    Yeah true.

    By the looks you could get the RS Sport and add the mugen grill which looks nicer IMO

    if we are indeed getting the GK chassis with the old GE engine/drivetrain, I'd expect fuel economy to be no better than 7l/100km.

    Sigh

    Dude, I Definitely know where you come from...

    But Honda will indeed improve the fuel consumption on the 3rd gen Jazz with the old drivetrain. Just think about the fuel consumption differ from 8th gen and 9th gen civic with similar R18 engine. Also the 3rd gen Jazz's CVT would further make it "more economic" than the outgoing model.

    the only downfall i see, is there is only 1 baby seat anchor instead of 2.

    and unlike the hybrid (which i had to drive yesterday during servicing) you get full boot space like normal. ++

    forgot to mention, most their colors are pearls or metallic too.... and the auto up/down for passanger front window! bonus. tweeters and alarm too!


    (ok my fault, not less money. same )

    Agree with the car tech update on the 3rd gen Jazz over the. But there are some what I personally call "Big Sacrifices" on the 3rd gen Jazz as trade off for the sharp price tag:

    1. Even though the Engine on the 3rd gen Jazz is the old L15A, but it may not be the same L15A on the GE Jazz. If you have a look at the engine room pics on the GE Jazz, the L15A7 engine has the metal or aluminium Manifold; but when I check the engine on the new Honda City, it has plastic manifold instead. I dont have any picture to show how the engine look like in the 3rd gen Aussie Jazz, but we all know it share lots of parts with the new CITY.

    Best way to know anything about the new engine is to look under the hood and see its engine code and normally any kind of change means a new engine code.
    Wikipedia just lists the engines for the new jazz as L13B and L15B.

    At this rate, it looks like australia is the only country that gets the older engine.

    I went and saw the jazz today, the dash glows blue or green, but it was hard for me to see in the day light.

    The engine is a L15Z5.
    The front looks nice, but i dont really like the look of the rear when i see it.
