Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

Went to showroom and saw my car. Excited! cant wait to get my hands on. Did PDI to an extent but not completely. Same here, car was full of dust. It's March '12 manufactured.

Tyres are Michelin. I saw 1 XMT(mine) and 3 SELECT in stockyard and 1 SELECT in showroom. Out of which mine and other two SELECT had Michelin tyres and others had GoodYear. Happy for the same.

Super Excited! Waited for 8 months but finding it difficult to wait for 4 more days.

Yup thanks! One UT and one white.

What is the real advantage of having Michelins? Can you please explain?

Well, its just what i read from other ownership reports . They have very less road noise and they are fuel efficiency tyres which may result in good mileage. They last long too.
P.S. - this is what i heard and found while i researched about it during last year. They costs much higher too.

Thanks much Akhil! These things even I read it from various posts like what you say, last year and I wanted to know if there is anything else better of using Michelins.

I got JAZZ Select in UT in flat 20days here in Hyderabad from Green Honda!!!

Initially I booked Jazz UT in base variant on 22nd March. I was told that the next lot will be coming on 9-10th April, and if any booking is cancelled, I will be offered the same as per my serial number. I checked the status on 12th April to find that no Base Jazz has come, whereas, the four JAZZ Select (UT, RR, AS and white) were available to grab along with one Jazz-X in white. I quickly grabbed JAZZ Select UT.

I have taken the delivery, and still in shock that the JAZZ is with me so quickly. The vehicle is April made only, and the tyres are Michelin. Free Teflon coating was given to me along with 20% discount in insurance from the list price and that too without asking. Overall experience has been pleasant with the dealer.

Congrats to krisheleo and akhilgopalg for getting your dream car after hard wait.

Welcome and Congrats Ovais! Thanks for your wishes!!

I really dont know how to express my frustration after reading your post but Im happy for you buddy.

Sad to say, by this April 24th I complete 8 months of wait time. Gone through lots for disappointments and false commitments. Anyway, Im stopping here, its my problem.

Good for you, wait time is mere few days that too with freebies. You are one lucky guy! I never heard anyone saying that when it comes to Jazz. Safe drive and start your ownership thread soon. Congrats again n enjoy!! :))

@harin: You are really one lucky guy. Only your UT has Michelin. After you left showroom, yours was taken to showroom, Ajith said for regn purposes. UT looks good. So, you getting on Monday

Thanks mate.. Yes me too did the PDI on 21st evening, it was getting dark around 5:30 PM, I checked the tyres first, 4 are the same and was Michelin, then the guy taken us to the yard in a Brio, and we liked Brio also very much. Just taken an overall look and summary as follows

1. spare wheel and tools - OK
2. Reclining seat, foldings and all types of seat movements - OK
3. Electrically adjustable OVRMS - OK
4. AC getting cool faster, power steering, Power windows, door locks, central lock, power window lock, doors -OK
5. Moved a bit front and reverse a bit.
6. Engine compartment it was neat even though the vehicle is full of dust.
7. STEREO FM only we tested and maximum volumes and it was neat with good clarity, the sound was audible outside when we put maximum after closing all windows/doors. The sound quality was neat.
8. All lights/indicators/lamps etc all fine.
9. The cabin was super silent, not even anything when we raised and moved the vehicle.
10. No visible scratches/damages found.

Overall we couldn't find anything negative....

Not sure the status of registration, it was supposed to be completed by 21st evening but SA told that I will be getting the car by 23rd evening. Ordered Under body and Teflon coating there itself. Also Ordered B2B insurance, which is ~4K extra than the normal insurance.

@Hari, @Akhil - What do you say guys, should I go for Teflon and underbody coating while taking delivery? Im planning to do it during my first service. Any advice/suggestions appreciated.

Re: New Honda Jazz 2011 Launched at Killer Price

@Krishleo: If you are doing both now, its better as we can prevent anything the maximum.

Regarding under body coating, you can do it during your fist service, as they will wash and remove all the dirt accumulated so far and then only they will apply. Even now also the vehicle has gone for registration/test drives etc, they will wash/clean and then only apply. Both almost same. But better to do it.

Teflon, according to me, do it before it gets exposed to sun or any chemicals (acid rain) etc as they give warranty for the same for atleast one year.

Finally according to me do it as early as possible.

So, you did yesterday evening or 20th evening? 20th i suppose. Because, after we have done PDi, your car was taken back to showroom and i saw it at showroom while leaving.Anyways, good that no problems are there. Btw, my advice - ;look again while taking delivery. Seen a white brio at display? It has scratches on driver side-front door . God knows if the customer will find it out.I think it was caused while it was left there for display. Teflon and Under-body at how much? Got corporate. Yesterday they said no corporate offers now for Jazz.

@Hari, @Akhil - What do you say guys, should I go for Teflon and underbody coating while taking delivery? Im planning to do it during my first service. Any advice/suggestions appreciated.

Opt for it now. Opt it only if you get some offers. This was said to me directly by my SA. If we opt anything now, they will provide offers as much as they can. Later, no discounts. So, i suggest you do both, if you get a discount. +1 to Harin. Teflon is a must have before delivery, at-least for such a premium car. Even if you are doing Teflon, bargain for discounts and say that you have waited too long and point out that other dealers are giving offers to customers who have waited this long. P.S. -This is what i said to SA. But, worked only partly..
Btw, you getting corporate discount?

Alright, lemme check with SA. How much discount where you able to bargain?

No corporate discount.

@Hari & @Akhil: You guys are getting anything as freebies apart from discounts?
