Honda Vezel part 49

    Bro, i pegged vezel to compare with qashqai and juke. During the times when altis was around 60-70k, qashqai was 80plus k if i am not wrong, though omv was about similar. No doubt altis has a higher omv after taking cevs rebate into consideration, but to me vezel is a compact suv, which usually there is a premium price to such compared to sedan. Not to mention the higher specs and better fc even compared to altis. Plus kawaii vs sawadeeka...

    Bro I guess it is different strokes for different people. For those of us with Vezel, will have our own stories to tell one day. We cannot convert everyone...just my 2 cents

    ya the specs is so much better tham altis. This is 1 of the reason it's attractions.
    so far ut ticks all the check boxes with 1 exception...
    the only gripe i have (heard) is sound insulation or the lack of it. Engine sound can be quite intrusive.
    Actually am arranging to test drive it with my se friend.

    Now boils down to 4 options
    vezel
    altis
    kia k3
    volvo s60 (short to medium term drive)

    All eyes are on Sister LEEST's engine mounting sound problem. since workshop has fetermined that is the culprit causing the vibration sound,and is not under their warranty,we would wanna see how her PI settlw this case..

    Sis LEEST, any follow so far from LECO PRESTIGE? or chill during CNY 1st then settle thereafter. by now the SE or boss should have given you a temporary answer to put ur mind as ease i tink. continue knock knock knock..may damage other parts,albeit a very small damage..but "sim tia"
    yes,we have fellow bros alredy buying with deals set with confirmed 15k rebate pricing,lowest of lows with no top up. and COE rebate set at last closing COE price.find those and u wun go wrong. if happen cev rebate turns out to be 10k,u have benefitted

    note that dealers change their pricing strategy from time to time..or at least the clever ones do..this is to line up to their own orders and shipment timings. if have ready stock,sure wud price low and move it fast. i wud go for those.[/quo

    Dear Bro, I yet contact my PI coz not sure should I really get WS to "operate" my car. NOT only heart pain, oso worries tat more issue after operation.

    I am shocked buyers are still considering Vezel with a questionable warranty only available from PIs when there are better value for money options out there with 5 yr AD warranty which are bigger than the Vezel. Must be the die hard blinded Honda badge lovers. Sorry for my abruptness and frankness. I AM INDEED SHOCKED.

    LOL...seriously? Do you even know the difference between the HRV brought in by KM and the JDM Vezel from the PIs?

    If KM brings in the HRV which is EXACTLY the same as the Vezel sold by the PIs spec for spec. Then YES i do agree somewhat that considering PIs might not be the best decision.

    Actually do most people claim their warranty?. Esp for jap rides?my current jdm honda ride has not claim any warranty at all for the past 9 years while my previous euro ride has claim twice. I guess I am more willing to trust honda and the savings I get from buying a vezel as compared to Hrv should be enough to cover me for any whatever repair Liao..

    No need 2b sry, everyone free to express their opinion here. I m not die hard honda fan but I opine vezel is one value for money car tt quite unmatched for certain features if u compared cars in similar price range. B open, go chk out first.

    Bro, are you from KM? Or perhaps you never tasted the difference btw AD and JDM. Otherwise your comments may not be valid unless you tasted and not just hearsay. I am lucky enough to own cars from BM, KM and JDM from PI for both makes. You think the 5 yrs warranty covers everything? I encountered sawadeeka made which suspension gave way within 1st yr, air intake sensor faulty, exhaust manifold leak. No doubt they changed my suspension because under warranty but if you wana change the second time, then good luck to you as they will tell you wear and tear hence not covered. As for my exhaust manifold leakage and air intake sensor faulty, the AD's "top notch" workshop told me nothing is wrong as their so called up to date diagnostic kit said so. Just simply plug in and told me see...nothing was detected. I was also very shocked!! And it is true, unless u r into heavy modding, otherwise jdm easily last more than 5 years, or even till 10 yrs if you service and maintain properly. And yes, please read up the difference btw AD and jdm version. Specs are usually different and not to mention paying 10K more for a lousier specs. Furthermore PI are not giving 3 yrs warranty. You can argue that what if PI closed etc, true to some sense that is a risk but I believe to most, it is a calculated risk. Having tried both before, I rather stick to jdm. I am indeed shocked too that you were shocked.

