Of course, midnite also can as long as your SE is happy to arrange for you. My opinion is dun rush when collect the car, take your time to inspect the car, sign the paperwork and listen the lecture from your SE.

that's very true, when I collect my ride, the motor for the left side mirror is not working.
and i can't adjust the left mirror.
luckily during office hour, so quickly send to workshop and found that the wire connection is loose.
 :mad: end up i took about 1-2 hr extra for the collection.

My Latio collected!!! So lovely :yehyeh: :drool: :love:

Never test drive before, so today took my mistress and rode her for the first time. All I can say is OUTSTANDING!! :thumbsup: Handling wise very very easy, not much effort, even when U turn or 3 point turn. Any ladies try Latio will sure like it a lot.

Very responsive car, listens to my footing very well when I need her to rev up. Very good driving experience. Its a 1.5 ton car, yet during handling it is so much easier to handle than a Honda Jazz

Overall rating, driving experience for a 4AT definitely better than Altis, Vios, Jazz, City and Avante. Though the sound proofing can improve a little.

nope, drove colleague's. Like driving a TIN CAN  :prrr:

Latio can feel heavy but dun feel the handling weight. Light as a feather on steering, extremely responsive, unlike Altis and Avante, when u ram the pedals can hear sound but not much movement. Latio roars when she needs to, not sure how Latio with CVT would be like, guess more or less same, 4AT can be a little rough when going uphill revving...and feeling her change gears. On normal roads easy as a pony

Hi,  I thought many bros/sis here said Latio is quiet but you seem to have a different view.  Can share what you meant by "sound proofing can improve a little".  Is the road noise or engine noise you referring to?  Is it really that loud?

Hi sound proofing can improve a lot not little. If you want to do it can find our bro Vyprez, he is a expert in it. His name is famous in this forum. His small name is (forgetful one).

Title: Re: Collecting Latio
Post by: HumbleCar on May 01, 2008, 04:00:10 PM
I think most probably it is a 3M alike, not the real thing.  My SE also said 3M, but it is not the real thing.  Last time I bought the real 3M, the few pieces were very heavy and very dense.  What my SE gives me now can see the base of the pieces, not very dense.  They are also much lighter.  Anyway, serve the purpose can already la.  Better than nothing.

ckmckm,

I did a test drive and quite impress with the car. Hence, decide to get it.

Guys,

if you dun mind, what items does your SE throws to you free ?

I got the following for my Latio Sports (non-premium): -
1. 2.5 yrs free serving/maintainance package.
2. Body kit
3. Leather seat and sports rims.
4. Visor.
5. Solar film.
Title: Re: Collecting Latio
Post by: ckmckm on May 04, 2008, 04:15:13 PM
ha ha.
feel excited for all of you guys that's going to collect car man.
 :yehyeh:
i managed to get v-kool solor film, 3M quality like car mat, paint colour pen from my se.
i actually upgrade my solar film, meaning i paid a bit more to get a better grading from v-kool.
your se can give you the v-kool, but i paid a bit more to upgrade the existing v-kool solar film to a better grading.
lesser uv and heat is entering my car now.
ha ha.

If u wanna 3m alike car mat u can look for Leon Tay. I think he selling $55 for a set of 5pcs exclude car boot.

& if u wanna original 3M u can look for Mr Ong. He is selling at $65 for a set of 5pcs exclude car boot too.

U can go & search for their thread.

I paid about 300 dollars more to upgarde the grade of v-kool to a higher level.
the effect is good.
but one thing about our front windscreen
as time goes by tiny stone will hit your windscreen and you can claim insurance to change a new windscreen.
but for the solar film i don't think can tranfer to the new windscreen and that's mean you have to paid more to get a new solar film for your new front windscreen

I prefer the 3pcs set (i.e. one big piece for the rear row).  Neater as there is no folding and tucking in here and there.  If falls nicely in place.  Got the "Nissan" word on the driver piece.

i know... but if i register this friday, i should get 8000 series lor..

Ah Boy, the LTA web states that the current numbers that will be assigned randomly is SJE7481D to SJE8134A (Both Vehicle No. Inclusive).  By friday, it may be 8xxx to 9xxx series.  Hence, you have to ask your SE to monitor so as to ensure that you will get 8xxx series.  Otherwise, may end up with the 9xxx series, which is not bad too.  My SE told me that she registered mine and another customer together.  The other customer got a 3-digit number and mine is a 4-digit, 1xxx series.  The computer system assign randomly, within the range of numbers.
