Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

@Sujith: I guess you should talk to the dealer candidly and ask to postpone delivery to a date which best suits your requirement.
had a talk with driving school sir..he gave me thumbs up to teach me in 1 month [:D]

oh..and thanks for your first post in the thread ,just for me. Appreciate it sir [:)]

Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

Peninsular Honda eh... Me too booked from Its branch in Trivandrum. Do you know what is your position in the waiting list for jazz at Ekm ?
Hi Akhil, do you know your current waiting position ? Then did Ajith confirm your expected delivery time ? Any news from them about select/ X models ? I think no one has canceled so far..... 8-10 cars per month for those who booked from EKM & Tvm right ?

I was 6 till now.Yesterday Ajith called me and informed that they will get few Select's next month, to be sent from last of this month.He offered me a white select. he said the guy who booked it had already bought another car due to terrible waiting and that he might(will) cancel the booking. But,since we have waited this long, we thought it would be better to wait till April for the X. So, i think i have moved to 5. I will call up Peninsular H.O. by March end to confirm this. Ajith said he has no idea when they will get X. Someone in another post told me that he got info that Honda will start full swing production of X only in April. Lets see. Anyways, we expect in April. Hope it wont get delayed again. Frustrated with this waiting.[anger]

Then it will be a good news for those who booked select including me, but not sure if any change in waiting lists, But according to news Honda plant has the capability of clearing all the backlogs by March 2012, atleast if they produce average of 400 units per day, totals cars they produce will exceed 16K by march end. Hope we all should come in that first 16K as we booked in 2011 sep-nov, correct right ? Nothing is concrete when they talk about Jazz Model, but for Brio & city dealers started advertising and promising delivery at the earliest by March.

Honda India's official page on Facebook says tht they will clear all brio backlogs by March. But, they announced that all jazz backlogs will be cleared by June. Regarding this,many asked violently why slowdown for jazz .So, i asked this to Ajith too.. He said Honda's profit from selling jazz is very low now. So, what their plan is , to manufacture jazz in limited volumes say 1000-1500 units/month so that they can make more profit by selleung more of Brio's and City. Dunno if this info s real. But, Honda's fb page said that since jazz is an international product, the availability of parts to India is limited compared to City and brio, which are present only in fewer countries. So, they can produce only limited no.s. Every month. So, i thibk April-May is the time to get your jazz.

he gave me a counting between 65-70..which i am sure is to boast off about the demand. And when we try to press on the button of emergency.. the count comes to 5-10 [:)] its all in "theory of good salesman " .

well since production has started..i would like car only when its parts are also easily available.. or else as one friend of mine in this thread has a waiting notice of 6 months to replace his scratched car door .

and moreover honda knows it has to deliver inorder to compete in market. They cant keep us waiting for long especialy with "just petrol engine cars" tht honda sells . [umm..even this waiting is sweet..keep fantasizing abt car till then?? ]

Yep. The waiting may seem to be sweet in the beginning. Craving to get the call from dealer saying "Your car has been dispatched".[;)] But, it will last only for a few weeks. Then, you will be fed up with the horrible waiting. Initially, my wait was 3months and i was happy. But, then it became 6-7. [anger]

Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

Hey, also heard like the sourcing from china/Japan not worth for Honda India after the massive price cut, When they made the price cut, no one expected the flood and they thought they will get more profit if they source parts from Thailand and sell Jazz in volumes. Now all the plans affected. So I think Honda will try to keep the production minimum for jazz and once the Thailand starts giving parts, they will ramp up production and they will get the profit which was expected at the time of price cut.

company has the right to do changes in car price any time,irrespective of booking date. The price is accounted as per on date of delivery by rules(from honda dealer i has confirmed) . And being a corporate that it is, HONDA will never cheat on its share holders and wont compromise on "PROFITS" subsequently the "QUALITY" for which toyota n honda is known for. so just relax . They would rather hike price if its not feasible.

The spy shot picture that you see below is claimed to be the new Honda Jazz (2011 Model), posted by Yash Bhatia on NDTV Facebook fan page. From the image, it looks as if the car was spotted in Noida (where Honda’s factory is located). Apparently, there doesn’t seem to be any major changes on the body structure, and chances are that it could possibly be a mild facelift version in an attempt to revive the dull sales of this car.

i personally still think the new Maruti Swift is a better car !

Akhil you are absolutely right, even Pinnacle Honda Kolkata said the same thing when I generally asked them about Jazz bookings/deliveries. He said specifically that Honda wants to keep jazz as an exclusive product as compared to the Brio or even city. Being an international product Jazz ha demand from various markets which Honda needs to serve. Whereas Brio & city are made for India/thailand cars, which they are concentrating on. I feel good hearing this as a Jazz owner, cause I want my car to be exclusive & not a mass market product...the reason why I preferred it over the fabia, i20 & swift!!!

Cheers

Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

this little sedan is not offered in a diesel option and its competitors have diesel variant. In a market where diesel is cheaper than petrol and gains advantage every now and then with a petrol price hike, a petrol car outselling the diesel rivals certainly talks volumes of Honda’s brand pull.
thing to be proud off for a jazz owner [cheers]
