Cook my sock Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 Comparing the mid and top spec 4wdhybrid, the only thing missing for me is Bluetooth and the perks of a larger screen. I really like the cream interior. Is it possible to upgrade the screen or does it really not make cost sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Comparing the mid and top spec 4wdhybrid, the only thing missing for me is Bluetooth and the perks of a larger screen.

Is it possible to upgrade the screen or does it really not make cost sense The two-tone cream interior looks luxe but is gonna be a bear to keep klean and will show dirt and wear much more easily.

Ace of Pop Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Is it only me.?. Ask a Thai what KPL they get and the reply is Why.?. No Idea.!! Ask a Ferang and listen for an hour. You're asking the wrong question to them Ask them how many Baht per KM it costs them to run their car - that one they will know Nah ,Daddy Pays or it booked on a Card. Does Your Mrs Know.?. The Thais only know the H.P repay. figure generally. Then ask a Ferang for a loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cook my sock Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 The HP way isn't as stupid as it sounds, as long as it's not with a loanshark, like the poor farmers have to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAS21 Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 The HP way isn't as stupid as it sounds, as long as it's not with a loanshark, like the poor farmers have to use.Yes, if it's 0% then probably okay ... anything approaching an advertised 0.99% NO.

IMHO Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Comparing the mid and top spec 4wdhybrid, the only thing missing for me is Bluetooth and the perks of a larger screen. I really like the cream interior. Is it possible to upgrade the screen or does it really not make cost sense It doesn't make financial sense to try and change the infotainment system - nor does it make financial sense to do an aftermarket interior color change. So the choice is: Better infotainment, or the color interior you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cook my sock Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hey the new CX9 interior is rather nice http://s2.paultan.org/image/2015/11/mazda_cx-9_2015_interior_04.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they assemble it in ASEAN though, it's just going to be too much money for a Mazda here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cook my sock Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Yup with a 2.5l it'll be expensive no matter what, with the new tax Surprised Mazda still stick with ye olde dials tho Edited November 19, 2015 by Cook my sock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jitar Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 The CO2 tax will probably be better for this model than the 50% hit the old model gets for >3.0L / 220hp. As IMHO says, the import duty will kill it. Pity cause its a good size wagon that's not too hard to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, if they could release the 2.5L turbo and keep the top spec version under 2.5M, I'd probably consider it. They probably won't be able/want to though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook my sock Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Screen sitting on the top? Similar to Audi and looks a whole lot better integrated than Mercedes awkward screen imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cook my sock Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 What I don't like about the interior is the way the lower control area ( gear shift/ control knob) sits on top, a floating wooden slab .. Just doesn't quite work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
