SA said my car arrived, delivery date within this month.
Went to their stockyard and view the car.
People who still considering in term of exterior colour might refer to the photo for better view under direct sunlight.
Cheer.

Greeting. Booked my CRV TC-P during June. Initially ordered VW Tiguan but delivery date on December, so cancelled the order.

QUOTE(Darkknight2010 @ Jul 18 2017, 01:33 PM) The olive color not bad ya.......but I booked pearl white already....we bought total 5 cars back in May.....group buy but discount a bit only.....the cabin is really spacious.....rear seat is reclinable.... I booked Pearl White too, initially prefer the Olive Green too, but it is a little too dark to my preference. 5 people group buy? May I know the offer you guys get? I only got typical RM500 "commission" discount. |

QUOTE(Darkknight2010 @ Jul 19 2017, 01:24 PM) Pls PM me for details. Might be getting another one. Thanks. I think Olive Green work the other way round. Olive color looks like pool but under hot sun it looks like black.....I used to have a Honda Insight too.....yes the paint changed color about a year later and very hard to maintain.....but CRV pearl white is different....its brighter..... With direct sunlight, you may see the dark green metallic color but within shaded area it appear to be black color. |

QUOTE(crayzeex @ Aug 1 2017, 10:47 AM) got quotation for 3M crystalline 40 about RM3200+ new CRV. Quoted by Huper Optik, Front Sech60 and window HS40 6mil, at RM1900. been using 3M for my previous car and very happy with it. Sorry to say that, be it 3M or any others "branded" tinted, I think RM3200 is too expensive. From my previous experience, any tinted cost between RM 1.5k - RM 2.5k is sufficient enough, just make sure what you pay is what you get (you know what I mean, especially your SA sent your car for tinted first before delivery). |

Just got my car yesterday, love every bits of it.
The only drawback I could every found is the engine noise, i was like driving a diesel car. Wind noise and road noise is good though, overall soundproofing is good, being a Honda. This post has been edited by Neo_Y: Aug 2 2017, 09:46 AM Attached thumbnail(s) |

QUOTE(belfong @ Jul 31 2017, 07:09 PM) Anyone know what is the purpose these two gold pins on the brakes are? And it's so fragile. I'd imagine some vandals will just break it off. They seemed to be only seen on the two rear wheels. The front wheels do not have these. It is actually the brake pad retainer clip / or pin you called it. [attachmentid=9006413] [attachmentid=9006414] It used to indicate the thickness of the brake pad and house the pad in place so it won't rattle and squeak. When the pad worn out, the pin pushes the pad inner. The front have it too, just the placement is differ from the rear.

QUOTE(belfong @ Aug 2 2017, 11:25 AM) Thank you for your explanation. But why such an odd placement and not covered. Someone who's tangan gatal can just break the pins easily. Not very vandal proof. Agreed. But I think people normally vandal exterior body panel instead.Let's not be worried, brake components will be freaking hot after drive, that will burn the "tangan gatal" guys' hand if he try to do something unusual. |

QUOTE(belfong @ Aug 2 2017, 11:38 AM) I didn't feel the engine was too loud, to be honest. But yet, I can hear a very slight winding down, whooshing pitch as I slow down. It sounds like a plane engine winding down. Not bothering though. I think it's my ears being sensitive, but yet not sensitive enough to feel the engine is loud. On the flip side, overall cabin noise is very much quiet, yet a little bit of intrusive engine note is so noticeable. |

QUOTE(voncrane @ Aug 5 2017, 09:10 AM) That and in addition to where the sensors are positioned and pointing towards. Now, the ground clearance is high and so should not pose an issue for most kerbs in the city. But say a concrete/similar pillar or even a big flower pot that's positioned smack in the middle... Driving towards either of those raised no warnings. Others can test this.. Could be the vehicle I was given to test and I only tested for that (holding out for a full proper test drive) as I've pointed out earlier in the thread, it's a make or break decision for me. I saw 4 front sensors on mine, the others two you missed even closer to the ground, located upon a more sensible place.Wasn't aware I'm supposed to have a reference. Earlier this year, I remember testing the CX-5 and it too failed to detect low roadside kerbs and I can't remember how well it detected other objects or if I specifically tested for such as in the CRV. But I do remember being disappointed and decided to wait for the soon to be launched 2017 models. The incoming CX-5 shows 4 sensors up front vs the 2 on the outgoing model and the latest CRV. So we'll see about that when it launches. Theoretically, 4 is better than 2. On another note, the color for me is definitely Dark Olive Metallic. It looks quite good. For those interested in booking this color, was informed 3 - 4 months waiting time. But that production is being ramped up and so should be delivered sooner than later. Need not to worry actually, it is quite sensitive, it get triggered every time when motorcyclist passed by really near to my car during traffic light waiting. 4 front sensors, windscreen camera sensor and even a front radar for Collision Mitigation Braking System and Forward Collision Warning. There are whole bunch of active safety features up front. Even if you intend to bang the car in front also your car won't allow. No worried lah.

QUOTE(WiLyi @ Aug 5 2017, 12:56 PM) Hi, would like to ask, how does this pearl white different from other white color? Cos it needs 400 extra compared to the metallic colour It it just "Pearl White", nothing special. Just like other manufacturer, metallic paint need to pay extra as compare to solid paint and white with pearl metallic effect cost even more. Need to use more "metallic" coat, perhaps? Anyway, I like this Pearl White color, especially I've done coating, super bright and shine during day time, at night show a bit tint of yellowish.
