Anyone can share your interest rate, which bank, how many years and amount for the loan? TQ

I took a HP from Hong Leong, they have a flexible credit facility to shorten the instalments tenure and save interest when u have extra cash. If not mistaken, mine was 2.75%

Just came back from a day trip KL - Ipoh - KL with 4 adults in the car. First highway drive. Managed to hit 150kmph at certain stretches on the return trip. Even had the pleasure of driving in the rain for the first time. Also, took the trunk road for about 40km to avoid the heavy traffic on the NSE.

I must say im quite impressed with the handling and steering feel. If I didn't know it was a Honda, I might have thought it was a conti. Felt very confident driving the car. Although the car is relatively light (approx. 1.25 tonnes), the suspension is firm enough to prevent significant body roll at tight corners and yet soft enough to provide a very comfortable ride. Except for the noise from the tyres, there is very little other road noise penetrating the cabin. Even wind noise from the side mirrors is limited.

I also really liked the wipers. Very smooth and effective despite the large windscreen. Better than even my BMW wipers I must say.

I guess the 2 drawbacks I experienced was firstly the limitation of the 1.8S engine. Mid range acceleration ability is limited so fast overtaking was difficult. But this is easily overcome if you use Sports mode (albeit with increased fuel consumption for sure).

The 2nd drawback was the halogen lights. After being accustomed to HID headlights (Kia Optima K5) since 2012 and LED (BMW) now, I needed a bit of getting used to. Found myself turning on the high beam a lot when I was on the trunk road.

My whole trip today consumed slightly more than half tank of fuel. Didn't use the fill-measure-fill method so can't be certain of the exact consumption.

(P/S No rattling or any defects so far)

Nice review

Overall, it is still a continental cars. In terms of handling, performance and safety, those BMW, Mercedes or Audi got certain level of reliability. Or else why a person paid premium cost for a vehicle that give them satisfaction? An entry level brand new Japanese cars only cost RM60k ++ whereas a brand new Continental cars cost around RM180k ++ for basic spec. For normal driving condition (~110km/h), Japanese cars is sufficient enough to travel from point A to B. Whereas those enthusiast that preferred dynamic driving performance...can upgrade to Continental cars.

I think it is not fair comparing FWD with RWD for handling, RWD will have better control as less stress on front tyre when running.

I do hope Honda vehicles equipped with FR instead of FF. This setup not only fun to drive but also great handling. Not understand why Japanese cars maker opt for FF instead of FR setup for specific models.

I think costing is the major concern for Japanese car makers to consider FR

I am using Hong Leong Mach car loan, it is more flexible for me to reduce the principal of the car loan up to 30% to reduce the interest and shorten the instalments in the end.

Car loan interest so low why wana pay more n reduce? Use the money and invest elsewhere and earn higher returns la.

Bro. Pls do not compare fixed rate with the flexible rate of term loan for housing etc. The car hp rate of 2.75% actually would cost more than 5% interest per annum eventually. Unless u have good investment which could guarantee return more than such rates, why not? If only FD, it is advisable to settle loan first.

I know all about effective rates which is why I still say don't waste money reducing car loans. Why do u think I always go for 90% max 9 yrs loan?

There are many investments out there with varying levels of risk which also provide potentially much higher returns.

(p/s: FD is not an investment vehicle anymore. Most ppl either 'invest' in FD to offset inflation or because they dont know what else to pump their money into. Even then nowadays FD returns are not enough to offset inflation)
*
Thanks for sharing. Investment risk and return would depend on each individual on risk appetite. Some ppl stil prefer FD even know it could not fight with inflation.

In fact, Malaysian nowadays mostly already in high debt ratio. For me, in uncertain economic situation, i would prefer to be more prudent, to reduce debt as much possible. Just my personal opinion. Cheers!

JPJ will use their new tint guidelines to rake in more money for their coffers. They are getting more and more desperate by the day. I would strongly suggest you stick to JPJ compliant tints.

Anyway Llumar Diamond 6 is for safety with good heat rejection. I would think having 50% VLT is dangerous for side windows especially at night.
*
I think most tint cannot go thru puspakom even with 70VLT, as glass VLT already there. As long as not too dark by visual, should be ok.

Getting my civic by this week, but not yet decide what tint to go for. The ecotint 1500 as per spec provided by Honda seem like a very good deal. Anyone have experience with it? Plz share some review. Or anyone with any recommendations on other brand cost around 1.5k to 2k plz pm or message me too biggrin.gif
*
At first i would like to choose Ecotint, but with this price, the front and back windscreen seem not too high tser, about 42% i think, i got initial quote by Raytech also better price and spec. U can upgrade windscreen if needed as it is the most important tint.
