I only managed to see the white color from a far but yeah, it seems a bit creamy. HQ's test drive unit for 2.0 is grey color.

Hey bro,I too booked the 1.6. However I am concerned about the reliability issues on this engine. Although I heard various mods were done but I'm unable to verify any of it. So I am thinking of switching to the NA. Waht's your take!

2.0
1. kejusan
2. Poyoguy - blue

Turbo
1.SKYjack - blue
2. sbd - blue

Just got SMS from my SA to pay balance on down payment. Car wil be ready for delivery this week. Oooooooh really excited! For me,I couldn't decide between the bronze and blue. Finally decided on the blue cos the leather seats matched better with the blue. The 4 of us here all blue,I understand kejusan also booked blue.kevinboey list yours.

Pay all the down payment yesterday and have chat with my SA. Take CS 85 tint from Ray Tech Thickness = 5.0 mil
VLT = 58, VLR = 12, UVR = 99, IRR = 85 (all in %) for RM1900
Is it good enough?

windscreen not safety type but the characteristic is same as above. He said if use the security one, the sight will be blur. 5 working day to get the car. 

Finally, had my chance for the test drive after missing the test drive appt for a couple of weekends. Had the 408T from the Puchong Nasim branch. The SA was very friendly but he know nuts about his product and he told me he has been selling cars for 20+ years. Ex-Proton, Toyota, etc. Ha ha ha...

The test drive was from the Nasim show room near IOI Mall, Puchong. Down to Kesas and U-turn half-way before reaching the Shell gas station on the Kesas highway.

The pick-up has the pull-back feeling, engine is very responsive, especially on overtaking cars on the crowded highway, probably one of the best in his class. Gear shifting was very smooth, thanks to the 6-speeder. The road handling is good, I don't feel any body roll but maybe the ride was too short and KESAS does not have a bending corner like the MEX highway, especially in between the Sri Petaling exit and the Bukit Jalil stadium, that I could really test the road handling.

The cabin feels spacey. the leather seats gave it a more classy look. My HM who is about 5ft9in, says the seats are comfortably position, and knee room the best, again, in it's class. The dashboard and interior is not too cheapo looking, and some of the chrome look gave it a more classy feel and the material is definitely not all hard plastic.

The car comes with speed-control autolock, manual and auto power fold mirror, the sound (radio+CD) was decent, the control was easy for me enough (I am pretty tech-savvy), both on the HU and on the steering wheel. The boot size is deep and large for its class.

For me, I brought along a 16GB NTFS and 2GB FAT32 USB stick with the same set of MP3 and WMA songs (less than 30 songs). The HU cannot detect!!!    Due to time limitation, does not have chance to test the Bluetooth pairing for hands-free calls or play songs. I also haven't got time to check to see if got or not or where the AUX port is located.

The side mirror is too small for my liking, so I could miss some blind spots. My HM says the ride was firm at the back and she could feel the road. Driver side I am used to a firm handling, so I don't feel it much. Too bad they couldn't have flat floor on the back row.

On the HU, besides lacking a Reverse Cam+DVD player, I can only see the ciggie lighter port(?) next to the hand-brake, and I can't seem to locate another 12V port. Problem is if I need to charge an external GPS and SmartPhone, surely this is a problem. Ya, ya I can put GPS into SmartPhone, but if you have 2 - 3 devices that need charging? Perhaps, there is another 12V port somewhere in the car 

Lastly, the NVH. I have to admit, I have been in cars with better NVH, as even when I off the radio, I can still detect quite of bit of wind and road noise. Do I need after-market solution like AutoFoam to enhance the NVH? The SA show me a (photostat) picture of RC+GPS+AVN add-on option by "supposedly" Naza authorized accessories supplier, NZ Galaxy, saying it will cost about RM3K++ but internal meeting to decide whether it is official or not later. Warranty dunno yet. What a sales guy!

For me, I would rate it as a "BUY" category. I am a family guy, who is in the sales line and I need something more "mature" looking car, preferably conti, with performance, tech, space and within reasonable budget. The 408T fits most of it. On the exterior, I doubt many people (apart from hard-core basher) would consider the front ugly looking. On the back, it is plain and unexciting but I can live with it, much better that the 207

I can see why for singles, young yuppies or young couples, the 408 is not your cup of tea. 2nd hand value, FC and maint cost is admittedly, not on the winning side. If the facelift 308 maintain the old grille face but with the rest of the other features add-on, plus old price, I feel this will be very irresistible to a lot of people. Of course for me, 2608mm vs 2710mm wheelbase is still a big factor for me to consider.

All comments are by yours truly, and in no way should taken into consideration when buying your dream car. Buy what you like, you will be driving it. If you like, you buy. If not, look somewhere else 

Cool! Your iPhone running what IOS? Android firmware version? How did you get the USB to work? When I put both my USB sticks in (one after the after), I keep having the hourglass spinning and spinning for more than 1 minute   

What GB size is your USB? File format (e.g. NTFS, FATXX?) You playing MP3 and/or WMA files?

The HU can detect the titles and stats of the songs? How's the sound quality?

Bro did u strolling around ss2 last week? I saw a 408 prince white at ss2 area ...so sexy and drooling
