hi! barrywcb kor, thanks for "reporting" fuel consumption and it is really useful information for the potential buyers smile.gif

May I know on the Iddling Stop thing. The engine will idle upon the car stop and the aircond somewhat will be blowing the air only right? May I know if this can be overwrite? ie. normal aircond blowing?

I have been hearing conflicting answers from 2 different SA so confusing la.

Bewteen, I booked a white liao and the delivery time is 2 1/2 months. long wait.....

Thanks for the reply, Barrywcb kor!!!

I just can't wait for the car brows.gif like you said, worth waiting for.

On the other hand, anyone change the stock tyre of 195-60-16 to 215-60-16? advisable for this size?

The current size looks small so gatal to change la nod.gif

Any owner done tinting? mine to share which brand and the best price you paid? smile.gif

I am planning to go for V-Kool elite as the glass area is rather big for the car.

Indeed, Serena  is a popular car in Hong Kong and Japan.  Just hope that TCM would bring in the Impulse Kits or Riders Kits soon. It actually make the car looks much sporty and nice to drive, and become the attention point.

Here's some of the pic that actually make the car looks so difference:

Impulse Kit:

Kenstyles:

If anyone has managed to find this accessories in Malaysia, please help to post it.

Yup!! You are right!! I noted that there are so many on the road in HK rclxms.gif

It is a fight of mid range MPV with Honda StepWGN. But Serena looks nicer brows.gif (my opinion lah!!)

Well....the date is immediately confirmed once the proper paper work is ready (loan, trade in car document). It depends on the location that u booked it. And, of course, don't arm twist the SA too much (means...ask too much things or too much discount). They also need commission to survive wink.gif   

Of course, it also depends on when u hv booked it. I believe the first 500 batch are almost all taken. And, most likely the new batch should only arrive end of the Sept.
*
Really?? I suspect something a miss as he claimed that he is unable to confirm. I am not sure if I am the 1st 500 but doubt so as I booked mine in mid Aug 2013.

I didn't even request any discount much where I being offered RM500 discount ONLY, nothing else. Sigh!!! maybe I am just too nice..

Hmm.. all SA earn commision from each car sales. In addition, the loan, insurance and...the best commision given is those optional accessories. Anyway, r u ordering from TC show room, or some car dealer? I booked mine a week before Raya, and gotten it 2 weeks after Raya. I booked it through a friend who is working as Honda sales... lol.

I booked during the Raya week from TC show room. means, you booked 1 week earlier than me but gotten the car now.I am still waiting ...... cry.gif

Between, mine is white

Checked with SA and still uncertain of when is the delivery date.

They claim that the next shipment arriving is 15th Sept and only then will know how many cars.

Otherwise, next shipment lo shakehead.gif

Really speechless, how Nissan perform their business? not knowing which order and when deliver....... shouldn't for each order and lock to the system and all the way to the planning, production, delivery, inspection, etc?

Antzfield, i bet good thing does not come easily. wink.gif Indeed, it happened to all "car booking". Not just Nissan. The best is that u get some contact, and ordered the car through a friend. Again, we should congratulate ourselves for making a wise choice as the car really overbooked. TCM had actually identified the void of the MPV market pretty well for this round.
*
Hehe... I agreed with you. However, I thought other car makes able to give rough estimates of when car should be ready. This goes to my other car, Honda. Anyway, I should "enjoy" the wait la brows.gif

If any of the forumer has managed to find in any of the accessories shop, please help to update us.

I bet it is a good opportunity for the bodyshop owner to bring these accessories in.

Finally ...u r an inch closer. As for changing tyre size, I bet the fuel consumption wd be different n u may pay for more. As learning from other Serena HK forum, for tyre size of 17 n 18' reduce the fuel consumption n may only achieve 9 km/l. So its a trade off.
*
FINALLY, received the car liao!!!

My wife test and driven home the car after tinting done, she has given a big thumbup.gif both my kids love it so much.

The ride is smooth and quiet (yet to test on highway) and no regret.

Today will be coating work and it will be perfect by the end of the day.....

Bro...The shop name is N.C.C.A . Address is no99, jln pasir putih,ipoh,perak.contact number is 052418227. Look for the supervisor kirve. If he did not give u the mention price, just say Mr liew recommend. He will give u this special price. Try to survey and see, may be u can get a cheaper price than me.

I am not sure what is the price if windscreenis Elite and the rest 55. However, I was quoted RM2,700 for the entire Elite in Ipoh. All my car VKool tinting was done by this shop in Ipoh and the workmanship also not bad, so far no complain lah.

It is Ipoh Tint Shop. Let me know if you need number to enquire and I will search for you.

I also from Ipoh but gotten my car in PJ. biggrin.gif cari makan here mah ...
