Vios has much better stock sound system, 'built-in' antena, better cushion vs even Civic ( nod.gif, reported from a guy own both Civic 1.8 and Vios, what can I say).

Sadly, only your own experience matters. You should have already did some comparison before booking right?

Thank you so much for your opinion notworthy.gif .Yah,I did a lot of comparison before i made the decision.Sad case is just a lot of ppl keep bashing.
I was thinking is whether they cant afford a Vios so they only can critic on Vios.LoL.I just booked my car on 20/11/07 dont know when only can get my car!Im happy to join this family rclxms.gif

If U r not in a hurry, and plan to change ur car every 5 year.

I suggest U take ur car only on Jan 2008. Bcoz Dec 2007 car, sell on Jan 2008 , is already consider a 1 year old car ~!

The new Vios got a few bits and pieces of surprises that I found out which is nice such as ASL enable audio system, where the speed of ur car is link to ur Audio system. When U speed to a very fast pace, the audio system will adjust the volume automatically higher to cover the wind resistance noise.

After that when U slow down, the volume will readjust itself to a lower volume.

This system is available in other car ?

He said if i want 2008 car i need to wait until 2008 march! flex.gif Anyway Thank you for the advise/

Bro, U test ur top speed before ?

I haven't really test mine.

I ran it until 140kmph only bcoz got other family member in car when going back Johor.

The wind resistance noise seem very loud at 140kmph.

I rode in a Honda Civic the previous generation before the current one.

140- 160 still silent like nothing at all ~!

Other than that, I found that the Vios is bouncing on some part of the highway when traveling at 140 kmph.
Should I complain to the service centre or just the stupid PLUS highway condition ???

I'm shocked you said that the new vios is bouncy when travelling at 140kmph?Is this for real?and the the sound of the wind is loud?
i thought there was ASL right? shocking.gif

Tried 180kmph. Who the hell is the "they"?
From what I experiment, it has quite weird support for multisession disc. So most likely it willl detect the 1st few sessions, or even just the 1st session only.
Going slow and uphill with around ~2krpm, the engine noise is quite loud. Other than that, it is reasonably quiet.

Thank you bro,now i don't used multisession now no problem anymore thumbup.gif
