Boh...hoping next one. 3 bid dy.
1st bid, damn COE went to Audi2016.I know someone who bought XT at $13X last year when COE was higher.
Nope, mine is NA dark grey.
If COE softens to below $35K, NA should drop below $100K.
The car body colours quite limited but dark grey is nicer than black.
Black Diamond refers to extra sporty finishings & leather seat.
Got my XT a week ago, clocked ~500km. My experience with XT so far�:
�
- Came from saloon, XT sits higher, great view�with good forward visibility on the road.�
�
- Compared to my previous ride (06' Mercedes E, 160+hp/240NM), road/wind noise insulation of XT is acceptable. But,�have not�driven on NSHW yet. So, can't tell�how XT score�in road/wind noise at expressway speed.��
�
-�XT's 230+hp/350NM power is best delivered�smoothly. I think FC will deteriorates�significantly under hard acceleration driving style. Overall,�IMHO, FC is not the strength of XT.�����
�
- The AWD performs well, considered its height. Corners feel wheels well planted, with very little body roll. So far, not observed any�rattling sound, indicated a well built chassis/body. A pleasant surprise to�me, actually.�
�
- I replaced the stock tinted films, which I�felt the heat rejection�performance�did not meet my expectations.
�
-�When paired with my Android phone, the head unit can read (read out in voice)�my SMS and E-mails. The only�missing 'nice to have' is the GPS.
�
- The reverse camera is great, with 'green/yellow/red projection lines'.�
�
-�Overall and so far, a pleasant driving/owning experience. ����
Actually that silly Ah Seng advert is so irritating & cheapens the image of Subaru.
I agree. It is damn irritating.�

When the XT was first release around late early 2014, the proce was around $160k
The car body colours quite limited but dark grey is nicer than black.
Black Diamond refers to extra sporty finishings & leather seat.Actually most colors are pretty ok. I would have taken flat white if there was such an option. Silver, blue, pearl white, black would be ok for me too. Wife likes the dark grey and I find it nice too. Happy wife, happy life..

They need you as sugar daddy..................
Joke only hoh..

They have a 'Black Diamond' edition now??
Lol.....my bad. Must have been thinking of diamonds last evening.
Correction: It's 'Black Edition', a few thousands more for extra fittings.
Motor Image screw up, went down to Toa Payoh and then my agent found out some things not yet installed and set up. Collection delayed by a one day or two..
Bro u got the black edition?

Read somewhere that Glenn Tan is the voice of the Ah Beng in the advert and it was his idea. May have been interesting all those years ago circa 2005/2006 when the Ah Beng/Ah Seng advert was first used but they have milked it to death and its totally crass and low class.�
�
I saw an advert on US TV recently, �advertising Subaru cars and it played up the safety features of the Subaru car. So much classier than Glenn "Beng" Tan's idea of marketing Subaru cars.
�
But with the large number of Subaru cars on road now, he probably thinks his adverts did the trick �.....
�
cos since Ah Seng never bring in EyeSight3 and it's related safety features, so cannot place ad for safety mah, else makes like Volvo and Mercedes will laugh until die...
Bro u got the black edition?
I didn't see the car. Agent checked himself and noticed obvious things not installed and setup properly.What is the thing not install so that we can take note???

Actually the Forester safety features compared to others japanese car are very high already.
Only left the eyesight and lane departure missing. Likely with these 2 items added, the OMV will cross over $20k, which will definitely affect the sale number.
I can't isolate it as my wife do not drive and I have hard time driving and identifying the source of the sound. Driving me mad as it is consistent as long as speed is 95 and above. Confirmed not related to any loose items around glove box etc.
Anyone with similar experience?
Hi, may i know what brand of film u using? How much?
I went�with the�tinted film known to my experience for more than 10 years. (and the cost is a tiny fraction of the�COE nowadays).�But, please go with the one you already researched,�or have prior good experience.
I believe the old Chinese wisdom/saying : 'one cent money, one % quality'.

The new 2016 Outback will get the Rear Vehicle Detection System (RVDS) thingy and likely the associated Rear Cross Traffic Alert�and Blind Spot Detection features as its all relying on same equipment for RVDS. Initially I thought MI will increase the price but they held on to same price....
Just sharing...

I remember reading somewhere got bros asking about the headlight having the auto turning feature. This video has demo (at about 2.30 mins into the video).

