@elvinsiew - in the UK it's an option so maybe it is for you too - did you spec it?

RE: Blind spot monitoring

As soon as you fire up the engine you know if you have BLIS, on the upper outer corner of each mirror you will get a tiny orange spot as the system goes through a self check. Once on the move if you have BLIS there will be an orange icon of two cars passing on the mirror surface. Without powering up the engine you can tell if the car has BLIS as there is a small opaque box on the mirror surface, here is what it looks like on my car - the opaque area is just belwo my thumb and the iPhone

Just checked with the dealer, unfortunately this function is not in the malaysia spec. Apparently the ministry of road transport do not approve the function. Rediculous!

RE: Blind spot monitoring

I wouldn't say it was an essential option,even for a coupe. The factory issue wing mirrors may be huge but they cover the rear quarters vision pretty well

+1
the side view mirrors are way more than enough that you don't need the Blind spot monitoring system.
