QUOTE(Prop.Observer @ Jun 10 2016, 02:22 PM) Mostly the big showroom have all the variants. But, only the 1.5T premium is using for test drive. The mid spec and base model are allocate at showroom for viewing purpose. no ? The one I went to is small showroom at a shop lot. Mostly park outside at parking lot with tents erected

LED headlamp night time is a head turner. That attention is priceless?
Just like the Audi TT LED Matrix lamp

The Navigation in 1.5T Premium contain other countries map? I drive in Msia and Singapore a lot. Without data plan on phone, this car navigation will be useful for me

QUOTE(Jeff_lwh @ Jun 11 2016, 09:10 AM) I viewed the Civic on 9 June at Sumber Auto Edaran. 20 salespersons none bother to Layan me. After 5 mins 1 salesgirl came forward but 3 mins later she went answer call then I left alone again. Anyway, disappointed the rear seat back no 60:40 split folding across the range. Indonesian spec has it. My 2008 Civic FD2 have it. Maybe facelift only can split fold? People just by the appearance. Did you dress up during the visit?

QUOTE(Jeffreynsx @ Jun 11 2016, 11:04 AM) When your car arrived, make sure bring along spotlight that run in battery mode to inspect the car paint and car tinting. Under certain temperature, it will generate bubble if the car tint specialist did not do their job well. Hence, can request for replacement of tint before drive out from the showroom. If got scratches at the plastic trim or paint surface, immediately reject the vehicle or ask for cash rebate as a compensation. Good tip. Didn't know can do that. Just like inspecting new house

QUOTE(Jeffreynsx @ Jun 11 2016, 11:22 AM) Make sure don't signed the collection slip if your vehicle is not in "perfect" condition. Otherwise, you may need to wait for the 1,000 km service. As usual, they will ignore those rattling sound, scratches that happened to your vehicle and claimed it is normal. So aside to inspecting interior and exterior, can test drive and report the abnormal sound heard?

QUOTE(infinite81 @ Jun 12 2016, 09:06 AM) Have you take a look at the real car? Try to sit in the 1.8L if you haven't. The fabric was so terrible even mid range car like Myvi have better fabric than this. After sit in both model, straight away call my SA to change from 1.8L to 1.5T. My friend too change his choice to 1.5T after physically try out the 1.8L Before the launch he kept justifying that spending extra 20k is not worth it, 1.8L is already an all rounder features, one of the best in class, bla bla... Because of this change, he has to join the new queue for 1.5T which is long now - and he's willing to wait. I guess this fabric thing is real turn off to many.

QUOTE(netangle73 @ Jun 12 2016, 10:30 AM) Though I got poisoned by the 1.5T, I think I may still stick with my booking for 1.8 even the fabric does not satisfy me, I think I rather pay Honda extra money to upgrade the fabric to leather before I even get the car, at least the leather will be fixed properly in the honda plant and it is covered under their warranty. My worry is I do the aftermarket outside and it causes some unexpected issue to the air bag or some funny door noise, then Honda SC may not want to help me to fix the problem. By the way, for the window film, is it worth to go for their Ecotint Ray-Barrier 4 or 6 under their Honda's accessory list ? I called up Ecotint to ask and was told the heat rejection is only about 50%, did your Honda City use the Ecotint Ray-Barrier ? Is it OK ? The more you lurking here in this forum, you'll get poison more I doubt the RM3k leather seat upgrade is an official Honda M'sia upgrade. Doesn't make economic sense to them, for positioning it as a accessory to upgrade. This will kill their higher variant offering. Better check and get not just verbal but also written confirmation that it won't void the warranty if you go for it

QUOTE(jack bauer @ Jun 13 2016, 11:32 AM) What is the reason if one want to take up the civic with the Navigation option? Especially those who most of time Waze is the preferred choice. I drive cross country a lot eg S'pore. The navigation is useful if the maps for the country is available

QUOTE(celciuz @ Jun 14 2016, 12:36 PM) Civic is using electronic parking brake, if the car battery went flat how to release parking brake? Good question. I guess Honda wouldn't be stupid to let the battery to die, there should be mechanism to monitor the battery life - since many electronics feature are available in the car

I'm thinking since this Civic comes with remote start, plan to install only the basic tint package offered by Honda. No need to get the more expensive tint. What you guys think?

QUOTE(GeekinE90 @ Jun 15 2016, 08:39 PM) Cars will be delivered on 20th to the dealer at the branch I booked. They got allcation of 25 cars a mix of spec and colors. White is the most popular so white bookings are likely to have later delivery dates. Apparently many have booked but are struggling to get loans approved due to tighter bank aporovals so the cars are going out to others with full docs/payment first. This afternoon I saw 1 unit of Silver being deliver on trailer together with red Jazzes to a dealer here

QUOTE(cybermaster98 @ Jun 15 2016, 09:28 PM) The focus should be on safety more than comfort. So I would always go for a security tint. If we can spend >100K on a car, im sure we can top up 1-2K for a good security tint. I just installed Llumar Diamond 6 on my own car. Makes a huge difference. Car left in the heat for hours and ure not cooked in your seats when u get in. Just 10 secs of the aircon and the car has cooled down considerably. And the RM1500 3M or EcoTint recommended by HM are not security tint?

QUOTE(loneboy62 @ Jun 16 2016, 11:12 AM) Does Honda produces more car now or lesser buyer? It seems like a lot of agents also text me said after Raya can get car now. Combination of both I think. Honda should have learnt and improved from their previous HRV launch. Even new iPhone releases now the waiting period is lesser compared to the early years Buyers are lesser because economy has slowed down.

QUOTE(usopkun @ Jun 16 2016, 11:46 AM) I booked at MH. So far my SA quite efficient and friendly. Loan approved in less than 1 hour. Submit documents at 12.30, 15 minutes later bank interview, before 1.30pm approved. PBB. Super extremely fast. From all the sharing here, I get the impressions that Honda SA are not desperate (as if sales are breeze to them). But banks are desperate. Loans are approved super fast

QUOTE(loneboy62 @ Jun 16 2016, 11:56 AM) So LC the SA, wouldn't he lost the business with this attitude? Now bad economy usually other SA will be more polite and friendly. There's only ONE Honda & one NEW Civic, but there are so many banks competing for loan Even if you don't like the attitude of current SA but you will STILL go to ANOTHER Honda branch for booking. Not that you decide to book with their competitors. SA lansi or not, Honda Malaysia still wins
