Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) and Galaxy A8+ (2018) Launched in Malaysia

[Tech & Gadgets]
Samsung Malaysia Electronics launched the new Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) & A8+ (2018). (L-R):• Liew Kian Meng, Head of IT & Mobile Business, Samsung Malaysia Electronics• Yoonsoo Kim, President, Samsung Malaysia Electronics• Yoo Jin Hyun, Business Director, IT & Mobile Business, Samsung Malaysia Electronics
Headed over to SkyBar in Traders Hotel Kuala Lumpur on 17 January 2018 for Samsung Malaysia Electronics’ launch of its all new Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) and Galaxy A8+ (2018) smartphones. The new phones are designed for fun seekers to capture every moment brilliantly, and feature a Dual Front Camera and it is IP68-rated to protect itself from water and dust.
“We are delighted to host a pool party to welcome 2018 and at the same time, reveal the new Samsung Galaxy A8 and Galaxy A8+! We understand that millennials today enjoy documenting and sharing their experiences on social media, so Galaxy A8 and A8+’s Dual Front Camera ensure all selfies captured – whether in or out of the water – are flawless; allowing users to readily upload and share their memories on social media. Selfie enthusiasts, Galaxy A8 and A8+ are made especially for you!” said Mr Yoonsoo Kim, President of Samsung Malaysia Electronics.

A first for Samsung, the Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018) feature a Dual Front Camera to snap superior selfies. With the 16MP+8MP F1.9 Dual Front Camera, which is made up of two separate cameras, users can switch between the two to take the type of selfie they want – from close-ups to portrait shots with a clear and crisp background.  The Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018)’s includes technology from Samsung’s flagship smartphone models, and includes the advanced Live Focus feature allows users to easily adjust the depth of field (for ‘bokeh’ effect) before or after the photo is taken.
The advanced features of both the Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018)’s front and rear cameras provide sharp images, even in low-light conditions with F1.9 and F1.7 aperture. The new devices also allow users to customise photos with fun options, from adding stickers or highlighting a dish with Food Mode. The 16MP F1.7 rear camera, is touted to provide crisp, detailed, and vibrant photos that are good enough to be shared with others as it is.
A very big plus point is that both smartphones are IP68 water and dust resistance (based on test conditions of submersion in up to 1.5 meters of fresh water for up to 30 minutes), and can withstand the elements, including sweat, rain, sand and dust, which allows users to snap underwater pool photos or answer calls in the rain.
Shaky video footage is minimised with video digital image stabilisation (vDIS) technology, and with an added hyperlapse feature, users can now create time-lapse videos that can record, tell and share even longer stories.
Both the devices also allow users to glance through notifications thanks to the Always On Display, without unlocking the phone. Another useful function is Samsung Pay which makes payment simple, secure, and convenient – all it takes is one swipe and one fingerprint scan.
The Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018) are powered by 3,000mAh and 3,500 mAh batteries respectively, with 4GB / 6GB RAM memory and storage of 32GB and 64GB for both devices respectively. Not only that, other flagship-type features offered by Samsung’s two latest smartphones include Bixby, Dual Messenger and storage expansion via SD card slot.

[Event]
Whisky Appreciation Evening With Edrington & AsiaEuro Malaysia
Right after registering we were served our first round of Macallan! Now that’s how every party should start!
Drink University…now that’s a rather strange name for a club. But well with lots of Macallan flowing and pretty promoter girls who cares about the name. Now what we thought was going to be a rather formal sit-down whisky appreciation evening on 24 October 2013 turned out to be a full-blown party to mark AsiaEuro’s  official whisky distribution partnership with Edrington at the Drink University with sexy female water drummers, Dennis Lau on the violin, and a hot DJ spinning.
The party featured cocktails such as the The Famous Grouse’s Famous Fling and Highland Park Old Fashioned, as well as The Macallan Perfect Serve. There was also a spread of canapes to go along with the drinks however as we came from our review atHugo’s on 6 (you can read about that here – https://timchew.net/2013/11/06/casual-dining-hugos-on-6-best-western-premier-dua-sentral/) we were pretty stuffed already.

