Rims can be painted but make sure the shop knows what needs to be done as the surface of the ori rims needs to be sanded off else the paint won't be attached. smile.gif

White has been hard for me to maintain while i find the aluminium really appealing on the m3, captures light and reflection more attractively.

How about taking the car for a spin? Anyhow, if the criteria meets your valuation then why not? There is only so much "convincing" we can do for you, i think it's more about you convincing yourself icon_rolleyes.gif Just don't forget the warranty period is almost over since it's a 2009 car. So the best on your purchase thumbup.gif

If you can accept it, you could use a FM modulator, there is a discussion here:

Just now suddenly the car alarm was triggered by itself. I dont know which button to press, so just pressed the unlock and lock button. Luckily it works. There is a small button between the unlock and lock button, what is that button for?

Anyone can assist how to turn off the car alarm if it was triggered?

Then how to unfold the rear seat...i saw 3 buttons there but couldnt press it. And they are different from what were indicated in the manual.

hi guys...since many of u hv alrdy driven M3 for long...i need some feedback on the car regarding maintenance, common problems, things u dun like, engine/gearbox performance...i hv juz test driven 2.0L sedan (which i consider getting) this morning and here is my opinion on the car:

1. although it falls into performance car category, i personally dun feel like it is one...reason is the pick up power isn't all that adrenaline rushing...the wow factor isn't there..
2. handling, interior gadgets and overall features are above average compare with other same segment car...
3. cabin and boot space is average...but the driver and left passenger "cockpit" design makes me feel i'm sitting in tight confined place...this is due to the middle part are totally 1 piece "divider" which spans from the dashboard till the armrest...
4. comfort and NVH not really good...feels bumpy since doesn't soak up small bumps and uneven roads well...quite loud tire noise although not as loud as my myvi...but understandable coz it's more on performance...

so what do u think?any other comments or views u guys hv?juz focus on maintenance..common problems...things u dun like...engine and gearbox performance

thx alot biggrin.gif

hi there...

suddenly feels like writing whistling.gif, i will answer ur wonder as a 4 months owner 2.0 M3 thumbup.gif

1. agreed, the engine doesn't have wow factor as civic let alone 308 turbo, so i always press 'down' on the paddleshift into 3rd or even 2nd gear and then the surge is shocking.gif
2. handling is M3 forte along with its siblings ford focus, agreed with the rest of ur statement
3. also agree that space is average, not much can do here if it's ur 1st priority
5. noise absorption is better than civic (from my exp), even drive at 170 wind noise is quite minimal... ride comfort i think is greatly affected by the 45 series tyre, suspension is good in absorbing bumps but not much help from tyre so making it quite hard, but not that jarring... M3 1.6 is using 55 series i guess, should have much better ride

my other comments?
- i wish the stock radio has RDS function (my previous waja got one - stock!!)
- the auto lights on function shouldn't be as sensitive (even at 3 pm the lights do switch ON!!)
- gear changes can be felt (although still minimal) now at 12000 km compared to during new
- steering feedback from road is very good even for a little bumps, but too good sometimes driving at 120km/h also feel not stable
- can't think anymore

but after comparing with other C segment (performance, FC, space, handling, features), i can say Mazda 3 rockk!!!! thumbup.gif thumbup.gif rclxms.gif

My feedback about Mazda 3 after around 2 months driving it:

1. Handling: Love the handling very much. According to many forumners, it's handling is one of the best comparing to the cars from the same segment, for example: Civic.

2. Very loud tire noise. It's very noisy when your car goes over sandy, "pecah pecah" roads. You can hear clearly the tiny particles like rocks and sands knocking your "mud guard" or tyre area.

3. Pick up is not as good as what we would have expected from a 120k car. According to fellow members, this can be solved by installing the K&N air filter. Pick up is better after using it. I can't give any comments about this cuz I havent install one myself yet. Am planning to install it after my 10k service hmm.gif Bro Jun Loong is selling them thumbup.gif

4. I feel quite comfortable driving M3, maybe it's due to the fact that I have been driving myvi manual 1.0 for the past 4 years. I feel comfortable driving long distance, like the seats, like the handling, the speed... I didnt drive many other cars before so I can't compare with others. I just like my Mazda 3 tongue.gif
