160 without feeling a slight vibration. Like I’ve stressed in my previous post, Honda City is a compact sedan. It has limited ability when it comes to speeeeeed.
4) Long looking car old fashion ? Duuuuude. Please. Long front means there’s a monster engine inside the hood. Short back means a 2 seater/doors with no trunk room to store mother in laws (coz the owners are mostly single). Sorry to disappoint you but, these kind of architecture still dominates the top end market .. and they are the cars that still defines one’s standard. (check out Mazda RX-8 for example)
5) The only thing good about Honda City is the fuel consumption - which I agree it’s damn impressive. But one could be paying more to maintain the CVT when it comes to wear and tear … so, LPPL.
6) Try to use punctuation marks next time. It really makes your sentence easier to read.
Damn, why do all Honda salesman have problems with punctuation marks ? Or could it be that they are the same person ? Well, not that I care anyway.
