I didn't do any voice training with mine and it seems to work very well and I don't think it's got a number wrong yet. It still impresses me when the phone rings, the radio cuts out and a call is announced over the cars speakers.

When I picked up my Outlander I was given several typed sheets of paper and was told that someone at Mitsubishi UK had redone the phone pairing instructions to make them easier to understand than those in the handbook.

I have a question what happen to your Honda HR-V 202 1.6 Lsi CVT?

It sound like a New Honda but it is just a Civic. I think the replacement for gruesome CRX.

Handsfree phone or Bluetooth?

My opinion.

I rather use my bluetooth head set than using the Mitsu Bluetooth or rather use the speakerphone on my cell.

Why because I hate pressing that button on the steering wheel it just distract me too much doing 80 mph on 95 can get pretty dangerous and I rarely drive less than 55 mph.

Don't believe me... try doing it on 80 mph and you will know what I mean.
You have to press talk then unpress to listen to the other person on the line.

What if the government passed a law banning nationwide use of cell phone on cars.
Do you think the handsfree phone will be affected. I guess it will and it really could kill someone using cell phone while driving especially if you drive a manual.

The same with GPS system I hate those things it just bugs the hell out of me.
Especially I have a good sense of direction and never get lost.

Do we really need to see where we going? I rather have DVD on the Mitsu if they can make it next time especially getting stuck on the traffic for 5 hours doing 5 mph but not driving 80 mph.

what do you think Sebba?

i sold my HR-V in september. it took 12 hours to sell it: listed it in 9pm and got a call in 9am.

last night a picked up my 2008 CR-V 2.0 Executive Navi. fully loaded.

the Outlander i had been waiting for 6 months arrived in november but the black colour was so beatiful the dealer decided to keep it for himself offering me a blue one for replacement. i was shaken so bad i bought a CR-V the same day - a car i never even had thought of.

i will eventually still buy the Outlander too some time in spring, i need another one as well.