    To join in the fun, I had not brought an AD car before. My current ride, Axio, only changed the brake pad after 7 years of driving. Light bulbs are still original stock bulb and FC are still hovering around 16km/L; daily about 90km for ferrying wife And myself to work. chillax. one man meat, another man's poison.

    Havent driven S model, but i wud agree with u,perhaps cos of the electric motor and i-dcd. I love the performance more than just insulation though, but that's for me and my subjective opinion. Cruising wise totally no problem! :0)

    Hi bro, no PI bringing in moonroof or AWD version yet.

    We are still yearning to see the 1st person who is willing to special indent the fullest & highest spec Vezel Hybrid into Singapore.

    My rich friend has been verbally contemplating but no action yet, i will continue to niao him.

    One small question:

    How do you find the rear seats of the Vezel? My impression is that they are pretty stiff and not so well padded. Is it my own impression or is it the case?

    (Hv narrow down to a choice between Mazda3 and Vezel for wife's ride, which is due to retire graceful after almost 10 years of service)

    mazda 3.
    cos u said it's for wife ride. 1st easy to adapt to adapt for lady. 2nd Buy from ad, servicing and all is fuss free.3rd and this is just me la. After feeling the vezel. I tot the metal sheet can be better made. But this will come with a weight penalty especially that the displacement is only 1.5 litre
    price wise i think not much difference.
    no offense to fellowers here. But buying from ad do has its merits.

    also i found the rear space of the vezel quite narrow. Especially if u have to ferry 5 people.

    i love mazda 3 for it's super sexy looks and stance and that Soul Red OMG! But when u wanna attempt to compare seating space bro,i dun tink is a good candidate. When i molested it in e showroom, it was very squeezy throughout the cabin,in the end i only tested the mazda 6 wagon. Loved it! But space wise also lost to my ex-Accord Euro S (JDM spec)...Mayb CX5? However cx5 is also not in the same segment as vezel,only e cx3 is which IMO CMI in terms of space. While CX5 is overpriced.

    My initial feedback on e rear vezel seats were also stiff becos upright seating. not until my friend showed me that it can be reclined further. bring the centre armrest/cup holders down..perfect. My views..do try for urself

    bro..i gave up on AD liao seriously. For the so-called piece of mind which they take advantage of bit by bit during servicing,we pay a hefty,not worthy premium upfront including interests with loan taken up. was having conversation w my aunt last week who worked in top mgt BM SG for 12 yrs. Retired yrs ago. She told me,unfortunately as a big orgn and trusts already built,it is all about business. People who are not "car affluent" in SG are abundant (she heads the marketing dept btw) From reactive sales figures,pple jump on the slaughter wagon very quickly once you throw in added warranty,servicing packages and upgrades "worth many thousands" that probably only cost an extra 1k more.

    okok..i exaggerated on the vocab and delivery of information above as shared by my aunt,no fault of hers.. but well..many many "happy" shortchanged owners out there..like i once was myself.

    But for this i quote...
    "we would rather gain market share by cutting margins from car sales. The big recurring income with high margins is at the post-sales segment."

    I am shocked buyers are still considering Vezel with a questionable warranty only available from PIs when there are better value for money options out there with 5 yr AD warranty which are bigger than the Vezel. Must be the die hard blinded Honda badge lovers. Sorry for my abruptness and frankness. I AM INDEED SHOCKED.


    I am a AD person all along but I changed my current AD ride to Vezel this time round. Was considering between QQ1.2, HRV and Vezel. In the end, I chose Vezel simply becoz it's makes the most sense value for money wise. Had a chat with someone from KM and his frank opinion was HRV spec just can't cut it given its price. It is just not priced competitive enough to capture the market. With the kind of specs that HRV is equipped with, it should be priced cheaper or at least the same as JDM X- model and not (for my case), 15k more at that moment I made my decision.

    Your views on 'value for money' in my opinion is very much misguided. To each his own though.

    (Hv narrow down to a choice between Mazda3 and Vezel for wife's ride, which is due to retire graceful after almost 10 years of service)

    My wife chose Vezel for the following reasons:

    Rear cabin feels larger
    Rear floor feels less vibration compared to vezel
    Easier to get on and off
    Engine cut off feels less vibration comparwd to mazda3
    Mazda3 too pricey then. Too high premium. AD's margin ridiculously high for a lesser omv. But now may be different.
    FC for vezel better
    Though i believe in mazda skyactiv, but not my wife.

