dandeana21 wrote:not sure if it's worth it to upgrade to SX coz all EX and SX models got ESP.. Prob good to get EX and den do up the rest on ur own esp if you want to do a lot of changes on ur car and this way can be more cost effective? unless ur SE gives more freebies wor.. the next few differences are quite aesthetics - dashboard, exhaust pipe, different buttons for the aircon mode.. for chrome handles, can get from outside and will be cheaper..

From Joepele:

For those who is comparing the EX vs the SX...

Here's a brief summary of my thoughts.

Tele Steering wheel... How often do you adjust it?

17" rims? Y
pay more to lower your FC? If you want more bling... trade in when you
collect your ride. The stock rims are 11kg each.

6 disk changer... do you need it? Get an IPod / 8gb thumb drive... can get more songs in there.

Leather seats? It's more like PVC for God sake.

ESC? Well... how fast do you take your corners?

Chrome Handles? Some places sells them for 40-60 bucks!

Shadow effect dials... that one... well... I've got to admit... it's nice.

Env Control... do you really need it?

what is shadow effect dials? got such thing meh?

in terms of freebies,

A) $200 rebate + system 6 paint protection
B) Rikecool solar film premium 25

A or B is better?
new car need to do system 6 paint protection so fast?

i will take A.
solar film can do normal one outside lor...
if not just park under shade. lol

both aslo not worth it .... and cost 6 k more ... for the above ???

Just to keep all of us updated,

Re: Next shipment

by reyesong Yesterday at 6:23 pm

SE called to tell me got EX reserved fo me....
but u guys said no shipment for EX at all on 11Sep?

zhuzhumao wrote:ya 6k more.. rikecool i see the website cost $900 wor.. im thinking B is a better deal..

ya i made the choice le. will go for SX.. did a detailed calculation on the august omv value and the premium percentage and found that c&c actually earn lower for SX and the omv different is about 3k.. so i will be paying about 2.3k more (if i deduct away the $700 that i will be topping up for my ex leather seat) for sx and getting the car earlier.. did a thoughout thought and trying to convince myself that it is worth it haa.. hopefuly can make it for a sjs car plate which look so cute to me hahaa..

i booked at LK... booked in jul. got the COE in Jul too..

I think my batch is the 11 or 14 sep batch. I asked her about the rest of the EX shipment since most of the kakis has yet to received calls from their SEs. She only told me this shipment has limited EX(A) stocks and most of them are blue.
