  i find that VIOS very crampy.. tried out CITY...very spacious... back seat somemore can fold up or down fully... v spacious..
  
  have tried the 7-speed techniology... damn shiok... .. really can cheong very fast from start... cant imagine incorporatewith vtec engine...

  Lancer uses the Continuos Variable Trans (CVT)... That effectively means that its actually using one gear to propel its chasis as compared to other cars like Toyota which has four distinct gears for power at low and speed at high... Good thing about CVT is that there's no shift shock... Smooth ride in other words but no power

  Does any1 nou bout suspension? Here's wat VIOS, City and Lancer has for their suspension
  
  VIOS
  front - McPherson Strut with Stabilizer
  rear - Torsion Beam with Stabilizer
  
  City
  front - Independent Macpherson Strut with coil spring and stabilizer
  rear - H-shape torsion beam
  
  Lancer
  front - MacPherson Strut, coil springs with stabiliser bar
  rear - Multi-link
  
  Need some guidance on these.

  i would feel that the honda city would be a better choice... it saves more fuel (not sure if it is more powerful) but i think it accelerates faster than the mit. lancer... THe only bad thing abt mit. lancer is its reputation... callbacks.....and stalling on the road...... so honda city would be a better buy.. oh forgot to add.... honda city is more spacious and more solid than the mit. lancer
