Hi all, I have been waiting waiting waiting for this car, drooling over the pics on the UK site, because I want to update AND of course wondering what they will TAKE OUT of the overseas model to come up usual cut down OZ version.
OK I have to live without the lane detection, the voice activated sat nav, the collision detection braking system, the adaptive cruise control, ultrasonic security alarm, superlocks etc etc, BUT WHY does Honda Australia persist in calling that 3 button 'module' stuck to the A pillar an Integrated bluetooth!! gee it mutes the audio.... while you take your hands off the wheel to fiddle with it.. It must really cost a fortune to ship the steering wheel integrated module to Australia (Sat Nav Luxury model at least).. In my present model that thing wasnt even available BECAUSE I had Sat Nav. Why cant they even allow the fully integrated overseas version as an option?? Yes it may seem petty but hmm seems to me that mobile phones are something we take for granted these days and many new car models have real integrated units...
Luv Honda cars had 4 so far, and I do like the look and techno upgrade of this new one but the bluetooth 'misssing' oh yes is an option for someone to take the dash apart to install... really is ridiculous.
