I got it from Puchong Showroom just beside IOI Mall. However I was told there are more fast silver units at Sri Kembangan showroom

NICE...Looks like I will be one of the KIMCHI gang...

yeah welcome to the kimchi land soon.. you will not regretting it & i dun coming from Nippon H car haha..This Evening coming doen from CH towards Penang, the smooth gliding down the CH-Spg Pulai is so trailing and tackling every curve at 90km/hr like peanut..Not even my older Cibik FD can do this..well except when I modified to sport suspension but the ride of the modified car was so hard & stiff and this Kimchi did it right wth similar to my heavully modified suspension civic FD but yet stiff soft & comfortable..Passing 3000km mark dy and the power getting better and I almost got back missing pick-up similar to my old ride but wth much better mid-range & hi-end power haha..

OMG...you really poisoned me already....will go to the puchong showroom right after i touchdown in Malaysia....

haha indeed u got poisoned. Anyway, mine already autofoamed (Comfort/ bottom underbody frames)..otherwise, on a stock Sonata, there is still slight vibration and not as superior as Teana & Camry interm of real comfort. Only after autofoamed, the vibration gone & starting & idle no more vibration & thus got the "feeling" haha...The engione also not as refined as Toyota or Nissan as the engine start & during riding is audible. That's the only complain I have on Sonata.

different class la.. sonata D segment, civic C segment, NVH also different lor, even my 2.4 akod smooth sailing that area wot..

When comes to handling no deny due to longer & wider body & harder suspension, it's the best handling ca out there. But due to hard setting it will not be comfortable as Camry & Sonata haha..

On handling & power, Accord>Sonata> Camry
but on comfort it's Camry>Sonata>Accord

No deny on it. However wth abit of Autofoam, Sonata is as good as Camry interm of comfort except the louder than usual engine noise no tnx to the Mitshubishi/Hyundai/Crysler developed Theta II engine

why so quiet?

anyway spotted lots of white sonata at klang, few with daytime running lights on it too

but only one shines out the most those like oem design type , must have cost the owner a lot

Autoworld forum on Sonata is not quiet..probably the title.."Booking List" not interest lotsa ppl haha

BTW, the waiting time getting longer! according to few forumers at autoworld, the AP problem probably the culprit!! Hyundai M'sia running low on AP as Ap following past year sales..Wth the high demand & lack of AP, they are having difficulties to cope up wth the demand

where got? before raya this month, I just helped my biz partner get one , ready stock 2011 car..

Mine also ready stock but ONLY Silver. Silver they imported a lot but lack of demand! Everyone wanted white..That's why the waiting time for white extended to 4mths now..

Just read this and issue on AP on the last 2 posts..well, I'm not sure bcos I also got the car 1 week after booking - silver for sure haha..

Thinking of getting the standard spec 2.0 coz really concerned about the reliability of the sunroof. Afraid that the rubber lining will crack in our weather condition thus will create potential leakage in the long run. What do u guys think?

got 5 yrs warranty mah.

Anyway, FYI, there are minor problems too encountered by owners..such as rattling sunroof - no solution yet, Rattling exhaust pipe - SC started replacing those units affected, scratch brake disc- also replacing done. & also rattling at the boot area- due to loose reverse sensor / fuel cap cable - rectified

However not all having these problems

Well, if that is the case, then 2.0 standard spec it is...even though got warranty, its troublesome to go to and fro a lot of times to get it settle...

check also the spec on the basic model. lotsa items missing i.e sunroof, keyless & push start system, immobiliser, traction controls, electric poer chair & more..These bundled packages already cost >RM10K if you wanna add in yourselve.

Hmmm decision decision...

The 5 years warranty is a 3+2 or 2+3 right? So the remaining + warranty only covers major mechanical parts. I dont think the sunroof is covered.

Your Civic couldnt handle the bends in that area at 90kmph? Are you sure? Those bends were actually designed to handle cars travelling at 85kmph and this was way back in the 1980's. New generation cars would have no issues at all taking them at 90kmph. Even my Vios can take them relatively well (except on rainy days when i rather not take the risk).

See...this is why i will choose the 2.0 standard spec only

Depend on personal skill..If I only can confidently drove Civic at 70km/hr and on the same time can do 90km/hr there meaning handling good liao lor.. I dun like the feeling of buang-buang while going thru those curvy roads..so at 90km/hr and dun feel buang-buang really good liao.. You probably kheng on your Vios or VIOS handling much better than Civic? no idea