The Macallan Perfect Serve is a glass of Macallan served with an ice ball, crafted from The Macallan’s very own copper ice ball machine. The drink was inspired by the Japanese tradition of serving hand-carved ice with ultra-premium spirits. Macallan, Famous Grouse, and Highland Park are owned by Edrington and exclusively distributed by AsiaEuro in Malaysia.
.
The Three-Girl LED Water Drum Band gave a stunning performance!
Dennis Lau was giving his usual energetic and upbeat performance!
Andy and his partner in crime

Lots of Macallan going around served by some cute promoter girls

Test Drive – Nissan Almera Tuned by Impul

[Review]
I attended the Nissan Almera launch back in October last year (you can read about that here – https://timchew.net/2012/10/31/nissan-almera-launched-in-malaysia/) and the nice folks at Edaran Tan Chong Motors decided to lend me the Nissan Almera tuned by Impul to test-drive for a weekend.
The Nissan Almera is a B-segment locally assembled sedan and boasted class-leading cabin room and boot space for a car it’s size. Well it was time to put it to the test.
.
My model for this shoot is none other than MHB’s Wan Ting aka SnowXwhite
The Nissan ALMERA is built on an all-new global “V” (versatile) platform which utilizes a lightweight yet rigid body.
IMPUL Aerokit – The IMPUL front bumper spoiler, new radiator grille, side skirts, rear bumper spoiler and rear boot spoiler adds a very sporty and stylish appearance to the Almera.
IMPUL Blast 2 Exhaust Muffler – Enjoy a low growl thanks to the IMPUL sports exhaust muffler.
The IMPUL radiator grill instantly sets this baby apart!
Tuned by IMPUL baby! IMPUL is the famous Japanese automotive aftermarket company founded by Nissan’s factory driver, Kazuyoshi Hoshino and exclusively produces aftermarket parts for Nissans, such as bodykits, engine components and wheels.
LED Wing Mirror Signal Lights (optional accessory)
halogen headlights
Here’s what they look like in the dark! Very cool indeed!
The rear view
Sporty combination tail-lights
IMPUL HS-06 Alloy Wheel (16”) – Looking very stylish in silver and black with a matte finish. The alloy materials and Super Cast process used by IMPUL decreases the weight of the wheels by 20% – 30%, while improving driving performance without compromising quality and safety. The road to my house has some sharp turns but the Almera didn’t complain at all. (Consumers can also choose to upgrade to a 17” IMPUL Aura SX-10 alloy wheel for a fee.)
Powerplant & Transmission
The Almera is powered by a 1.5 litre, 4-cylinder, In-line, DOHC with CVTC (Continuously Variable-Valve Timing Control) and Drive-by-Wire Technology. Max power is 102ps at 6,000rpm while max torque is 139Nm at 4,000rpm.
The engine is either mated to a manual 5-speed gearbox (E variant) or auto 4-speed gearbox (V and VL variants).
Suspension & Handling
The front is independent MacPherson struts with stabilizer bar while the rear is torsion beam. (FYI the standard Almera comes with 15” steel rims with full cover (E variant) or 15” 7-spoke alloy rim (V and VL variants) with 185 / 65 R15 tyres.
IMPUL Super Shock Suspension System – The system consists of shock absorbers and coil springs, which have been specially tuned by IMPUL engineers. The ride height is lowered by 30mm with increased lateral force support for more agile handling and distinct road contact.
Safety
The brakes are equipped with ABS, EBD and a brake assist system, while there are SRS airbags for the driver and front passenger.
Now to the interior.
Wan Ting very at home with the car
I was surprised at the amount of leg room at the back. The driver’s seat was adjusted to accommodate my height (5′ 10″) and look at the remaining room at the back!
Sport Pedal (A/T variants only) – optional accessory
LED Stainless Steel Kicking Plant – something usually found on luxury cars – the stainless steel kicking plate protects the car’s interior and is lit by LEDs when the car lights are on. (optional accessory)
Chrome door handles – V and VL variants only
The centre multi-function display includes the radio which is also the multimedia navigation console that displayed the view from the rear view camera, and is also a DVD player which has iPod connectivity, USB and Bluetooth capabilities.
The instrument panels at night
Automatic aircon (VL variant only)
I found this feature very very useful indeed!
And the GPS navigation was handy too. Relatively easy to set the destination and the map was pretty up to date.
The start/ stop button just adds to the coolness factor
The instrument cluster also includes a Multi Information Display while the steering wheel has Illuminated Audio Controls.
The boot is a spacious 490 litres with a wide open area capable of carrying up to 4 golf bags.
.
All in all I thought the Almera was good value for money and surprisingly roomy! Good for cruising around the city.
The on-the-road price (inclusive of insurance, road tax, registration fee and ownership claim fee) for Peninsular Malaysia will be as follows:

