I booked my M3 last 2 weeks, and had a deal with my SA to deliver the car on february. (due to the fact that I want a 2012 number plate). My SA called me last 2 days informing me that Mazda and all other Japanese car price increase by 2012. (which is so the very last minute). Mazda car price will increase this week itself about RM3000 to RM5000 for Mazda 3.

Any news from You guys?

Thats what I was told b4. First, I can get the car after Chinese new year. Second, price increase this week itself. My SA confirmed me twice. I had no choose but to make my decision to get the car b4 te price increase or get it next year where the price will be increased about 3 to 5 thousand.

yeah... my friend's 2 months old brand new E class kaput in kajang flood... :/

If you r able to pump to 55l.. I don't think u can even drive to the petrol station in the first place. Haha.. When the refill indicator appear it doesn't mean ur tank is empty.. There are reserves left..

I'll be the proud owner of 2.0 Alluminium Sedan on January. 2 more weeks.

Anybody understand the agony of waiting even only 2 weeks? Hahaha...

Sedan and hatchback only difference is the boot space. GL and Gls only difference are Gls comes with leather and GPS touch screen which is free now as their promotion.

Some say End of next year.. Some say 2013.. Will it be more expensive than the current ?

Yeah it's alreAdy launched in the US and Japan few months ago.. But Malaysia will probably late 2012 or 2013. And hopefully the skyactiv technology won't be more expensive compared to now...

I doubt they will give u any clue.. Lol... They don't wanna destroy their sales by telling you when the new Mazda 3 will launch in Malaysia right? Hahaha..

Just got my M3 2.0 yesterday. It was totally awesome!

I do agree that the auto light sensor kinda sensitive. Evening sun only the lights will turn on already.

I do feel abit of massaging on the acceleration pedal. Not that hard just tiny vibration.

Still no weird sound for me after 4 days of driving. Except for the power stering sound. Turn on ur music and it will drown everything XD

and lastly.. Road noise..

Mazda 3 2.0 Aluminium

Reaching my first 1000km service. Anything I need to pay attention to?

Different preference maybe. So far I've driven and a couple of friends. Except a few talking about lesser leg room and huge dash board. Other than that.. The ride was considerably smooth.

Got mine for 3 weeks. Done my first thousand km service. So far no knocking sound only the electronic sound when turning steering wheel. Even can be hardheard outside of the car. When I switch gear from P, u cab heard the unlocking sound from Ur brake. And the auto close side mirror noise really annoying and loud. Sometimes both left and right don't close evenly haha. Other than that, no knocking noise from anywhere of the car. Yet?

Took my car to G'zox Sunway branch to polish and coating yesterday at 11am. Told me approximately 1 1/2 hours to finish.when they are about done, I went to check my car for the second time and found a paint coating chipped off from my headlanp area. It was at least 1cm in diameter. I asked the superwiser what happened to it, and his staff told him the chip was already there.. I just inspected the car before I sent the car so I was sure it wasn't there. The supervisor didn't look convinced that it was their fault until I found another deep paint scratch at my back door handle. It was at least 5 inches long this time! The superwiser only took some cheap paint to cover the paint chip area and asked if I was satisfied! Of course i was furious and said NO! The colour was not even close to the original!

At last he took it to the car paint shop to touch up the chipped off area. I called up the manager named Thomas and complaint about my dissatisfaction. He seemed not too keen in talking to me and told me its normal these things happened. That was the stupidest thing to say and it didn't make me feel any better. I waited from 11am till 6pm. 7 freaking hours!!! I canceled 4 appointments just to sit there and wait.

The paint job was not even close to perfect. If u look closely u can still see tiny dent. They apply me free anti rain repellent as their compensation. Anti rain repellent? I can even apply it myself!

The boss didn't even call back to ask if I'm satisfied and if anything is okay at my side. I took my car for them expecting them to do a good job detailing my car in the end they made it worse and did nothing to compensate me for my 7hours!!!

G'zox Sunway Branch gave me and my car the worst service even. I would suggest you guys to think twice before sending ur beloved car for them to handle.

One more thing I found out this morning, where there's a tiny dent on the silver panel on the passenger side. Please do not bring your car to G'zox if you value your car.

Been driving a month.. No sound.... Yet...

I reached 175km/h on MEX highway yesterday and the steering wheel still firm and no vibration on either pedal. But kinda bumpy for the passenger side. Really fun to drive car!! zoom zoom....!

I installed a pedal lock without touching the electronic wiring.

It was raining and I drove over a puddle of water. When I reached y barking space, I heard the was a dragging sound under my front bumper. I went to check and found that the plastic panel right below the fog lamp bumper came out and bent over. I conclude it wad the water that pushed the plastic panel and bent it. Anything like this happened? S it covered under warranty?