Booked my NA at below $100K (with the typical in-house discounts) during the $38K CAT B COE period in Feb. Just collected the new ride last week and I'm still in the midst of enjoying it.�
Guys, any one have vibration or fluttering of lose item sound at the dash area when u drive at 90-100kmh

It's not a vibration/fluttering sound for me, but I have been hearing a rather soft intermittent clicking sound somewhere in between the front seats and the gearstick. This has happened after driving for >10 to 20 km.�
�
Like you, the sound is irritating the shit out of me. �
Can any owner advise the audio formats supported on the HU?
�
Thanks.

Accordingly, it supports mp3, wma, aac.�
Can anyone advise on whether I can look for another salesperson instead of the one who brought me on a test drive, if I decided to book ?
collected my ride last Sat & enjoy the ride so far. There will be a new owner workshop this coming Sat:-)
what is the FC for NA and Turbo version ? Thanks

If it is within a month of your test drive, the new SE will have to split the commission with the "test drive one". �After one month, all reset. �This is what i understand from a SE in MI. �They have the info of your test drive date in their system. �

Also see many XT on the road. Wonder what it the ratio between NA and XT

I received the invitation for this Sat's workshop but have not collect car yet. Anyone else in the same situation as me?�
Collected my NA yesterday. First drive is 12.5 km per litre, 90% expressway. Wonder if it is more economical to pay $2 more ERP to take the 90% expressway route.
Also see many XT on the road. Wonder what it the ratio between NA and XT
Driving XT for 3 weeks with mileage 700km. Current average with 50/50 highway/urban is 10.2km/L. Still running in engine, so normal driving with no hard acceleration and highway speed kept to 90-100km/hr. Short burst to test overtaking occasionally.
Overall still quite satisfied with FC as compared to my Kia Sportage which average 9km/L. Hope to achieve even better FC after running in the XT.�

Morning CTE traffic cannot consider as highway lah.You mean your is 11.6 - 12.0 litres /100km as per the indicator? That quite bad considering 70pct highway. Maybe ur leg too itchy liao is it. Haha
Does the car come with speed sensing auto door lock and auto dimming rear view mirror?
�
no and no.
Witnessing more and more forester on the road..
�
Quite swee.. Price also competitive.

Yes. �I will be going to the workshop this Sat. After my registration, received a broadcast sms from MI today informing that the registration is closed due to overwhelming response. ��

Can any bro here who attended the workshop share about the workshop. �Thanks

Thank you for this info. I'm rather pissed off by the one who served me last weekend; nonchalant attitude. Didn't even get a follow up call from him.....I was contemplating whether to place order for the XT this round. His loss.

2015-2016 Forester 2.0XT vehicles built between April 10, 2015 and October 20, 2015
2015-2016 WRX vehicles built between April 10, 2015 and October 21, 2015

Check your agreement. I recall seeing the T&C in the agreement. If I recall, it costs $1 (or 2) thousand to change the colour. my sale exec reminded me before I signed the agreement.
are you referring to window visors? any weblinks to show the pics? take note that windows visors may cause wind noise at high speed.
are you driving the pre-facelift or FL model? are you doing soundproofing for ICE or just to cut down general car noise? if it's for the latter, the FL model is supposed to come with better soundproofing like thicker window glass, better rubber seals, insulation materials, etc...�
�if it is purely stick on with adhesive type, may fly off at high speeds. OEM and better replicas usually come with clips as well to prevent that from happening.
Yeah. got it today.
End April collection.
The article said the recall will likely spread to US, Canada, Australia and European models. Wish Singapore not affected.
Is your car manufactured during that period? If not nothing to worry about. Even if it is, Subaru will just recall and it's seems a small problem which is easily rectifiedif it is purely stick on with adhesive type, may fly off at high speeds. OEM and better replicas usually come with clips as well to prevent that from happening.
Agreed. Had those stuck on using only 3m doublesided tape. After a while, it just comes loose. Didn't want it to be road hazard so removed them all but left behind sticky tape marks which were hard to removeNot rushing him also. He did msg mi on getting coe. But car eta i need to ask and he also not sure when is the car eta
Which model did u book and when did u book it?

my Msian kaki driving a 2015 wrx (motorimage unit) said he called Msia MI up and�was told�said their units are part of the recall batch (for inspection). Not necessarily the batch with the faulty part fm the supplier but will recall to check.
After full payment, registered car and take 2 weeks to install? Or land and take 2 weeks to install then collect full payment? If its scenario 1, will they compensate u $600 for that 2 weeks depreciation?