Grade

Variant

Price (RM)

E

1.5 M/T

66,813.50

V

For more personalisation, customers can opt for the exclusive ALMERA Optional Accessories. Premium accessories include the on board multimedia navigation console (with a rear view, DVD player, iPod connectivity, USB and Bluetooth capabilities), LED kicking plate and luxurious leather seats.
Sport accessories by IMPUL Motor Racing Development, which have been tailored specifically to suit Malaysian roads, are also available. The complete Tuned by IMPUL package is available for all grades for an additional RM9,500.00.

Hermès re-opens its Store at Pavilion, Kuala Lumpur

[Luxury Fashion]

MHB’s Stephanie Lim and I headed over to the Hermès boutique in Pavilion Kuala Lumpur for its reopening on 14th December 2017. The newly renovated store has a total retail space of 254 square meters, and the new spacious layout works to present the richness of the Parisian house’s 16 metiers, and for the first time an area dedicated to the home universe. Under the artistic direction of Denis Montel, RDAI, the Parisian architectural agency, was responsible for the creation and opening of the space, as for all Hermès stores worldwide.
Walking in, you’ll be welcomed by lots of natural light thanks to the glass back façade, which works to adds a cheery and warm ambience to the store. The lacquered metal square claustra, acts as a filter and extends from floor to ceiling, creating shadowing effects throughout the space breaking up and punctuating different sections.
Through the main entrance, one encounters the house’s signature ex-libris set on a ‘Faubourg’ pattern stoneware mosaic floor contrasting with the deep brown teak floor evoking traditional Malaysian flooring. The discovery of Hermès craftsmanship and its exceptional know-how begins with a large space dedicated to women’s silk and on the right jewellery accessories and perfume.
The men’s ready to wear, masculine silk and home collections are also on the same floor. Take the stairs at the back up to the second floor (or enter through the store’s second entrance on the top floor) and you’ll visit the leather, jewellery and watch departments, which also houses the equestrian collection, women’s ready to wear and a comfortable private VIP space at the back.
The constant requirement for the finest quality has always been Hermès’ priority.  Since its establishment in 1837, six generations of enterprising and passionate artisans have contributed to spreading its values: a savoir-faire built on the application of highly precise and skilled crafts to the finest materials, the love for beautiful objects created to last over time and the spirit of constant innovation. A family owned company, Hermès is managed by Chief Executive Officer, Axel Dumas, and its artistic direction is led by Pierre-Alexis Dumas, both sixth generation family members.
One interesting fact that was shared with us was that each and every store manager also acts as the “buyer” for the store, and thus is responsible for which products are available. This is to create a personalised service to cater to the store’s customers and clientele which differs based on geographical location. The newly renovated store also comes with some nifty features such as the hidden retractable handbag holder which is built into the display tables.

The Hermes boutique in Pavilion KL is located at:
Lot 2.17.00, Level 2, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur,
168, Jalan Bukit Bintang,
Bukit Bintang,
55100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Telephone: +603-2142 0048

