Yup, heard the 2005 Sunny is based on the Meagane platform. You
can go to Nissan Japan website and take a look. It's not under
Sunny or Sentra badge but start with a Txxx..anyway looks boxy and
looks like Suzuki Liana styling. The look is going to invite
critics. Either you love it or hate it.
Present Sunny FC is quite bad, so take note. They are clearing
stock and don't be surprised they intro the new Sunny in 2 months
time.
Go test drive the Vios and City. Vios has a conservative setup and
will perform what you would normally expects. It has disc all round
and good pickup. Airbags, power steering all standard but cabin a
class lower. The City is packed with some high tech stuff like CVT
and Steermatic and of course the ultra seat. Latest City equipped
with vtec engine but iSDSI is the one for fuel efficency. Price
wise, City is a few thousand more expensive but you get better
appointed cabin and a 500 litres boot.
Other cars you can consider is the Jazz (cute and funky),
Colt(trendy) and Toyota IST or for the price you are paying for
City, you can get a Sonata but its a 2 litre so FC is a major
concern here.
