You should have shot the tail to compare also!

I'm in such a hurry that time.
Anyway, what you pay is what you get. blush.gif

If I do shoot the back, you all will notice how short the f30.
Please look at the first photo, f30 is not in the white box, I think the owner purposely wanna parked at the same point with me.
We are on the same point in front, doesn't mean the same at the back. So bad I didn't trigger my shutter in time.
Despite the length, I gotta admit it, the f30 does look more masculine and more fierce.
I like the side profile on M6, mean looking it from the side, more appealing.

Didnt answer my question.
My question is why does an f30 looks larger like a d segment?
But nevermind. Neoy already stated the f30 is shorter than the m6

As in my photo, f30's tail light only reach my fuel cap.

Guys. Do u guys experience any movement / car moving even with ur handbrake on? Ive experienced it for multiple times now. Should i check for it? i feel the car moving backward when i stop at the traffic lights causing my reflex to pull the handbrake harder but when i try to pull it, the handbrake was already max and i need to push the brake foot pedal. even with my handbrake on, i put it at d gear, the car moves!
*
Better go and check. Mine do not have this problem, it perform like it should be.

In terms of size, mazda6 beat f30, a4 and c class anytime, although continental car wheel base is judged at d segment length, but their interior design had caused them become c seg car.

So blue, you've yet to post some of your f30 photos here. wub.gif

Off/Topic. How do you guys like the new Audi A3? Audi A1 starts from RM179,900 while the Audi A4 starts from RM235,000. How much do you expect to pay for the Audi A3?

It is a B or C segment?
So I assume RM190K for a B/C segment sedan.
I'd take A3 sportback anytime rather than the Golf GTi.
But if you compare it with a mid size sedan like the M6 or any other D seg, I would say the Passat is more value for money.

I feel that this is the right way the manual gearshifting should be, - on top and + on the bottom. it follows the flow of force felt when u are driving. another driver's car that I know uses the same concept is bmw, if im not mistaken peugeot does too.
*
Nope, I pretty sure Peugeot are different with Mazda, + on top and - on the bottom, but you are right upon BMW.
I totally agreed with you, I find it is the better way to pull down the knob for up-shift.

I finally had the chance to use the flappy paddles. I must say, the gear shifts are smooth and quick, no lag from user input.

Bro, did you try the shiftronic? Some said shiftronic is faster than paddles shift.
Since you have both, worth trying and share the response here. blush.gif

I see, no wonder only 40 units affected...

No one in the statistic just yet, they recalled it for prevention purposes or to rectify "potential" quality issues.
I wonder why people nagging about Mazda's act, they are being responsible to their consumers.
Any car manufacturers' recall are good. If I can have my car's problems (or potential problems) fixed FOC, why not. blush.gif

Depends on traffic conditions and where you drive also la. The 320i should come with an automatic engine stop. If I remember, you will barely notice it when the engine shuts itself off. That was the case when I tested the 320d. And it was also the case when I tested the Golf Mk7 last week. The i-stop engine restart in the Mz6 is noticeably obvious.
*
No way the F30 is any better than the M6 in term of auto start-stop function. Personally and many review tested and proved. Majority of owners might still off it when they get in to the car, ask Blue. rolleyes.gif
Still remember when I tested the 320d and 328i, I get amazed negatively upon their start-stop technology, I told myself, if I get this car, I will close this every time I get into the car.
No different in M6 also, off it (i-Stop) every time after fire up the engine. shakehead.gif

The best auto start stop experience for me is Honda Insight and Honda Jazz Hybrid (never test Toyota Hybrid). Maybe due to their displacement, you can hardly notice even they restart itself.

I didn't test the F30 enough to know. But what I do remember is I didn't notice the engine shutting off until the SA told me about it on the 320d. Actually on 3 separate occasions, I also didn't notice it going off while stopped at the traffic junction.

But I do know that the Golf Mk7 implementation was also not noticed until the driver told me about it. When he tested it again to show me, I was quite impressed on the implementation.

I should test the Honda Insight and Jazz Hybrid to see if it does the same thing. Another thing also could be with the displacement as you have said, but what I was told was, it's how the engine places it cylinder that affects the start up process. This is actually interesting, I will go read up on the technical details on why some engine start up are less noticeable than the others. Hopefully can find some articles on it.
*
Shutting off should be smooth on every car, even in M6.
But we are talking about judder during restart, not a good experience on both M6 and F30, at least for me. sweat.gif

As for MK7, haven't experience it myself. Never stop itself in traffic but "auto-hold" does, not bad actually, no need to pull handbrake. tongue.gif

No, the restart on the mk7 is very smooth, quiet and refined. Similarly when I tested the F30, the engine restart wasn't particularly obvious to me until the SA pointed it out on 2 different occasions.

It isn't a problem, rather, this is an issue of refinement. The overall impact it has on the driving experience is minimal at best.
*
True enough, refinement does play apart.
Anyway, I don't accept this kind of technologies just yet. Wonder how much fuel you can save on this. Can this shorter the life span of engine?

Welcome to the club bro. Hope this forum can be the platform for us to share our ownership experience.

I got an x-colleague who has just received his 2.5L version, in silver color. His is the second batch, so no recall. So the 2nd batch already arrived in Malaysia?

Anyway I browsed the japanese goonet used car website. Pity we dont have the black color option here or else this will be my pick. It is on 19inches too.

I think they replace the DC 24V-DC 12V converter before deliver to the customer, so it is still the first batch and no recall. hmm.gif

Priority number 1: 2.5 headlights!!!!!!!!!  Tak tahan lagi mau tukar

Asked my SA during first service. Price range should be around 1k-2k only.
Their concern is the control board/chip inside the ECU, 2.5L should uses the different board, said by my SA. So if you change, it might not work properly.
For example, there are one Mazda 3 (1.6L, Halogen with Projector) owner wanna change his headlight to 2.0L (with Xenon). SA did help him order from Japan. Shape and size all okay, but after fitted it, it goes haywire, it light-up even you don't switch it on. sweat.gif
Since our 2.0L come with projector housing and manual leveling, get a proper HID/Xenon kit should be okay. Won't void warranty if it doesn't require any wire cut.
