but i feel like gvc and non-gvc not much different in term of handling, i cant really feed the effect of gvc though, but that's just my personal opinion

nevertheless, it is a good car to drive around town, love the driving experience so much and never get bored with the car design, mazda really did a great job on this

Bought a preowned mazda 3 non GVC from glenmarie. Expecting to get the car tomorrow. Excited being my first car after driving my kelisa for 12 yrs.

Anyone try connected service? Live Traffic and Weather?

Sure no problem on that   ...i c in show is if you wanna test for GVC u had to test it on mountain like genting highland or set it up some obstacles in race track then just can feel...coz GVC is consider a passive safety...it enhances our high speed sharp cornering safety...otherwise is i think mazda is quite successful is due to the package they offer is much more better than market competitors is...will keep on viewing and c this all info share in this pages    

Hmm thought the main idea of GVC is so that the driver won't be able to feel the difference?

but too bad bermaz increases the price of m3 make losing the competition edge to their competitors

nowadays a lot of C segment car also going turbo charged, m3 performance also cant compare with them already, but handling i guess still the better one
maybe really subtle difference, cant really know whether it works unless go and film the passenger reaction and put it side by side like the promotion video

Well... At first was promised within 2 weeks, then now in the third week already. Called 2 days ago and again was told within these few days. Not sure how true is that though...

performance wise, is quite good for NA car, fuel savings on daily drive and has the performance + handling for spirited driving

Good luck I faced same problem too. I booked in 3rd week of july, and my delivery date has been pushed 4 times liao - no colour la, long weekend lah, inspection backlog lah... my next delivery date is next Wed, so ... we'll see.
What is NA car?

What is your color choice? Mine is Machine Grey, I think only premium color taking so long...

Wow 12 years. I also changed from Kelisa but only drove it for 7 years

Yeaps, since my second year old uni. Wanted to buy a property first and really comfortable financially then only change my car. 

Since we both drove kelisa before this,  I felt it's a really big upgrade in terms of safety, car size, almost everything is an upgrade hahahhaha.

Yup, same. I originally booked Blue Reflex, but SA told me Mazda decided not to provide that colour for Mazda 3, so I was asked to change colour. So I changed to Machine Grey too.

Hello all. After driving the car for one month I just realised there is no alarm. Is it a norm for M3 or I got ripped off? Was wondering why my remote control no alarm button.

I think some of modern car don't have a panic button, but alarm is there.
try to sit inside and ask someone lock the car from outside and you open the door from inside.

no panic button, if you want to test how the alarm sounds like can do like what peace_lover suggest, or you can lower the window, get out of the car and lock the door then open the door from inside through the opened window

alarm sound is just horn like saga alarm if i remember correctly, i heard it once when i jump start my m3 due to flat battery
