Just called my SA requesting for update. He said that need to wait for bank to disburse the money to them first before releasing the car.

He mentioned that I have to wait for few days since the bank has a number of queue to be fulfilled.

I don't know if he's BS'ing me, since this is my first time buying a car. So I need some confirmation from experienced people.

Nop.. All I can say it is all based on judgement. I will usually leave ample space & not force my way through.

I don't think you can request as soon as you get your car. Remember, it is not rusty when you get your car. Try filing a complain during the 1000km service & they will respray it for you.

Collecting the car? I didn't check much. If there's anything wrong, you can complain during the 1000km service. Anyway, it's good to follow the checklist.

Hi guys, im planning to fix sun shade for my new City. Any good quality custom made ones for our city?

but if got anything not working, and dun demand for repair/change parts etc, later may be very troublesome rite? especially comestic wise, later they claim u are the one who cause it how?

besides, the car assigned to u liao, even u are not happy during the day of collection, also cannot change rite???

why go take the car? Have it delivered to your door step.

My agent is delivering the car to me tonight...

Hehe...me faster than you!! From order to take car, less than 2 weeks. Bank loan actually can be quite fast. Depending on whether that person's record is with bank negara. If you have purchase house or car before then bank negara will have your record and they can easily check. Also credit card records.

what is your car reg number edi..
wtt?

WTW 5xx

pls la u what spec car? E or S? S confirmed fast one la, nobody wants S one....

deliver car to me? i would rather not...... why let other ppl drive ur car, ur SA can take ur car go and drive around and then drive to ur house, i think u better check the millage, u may be surprised.....

collect at the showroom, anything wrong, can demand for service or complain to the boss etc...... deliver to ur house liao, u got no choice must accept........u tot it is really good idea....haha

Not to be mean .. but do u realise u have some issues ? lolx

to me, S spec is still honda city afterall, we're a great honda city family =)

+1...Kiasu ppl work in Singapore mah. Famous edi 1. I really cannot believe he already below 30 years old lo. Summore 10 yrs no drive dim. Money not an issue ya??
