Good the list growing. No one buy the wagon yet?

I saw one Aluminium silver 2.5L at esso R&R sg buloh yesterday, plate WYD 9XX. Belong to anyone here? I parked (not quite legal) near the pam angin at that time in my Red.

Anyway I am at ADK Roda Aloq Staq doing my 1st service. Already exceed the mileage by 400km. This service centre is very cosy, it bring the nostalgia of following my dad to the workshop when I was a small kid.

The journey yesterday was great in this car. So effortlessly cruising at 180km/h. The brochure does not the top speed for 2.0, but I think 205 is possible. I still think the tyre noise is a bit too high, I suspect it is overinflated.

Small service ctr like this is good as it is really quiet. No queue at all, altho I did book my slot though.

As I suspected the tyres are over inflated.

Hehe. I didnt really talk to the service guy la...
In kedah maybe the presence is not really extensive. Even the showroom is so small and hidden behind the trees and has Daihatsu service at the gate.

It surely a nice car. The body has typical Audi tight surfacing n radiusing that gives the high tension-like surface appearance. Audi interior is usually class-leading too.

Personally i prefer car of this size for commuting to work, preferably with hi-po engine. Family car is a separate one, big, spacious and can afford to be a big ugly.

But with current pricing, car needs to multitasking. It need to be big enough and yet so sexy in appearance that you'll never bored staring at it. So....i bought a.....

If refering to the Mazda Australia spec sheet. The temporary tyre size provided is 185/55 R16. Wonder if it's a compact or a "full size".
*
For car like Lancer/Inspira, versions with full-size & space-saver tyre has different boot floor, either shallower or deeper. If we were to fit one, will the current floor still usable? The size of spare tyre does influence the boot packaging & car maker sometimes engineered multiple boot floor. It could be different for Mz6, but thats what i learned during my car designing days....

@blu3,
Actually my actual dream car for now (well, before i book Mz6) is the F30. Spesifically a black one with 19 inch black wheel and wears M Sport trim (anyway when M Sport will come to Msia?) and with Coral Red interior.

Reality somehow strikes. The most I can do now is fit a matte black 19 inchers to partially complete the dream. Hopefully I can afford F30 when the LCi comes, but then by that time the kids may not fit the rear seat anymore. Oh well, maybe it is time to upgrade job again.....

Anyway enjoy yr Bimmer bro....

My next dream car would be the 520d. HOHOHO. But cant buy white. The rear will be a bit dirty cause by our poor diesel. user posted image

Yeah. Those diesel Bimmer. Evrytime i tailed one, they will 'sembur dakwat hitam' evrytime the driver hit the gas harder.

Well, ultimate diesel bimmer is M550xd, a tri-turbo 3.0L straight six.

Coming back to the real world, I am having hard time to pack my luggage together with several tupperware boxes. Our Mz6, despite having a long boot floor, the height is quite shallow. I guess this is the price to pay for having a sleek rear butt.

The car looks amazing on 19inch wheel. Does Mazda offer an upgrade? Last time I heard for CX-5 the warranty will void if larger wheel is fitted. Not sure abt Mz6 though....but larger rim is definitely in my to-do list, although not on immediate term.

Im not encourage 2.0 owner to upgrade to 19 inch rims. It will kacau the speedometer, fc will higher and not to forget the tire price rm1200~1400 /each. Infact i doubt it will be comfy as i already felt the 17 inch is already just on par for comfy level eventhough alot of reviews surprisingly said 19 inch is comfy.

Bro,
If we want to be rationale, logic and put the right sense, of cos 19inch wont make sense.

But there's one thing called nafsu or desire......

Wow so good to heard that RM0.165/km for 2.5 , any 2.0 owner can share their fuel consumption for this baby ?

My average mileage for the first 1000km was 8.8L/100km. My daily driving cycle involved 180km/h blast, jammed PLUS n NKVE and smooth sailing Elite & SKVE, totalling 170km each day.

Car is already approaching 1,900km today. I will update the new figure 2moro.

Btw mine is 2.0.

Hi, i m a new M6 owner. Found this forum with many interesting details smile.gif.

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.

Fellow 2.0 owner,
What do u guys think about the manual +/- override? I've tried many times and I found that the while downshift is rapid but the upshift lacks ummph. It does not give a dose of speed jump I am looking for.

Or this could be the case of small engine in big car?

Lastly, among all the owner here, maybe it is just me who has not tint the car yet. In this two weeks of ownership I still think that the car UV glass filter the heat quite well. My real reason of not tinting is afraid the fitting of the door trim might be off after they detach it for tinting. Got a bad experience with my Myvi last time.

RM100k discount?? I know C200 got 20-30k discount last December but RM100k? That's huge savings even considering the facelifted model is coming. I think for C250 is good value, as even the C200 is RM260k if I am not mistaken.

This one no need respray, carbon fiber look great. Matches with carbon fiber bodykits with matte black 19" rims.
Oh yeah, and respray your roof top to glossy black (match the colour to your sunroof) too.
And now, imagine the outcome.  wub.gif

Dude I am having a wet dream about 19" matte black rims since the day one I got my 6. I think it will go well with my soul red color. But i dont have the gut (& money) to do it just yet. Maybe nxt year.....
