Welcome..bruxxthrill to teana family..

Interior wit beige color is hard to maintain but it is very nice and have more prestigious look from outside...

Yeah, if dirty oledi just sent it to car spa....

Normally, when i almost reach empty tank which the on board display shows around 47 km left... I will pump in the petrol by letting it to stop automatically which is around rm 110..

Bro Lui,

I have to agree with you somehow. Black is very common. In fact, my current car comes with black / grey interior colour but after 3 years driving it, it still look very new. Even the used car dealer also was a bit shocked when he saw the condition of my car. Good purchase for him. I am on the losing end. Sigh.

Beige or brown is not so common, kinda' special, elegant - yes and it somehow makes the interior more spacious compare to black interior. So hell to it, beige it is!

However, some of my friends said the car look uncle-ish. I am 32 this year, look young on the outside; hope to also look the same (preferably younger) when driving a Teana. Haha. But I don't really bother their feedback since I chose Teana for its comfort (I love driving), not for racing whatsoever.

When r u getting your car anyway? I am getting mine end of next week.

Bro Ar888,

Leather strap steering? The 2.0 version does not come with leather strap steering. Did you do it on your own?

yeah 2L spec no leather and even 2.5 is not full leather, just some fake wood printing + leather.
I think hard to install ownself cos need to take out steering.. anyway I got their supplier to arrange n wrap it for me before I took the car. a special one-off install.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
as for the age, wah still young drive unkerish teana.. ?? lol.. that's why I had to put 19in rims.. to make it look VIP-ish looks, and not too unker..

anyway, welcome ..

what car color did you choose?

I was contemplating between Silver & Blue-Grey colour. Finally, I went for Silver - a bit safe but it make the car look larger. My 10 cent opinion.

yup light color larger, black color smaller..

also if the curves are there then light color will accentuate it more

similarly if the curves are not so nice or very plain or looks outdated like those old german saloons, then dark or black will be more suited..

Yeah, however, the chrome grill at the front and side may not be so visible as darker colour. I assume yours is silver too.

then you should go and import the "sport" grille.. it's darken front horizontal slats..

wow!! the thread is hav more and more teana owners!!
great!!
i don like the silver on tis car.. looks.. normal.. n the chrome grill n stuff doesnt stand out..
or tint ur glass darker might helps.. =)

I have another concern. I booked the comfort version and added rm2k for leather upholstery, quoted by the SA. My concern is whether the leather is actually full leather or half leather upholstery. Half leather means that the areas which are touching our body would be full leather whereas those which are not (i.e. side of the seats) would be PVC. What do you think? Do you think he would cheat? Some SA could be tricky at times, mine has a look of one (hopefully I'm wrong).

Yeah, the leather is not a full leather. Some part of it are pvc. This is what the SA told me

Welcome to the Teana family.

The luxury version also do not have full leather. It's half leather and half pvc like what you describe. It's only a slight difference in terms of pricing between the comfort and luxury. Why picked the comfort?

Sound impressive leh... mind to share some pictures and tell us how much it cost?
I believe you wrap it urself at 3rd party shops right? I like thick steering wheel also, feel so luxury

Added on October 22, 2011, 11:51 amI'm 29 this year, so let us make the J32 a younger car instead of Uncle's car
The SA said hopefully on the Wed or Thur, but i ask for Depavali because i'm off that day. And i can test my car on the empty KL street.
When and where did you place your order, bro?

Added on October 22, 2011, 11:54 amBro ar188, I like VIP style on a D-Segment bulky cars too.
Did you lowered your car with your 19" rim? If not, will the J32 looks tall with the 19" rim with stock rims?

Thanks bro. I chose Comfort as i didnt want to have the front sensor. It can get pretty annoying at times, i mean the sound of it. And now, since i found it is half leather, i will collect back RM2K from the SA to get the interior upholstered with DK full leather at a special price instead.

I booked last Monday at Kota Damansara. Waiting period is nearly 2 weeks. How long have you waited since you place the booking? Yeah, can go and visit some Indian friends with Teana, got style...

Bro, its true to get annoying when the sound keep on beeping. Actually, there is a button on ur rigt side of steering wheel which u can turn it off easily..

Oh is it, didnt know that. Anyway its ok, must always be happy with ur purchase. Most importanly, its a Teana.

I didn't use the front sensor and scratch the bottom front bumper twice. "Sakit hati" for a few days. Also, I parked under the mango tree and the fruit juice drip and left a stain on the bonnet. Another "sakit hati". Tried to polish off but unsuccessful.

Sometimes when going over potholes the bumps are very hard, like metal against metal. Anyone have the same experience?

Bro, did u do any coating on ur teana? If yes, then those juice drip stain should be easily clean off...

I cant hear any noise when i pass over road bump...soft and silent...

Unfortunately no, wasn't aware of this when I took the car. Also don't know it is available in JB. If not, may have to drive to KL to do.