Test Drive – Nissan Grand Livina 1.6L Tuned by Impul

[Review]
As many of you know, I’m a person who likes cars and this has intensified further after working for TOPGEAR and Malaysian EVO magazines in the past. I particularly like hot hatches and sedans although every now and then I do test drive SUVs and MPVs. The nice folks over at Nissan Malaysia came a-calling and asked me if I wanted to test drive the 7-seater Nissan Grand Livina for the weekend.
The Grand Livina? Isn’t that an MPV? Then they went on to mention that it was tuned by IMPUL and I duly accepted! An MPV tuned by IMPUL? This was going to be interesting…
The Impul team has given a makeover to the Grand Livina and the front grille shows just that with the Impul logo in place of the Nissan logo.
The Impul aerokit and lowered ride height gives the Grand Livina a really sporty and aggresive look
The swept back headlamps add to the dynamic design
Impul bodyart on the door panels!
Impul aerokit skirting all around which includes the rear wing spoiler
The Nissan logo is retained at the rear
But the Impul logo is very obvious too!
The stainless steel exhaust muffler is part of the Impul package too and adds a low rumbling note to the drive!
Signal lamps on the wing mirrors
The Impul package departs from the usual 15″ rims replacing them with the 17″ Impul Aura SX-10 rims and 205/45 R17 tyres instead which definitely offer more grip and better handling.
Powerplant & Transmission
This Grand Livina is powered by a 1.6L DOHC, 16-Valve, 4-Cylinder in-line engine with drive-by-wire technology which puts out 105 horses and has a maximum torque of 150Nm at 4,400 rpm.
The transmission is a 5-speed manual although it’s also available in a 4-speed electronically controlled 4-speed automatic with lock-up torque converter version.
Suspension & Handling
The front is independent MacPherson struts with stabilizer bar while the rear is torsion beam. (FYI the standard Grand Livina comes with 15” alloy rims utilizing 185/65 R15 tyres)
The suspension is relatively stiff which provides a great ride but not at a total expense of comfort. Body roll is barely noticeable and it’s the result of the Impul suspension system which consists of upgraded shock absorbers and springs that lower the ride-height by 25mm.
The Grand Livina uses a monocoque body which is lightweight and has high rigidity resulting in better handling of the vehicle.
Safety
The brakes are equipped with ABS, EBD and a brake assist system, while there are SRS airbags for the driver and front passenger.
Now to the interior.
The interior is roomy which is especially useful for bigger people such as myself
Ample leg room for the passengers
See the strap hanging down from the seats (which by the way can be adjusted into a reclining position for the comfort of the passengers)?
One simple tug and you can fold down the last row of seats to make room for luggage. You can even fold down the centre row of seats if you have large size items
The dash and centre console is pretty standard
The meters were pretty sporty though
The radio control are easily within reach of the driver
The test unit I was given to drive had the autograph of Impul President Mr. Kazuyoshi Hoshino, the former Formula One racer and now boss of Team Calsonic Impul. Coolness!!!
Well definitely an interesting vehicle and I would say it’s suitable for the family man/ young mommy who’s looking for a more spirited drive which is something you won’t get from the normal MPV. Who says you can’t be a parent and look cool at the same time?
The Impul package will set you back RM10,700.00 on top of the price of the Grand Livina which is:
1.6L (Manual) Comfort – RM97,500.00
1.6L (Auto) Comfort – RM100,500.00
1.8L (Auto) – RM109,500.00
*prices are on-the-road with insurance (Peninsular Malaysia) and comes with a 3-year or 100,000km warranty (whichever comes first)

Samsung Galaxy A34 5G Camera Review

A photo along the bustling Jalan Bukit Bintang in downtown Kuala Lumpur shot with the normal camera mode to set the nighttime baseline
If you haven’t yet read my feature regarding the launch of the Samsung Galaxy A34 5G in Malaysia, you can do so here – https://timchew.net/2023/04/01/samsung-galaxy-a54-5g-and-a34-5g-now-available-for-pre-order-in-malaysia/
This feature only includes the photos taken with the phone during some events that I attended recently utilising various camera settings and modes. None of the photos have been altered or edited in any way.
Now I must remind you that the Galaxy A34 is in Samsung’s A range of smartphones). Yes, this model is the second highest spec offering in the A range (in the absence of a clearly defined mid-tier range, I personally regard the Galaxy A34 and A54 to be Samsung’s mid-tier offerings) but still a RM1,xxx (below RM2,000) range phone therefore don’t expect the performance of the cameras to be anything near the flagship S series (the Galaxy S23 Ultra has amazing cameras). If you’re serious about photography or gaming then get a Galaxy S series smartphone.
Shot along Jalan Bukit Bintang. Pretty crisp and clear during the daytime which is quite expected of most smartphones these days. But the real test of a camera is in low light conditions.
A photo along Jalan Bukit Bintang this time closer to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur and shot using the Night mode which I found to be a tad too bright therefore this was the only photo I shot using the Night mode. (Some post-editing to increase the contrast should easily fix this.)
Brought the phone along with me to the Malaysia Auto Show 2023. The halls were well lit and the camera focus was spot on.

