Dear All,

Earlier I posted query on color option.

Actually Blue color is not thaaat bad at all. I tried observing the road past few days and noticed a few cars with similar blue color. Such as Toyota Wish, Subaru, BMW, Mini,...these cars with the same blue color look great! Reinforced my decision.

However... car like proton saga (ancient version) or gen2 with the same color kinda made me change my mind again. Argh!

And it looks like the road will be flooded with PMM/Black in the next few weeks!

My question is, should in the end I pick Blue, will it affect future resale value.

Please advise. Thanks Guys! you all Rock!

Rgds, Cherry

It shouldn't affet the future re-sale value. If any, it will not be material
Anyway the Blue is quite nice, very unique. It's one of my choices too.
Depends on whether my SA can get my PMM before 31/3/09. If not, we'll see what other colours he can offer
before that tme period

I do agree with you. Blue without the kit may look dull, I'm kinda sure with the kits installed, it should stand out from the crowd.

I was wondering if there's any showroom that display all the colors?? So far at PJ ss16, USJ, Old Kalng and Glenmarie all are displaying Blue and Black only.

What happen to those units displayed during the launch? Shoved back to warehouse? Anyone knows?

Rgds, Cherry

I'm interested in getting the kit, cost approx 2k, should I tell my SA to install before delivery or wait? Should I start getting my desired car plate number now too?

Loan just approved yesterday!

If y'all notice, some pictures posted in the web are showing the USB jack is located behind the CD player. But the showroom unit has the jack below the a/c controls compartment.

Anyone know why?

cos our comes with CD inlet they call it, so the jack has to be at the bottom. while for thailand it doesnt has CD player, thats why the jack is behind the display lid.

No CD Player?

Earlier I was juggling colors between PMM and Blue. So I went to the showroom at Jln 222 as advised and had a good long look at both cars.

Here is my verdict....
Blue color gives the front section of the car stood out from the rest. The contrast of front grey section (with honda logo) vs blue body is very outstanding, plus drooling effect, hehe.

PMM gives me a boring feeling on the front section (not much contrast in color) but when I walked to the back and side of the car...fuiyoh!...elegant and sexy.

Black..you know..

This is gonna be a tough decision.

With polish effect, that's Polished Metal Metallic. smile.gif

I noticed there's some greenish color on PMM.

Ok. We've got our 30 confirmed buyer  nod.gif

It's good that you were able to reach 7k RPM. I wasn't able to hit > 4k 'cos of the busy road. Anybody know when does the iVtec opens?
Well.. HM can't really price their cars too low, it's supposedly their marketing strategy to be a "premium" brand. I'm happy that it didn't breach 90k.
But you are correct, the Modulo kit is way too expensive and it doesn't even come with the Modulo Grille.
But I think we cannot compare the pricing of other countries e.g. Thailand or India especially looking at our lovely tax structure. Look at Langkawi's price. RM60k only (E-Spec)

When did you book? Just today or a few days ago. And location? Just trying to determine the queue.
V-Cool or V-Kool? They're 2 different brands..

I wonder when will the tax and tariff structure for cars will change in Malaysia. All of us could have a better living standards.
