Bought the M2 R-Spec Metropolitan Gray colour for 9 days now, almost reaching the 1000KM run-in mark.

Hope to see more fellow M2's on the road, anyone know if there's any M2 club in Malaysia?

Hi Delvin,

Looking forward to be part of the official M2 club
It'll be an awesome sight with an all M2 convoy

Am also interested in the new bodykit, do post some pics if possible. Thanks.

will post some pics soon

Nope, coz the standard body kit not mean enough.. hope to get one later.

Found a problem with my M2 sedan, when raining or washing the car water will slip into the outer brake glass cover.

Bermaz customer service have agreed to replace both brake lights, do check your M2 carefully for this matter.

Ya just wanted other M2 owners to know about it.

Hopefully the official M2 club will be formed soon, then we can all drive around in our M2s

There's one thing I noticed when driving at speed above 100km/h, there's some kind of stange smell coming thru the vent and I can't make out what is it, the smell is not unbearable and it comes and goes within a minute, but the smell is always there when I speed.

Any M2 owners out there experiencing this strange phenomenon?
Any ideas what causes the stange smell?

The M2 does not come with alarm system, it's only the keyless entry system and immobilizer system installed, that means if you duplicate your car key, you won't be able to start the car coz the original key has a microchip hidden inside, when you insert the correct key into the ignition slot the immobilizer will disable.

I'm not sure whether it will void your warranty if you go and install an alarm system, better check with your sa.

BTW, there's a TT for Mazda owners this coming Sunday at Putrajaya, you can check out their website at http://www.mazdaownerzclub.com/news.php
It's my first time attending a Mazda TT in my new M2, hope to see more M2s there this Sunday.

I'm driving the R spec, driving experience wise as leinnz had mentioned, it's a bit rocky when you're driving. But cornering is superb even at high speed, the car does not tilt sideway much in the corners.

Tyre pressure plays a big role for the R spec, especially since it comes with 195/45 R16 tyres. IMO 30 psi is recommended for the front after testing it with different psi on the road.

rought estimate is 12.4km per liter before my 1st service, should be better now after 2000km on the ODO, shall monitor the mileage for another 2 top-ups and post the readings here.

The short antenna is kinda awkward looking... but some of the body kits are awesome on a hatchback

A small gathering of Mazdas last Sunday...
there's M2s, M3s, M5s, M6s & MPC

We should plan an all M2s gathering sometime

I'm starting to wonder why everyone else M2 is taking so long, as mine only took 2 weeks... maybe I'm unfortunate to have taken a test car...

I booked mine during the launch in April, at that time SA told me need to wait 1 month but car came early?...
well hopefully it's new

I heard many friends say RON97 actually has better ringgit to mileage ratio, as you need less rev to accelerate and over taking.

Have switched to RON97 since Monday, will see how it goes on the results.

Anyone knows where to find this type of front chin spoiler?

Changing the panel will void your warranty, have checked with Bermaz.
