Hello friends,
I know buying a car can be a daunting task specially when you have so many options.
I own this car since Nov 2012, and simply love it. Have driven about 23k km on it, with long (as long as 440kms at a stretch) and short hauls(typical city driving) included.
Exterior I am sure everybody has there own preferences when it comes to exterior so I won't elaborate too much on it. Personally I feel its pleasant looking car.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The model I own comes with dual interiors, beige and creme I think. Although the vehicle looks small from outside, but has massive amounts of space inside. Leg room is good enough for a guy like me who is 5'9" and so is the boot space.
It came with a built in stereo system, I don't know the make but the sound quality is amazing.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Powered by 1.2lt engine it gives a smooth ride irrespective of terrain. I have driven this vehicle extensively on mountainous region. When it was me, my wife and my 1 yr old kid, I had no issues getting through the uphill on 2nd and 3rd gear, mostly 3rd. When we went to ooty in march this year, we were 4 adults and 1 kid and we went uphill mostly on 2nd gear at times 3rd or 1st. In my opinion engine performance is a thumbs up on all fronts.
In a city like bangalore where traffic jams are rampant I get a mileage of 13.5-14 km/lt in city, however on highway I have been able to achieve 17.5-18.5km/lt.
The gear box is smooth and crisp. I am glad I did not pick up the automatic version.
Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality is flawless, I would Like to mention, as you attain higher speed, the more it sticks and move.
If you turn the AC on while driving, u don't feel the jerk or lag which you would normally feel in any other vehicle.
Final Words Great value for money, Honda has the best technology when it comes to petrol. Low maintenance, I have shelled out only 7k in last 2 yrs., which is pretty low when compared to cars my friends own. Its a thumbs up all the way.

Ride Quality & Handling
Ride quality and handling is fine.
Final Words
In case the car is running fine then its your good luck, but in case of any short coming, the Honda will never be able to rectify the complain. They are foolishly proud of there quality and think the customer is fool complaining about the car. In every schedule service which is after 6 months i always complaint about the AC which has character of frequent tripping. They always adjust its temperature. How come AC temperature needs to be adjusted in every 6 months?
My car met with the accident and my driver door was replaced. Since then the door is a pain. The quality of the door and the paint job done on the door was of so much substandard that the door caught the extreme level of rusting. had the rust was due to improper handling my me, than the rusting would have been on whole vehicle and in my care rest of the body is in top notch condition and the reletively new door is dismantling due to rust. The door which is reletively new as compared to my rest of the car
