QUOTE(kenji1903 @ Jun 13 2011, 06:09 PM) G has leather seats... supposedly better NVH for G... don't know... QUOTE(vexus @ Jun 13 2011, 11:02 PM) J, E and G base sound insulation to undercarriage, floor board, door panel, engine firewall is the same. Different only rear boot cover insulation and front hood insulation Thanks..Too many specs to compare for Vios. Especially when the prices vary so much between them. I guess if the built quality difference only differs between hood and boot insulation that one can be easily installed.

why get ps3? ps3 is one of the performance tire. it built with hard tire wall and also good for anti hydroplanning. this tire perform better during raining day as it is also built to cut through water.
as for xm1, it is much softer compare to ps3. xm1, is for comfort ride only. dont expect much for handling unless u prefer handing during comfort ride. if u want handling performance to attack corner, get ps3
potenze re080, sucks.. damn noisy. all my house toyota car is on michelin tires. only this vios still on stock tire.
as for tire size, the higher the profile, it get more comfortable.
for premacy LC, it is a quiet tire but wear tear too fast.

Quick question here. I'm sending my car for spray painting soon. Thinking of disarm/disable the immobiliser before sending over, so that i just give him the key without the remote. Any idea how to do so?
Thanks

I send my Vios for service at Toyota SC and the staff said time to change my stock maintanence free battery after he heard some cranking sound when switching on the engine. Later he uses an electronic device to check the battery and the indicator show as "Replace Battery"
But my car only 1.5 years new and I have not encountered any sign of needing to turn the ignition more than 2 times to start my engine.
How often you guys change your car battery ?
