Going to book 1.6 HS tomorrow at Puchong showroom next to IOI Mall. Any bad experience there? Also, how is the waiting period now? Been told need to wait for about 2.5 month by the SA.

My advise is to call SD careline to confirm your SA's promise.
If it is ex-stock, you should get your car sooner (just paper work).

I have been waiting for my car since Sep 2012.

Talked to Hyundai's CS today.
There will be 8 different features for new Elantra.

1) Rear fog lamp - CS mentioned "fog lamp", could be "tail light".
2) Tail light multi function switch.
3) Front bumper - europe type license plate.
4) Headlamp additional levelling device - for different light intensity setting?
5) Seat belt reminder.
6) Power window lock - even if this is on, driver's window won't be locked; whereas previously will be locked.
7) Front floor carpet with hook - not sure for driver only or both driver and co-driver.
8) Vechicle number below front wind screen - not too sure what it is; probably sticker that can be removed.

CS can't clearly describe some features as just read from paper.
Hope this helps.
Pls help to elaborate if you know.

I am a little confuse over the "2013" build/model rclxub.gif . Does it refers to the "facelift" model or just referring to the manufacturing date?
Where does above features fit in?

If not mistaken, "2013" build/model means both manufacturing date falls in year 2013 and has the "facelift" fits in.

Ok. Thanks for the info. thumbup.gif Will check with my SA whether my booking come with these features. The SA said next week i can get the car.
So, have you gotten yours yet?

Elantra "Facelift" in Malaysia, it's all the compilation of complaints which the existing owners voiced out to SD on the general Hotline smile.gif now that they have heard our voice, they implemented and corrected all of them in the "Facelift" Model.

As for ELantra MD "2013" model, that has not come to Malaysia YET. It has far more major upgrades like projector headlamps, darker chrome in the headlamp, CCFL tail lights and etc. Major differences if you may call it.

thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif so yup facelift model sounds good enough . 2013 model wont come to bolehland so fast, you need see SD mood for it.

Thanks for the explanation. notworthy.gif Got it now.

I ask the SA, he dare not say what are the new features because he has not seen it yet (play safe). But mine is stated on the paper to be "Tahun dibuat - 2013".

Too bad you can't 'screw' your SA... May be by waiting a bit longer, you will get the "Facelift" model.... nod.gif

Inspected my car in the workshop. Let me confirm the above:

1) - Yes - the full tail light
2) - Yes
3) - Can't tell the difference since i can't remember how the 'older' elantra looks like
4) - Yes - to adjust the vertical angle of the light
5) - Yes
6) - Yes
7) - Yes - both driver & co-driver
8) - Yes - it shows the chassis number

Wanted to install one for my new elantra but the shop say no stock. I figure then it is good for me check out the price for the lock. Anyone is kind enough to share the price info?

I booked a 1.6 high spec back in November.

Any idea when I can get it?

I regret booking this car cause it's taking way too long.

Call up SD careline and get your Q# (they will tell you the estimated delivery date). At the same time, starts to put pressure on your SA. Sometimes, they will order more stocks which can be allocated to you earlier than SD's estimated delivery date.

I have the same feeling but for me, it is worth waiting. I booked since September, 2012 and i will be getting my car by end of this week (keeping my finger cross... ) sweat.gif

Thanks for the tip.

Waaa....

So if my SA doesn't order many, does that mean they will get the stocks last?

Not sure how the distribution is managed.
For my case, when i called SD, the EDD for my car is in April. doh.gif
To be in more control, make sure your Q# is dropping consistently each time you call up. At the same time, 'screw' your SA once in a while. (unless you are like some of us whom does not have the privilege to do that (no pun intended) rolleyes.gif )