    Being a previous owner of a 2.4 crv, I find vezel acceptable in terms of space and performance actually.

    Havent driven S model, but i wud agree with u,perhaps cos of the electric motor and i-dcd. I love the performance more than just insulation though, but that's for me and my subjective opinion. Cruising wise totally no problem! :0)


    Ya maybe becos of the electric motor.. Still waiting for Coe to drop more before going in to buy and deciding between s and hybrid is a headache.. If cat b Coe is very near cat a I will go for hybrid..hope to join u guys soon..

    Just a question about the touch screen. What type of touch screen does the vezel come with? Is it the same as what the hrv has? And does it supoort the Honda link feature?

    Yeah. My sentiment as well. The ah pek element was the reason why I told SE I dont want silver. And se told me they had 10pcs in the port. Of which 9 are silver and 1 white.

    Wah, good, I am planning to get a silver Vezel, for cooler and easy cleaning.

    BTW, which PI is it ?

    Original from Japan difficult to use locally as the language is Japanese and radio frequency is different.

    i sent an an enquiry to japan malaysia to check whether can purchase the HRV 7 inch headunit.. still waiting for their reply.

    also one of the Pi i went actually say if i want the original headunit they can help to bring in and the radio freq is ok as can add in a convertor to "convert".. my current jdm ride using the org headunit the radio freq is ok just that the number display is not correct.. e.g class 95 is display as 85..

    I have not heard of any WS which is willing to offer extended warranty after 3-5 yrs. I thought it would not make economic sense as engine wear will start set in, and it would be risky depending on how the owner takes care of the car during that period. Even if a WS offers it, I am sure that pre-requisite would be very stringent.

    I just find out that you can close the air-con vent at the passenger side by shifting the air-con vent lever to the extreme left after driving the Vezel for 4 months :-)

The attached pic is the HRV with Modulo body kit�(V model - highest specs) and its color is "Ruse Black Metallic" [sunny]�It comes with original 7 inches head unit which I find that it is very nice as I don't like the aftermarket HU (too small to fit in the big opening hole in Vezel).

    my existing hybrid and 2nd hand ex-cu2 was warrantied by them as well,easily bought by PI who sold me. I have yet to find out for older cars,what criteria they need. Or if i have alredy been with them and they know e maintenance history,isit easy to renew.

    Hmmm. Realize when I accelerated slowly while moving off, some function (Not sure if it is part of CTBA) activated with beeper to cut off my acceleration.

    My last experience with CTBA was with strong loud beeping and brakes automatically applied to a stop.

    This time round, I accelerated at close proximity and a softer beep sounded and acceleration is cut no matter how hard you accelerate...� [grin]

    Just to share my experience while driving in Malaysia last week. My travel to Port Dickson & back clock 650km. Pump Esso 98, inflate 235/220 front/rear tyre and switch off Econ mode to get more power. Traffic jam everywhere but when clear, manage to run average speed of 110km/hr. When needed to overtake, zoom to 130km/hr easily. Can feel vezel is readily eager to zoom even faster. No issue with high center of gravity. Ride very stable. Took a sudden sharp corner in PD and no rolling feel. Giving up idea to install strut bar after this experience.

    Cruise control was good to use when open road. Able to rest my leg for a while.Cruising at 100km/hr.

    Using 0w30 EO is very good. Engine quiet, smooth and very responsive. Road noise was louder in certain section but was acceptable. Notice when traveling between 80-100km/hr gives better FC than 110 km/hr and above. My overall FC for this trip is abt 17.5 km/l, considering slow traffic along the way is very good.

    Caught in jam on 2nd link to Malaysia immigration for 2 hours. Activate brake hold and deactivate CTBA and Start/Stop to rest leg.

    Saw a Malaysia HRV over take me, going at 140-150 km/hr.

    For our Bros thinking of which PPS to buy, may I suggest that you consider the total cost over the next few years since there will be touch ups and re-coating (assuming that you want to maintain the shine)? It would give a better indication of which product to select from. My opinion is that Ceramic Pro may be expensive in terms of initial outlay but considering that the company continue to warranty its shine for next few years with just $100 (wash, touch up and inspection) per year, it may be more cost effective.