Proton 40th anniversary celebration and launch of the Proton X90 by our right honorable Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
I was seated in the media section 6 rows from the stage

Shot this using 2x on normal mode closer to the stage during the photo op
Our right honorable Prime Minister in the driver’s seat checking out the latest model by Proton. Wished that I had the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s powerful tele cam to zoom in on our PM (hint hint Samsung Malaysia).
Hennessy X.O x Kim Jones event at Pavilion Bukit Jalil. The lighting was pretty good but I had to deal with strobe lights.

Using the Portrait mode
The Portrait mode allows you to apply various filters when you post-edit like this subject colour filter which helps your subject stand out
This was another cool Portrait filter which is very useful when the background is very dirty like the Mortlach tasting that I attended

At the small park at The Stories of Taman Tunku
Enjoying a cold Guinness on a hot day. Shot using portrait mode.
Captured this photo using ambient light.
Dinner at Graze, Hilton Kuala Lumpur
Shot using 2x on normal mode
The colours are quite vibrant thanks to the AI. I had a video light with me to assist with additional lighting during the food shots as the restaurant had a dim and romantic ambiance.
Shot using 2x zoom on the normal mode
Shot using 2x zoom on the normal mode
I captured dinner photos during a recent social media content creation shoot at an Italian restaurant. Our principal photographer Andy Kho brought along his video lights so the lighting was adequate. Shot this on normal mode with 2x zoom. The AI recognized this as food and bumped up the colour vibrancy saving me the effort to post edit.

Overall I would say that the cameras on the Galaxy A34 5G are more than adequate for day to day use. With a little editing, you could probably make the photos look even better.

