Sorry. totally not sure if they still have stock or not. Maybe someone booking have problem with loan application and I was next in line.
Salesman told me to get loan approval ready after booking so that he can quickly grab one if available.

Alright thanks. Enjoy your RS!

Thanks...
But not sure what to update later. Not really familiar with Honda car. In fact not really into cars.
The only other Honda in the family is my eldest son Civic 1.5 RS which I only drove twice.
Moved from Toyota then Mazda and now Honda. blush.gif

Based on reviews from local and overseas, this car is better than its previous version, in terms of NVH,, RS quality is obviously 1 level above the normal one,

I booked RS initially, but change to V last month, because I always change before warranty ends, probably im few of those buying a car based on resell value

This will be my 3rd CRV, after G3 and G5

Having kids that already owning a car meaning, we almost at same age rclxms.gif

Thanks for the info. I test drive on the booking day, the performance/comfort acceptable for me (Came from CX-5 2.5 T)
Actually I felt the CX5 engine too powerful for me. Maybe I'm too old.
Also want to try a Hybrid car... never had one before.

I'm with Lowyat.net since 2003, definitely not young. thumbup.gif

How's the G6 handling compares to the CX5?

One reason I went for the 2WD instead of the AWD is because I was told the response from the 2WD is better. But I never have the chance to actually tried them for myself

You buying 2wd RS or 1.5E?

I never test drove RS,, even at first I booked RS
I did test E and V,, I not sure what you meant by response,, but for sure E is better in terms of pick up,, probably lighter? I dunno, not sure

Definitely don't have the power of 2.5T but still not bad. And I find the Honda steering a bit stiffer than Mazda.

A quiet and comfortable ride on the RS.

Your SA told you that.. wow, thats long,, you can check other SA or with bigger dealer, if you in KV, few of this big dealer can get you faster delivery time, my fav is Mofaz and Peringgit

I believe that most specs will receives car within April,, and I start to see more an more G6 now on the road, today saw one red RS at Kiara and 2 white RS at OKR

I supposed to get my V in May, but today got a call from SA to pay my downpayment and to ready money for my Sompo insurance.

Even my SA offer me if I want to switch back to RS with same ETA

Yes, better pick up

I was deciding between the E's better pick up and the V's better cornering stability with AWD. Is the AWD cornering stability noticeably better than the 2WD?

CRV RS ride is more comfort and quiet compare to CX5. I think CRV rims are 18" not 19".

Not as bumpy as CX5 might due to thicker tyres on CRV RS.