    Wah, to me, they r really good! But comes with a big price tag. Not sure what packages r offered, was quoted verbally 1300plus for 3 layers and i saw fellow vezel owner here paid 1500 for 5 layers

    i go for budget hee, fraction of the price also 5 layers, results are fantastic, just cleaned off 4 drops of bird poo this morning, double spray and double wipe, done!! Lovin it!! I will go back for touch up and add 2 more coats every year.

    Mind to share the contact bro?

    For our Bros thinking of which PPS to buy, may I suggest that you consider the total cost over the next few years since there will be touch ups and re-coating (assuming that you want to maintain the shine)? It would give a better indication of which product to select from. My opinion is that Ceramic Pro may be expensive in terms of initial outlay but considering that the company continue to warranty its shine for next few years with just $100 (wash, touch up and inspection) per year, it may be more cost effective.

    Oh i thot ceramic pro touch up is free, warranty lifetime.

    My Honda Fit also has moon roof and it will make u feel shiok in the first few months only. But after that I only open it once in a blue moon [sleeping]

    probably thats why they call it a moon roof. You only use it once in a blue moon.. [smash]

    Just to share my experience while driving in Malaysia last week. My travel to Port Dickson & back clock 650km. Pump Esso 98, inflate 235/220 front/rear tyre and switch off Econ mode to get more power. Traffic jam everywhere but when clear, manage to run average speed of 110km/hr. When needed to overtake, zoom to 130km/hr easily. Can feel vezel is readily eager to zoom even faster. No issue with high center of gravity. Ride very stable. Took a sudden sharp corner in PD and no rolling feel. Giving up idea to install strut bar after this experience.

    Cruise control was good to use when open road. Able to rest my leg for a while.Cruising at 100km/hr.

    Using 0w30 EO is very good. Engine quiet, smooth and very responsive. Road noise was louder in certain section but was acceptable. Notice when traveling between 80-100km/hr gives better FC than 110 km/hr and above. My overall FC for this trip is abt 17.5 km/l, considering slow traffic along the way is very good.

    Caught in jam on 2nd link to Malaysia immigration for 2 hours. Activate brake hold and deactivate CTBA and Start/Stop to rest leg.

    Saw a Malaysia HRV over take me, going at 140-150 km/hr.

    Hi, believe�I saw you last week while waiting at Wlands custom counter�...nice car you have !!

    At that price, it is worthy of consideration, but do check with the dealer on the catches and conditions.

    Imho, there's never a "good price"...so long as you are comfortable with it. As you may have noticed, PI prices fluctuate quite significantly, and as many bros have recommended, do visit a few dealers to get a feel of it...just my 5 cents...

    Rebate Should be back to back, based on 57k on last closing. i.e rebate level set at 57k.

    X model body price 46-48k

    S body price 49-51k

    Use COE add to body price shud be a gd keen offer now with standard freebies.

    Brudders & Sisters, while the prices listed here sounds very tantalizing, please be informed that there is a balance between COE cap, COE rebate, COE bidding or COE guaranteed, etc.....

    Thus, do not take the prices at face value. Dive into the details that may include accessories, loan requirements, company providing warranty, etc....

    Please trade the price delta with caution... the deals will be very confusing to a layman so end of the day, should not cry that one is cheated because that definitely is not the case, just complex terms and conditions :)

    BTW I am not a dealer of motor vehicle.

    I notice that MOVA automative is one of the PIs selling this car.

    MOVA has its own workshops.� I wonder why MCFers didn't consider MOVA?

    As far as i rem, MOVA has been around for a long time and pretty big company.

    I have no relations or personal interests with this PI.� Just my observation.

    Bro, why front 235 psi and back 220? I thought we should follow the door instruction? 220 front and 210 back? haha...


    For long distance, I normally pump a little more for better gripping. Came back and pump to my normal usage of 220/200 front/rear. Prefer a softer ride in SG.

    i agree. my comment previously was a bit slipshot as i was reiterating previous long posts by myself and other bros & sis.

    Since we are paying 6 figure sums for entry level cars,we need to dissect all e costs vs value received or receivables.

    Apologeese if there is any confusion. in any case,dun rush into a deal
