How's it working so far?
What sort of fuel consumption do you get with it?
You put on those rims or did Neal and Massey? If you put them on yourself, did N&M tell you anything about voiding the warranty? |

Rory...
1. Fuel consumption is ok, (ill have to check the dash again... that display gives u so much info) but its a new car so its difficult to tell, meaning I hardly pay attention to it.
2. Before I even thought about putting these on, I made sure from Neal & Massy that they will still maintain the warranty. Its alloy 18's so they had no problem. I installed them at Master Serve (NM in a sense). As I had mentioned before they maintain the warranty on 17", 18" alloy and only 17" chrome.
X2...
I still have the stock rims and tires that came with the car.
A funny thing, the NM rep called me and asked me to bring the car in for a customer to see as they didnt have any in stock. Another rep jumped in the car with the customer and we drove off. While we were on the road he was like "You sure you have 18's? this ride feeling real good" The steering has not been affected either. The tires chosen kinda help with that. |

| I will have to take some interior pics, esp at night. The dash is stunning. All blue, a few people said it looks like the cockpit of an aircraft. |

| ^^^sorry if i am made u think otherwise but to answer your question, in roro when the new model comes down, its gonna have alot more features (as per the usual) as opposed to the local one (which is pretty loaded already) but I can get more at a more affordable price. Maybe the roro version may give us side impact and curtain airbags, 2.0 CVVT engine, cruise control, traction and stability control etc. for about $100k.....I'll grab one! U know what people generally say, we in the 3rd world get watered down cars as opposed to those in NA, Europe, Japan, Singapore, Australia etc.. |

Click mih 2nr ride for details.
I used the oil-filter adapter for the oil-pressure and oil-temp senders.
http://prosportgauges.com/oil-filter-adaptor-plate.aspx
I have an electrical gremlin problem that the dealership cannot replicate where if the a/c is on in the rain at night, my temp gauge climbs into the red, BUT the engine/water temp is actually normal.
So, I installed the Cyberdyne digi water-temp gauge so I can keep an eye on things and just totally ignore the stock gauge. I installed a water-temp sender radiator hose adaptor http://prosportgauges.com/water-temp-sender-radiator-hose-adaptor.aspx so I won't be using the stock sender or location in case the fault is there. |
