I think only those who book during this raya promo will get free stuff la. For those of us who bought car early will not get anything.

Is the free leather seat direct from factory? Or they do it outside, rewrap the fabric to leather? Usually if done outside the workmanship quite bad unless they bring it to the pros.

bro saw one member posted in fb group.. the leather fitting is very very good.. just like high spec.. haiz

The HB doesnt come with Leather, the SA did offer the leather seat which will set me back 3k, but then I reject it when I found out that the leather is not direct from the factory, which mean it is not the same thing you see in a High Sedan, its OEM from outsider, so-called the mazda appointed leather seat supplier, which I believe is the same to the free leather for the CBU version. they claim that the OEM leather is Nappa which is better than the HS but I havent actually seen 1 so Im doubt about it. Another thing is that the leather is actually warp over your fabric seat, unlike the HS leather seat. will it affect the air bag fuctionality on the seat? Im not sure.
*
Omg really??? So they didn't take out the original fabric seat but just wrap over a new leather.. Omg this so unprofessional.. better don't take it bro as it really affects the side airbag from coming out n as well as the fitting will not be good..

Any new M3 owner here upgrade from B segments 1.5 car? How is the performance? much better or just slighter better? I remember one of the M3 owner here commented that he lost in drag race vs Vios.  hmm.gif

But it sound impossible 162hp vs 109hp.
*
Me upgraded from 1.6L persona to this m3, the power difference is so huge, the torque n power delivery of this beast is just so smooth...

But if u say drag race like 0-60kmph versus vios, I do think m3 gonna lose,since heavier body compared to vios.. But I don't think acceleration after 80kmph, vios can outrun our m3.. hehe

Hi all M3 owners, would like to know is it the NVH is that poor? Most of the reviews for M3 sure mentions the NVH / road noise / wind noise is not at par for its class..

I am driving a persona at the moment. Any persona owners upgraded to M3 enlighten me pls? Thanks alot...

* I did a test drive at Puchong branch. Too bad they just doesn't allow me to go highway to test it.  cry.gif
*
Me too upgraded from 3yrs old persona to this m3 gl spec.. Yes n I have to agree that the nvh for m3 is not good.. especially the road noise, imho persona even have better road noise nvh.. but other than road noise, engine noise n wind noise are definitely much better, same goes to overall ride n handling n performance. This m3 is just so smooth!

Hi guys, do your car has 2 tone colors on body and bumper? I notice that when I went inspect my car this afternoon.

It is just so obvious on blue and grey. Aluminium and white less obvious due to brighter color.

I'm wondering if anyone could check and give me feedback on your ride.

hi bro.. mine have this... body n rear bumper is with two tones color.. and is kinda obvious to me.. mine is grey.. what about u?

hi fellow mazda fans,
i am considering new altis n volkswagen jetta (something within my budget)....suddenly came across mazda 3 which made my mind explode....

well mazda 3 is not that bad after all...only issue i notice is, the rear passenger seat is quite narrow and understand that the RV is low...

im from jb btw n visited mazda near permas.

Thus far either altis or mazda 3 would be my favorite and having hard time to choose....
any good samaritan can recommend something here??
i need real suggestions why i should consider mazda compared to altis??
is really RV important (cause toyota RV should be better than mazda...i guess)??

cause im seriously thinking of changing my existing vehicle by end of this year.

pros
handling and accurate steering feel even with EPS
handsome looking both exterior n interior

fully loaded with safety features

cons

I didn't manage to capture photo. Was heart broken when told car is ready but ended up in this way..  cry.gif

Take a close look and compare the body color against your bumper paint.
From what I see there is some different in colors hence I say 2 tone. Paint on the bumper produce darker and less shining surface..

Perhaps ZaiZai1989 could help to capture some pics? Since he mentioned he did noticed it too.. Perhaps its related to material? Body = metal, bumper = PU/ABS plastics?

Thanks~!

Sure bro..I will try snap a photo of it later today..

Guess it's due to different material punya pasal..

Hi all M3 owners. just got my Mazda 3 CKD GL just now. there is something that is bugging me, hope other owners here can help me a bit.

I put my downpayment during the Bermaz Mazda promotion lucky draw, and i got a voucher for free Tribos coating. the thing is, when i took my car just now, i ask the SA for the warranty or receipt for the coating. i was told there was no receipt due to this is part of some colaboration with Tribos.

is there any other owner out there with Tribos coating for their car as well? did you receive any receipt or warranty card ?

for all i know, i cant tell if there is coating or not? and from Tribos website, after wash with water can air dry and there wont be water marks.. going to try this out. although its free, but i hate getting scammed.

tq!!!
*
normally if ur car is coated.. dirt will be easily washed away.. the water repelling effect will be very strong and lasting too.. unlike normal wax.. after few wash then the water repelling will be no more.. if u still see water beading effect after few times of car wash, then it should be coated i guess... haha..

and actually can see from eyes too.. the paint is like covered by a thin later of wax.. its more obvious when u compared with non coated car

Hi guys,

Just paid my down payment balance yesterday for M3 HS. My SA said no such thing as deduct NCD from downpayment. Have to pay full insurance then claim back NCD from Berjaya Sompo.

Wanna ask you guys did the same way too? From my experience with other car brands all can deduct NCD from downpayment. And usually how long does it take to get back my NCD refund.

Thank you.

he is trying to earn more commission from that? because u r buyng a new insurance.. logically yes u can deduct from DP..

do anyone encounter this problem, the turn signal flash double the speed when replaced with LED bulb?

using a normal orange color LED bulb to replace original bulb will usually become like tat due to LED consumes lesser energy, u should look for LED bulb with CANBUS
