  Fit is the Japan Domestical Model (JDM) name brought in by pararell importers, while jazz is the name brought in by Kah Motors.

  I thought the major different between this 2 models is the country it is manufactured.

  Honda jazz is 1.4 with dsi engine
  
  honda fit with red dots for the 'i' is also 1.4
  
  honda fit with blue dot on the 'i' is 1.5 with V tec engine from only parallel importers.

  Both cars now looked slightly different. Fit got much better looking LED rear light cluster. While jazz's rear still looked the same after a nip & tuck.
  Personally prefer Fit.

  u said it urself, the guy was dumb to sell the car at such a loss. 2nd hand fit nowadays usually depreciate at 5.5k a year. not 10k or 20k so kuah zhang.

  Of course you have to consider the price of Jazz now. 70 - 5.5 = 64.5k. Now Jazz how much? 66k! So how, must low the price to match the current car price. So selling at about 58-60k would be reasonable. But 50K.... that guy either rich, changing bigger cars, or really in need of money.

  depreciation not calculated like dat one lah. the one u talkin is 1st year depreciation and its ALWAYS much higher after factoring in the losses in the interests.

  Then again I am not talking about depreciation, I am just trying to justify the lower than usual selling price. Calculate of depreciation isn't actually practical at all. Last time my friend went over Subaru to calculate his 2 years old lancer's trade-in price. A 20K lose. How many people you see selling their cars at a price that is original less depreciation?

  dats to say he end up with 10k loss a year? not surprising. u apparently quite new to this whole buying selling car thing. when u take a car to a dealer for trade-in in order to buy another car, they definitely makan u jialat jialat for the car wat.
  
  in any case, read back. i was answering mach10's point when he said fit depreciate at 10k a year, which is nonsense. so if are not talking about depreciation, den dunno wat the fish u reply for

  But his topic is about his friend selling Jazz at 50k. So the secondly topic to his post is about the selling price of Jazz. Anyway, Jazz is selling second hand at 50k+/- at sgcarmart too. Once again it is not depreciation that I am talking about. Try to have a open mind!

  i'll give him the benefit of the doubt if he mentioned 1st year depreciation or something remotely close to justify such outrageous deprectiation.
  
  there wasn't.
  
  can't blame me for being focused on the topic now can u? in any case, we are digressing. lets move on.

  You are the one who started it!!
  
  Anyway, isn't that kit a little low? Looks good but in Singapore, the humps and slopes isn't very accommodating.
