Bro Mat,

What is the chasis number onwards need to do the ECU remapping? For mine chasis number, it start with 1623.

Another question? from the CFE engine itself, where is the engine number located? my SA couldn't find the engine number for verification.

This is why i delayed my bank loan.hopefully i get preve that have been remapped ecu,and all other things fixed predelivery already.

About that drag race,think my blm manual can also beat preve,coz i put exhaust n k&n filter n coz manual is very2 good in torque efficiency.shit miss my blm.

I don mind at all.getting old n no more fast furious for me.

well nothing beats driving a car that is stil new and uncommon on d road. d feeling when ppl give thumbs up while seein ur car. got it a few times ytdy while driving. d feeling when ppl take pics of ur car plus peeking into ur car while parked. its just magical at d moment.

unfortunately with the affordable price tag, its gonna be common like hell. so y nt enjoy the minutes of fame while u still can wink.gif

LOL! U have just shoot down my willingness to change to Red if available..  mega_shok.gif

Hehehe.. Nonetheless, if the Chassis No. is 3+++ then it supposed to be 2nd batch already thus it should be ok. Hehehe

personally, i feel white is the best. makes the car look big and strong. nxt is silver, this color makes the car look expensive and classy. but also it has the uncle look. followed by brown. i tink red makes the car look cheap, like saga FLX. (no offence to saga owners smile.gif blue lagoon is subjective though, it looks great in pics but in real life, not that easy on the eyes.

White > Silver > Brown > Black > Red > Blue

I drive the car for one week plus,...  until yesterday, the fuel consumption is always 11.9 - 13.5/100KM...  My heart is really crying but still need to convince myself that it is because the car is new and not yet go for first service...

Yesterday, I read the Preve topic in Chinese.cari.com.my.  I realized that it can be due to my way of driving.  Heavy foot??? In fact, I didn't really driving it like a sport car?!!!  The rpm is seldom more than 2300 !!!!

This morning, I reset the fuel consumption counter and try to drive the car as gentle as possible by not having rpm more than 2000.  I keep looking at the Instant indicator.  When it is moving from stand still, it is consuming around 40++ to 50++/100km.  When it reach 5th gear and above, the number is dropping signifinatly to 17-20plus per 100KM.  The nice one is starting 6th gear.
Suprisingly, the average fuel consumption is around 9.5 - 11.??/100km.  This is first time the fuel consumption is lower than 10/100km

...

normal bro. my fuel meter shows half and mileage done is 130km. so half tank is 130km only sweat.gif quite alot. average is 14l/100km. and i always drive at 2k rpm. never tekan at all. hope fuel consumption will get better after service.

Just to update a bit on my FC.
Previously rm60 only go for 196km with 54km to zero. So about 250km for rm60, 20% highway 80% crawling.
Currently travelled for 590km and average fc is shown as 11.3l/100km. Average speed is 30km/h (even tho i already highway to melaka and back, so u know my crawling every morning).

Btw how u guys see the geran? I tot geran is at bank can only take back after few years?

Talk about Irony...

Just when I lost the spirit so on so forth with this car manufacturer, the admin assistant in my SA's showroom have just called me.. Claiming that she and all the staff as well as the branch manager have been pushing the allocation unit to get my White CFE the soonest possible.

From the sound of it, she sincerely apologize for the delay for so many times and kept saying she's on leave yesterday thus cannot contact me yesterday. This confirms that she's referring to the email that I sent to i-Care yetserday. According to her, the demand of CFE variant is so high (Yesterday's news already  yawn.gif ) thus even among the branch they are competing to secure the car to be given to their customer. When asked whether her place have been delivering the CFE one or not, she claimed only 2 have been successfully delivered to customer which is Black and Red. She have the iAFM-CVT ready stock for at least 3 units with her now but CFE is yet to received in this week.

I asked her again to double confirm that whether can she give me my chassis number by this Friday she repeatedly say she's sorry and cannot promise me but assure me that my name is the next receiver of CFE on their list.

Well, gonna see till Friday then. Though she didn't promise but my second email has already been written up. :sigh:
*
sometimes u have to gv this ppl some chance lar. as we all know CFE stock is scarce so maybe there is a real stock problem. its best u just follow up. like what the prvious forummer said, if honda means u guys willing to wait sampai 4/5mths but proton u guys so fast to pounce. if u rush them, might have defect plak.
