My first car, the new Honda City 2009, arrived just before Chinese New Year 2009. It has been over a month now and it has done its first service.

Here is it, my very first car — Honda City 2009. I love its “transformer-like” front.

The lucky number

I bid the license plate for RM1,000. The lucky number is chosen by my dad, but It sounds “One Night One Night” in English or “Play Milk Play Milk” in Chinese…

Talking about the lucky number, my friend bought the number at 4D for over a month and still no luck and started blaming me, the owner. Frankly speaking, even I myself don’t think the number will strike 4D!

Got a car? Time to spend more!

When you buy a car, you are not only spending on the car price but also more. I spend RM350 to install an additional security brake lock. RM120 for the interior carpet. Plus, RM750 to tint my car.

I would spend RM85 to install the door visor. Modulo full bodykit package? Hmm.. Maybe next time. I don’t think it is wise to spend RM5K to make your Honda City look slightly different. If there is a cheaper bodykit, I might consider again.

Finally, I decided to buy the 1st car in my life! Yesterday I booked the new Honda City 2009, which will be available in Malaysia at the end of 2008.

The Honda City 2009 priced at around RM90,000. The car’s refundable booking fee is RM2,000. There are 5 colors available, if I remember correctly: gold, silver, black, blue, and “polished metal metalic” (like gray).

I picked blue because it is special and unique. Honda City 2009 is the first Honda car with the color. For your information, there is NO red color Honda City 2009 in Malaysia.

I have a driving license 10 years ago, but I never drive a car since then. I will need some practices of driving before receiving my Honda City 2009.

For the past years, my friends and family have been fetching me here and there. I owe them too much. It is my turn to be their driver to pay them back. Also, many friends are looking forward to sit in my car.
