Mazda3 SP

[Ronnchee]

Oh... I forgot to add, I changed my rim to 17", and maybe that's the reason why my FC is only 10.2km/h for 1st tank.

 

Today went to JB, to pump another tank, forgot to see the final milage.

 

I am in sales, commercial property agent, run here and there, so milage is high. Friends told me should get a car with good FC .. but i didn't bother. must get a car i like, not the other way round.

[Cheekg98]

next time if i wanna sell my hse, i can ask u for help

[Ronnchee]

I don't do residential, no day no night, and burn weekends and public holidays.

 

I am 100% commercial agent, like you, work only office hour.

 

We top agent in Ascendas

 

You changed your rims ?

[Cheekg98]

nope ... i prefer to leave my ride to be in its original configurations

[Ronnchee]

No wonder your FC is 14km/l la ... I changed to 17" the very moment I got my car, so that I wont compare between 16" and 17".

 

You are surviving with stock audio ? You good man !!

[Cheekg98]

u got to travel most of the time, so a good audio is impt

Slightly different topic...

 

Does anyone know the difference between pressing the lock once, and pressing it a second time. I asked my SE but not very clear what she means.

 

My remote is integrated flip key type that includes windows folding mirror when you lock the car.

 

Thanks to you all.

[Huge]

Well i was told that if i press on my remote once, it will lock

 

but if i double press on the remote, it will double secure the door. so in an event when someone break the window, the thief will not be able to open the door.

 

Hope this helps

[Ronnchee]

single lock is locked outside, anyone inside still can open the door from within.

 

double lock is, inside and outside also cant open the door

Initially quoted $180, later backside itchy, add and add, in the end the damage was $450. Hssss, don't let my CO knows.

 

wah $450, what did u add to the audio system?

 

the breakdown.

installation of ICE from my previous car, $180, which comprised of front and rear speaker, pre-amp, 2 sets of amps, 1 sub-woofer.

installation of voltage stabliser, with 5 pt grounding $20

add rear coaxial speaker $150

add visor $45

add headlight and foglamp to white bulb $60

 

When to another place to tint my car, $220.

When to JB today to add strut bar, RM$220

change airhorn RM$18, from previous car

 

almost add boot neon light, but price cannot compromised

 

oh my god u've done so many things already

 

must let me listen to ur audio system next time

 

i wanted to do the audio but pocket empty

[Ronnchee]

My audio setup is amature standard. In fact the setup was in a mess, and need to go back to the installer to retify.

 

Of so many things done to my car, the most no regret is the RIMS

 

Well, we can meet up one day. How long have you been driving M3 ?

[En0203]

I like your spirit!

Buying car is not only about FC. Even if one buy a good FC car but dun like, I bet he won't be happy paying for it & having to face it in the long run. Since already pay so much for a car, why not get your fave car in your budget? FC is just a small part of overall costs.

With proper driving techniques,a bad FC car can get reasonable figures as well. So why bother? For e.g. Mazda3 can get 12+ consistently, personally verified. Is that bad?

[En0203]

[Law_ong]

[Sctl]
