Sounds ok to me. I've got nothing from getting from Honda Kosmos Kar at Glemarie. My bro got RM800 from Jln 222/Templer dealer.

cool. rm800 discount is a pretty good deal. any SA contacts?? thanks~

His SA goes by the name Eddie. Anyway, my bro is in this forum with his nick "sysh".

RM800 discount deal is too little by now. Ask for more since you need to wait for so long.

My comments on the above
1) Cheap floor mat, the size might not be the same as that in the NHC. If you pay a bit more, you can go to the shop and ask them to cut the right size for the car. Will cost a wee bit more, but it will look great.

2) I think if you have read the thread in detail (or maybe the HC3) thread, I would explained my take on the PPS.
If you are thinking of PPS being the "miracle" solution to no-scratch, no-wash or stone-chip no-bird-dropping..then you are wrong. It doesn't protect any of those. What it does is an application of a layer of teflon which bonds to the paint which helps to keep the paint 'wax-looking'. ie. shiny and glossy. However it is still prone to the above if you don't wash it properly. e.g. if you leave the bird dropping on your car for a day or two, it will stain. IMHO, it's good and worth the money spent 'cos it certainly is easy to wash and dry with it on..and less effort if I had to wax my car every 3 months. Do note that for the PPS, you have to do a maintenance every 6 - 9 months and will set you back about RM100.

3) Yea, dashboard.. door panels, seats..the works.

4) Yup. You press the brake, it locks. You off the car, it will unlock. It doesn't have the function when you reach a certain RPM, it locks.

5) If you are interested, give me a PM. It's in Klang.

6) Boot-tray, it is good if you have groceries, dirty football boots etc and you wont wanna dirty your boot fabric. If you are not picky with non-Modulo stuff, then the imitation one is good enough. Side-step, not a necessity.. to avoid scratches, tell you passengers to watch out for it when they sit in ur car. Visor? The only reason why it might have "sound" is due to the air turbulence. But since the catalogue said that it's aero-dynamically designed, it 'shouldn't intrude into the cabin. You can try to ask your SA to give one or more free to you..but it all depends on ur neg. skills. Take note that what they give might be imitation.

7) RikeCool will set you back about RM1600. You need to get the specs though. The high spec one is decent.

8) TT!! Come come

i've asked this before but havn't got any reply yet, anyone thinking about installing auto cruise in their NHC? is it possible to do so? cause i've seen photos of NHC selling in other countries with this feature but malaysia version dun have.

Well, it depends. RM800 is better than RM500 or ziltch.
If you can get more, then great.. at the end of the day, it's all up to your neg. skills. Good luck
I got RM800 + Honda Golf Umbrella + T-Shirt. I will try to squeeze on some disc for Modulo stuffs if I can.
If you are interested, I can hook you up with my SA.

Honda City surpass the Toyota Vios in terms of sales volume?

1) When collecting car - I guess the most important is to check for scratches, bumps or dents... Cos once you leave the show room and you notice any paint chips or scratches, you may encounter problems in claiming warranty. You won't be able to ascertain whether these defects was from before you collected your car or after you took it if you don't check before hand....

2) Floor mat - Mine is the coil mat, similar to the 3M type. I got it on the first day I collected my car itself... My SA brought me to the place and I got it done for RM130.. Its cut out to fit the shape of my NHC floor.

3) I did my PPS for approx RM550. That's the price with a 20% group discount, as organised by chris_x. However, if i remember reading correctly, there was a post saying that Raymond, the shopowner will no longer be offering the 20% discount from March onwards. If that is accurate, PPS will set you back by approx RM680.

My personal opinion on PPS? I think there's some misconceptions on PPS, as people expect the dirt to basically wash off with water and the water to bead/run off the car perfectly... So far for my ride, the water beading effect isn't as good as when it was first treated, however, the gloss is still there. I think the main objective of PPS is to avoid having to wax, so I guess as long as the paintwork's gloss is still nice and shiny I'll be satisfied. Whether you still want to do it - its your call... Maybe you can come join us for TT this Friday and see for yourself our rides and ask the rest in person.!!

4) Yes, treatment for the dashboard plastic, etc. I think it includes treatment for the fabric as well..

5) Yup, autolock when all 4 doors is closed and when you step on the brakes.!

6) On the security lock, I'm sure sysh will be glad to help you. He's trying to gather as many ppl as possible to get a better discount!

7) Yup, you can ask for free from your SA. However, I understand that there's not much stock for the trunk trays & door visors. Unless you want to get the non-modulo ones.. For the boot tray, you can definitely get it for cheaper outside.

On sidesteps, the original ones are illuminated, and will set you back about RM600. Again, you can install the non-original ones if you want to protect your sidestep paint. A guesstimate - those should be priced in the region of RM200++??

Er, for visors.. mostly to allow you to wind down your windows a bit without letting rain, etc get in i guess (Others please correct me if i am wrong!). And yes, I've heard that your interior may be a bit louder with visors, especially when travelling at speed.

8) Oh ya, forgot about the tint.! I can't comment about RikeCool, as I am not familiar with the brand. For myself I got Ecotint on my ride. So far I can say I am satisfied with it... My SA helped me get a price of RM1800 for my Ecotint Raybarrier (front & back windscreen) and 6mm hybrid security tint film for my 4 windows.


I don't think its cos we don't want to reply, I think we don't have an answer to it.!! haha...

The best place to find out would be at your service centre, but my gut feeling tells me "NO". Even if it can be done, I don't think cruise control is something you should do outside of a Honda SC in case it causes you other problems.

I think the gap will be even bigger for the month of Feb 09

Previously, for every 3 Vios; Honda will sell 1 City but after the new gen launch it will most likely be the other way around.

ya... the honda shape is nice.... i love the engine because can spend every drop oil efficient.

Just got Lock Tech install on my car at pandan indah, it cost me RM 360.00. He said if i found 5 ppl included me to install Lock Tech, it will be RM 330.00. Actually the main distributor is at taman ehsan, just near by where i work. I did call n go to the shop, they quoted me RM380.00. Maybe they want to protect their dealers. Anyhow, they don't have stock atm. This morning i got a text from GLS Auto, they told me Lock Tech has arrived. So i reckon they supply all out to their dealers already. Need to wait 2 weeks to have ready stock.

Anyone wish to go for group purchase? I can try to press the main distributor to give more discount.

The true results can usually be seen 6 months down the road from now. If the City can still maintain its lead and momentum, then it will most likely do so for the rest of the year. But for now, I have doubts if the City can maintain its momentum. Afterall, there are cheaper trims of Vios to own and countries like Thailand is showing signs of auto sales slowdown, Malaysia will most likely be affected as well.

Attached herewith the Lock Tech which install on my car.










Enjoy