MIGF 2013 Review – The Restaurant @ The Club, Saujana Resort

[MIGF Special Feature]
Conne and I headed over to try the Malaysia International Gourmet Festival (MIGF) 2013 menu at The Restaurant which is a modern European establishment nestled in the The Club, Saujana Resort which is the renovated former VIP wing of the Saujana Hotel which is located right beside it.
The Restaurant was participating in the Malaysia International Gourmet Festival 2013 (MIGF2013) for the 4th consecutive year, and Executive Chef Alexander was all ready to dazzle us with his creations.
The theme for this year’s MIGF is “Cool Chefs! Cooking with Attitude!” and Chef Alexander (who is younger than me) took up the challenge to deliver dishes that exude sophistication and suaveness. Wow…I know guys who exude suaveness but food?
This was going to be interesting…
.
We got there at dusk but there was just enough light left for us to snap a couple of pics before dinner. Of course having the Leica C with it’s F2.0 lens helped greatly as well. Both The Club at Saujana and the Saujana Hotel are on the edge of a beautiful lake with a fountain.
My partner-in-crime for the night
The Club at Saujana has it’s own large swimming pool.
Beautiful palm tree-lined pathways line the hotel
No this is NOT the swimming pool but a pond with some beautiful landscaped greenery around it. In fact I thought it was really nice that there was a lot of greenery around it the hotel.
And the pond is right next to the al-fresco dining area of The Restaurant and it adds a nice calming ambience. However as the night we visited was rather warm we decided to dine indoors in the cool aircon.
Now this is the interior of The Restaurant which has dark wood contrasting against the white table cloths and shiny cutlery. Stylish yet inviting and I think a nice romantic place to bring your partner.
On one side of the wall right after the open kitchen is the wine rack where a multitude of wines are stored. Don’t know much about wines? Ask the server there to recommend you a good one to go with your meal.
Right at the back is a private room that fits 20 pax and can be closed off for added privacy. See the glowing blue table? There’s a mini-open kitchen behind it where the chef can show off his skills to the diners.
This is the table setting for the specially prepared MIGF menu.
Now to dinner. An Amuse Bouche to start off the meal.
Salmon Carpaccio – Horseradish Panna Cotta, Marinated Radish, Yuzu Sorbet. Salmon served in three different styles! There was the Salmon Tartar with and onions, and a little piece of salmon which had some herbs encrusting it over the salmon carpaccio. The Horseradish Panna Cotta really added some zing while the Yuzu Sorbet (the thing that looks like a scoop of green ice cream) provided some quite interesting citrus flavours. Unlike any citrus fruit I’ve eaten before actually. The thinly sliced radish added a difference of texture when eaten with the salmon. Certainly an interesting dish and a creative way to showcase so many flavours in one dish!
Foiegrass Crème – Foiegrass, Duck Roll, Granny Smith Apple – had to borrow this pic from The Restaurant as for the life of me I have no idea where my own pic went. In the glass was a scoop of foie gras crème (think really rich ice crème) and smoked duck on top of a jelly made out of the Granny Smith apples. Wow! The richness of the foie gras was balanced out with the saltiness of the smoked duck and the sweetness of the jelly with all three having different textures. On the other side was a piece of smoked duck rolled around some foie gras mousse and a roll of smoked duck on top of a cracker, and the whole thing was topped off with delicate slices of Granny Smith apples. Please sir, can I have some more?
Grilled Hokkaido Scallop – Sweet corn Velouté, Young Sweet Corn. Scallops in a corn sauce? Sounds off right but this was a really REALLY hearty and heart-warming dish! The sweetness of the sweet corn sauce (which I thought was more like a really delicious soup) went so well with the scallops that even I was amazed. And as Chef Alexander likes to play with different textures there were pieces of young sweet corn (like baby corn) in the sauce.
Pan-Fried Seabass – Bouilla Baisse Sauce, Garlic Moussline, Ratatouille Vegetable. I loved the crispy skin of the seabass and the fish went so well with the sauce. I avoided the garlic though as it was our date night so well you get the picture. Everytime I eat Ratatouille I keep thinking of the little mouse cooking in the kitchen in the animated motion picture of the same name.
We had the Anakena Sauvignon Blanc to complement the fish.
Smoked Rack of Lamb & Confit Lamb Shoulder – Eggplant, Potato Fondant, Backed Potato Strudel. I absolutely hate it when restaurants overcook my meat and so I was very pleased to see the gorgeous pink colour of the perfectly cooked lamb rack. The baked potato strudle was a surprise I used it to mop up any remnants of the delicious sauce. The lamb was juicy and flavourful while the little crispy eggplant rolls provided a difference in texture! Not a single morsel bar the bones were left on this plate by the time I was done with it.
We opted for a glass of Chilean Merlot to complement the lamb – not too spicy or overpowering as to overwhelm the lamb.

Ultimate Chocolate Brownie – Iced Milk Mousse, Nougat Ice Cream, Berries. We were very fortunate that Chef Alexander had some time to personally complete the dessert in front of us!

When they said “ultimate” they really meant it! Rich flavours balanced out by the dark earthy taste of the chocolate with bursts of acidity from the berries. This dessert is nothing short of decadent!
.
BTW did you manage to guess the cold element in each dish?
Chef Alexander sat down with us after dinner and explained:
Salmon Carpaccio – the yuzu sorbet
Foiegrass Crème – the scoop of foie gras creme (which was really like a rich ice cream!)
Grilled Hokkaido Scallop – the scallops are harvested from the cold deep waters of Hokkaido, Japan
Pan-Fried Seabass – seabass is usually found in cold, deep waters!
Smoked Rack of Lamb & Confit Lamb Shoulder – this one was quite tricky! Potatoes! Grown in summer, harvested in autumn and consumed during the cold winter months!
Ultimate Chocolate Brownie – the ice milk mousse
.
I suggest that you only go for the full 6-course menu if you’re a really big eater as even I who can eat a lot was really stuffed by the time we got to dessert (and mind you, my partner in crime had the seabass while I had the lamb as we couldn’t finish both on our own).
This was one of the best and most satisfying meals I’ve had and I can’t wait to see what Chef Alexander Waschl has up his sleeve for the next special menu.
We took a walk around the grounds and over to the lake after dinner. It’s pretty nice if it’s a cool night and if there are not many mozzies around. Definitely a nice place to bring a date or your partner.

