Alright thanks. Enjoy your RS!

Congratulation
Enjoy your car,, update here later okay

I only sign my loan tomorrow,, no time to sign, and not in hurry to get car also, target before June
Mine is white V specs

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.

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

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.

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

My RS...



No more 2nd set of remote. Instead they gave a card. The card consider quite thick.

Congratulation Crusader. The grey looks awesome.

Congratulation Enjoy Your Ride

How is the power compare to your mazda 2.5T

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.

is the RS spec queue long? was being told by SA that the queue now can be up to 8 months

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?

How's the CRV ride comfort on badly paved road as compared to the CX5? Both on 19" rim..

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.

Yes, my mistake.

Does the CX5 handles better than the new CRV around corners etc?

Booked in Feb for Meteroid Gray
Was told est for it is in June

New booking starting from April, Waiting period is 6 months

Hows the fuel consumption so far? Better than Corolla Cross Hybrid?

Tbh I don't feel CX5 is better than CRV.
