What about the lack of blind spot monitoring and RCTA? Are you annoyed it doesn't have one. My wife's car has both. I don't really use it for blind spots, I still look over my shoulder when changing lanes. What is kinda useful is if you indicate before looking, the car beeps so I immediately know there is a car there (before looking over my shoulder). Just wonder whether I will feel like I'm missing out for the duration of my car ownership.
With the radio unit - is it just the initial load when you start the car that's slow? Or is the response generally slow (ie. when pressing buttons it takes a while for the system to respond?)
Also, I have a tradein so it's hard to gauge value and we have only been talking changeover price here... but if I calculate the tradein to be smack bang in the middle of the redbook tradein range, it comes out to be about $36.5k driveaway for the base model MY19.5 with DAP and metallic paint. Is this a good price?
Never had a car with blindspot sensor so i don't miss it and reversing is no issue i drive a 28 ton truck all day reversing out of driveways a car is no challenge at all lol
It' just a little slow to load i think because rooboy and i have turned on the traffic updates by obd11 once loaded its very quick with no lag (keep a microfibre cloth handy the screen loves to collect fingerprints)
Think about going the premium model you get the excellent l.e.d headlights with the double drl that everyone wants
power drivers seat and a few other goodies also the sound and vision pakage is very good the sound system is just fantastic and the drivers screen plus the 9.2 inch upgrade in the center make the car feel much more premuim