The Babes of the Malaysian Moto GP 2014

[Women]

I’ve been very very blessed to be hosted by Marlboro M-Scape in the exclusive VIP Ducati lounge in the Paddock Club at SIC for Moto GP a couple of times and I must say that it is the ultimate way to watch Moto GP. In the lounge were lots of activities including a visit by the riders, games, quiz to win exclusive merchandise, and also lots of delicious food and drinks. Look out for my post on that wonderful experience coming soon.
In the meantime, here are some hotties I managed to capture when I was walking around the mall are in SIC. Enjoy!

Photos were shot using the new Sony a5100.

A Date with the (2017) Honda Jazz 1.5L V (Car Review) and New Price List with SST (Effective 1 September 2018)

[Automotive News]

The nice folks over at Honda Malaysia passed me their (2017) Honda Jazz (facelift) V variant which was launched last year. As it’s been a while since I did a review of a Honda vehicle, I thought having a nippy and compact Jazz to zip around in for a couple of days would certainly be a nice change over my usual C segment car.
The (2017) Honda Jazz Petrol is powered by the 1.5L i-VTEC engine coupled with Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) which was developed under Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology. The engine provides 120 PS at 6,600 RPM and 145Nm at 4,600 RPM – which is quite similar to the City. According to Honda Malaysia, the combined powertrain in this “Energy Efficient Vehicle” certified vehicle provides a fuel-efficient drive with the “ECON Mode” enabled although I must say that I left it off most of the time as I prefer a perkier drive.
Aesthetics wise, there’s a New Chrome Front Grille; New Front and Rear Bumper Design, Dual Tone Colour Alloy Wheel, and LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL). Features like the Push Start Button and Smart Entry; ECON button, and Reverse Camera also come with this variant.

There’s adequate space in the boot for luggage, while the ULTRA Seats can be configured to 4 modes (Utility, Long, Tall and Refresh) to carry long, tall or bulky items.

LED Daytime Running Lights

Half Leather (combination of smooth leather + fabric) seats
Surprisingly roomy in the rear even with my seat positioned to fit my 178cm height!

Inside, there’s the Paddle Shift which I love as I get to control the gears manually, Cruise Control and Half-Leather seats, touch panel auto air conditioning, as well as audio, cruise control and telephone controls on the steering wheel. The new 6.8” Display Audio is very fast and responsive and comes with Bluetooth and HDMI connectivity to your smartphone, while also being linked to the multi-angle reverse camera.
Safety wise, the New Jazz carries a 5-Star ASEAN NCAP safety rating with Brake Assist (BA) and Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) are available across all variants. The V variant comes with 6 Airbags, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), Emergency Stop Signal (ESS) and Hill Start Assist (HSA). There are also ISO Fix points for child seats.

There are nine (9) yes NINE cup holders in the Jazz!
The driver’s side cup holder is best suited for cold drinks thanks to its location right in front of the aircon vent!

The New Jazz 1.5 V is available in 5 colours namely Modern Steel Metallic, Lunar Silver Metallic, Carnival Red, Taffeta White and Crystal Black Pearl. The warranty for the New Jazz Petrol is 5 years with unlimited mileage at 10,000km service intervals at any of the 91 authorised Honda dealers nationwide.
The Honda Jazz 1.5L V retails for RM83,633.00 (OTR without Insurance). BTW you can view the maintenance charges online at https://www.honda.com.my/uploads/pdf/maintenance/eff_sept18/JAZZ_2WM_1.5_2017YM.pdf
The Honda Jazz is a popular Honda model here in Malaysia, and after my time with it I can certainly see why. It’s incredibly easy to park while the combination of fuel-efficiency, together with a large comfortable interior that can be adapted for different loads, coupled with an affordable price-point and maintenance costs makes this a value for money option indeed!

Honda Malaysia Announces New Price Effective 1 September 2018
